Goals

  • Answer the following questions:
    • How much work is it to get the AT to pass a YAML configuration file to the LUTF python script
    • What's the name of the file that the AT monitors to know the progress and end of the test
    • Are there a minimum mandatory set of parameters that need to be in the result file in order for the AT to display the results on Maloo?

Discussion items

ItemNotes
Work for config
  • Lee suggested to modify the AT class structure to have a parent configuration class, the lustre configuration class inherits from it, then we can add one specific for the LUTF.
    • This will help to customize the operation for the LUTF
      • including monitoring the progress of the test
  • The timeline we'd be looking at is prior to the 2.12 release, which gives enough time to make the above change.
Creating a YAML file instead of setting environment variables
  • The AT has many configuration scripts. So one specific for the LUTF can be written, which creates a setup YAML file to pass to the script
  • The setup YAML file will define the result_dir: The directory where to put all the results file
The location of the script to execute
  • The LUTF is now integrated in the Lustre build. Specifically the test RPM. So when that gets installed on the node, then all the LUTF will be installed as well
    • Path to the installation is: /usr/lib64/lustre/tests/lutf
    • The script that the AT should run will be under: /usr/lib64/lustre/tests/lutf/python
  • Since we're creating a new AT config script for the LUTF the path can be set there.
cluster to run
  • The multi-rail scripts need nodes (VMs) with multiple interfaces
  • OUTSTANDING: We still don't know how much work it is to create those VMs and make them a part of the AT test resources.
  • We said that this is a separate work item from integrating the LUTF into the AT, since there are LUTF scripts that can run with one interface.
The name of the file the AT monitors for test progress
  • We said that with the AT sub-class for the LUTF we can customize how the AT monitors progress
  • Amir to give a proposal on how to monitor the LUTF test progress.
Displaying the results on Maloo
  • Amir to propose a format to display the results on Maloo
    • Will probably try to stick to how it's currently displayed to minimize the amount of work.

Action items

  • Amir Shehata Propose a way for the AT to monitor the LUTF tests
  • Amir Shehata Propose a format to display the LUTF test results on Maloo
  • Lee Ochoa, Charlie Olmstead What is required to create VMs with multiple interfaces (at least 3) to run the multi-rail LUTF tests?
  • Charlie Olmstead to create an epic and link it to the LUTF wiki to track progress and proposals.
