Orchestrator available AIs dont match desired tests

[James Scollard]

I have created a client image that supports the following tests:

IPERFCLIENT = size:GP3-Medium, imageid1:cloudbench-client-base

IPERFSERVER = size:GP3-Medium, imageid1:cloudbench-client-base

NUTTCPCLIENT = size:GP3-Medium, imageid1:cloudbench-client-base

NUTTCPSERVER = size:GP3-Medium, imageid1:cloudbench-client-base

FIO = size:GP3-Medium, imageid1:cloudbench-client-base

When I spin up CB I get this list of available AIs:

(MYOPENSTACK) patternlist

AIDRSs with the following patterns can be attached to to this experiment (Cloud MYOPENSTACK) :

simplehd, simplefb, simpleyc, simplenw, simplenp, simpledt, simplecm

Digging into the descriptions I get the following from these AIs:

(MYOPENSTACK) patternshow

Usage: patternshow <cloud_name> <pattern> 

(MYOPENSTACK) patternshow MYOPENSTACK simpleyc

The AIDRS with the pattern simpleyc has the following configuration on experiment (Cloud MYOPENSTACK) :

type: cassandra_ycsb

max_ais: 8000

iait: uniformIXIXI120I180

lifetime: uniformIXIXI600I900

load_level: 4

load_duration: 60

(MYOPENSTACK) patternshow MYOPENSTACK simplenw

The AIDRS with the pattern simplenw has the following configuration on experiment (Cloud MYOPENSTACK) :

type: nullworkload

max_ais: 8000

iait: uniformIXIXI60I180

lifetime: uniformIXIXI200I300

load_level: uniformIXIXI1I3

load_duration: uniformIXIXI40I60

(MYOPENSTACK) patternshow MYOPENSTACK simplenp

The AIDRS with the pattern simplenp has the following configuration on experiment (Cloud MYOPENSTACK) :

type: netperf

max_ais: 8000

iait: uniformIXIXI120I180

lifetime: uniformIXIXI500I600

load_level: 1

load_duration: uniformIXIXI40I60

(MYOPENSTACK) patternshow MYOPENSTACK simpledt

The AIDRS with the pattern simpledt has the following configuration on experiment (Cloud MYOPENSTACK) :

type: ibm_daytrader

max_ais: 8000

iait: uniformIXIXI120I180

lifetime: uniformIXIXI600I900

load_level: uniformIXIXI1I30

load_duration: uniformIXIXI90I120

(MYOPENSTACK) patternshow MYOPENSTACK simplecm

The AIDRS with the pattern simplecm has the following configuration on experiment (Cloud MYOPENSTACK) :

type: coremark

max_ais: 8000

iait: uniformIXIXI60I180

lifetime: uniformIXIXI500I600

load_level: uniformIXIXI1I3

load_duration: uniformIXIXI40I60

None of these AIs seem to perform any of the tests I have client images configured to run.  I only need these 3 tests right now.  

First, the list of available AIs is very small so one would assume that it is only listeding AIs that I have provided images for.  This is not the case.

Second, Not only are AIs showing up that I don't have images for, there are no AIs listed for the tests I actually want to run.

I am literally only concerned about running FIO, IPERF, and NUTTCP (not sure if this one is covered in that list because there doesn't seem to be any way to translate "simpleXY" to the VM_TEMPLATES name.  How do I configure and execute these tests?

Thanks.

What am i missing here?  This doesn't appear to be covered at all in the docs:  

https://github.com/ibmcb/cbtool/wiki/HOWTO:-Run-simple-experiments

How do I run an FIO test?

Thanks.

Hello James,

Please take a look at experiment 3 as an example (https://github.com/ibmcb/cbtool/wiki/HOWTO:-Run-simple-experiments), and make sure that the deployment of a single Virtual Application (or AI) of the type "fio" (i.e., "aiattach fio") works for you.

Regards,

Marcio

aiattach fio, aiattach nuttcp, etc. work.  typealter fio setting=value statements also work.  They just don't show up in the list of available AIs.

Thanks.
