+CI Resources

+CI for OPNFV requires a range of resources in order to meet testing and
+verification needs. Each resource must meet a set of criteria in order
+to be part of CI for an OPNFV release. There are three types of
+resources:
+
+ - Baremetal PODs (PODs)
+ - Virtual PODs (vPODs)
+ - Build Servers

+=======================
+Software Infrastructure
+=======================
+
+OPNFV Software Infrastructure consists of set of components and tools that
+realize OPNFV Continuous Integration (CI) and provide means for community to
+contribute to OPNFV in most efficient way. OPNFV Software Infrastructure
+enables and orchestrates development, integration and testing activities for
+the components OPNFV consumes from upstream communities and for the development
+work done in scope of OPNFV. Apart from orchestration aspects, providing timely
+feedback that is fit for purpose to the OPNFV community is one of its missions.
+
+CI is the top priority for OPNFV Software Infrastructure. Due to the importance
+the OPNFV community puts into it, the resulting CI machinery is highly
+powerful, capable and runs against distributed hardware infrastructure managed
+by OPNFV Pharos_ Project. The hardware infrastructure OPNFV CI relies on is
+located in 3 different continents, 5+ different countries and 10+ different
+member companies.
+
+OPNFV CI is continuously evolved in order to fulfill the needs and match the
+expectations of the OPNFV community.
+
+OPNFV Software Infrastructure is developed, maintained and operated by OPNFV
+Releng_ Project with the support from Linux Foundation.

