Immediate notification allows VNF managers +(VNFM) to process recovery actions promptly once a failure has occurred. + +Consistency of resource state is necessary to execute recovery actions +properly in the VIM. + +Ability to query host status gives VM owner the possibility to get +consistent state information through an API in case of a compute host +fault. + +The Doctor platform consists of the following components: + +* OpenStack Compute (Nova) +* OpenStack Telemetry (Ceilometer) +* OpenStack Alarming (Aodh) +* Doctor Inspector +* Doctor Monitor + +.. note:: + Doctor Inspector and Monitor are sample implementations for reference. + +You can see an overview of the Doctor platform and how components interact in +:numref:`figure-p1`. + +.. figure:: ./images/figure-p1.png + :name: figure-p1 + :width: 100% + + Doctor platform and typical sequence + +Detailed information on the Doctor architecture can be found in the Doctor +requirements documentation: +http://artifacts.opnfv.org/doctor/docs/requirements/05-implementation.html + +Use case +"""""""" + +* A consumer of the NFVI wants to receive immediate notifications about faults + in the NFVI affecting the proper functioning of the virtual resources. + Therefore, such faults have to be detected as quickly as possible, and, when + a critical error is observed, the affected consumer is immediately informed + about the fault and can switch over to the STBY configuration. + +The faults to be monitored (and at which detection rate) will be configured by +the consumer. Once a fault is detected, the Inspector in the Doctor +architecture will check the resource map maintained by the Controller, to find +out which virtual resources are affected and then update the resources state. +The Notifier will receive the failure event requests sent from the Controller, +and notify the consumer(s) of the affected resources according to the alarm +configuration. + +Detailed workflow information is as follows: + +* Consumer(VNFM): (step 0) creates resources (network, server/instance) and an + event alarm on state down notification of that server/instance + +* Monitor: (step 1) periodically checks nodes, such as ping from/to each + dplane nic to/from gw of node, (step 2) once it fails to send out event + with "raw" fault event information to Inspector + +* Inspector: when it receives an event, it will (step 3) mark the host down + ("mark-host-down"), (step 4) map the PM to VM, and change the VM status to + down + +* Controller: (step 5) sends out instance update event to Ceilometer + +* Notifier: (step 6) Ceilometer transforms and passes the event to Aodh, + (step 7) Aodh will evaluate event with the registered alarm definitions, + then (step 8) it will fire the alarm to the "consumer" who owns the + instance + +* Consumer(VNFM): (step 9) receives the event and (step 10) recreates a new + instance + +Test case +""""""""" + +Functest will call the "run.sh" script in Doctor to run the test job. + +Currently, only 'Apex' and 'local' installer are supported. The test also +can run successfully in 'fuel' installer with the modification of some +configurations of OpenStack in the script. But still need 'fuel' installer +to support these configurations. + +The "run.sh" script will execute the following steps. + +Firstly, get the installer ip according to the installer type. Then ssh to +the installer node to get the private key for accessing to the cloud. As +'fuel' installer, ssh to the controller node to modify nova and ceilometer +configurations. + +Secondly, prepare image for booting VM, then create a test project and test +user (both default to doctor) for the Doctor tests. + +Thirdly, boot a VM under the doctor project and check the VM status to verify +that the VM is launched completely. Then get the compute host info where the VM +is launched to verify connectivity to the target compute host. Get the consumer +ip according to the route to compute ip and create an alarm event in Ceilometer +using the consumer ip. + +Fourthly, the Doctor components are started, and, based on the above preparation, +a failure is injected to the system, i.e. the network of compute host is +disabled for 3 minutes. To ensure the host is down, the status of the host +will be checked. + +Finally, the notification time, i.e. the time between the execution of step 2 +(Monitor detects failure) and step 9 (Consumer receives failure notification) +is calculated. + +According to the Doctor requirements, the Doctor test is successful if the +notification time is below 1 second. diff --git a/docs/development/overview/functest_scenario/images/LICENSE b/docs/development/overview/functest_scenario/images/LICENSE new file mode 100644 index 00000000..21a2d03d --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/development/overview/functest_scenario/images/LICENSE @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ +Copyright 2017 Open Platform for NFV Project, Inc. and its contributors + +Open Platform for NFV Project Documentation License +=================================================== +Any documentation developed by the "Open Platform for NFV Project" +is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. +You should have received a copy of the license along with this.
