Opensim conference: reX proposal & load testing (Fwd: [Opensim-dev] OpenSimulator Community Conference Needs Participants for Grid Load Test 7/2/13 @ Noon PDT)

[Toni Alatalo]

Hi,

Opensimulator folks are organizing 1st community conference in early
September, in-world on Opensimulator itself -- I find that's a great
idea.

I just submitted a proposal from a realXtend point of view, let's see
whether they find it appropriate or not (i.e. whether it is about
opensim or not):
https://github.com/realXtend/doc/blob/master/opensim2013/submission.txt

They organize a load test today for the grid where plan to host the
conference - I'm gonna be on the night train to Helsinki so probably
can't join but if some of you have a chance please do help them to get
load..

Generic info about the conf is at
http://conference.opensimulator.org/

Cheers,
~Toni

Hi folks,


We are planning a large-scale load test of the OpenSimulator Community
Conference grid on Tuesday, July 2, 2013 at Noon PDT and we need
members of the community to help push the conference grid to its
limits to test the capacity and performance of the simulator software
and hardware.


Anyone interested in the conference or the OpenSimulator software is
welcome to participate in the load test by making a jump from any
other hypergrid enabled OpenSimulator grid. The focus of this load
test will be fitting as many hypergrid participants on the keynote
regions of the conference grid as possible.


The OpenSimulator Community Conference grid is located in the
7000,7000 coordinate range, and the four keynote regions we’ll be
testing are:


cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 1

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 2

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 3

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 4


If you find that the first region you try is full please use the next
address on the list and so on.


For the purposes of this load test, feel free to log in with multiple
avatars, but please do not use bots, pcampbots, or other various
libomv based viewers since we are trying to test the conference grid
under conditions as close to the actual conference as possible. We
recommend a Third Party Viewer that can support voice and mesh, such
as Singularity, Firestorm, or Kokua.


Instructions if you already have a Hypergrid enabled account


If you already have an account on another OpenSimulator grid that is
hypergrid enabled, here are the steps to participate in the load test
on Tuesday:


1. Log into your account on your hypergrid enabled grid.


2. If necessary, navigate to a jump region that can reach a
destination in the 7000,7000 coordinate range. OSGrid provides public
jump regions for this purpose, see the list at
http://www.osgrid.org/index.php/hypergrid.


3. Open your map and search for one of the following destination regions:


cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 1

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 2

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 3

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 4


4. The map search should locate the destination region on the map,
then click the Teleport button. If you find that the first region you
try is full please use the next address on the list and so on.


Instructions if you need a Hypergrid enabled account


If you don’t already have an account on another OpenSimulator grid
that is hypergrid enabled, here are the steps to participate in the
load test on Tuesday:


1. Create an account on OSGrid at
http://www.osgrid.org/index.php/auth/register.


2. Download a TPV viewer supported by OSGrid from
http://www.osgrid.org/index.php/downloads and log into your account.


3. Open your map and search for one of the following destination regions:


cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 1

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 2

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 3

cc.opensimulator.org:8002:Keynote 4


4. The map search should locate the destination region on the map,
then click the Teleport button. If you find that the first region you
try is full please use the next address on the list and so on.


Thanks in advance for your help and we look forward to seeing a big
crowd on Tuesday!