+
+Jenkins
+=======
+
+Jenkins is an extensible open source Continuous Integration (CI) server. [1]
+
+Linux Foundation (LF) hosts and operates `OPNFV Jenkins <https://build.opnfv.org/ci/>`_.
+
+Jenkins Slaves
+==============
+
+**Slaves** are computers that are set up to build projects for a **Jenkins Master**. [2]
+
+Jenkins runs a separate program called "**slave agent**" on slaves.
+When slaves are registered to a master, the master starts distributing load to slaves by
+scheduling jobs to run on slaves if the jobs are set to run on them. [2]
+
+Term **Node** is used to refer to all machines that are part of Jenkins grid, slaves and
+master. [2]
+
+Two types of slaves are currently connected to OPNFV Jenkins and handling
+different tasks depending on the purpose of connecting the slave.
+
+* Slaves hosted in `LF Lab <https://wiki.opnfv.org/get_started/lflab_hosting#hardware_setup>`_
+* Slaves hosted in `Community Test Labs <https://wiki.opnfv.org/pharos#community_test_labs>`_
+
+The slaves connected to OPNFV Jenkins can be seen using this link:
+https://build.opnfv.org/ci/computer/
+
+Slaves without red cross next to computer icon are fully functional.
+
+Connecting Slaves to OPNFV Jenkins
+==================================
+
+The method that is normally used for connecting slaves to Jenkins requires direct SSH access to
+servers.
+[3] This is the method that is used for connecting slaves hosted in LF Lab.
+
+Connecting slaves using direct SSH access can become a challenge given that OPNFV Project
+has number of different labs provided by community as mentioned in previous section.
+All these labs have different security requirements which can increase the effort
+and the time needed for connecting slaves to Jenkins.
+In order to reduce the effort and the time needed for connecting slaves and streamline the
+process, it has been decided to connect slaves using
+`Java Network Launch Protocol (JNLP) <https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/deploymentInDepth/jnlp.html>`_.
+
+Connecting Slaves from LF Lab to OPNFV Jenkins
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Slaves hosted in LF Lab are handled by LF. All the requests and questions regarding
+these slaves should be submitted to `OPNFV LF Helpdesk <opnfv-helpdesk@rt.linuxfoundation.org>`_.
+
+Connecting Slaves from Community Labs to OPNFV Jenkins
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+As noted in corresponding section, slaves from Community Labs are connected using JNLP. Via JNLP,
+slaves open connection towards Jenkins Master instead of Jenkins Master accessing to them directly.
+
+Servers connecting to OPNFV Jenkins using this method must have access to internet.
+
+Please follow below steps to connect a slave to OPNFV Jenkins.
+
+ 1. Create a user named **jenkins** on the machine you want to connect to OPNFV Jenkins and give the user sudo rights.
+ 2. Install needed software on the machine you want to connect to OPNFV Jenkins as slave.
+ - openjdk 8
+ - monit
+ 3. If the slave will be used for running virtual deployments, Functest, and Yardstick, install below software and make jenkins user the member of the groups.
+ - docker
+ - libvirt
+ 4. Create slave root in Jenkins user home directory.
+ ``mkdir -p /home/jenkins/opnfv/slave_root``
+ 5. Clone OPNFV Releng Git repository.
+ ``mkdir -p /home/jenkins/opnfv/repos``
+
+ ``cd /home/jenkins/opnfv/repos``
+
+ ``git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/p/releng.git``
+ 6. Contact LF by sending mail to `OPNFV LF Helpdesk <opnfv-helpdesk@rt.linuxfoundation.org>`_ and request creation of a slave on OPNFV Jenkins. Include below information in your mail.
+ - Slave root (/home/jenkins/opnfv/slave_root)
+ - Public IP of the slave (You can get the IP by executing ``curl http://icanhazip.com/``)
+ - PGP Key (attached to the mail or exported to a key server)
+ 7. Once you get confirmation from LF stating that your slave is created on OPNFV Jenkins, check if the firewall on LF is open for the server you are trying to connect to Jenkins.
+ ``cp /home/jenkins/opnfv/repos/releng/utils/jenkins-jnlp-connect.sh /home/jenkins/``
+ ``cd /home/jenkins/``
+ ``sudo ./jenkins-jnlp-connect.sh -j /home/jenkins -u jenkins -n <slave name on OPNFV Jenkins> -s <the token you received from LF> -f``
+
+ - If you receive an error, follow the steps listed on the command output.
+ 8. Run the same script with test(-t) on foreground in order to make sure no problem on connection. You should see **INFO: Connected** in the console log.
+ ``sudo ./jenkins-jnlp-connect.sh -j /home/jenkins -u jenkins -n <slave name on OPNFV Jenkins> -s <the token you received from LF> -t``
+
+ - If you receive an error similar to the one shown `on this link <http://hastebin.com/ozadagirax.avrasm>`_, you need to check your firewall and allow outgoing connections for the port.
+ 9. Kill the Java slave.jar process.
+ 10. Run the same script normally without test(-t) in order to get monit script created.
+ ``sudo ./jenkins-jnlp-connect.sh -j /home/jenkins -u jenkins -n <slave name on OPNFV Jenkins> -s <the token you received from LF>``
+ 11. Edit monit configuration and enable http interface. The file to edit is /etc/monit/monitrc on Ubuntu systems. Uncomment below lines.
+ set httpd port 2812 and
+ use address localhost # only accept connection from localhost
+ allow localhost # allow localhost to connect to the server and
+ 12. Restart monit service.
+ - Without systemd:
+
+ ``sudo service monit restart``
+ - With systemd: you have to enable monit service first and then restart it.
+
+ ``sudo systemctl enable monit``
+
+ ``sudo systemctl restart monit``
+ 13. Check to see if jenkins comes up as managed service in monit.
+ ``sudo monit status``
+ 14. Connect slave to OPNFV Jenkins using monit.
+ ``sudo monit start jenkins``
+ 15. Check slave on OPNFV Jenkins to verify the slave is reported as connected.
+ - The slave on OPNFV Jenkins should have some executors in “Idle” state if the connection is successful.
+
+Notes
+==========
+
+PGP Key Instructions
+--------------------
+
+Public PGP Key can be uploaded to public key server so it can be taken from
+there using your mail address. Example command to upload the key to key server is
+
+ ``gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net:80 --send-keys XXXXXXX``
+
+The Public PGP Key can also be attached to the email by storing the key in a file and then
+attaching it to the email.
+
+ ``gpg --export -a '<your email address>' > pgp.pubkey``
