6 Bottlenecks Rubbos Installation Guide
7 **************************************
12 Rubbos is a bulletin board benchmark modeled after an online news forum like Slashdot.
13 It is an open source Middleware and an n-tier system model which
14 is used to be deployed on multiple physical node
15 to measure the whole performacne of OPNFV planform. for release B.
16 Rubbos can deploy the Apache, tomcat, and DB.
17 Based on the deployment, rubbos gives the pressure to the whole system.
18 When the system reaches to the peak, the throughput will not grow more.
19 This testcase can help to understand the bottlenecks of OPNFV plantform
20 and improve the performance of OPNFV platform.
24 There is a need to install some packages before running the rubbos,
25 gcc, gettext, g++, libaio1, libaio-dev, make and git are necessary.
26 When the rubbos runs on the OPNFV community continuous integration(CI)
27 system, the required packages are installed automately as shown in the
28 code repository, which is /utils/infra_setup/vm_dev_setup/packages.conf,
29 besides, the packages can be encapsulated in the images initially.
30 If someone wants to use rubbos locally, he/she has to install them by
31 hand, such as in ubuntu 14.04,
36 apt-get install gettext
38 How does Rubbos Integrate into Installers
39 =========================================
42 Rubbos has been successfully integrated into fuel and compass with NOSDN scenario
43 in OPNFV community CI system.
45 Heat is used to create 9 instances, which is shown in
46 /utils/infra_setup/heat_template/HOT_create_instance.sh, the 9 instances are used
47 for installing Apache, Tomcat, Mysql, Control, Benchmark and 4 Clients. The tools,
48 such as rubbos, sysstat, oprofile, etc, are installed in these instances to perform
49 the test, the test results are stored in the Benchmark instance initially, then they
50 are copied to the Rubbos_result instance, finally, the test results are transferred to
51 the community dashboard.
53 There's a need to store our pakages as large as M bytes or G bytes size, such as
54 the images, jdk, apache-ant, apache-tomcat, etc, the OPNFV community storage system,
55 Google Cloud Storage, is used, the pakages can be downloaded from
56 https://artifacts.opnfv.org/bottlenecks/rubbos.
60 If someone wants to run the rubbos in his own environment, he/she can keep to the following steps,
62 2.1 Start up instances by using heat, nova or libvert. In Openstack Environemnt,
63 the heat script can refer /utils/infra_setup/heat_template/HOT_create_instance.sh,
64 if the openstack doesn't support heat module,
65 the script /utils/infra_setup/create_instance.sh can be used.
66 Without Openstack, there's a way to set up instances by using libvert, the scripts are shown under
67 the directory /utils/rubbos_dev_env_setup.
69 The image can be downloaded from the community cloud storage
73 curl --connect-timeout 10 -o bottlenecks-trusty-server.img
74 http://artifacts.opnfv.org/bottlenecks/rubbos/bottlenecks-trusty-server.img
76 2.2 Ssh into the control node and clone the bottlenecks codes to the root directory.
80 git clone https://git.opnfv.org/bottlenecks /bottlenecks
82 2.3 Download the packages and decompress them into the proper directory.
86 curl --connect-timeout 10 -o app_tools.tar.gz
87 http://artifacts.opnfv.org/bottlenecks/rubbos/app_tools.tar.gz
88 curl --connect-timeout 10 -o rubbosMulini6.tar.gz
89 http://artifacts.opnfv.org/bottlenecks/rubbos/rubbosMulini6.tar.gz
93 tar zxf app_tools.tar.gz -C /bottlenecks/rubbos
94 tar zxf rubbosMulini6.tar.gz -C /bottlenecks/rubbos/rubbos_scripts
96 2.4 Ssh into the Control node and run the script
100 source /bottlenecks/rubbos/rubbos_scripts/1-1-1/scripts/run.sh
102 2.5 Check the test results under the directory /bottlenecks/rubbos/rubbos_results in
103 Control node. The results are stored in the format of xml,
104 move them to the brower chrome, then you can see the results.
106 Test Result Description
107 =======================
108 In OPNFV community, the result is shown in the following format
112 [{'client': 200, 'throughput': 27},
113 {'client': 700, 'throughput': 102},
114 {'client': 1200, 'throughput': 177},
115 {'client': 1700, 'throughput': 252},
116 {'client': 2200, 'throughput': 323},
117 {'client': 2700, 'throughput': 399},
118 {'client': 3200, 'throughput': 473}]
120 The results are transferred to the community database and a map is drawed on the dashboard.
121 Along with the growth of the number of the client, the throughput grows at first, then meets
122 up with a point of inflexion, which is caused by the bottlenecks of the measured system.
