-Platform overview
-"""""""""""""""""
-
-Doctor platform provides these features since `Danube Release <https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/SWREL/Danube>`_:
-
-* Immediate Notification
-* Consistent resource state awareness for compute host down
-* Valid compute host status given to VM owner
-
-These features enable high availability of Network Services on top of
-the virtualized infrastructure. Immediate notification allows VNF managers
-(VNFM) to process recovery actions promptly once a failure has occurred.
-Same framework can also be utilized to have VNFM awareness about
-infrastructure maintenance.
-
-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 Networking (Neutron)
-* OpenStack Telemetry (Ceilometer)
-* OpenStack Alarming (AODH)
-* Doctor Sample Inspector, OpenStack Congress or OpenStack Vitrage
-* Doctor Sample Monitor or any monitor supported by Congress or Vitrage
-
-.. note::
- Doctor Sample Monitor is used in Doctor testing. However in real
- implementation like Vitrage, there are several other monitors supported.
-
-You can see an overview of the Doctor platform and how components interact in
-:numref:`figure-p1`.

-
-Running test cases
-""""""""""""""""""
-
-Functest will call the "doctor_tests/main.py" in Doctor to run the test job.
-Doctor testing can also be triggered by tox on OPNFV installer jumphost. Tox
-is normally used for functional, module and coding style testing in Python
-project.
-
-Currently, 'Apex', 'MCP' and 'local' installer are supported.
-
-
-Fault management 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 or Neutron
- port.
-
-* 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. In network failure case, also Neutron port is changed to down.
-
-* Controller: (step 5) sends out instance update event to Ceilometer. In network
- failure case, also Neutron port is changed to down and corresponding event is
- sent to Ceilometer.
-
-* Notifier: (step 6) Ceilometer transforms and passes the events to AODH,
- (step 7) AODH will evaluate events 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
-
-Fault management test case
-""""""""""""""""""""""""""
-
-Functest will call the 'doctor-test' command in Doctor to run the test job.
-
-The following steps are executed:
-
-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.
-
-Maintenance use case
-""""""""""""""""""""
-
-* A consumer of the NFVI wants to interact with NFVI maintenance, upgrade,
- scaling and to have graceful retirement. Receiving notifications over these
- NFVI events and responding to those within given time window, consumer can
- guarantee zero downtime to his service.
-
-The maintenance use case adds the Doctor platform an `admin tool` and an
-`app manager` component. Overview of maintenance components can be seen in
-:numref:`figure-p2`.
-
-.. figure:: ./images/Maintenance-design.png
- :name: figure-p2
- :width: 100%
-
- Doctor platform components in maintenance use case
-
-In maintenance use case, `app manager` (VNFM) will subscribe to maintenance
-notifications triggered by project specific alarms through AODH. This is the way
-it gets to know different NFVI maintenance, upgrade and scaling operations that
-effect to its instances. The `app manager` can do actions depicted in `green
-color` or tell `admin tool` to do admin actions depicted in `orange color`
-
-Any infrastructure component like `Inspector` can subscribe to maintenance
-notifications triggered by host specific alarms through AODH. Subscribing to the
-notifications needs admin privileges and can tell when a host is out of use as
-in maintenance and when it is taken back to production.
-
-Maintenance test case
-"""""""""""""""""""""
-
-Maintenance test case is currently running in our Apex CI and executed by tox.
-This is because the special limitation mentioned below and also the fact we
-currently have only sample implementation as a proof of concept and we also
-support unofficial OpenStack project Fenix. Environment variable
-TEST_CASE='maintenance' needs to be used when executing "doctor_tests/main.py"
-and ADMIN_TOOL_TYPE='fenix' if want to test with Fenix instead of sample
-implementation. Test case workflow can be seen in :numref:`figure-p3`.
-
-.. figure:: ./images/Maintenance-workflow.png
- :name: figure-p3
- :width: 100%
-
- Maintenance test case workflow
-
-In test case all compute capacity will be consumed with project (VNF) instances.
-For redundant services on instances and an empty compute needed for maintenance,
-test case will need at least 3 compute nodes in system. There will be 2
-instances on each compute, so minimum number of VCPUs is also 2. Depending on
-how many compute nodes there is application will always have 2 redundant
-instances (ACT-STDBY) on different compute nodes and rest of the compute
-capacity will be filled with non-redundant instances.
-
-For each project specific maintenance message there is a time window for
-`app manager` to make any needed action. This will guarantee zero
-down time for his service. All replies back are done by calling `admin tool` API
-given in the message.
-
-The following steps are executed:
-
-Infrastructure admin will call `admin tool` API to trigger maintenance for
-compute hosts having instances belonging to a VNF.
-
-Project specific `MAINTENANCE` notification is triggered to tell `app manager`
-that his instances are going to hit by infrastructure maintenance at a specific
-point in time. `app manager` will call `admin tool` API to answer back
-`ACK_MAINTENANCE`.
-
-When the time comes to start the actual maintenance workflow in `admin tool`,
-a `DOWN_SCALE` notification is triggered as there is no empty compute node for
-maintenance (or compute upgrade). Project receives corresponding alarm and scales
-down instances and call `admin tool` API to answer back `ACK_DOWN_SCALE`.
-
-As it might happen instances are not scaled down (removed) from a single
-compute node, `admin tool` might need to figure out what compute node should be
-made empty first and send `PREPARE_MAINTENANCE` to project telling which instance
-needs to be migrated to have the needed empty compute. `app manager` makes sure
-he is ready to migrate instance and call `admin tool` API to answer back
-`ACK_PREPARE_MAINTENANCE`. `admin tool` will make the migration and answer
-`ADMIN_ACTION_DONE`, so `app manager` knows instance can be again used.
-
-:numref:`figure-p3` has next a light blue section of actions to be done for each
-compute. However as we now have one empty compute, we will maintain/upgrade that
-first. So on first round, we can straight put compute in maintenance and send
-admin level host specific `IN_MAINTENANCE` message. This is caught by `Inspector`
-to know host is down for maintenance. `Inspector` can now disable any automatic
-fault management actions for the host as it can be down for a purpose. After
-`admin tool` has completed maintenance/upgrade `MAINTENANCE_COMPLETE` message
-is sent to tell host is back in production.
-
-Next rounds we always have instances on compute, so we need to have
-`PLANNED_MAINTANANCE` message to tell that those instances are now going to hit
-by maintenance. When `app manager` now receives this message, he knows instances
-to be moved away from compute will now move to already maintained/upgraded host.
-In test case no upgrade is done on application side to upgrade instances
-according to new infrastructure capabilities, but this could be done here as
-this information is also passed in the message. This might be just upgrading
-some RPMs, but also totally re-instantiating instance with a new flavor. Now if
-application runs an active side of a redundant instance on this compute,
-a switch over will be done. After `app manager` is ready he will call
-`admin tool` API to answer back `ACK_PLANNED_MAINTENANCE`. In test case the
-answer is `migrate`, so `admin tool` will migrate instances and reply
-`ADMIN_ACTION_DONE` and then `app manager` knows instances can be again used.
-Then we are ready to make the actual maintenance as previously trough
-`IN_MAINTENANCE` and `MAINTENANCE_COMPLETE` steps.
-
-After all computes are maintained, `admin tool` can send `MAINTENANCE_COMPLETE`
-to tell maintenance/upgrade is now complete. For `app manager` this means he
-can scale back to full capacity.
-
-This is the current sample implementation and test case. Real life
-implementation is started in OpenStack Fenix project and there we should
-eventually address requirements more deeply and update the test case with Fenix
-implementation.
