Note that this procedure is not only installing the necessary tools to run PROX,
but also does some system optimizations (tuned). Check deploycentostools.sh for more details.

-createrapid.py will use the OpenStack CLI to create the flavor, key-pair, network, image,
-servers, ...
-It will create a <STACK>.env file containing all info that will be used by runrapid.py
-to actually run the tests. Logging can be found in the CREATE<STACK>.log file
-You can use floating IP addresses by specifying the floating IP network
---floating_network NETWORK
-or directly connect through the INTERNAL_NETWORK by using the following parameter:
---floating_network NO
-/etc/resolv.conf will contain DNS info from the "best" interface. Since we are
-deploying VMs with multiple interface on different networks, this info might be
-taken from the "wrong" network (e.g. the dataplane network).
+Now you need to create a stack, that will deploy the PROX VMs using the PROX
+image built in the previous step. The stack needs to have an ouput section
+with the following outputs:
+outputs:
+ number_of_servers:
+ value:
+ - <NUMBER_OF_SERVERS> # A list of <NUMBER_OF_SERVERS>
+ server_name:
+ value:
+ - - <SERVER_NAME> # A list containing a list of <SERVER_NAME>
+ data_plane_ips:
+ value:
+ - - <DATA_PLANE_IPS> # A list containing a list of <DATA_PLANE_IPS>
+ data_plane_macs:
+ value:
+ - - <DATA_PLANE_MACS> # A list containing a list of <DATA_PLANE_MACS>
+ mngmt_ips:
+ value:
+ - - <MNGMT_IP> # A list containing a list of <MNGMT_IP>
+where
+ * <NUMBER_OF_SERVERS> is an int
+ * <SERVER_NAME> is a string
+ * <DATA_PLANE_IPS> is a list of strings
+ * <DATA_PLANE_MACS> is a list of strings
+ * <MNGMT_IP> is a string

+createrapid.py will take the input from config_file, to create an ssh keypair
