systems directory scripts for Centos7
Installation scripts for Centos7 have been updated with new packages. Script will install also python3 packages and create python virtual environment. As a last step DPDK, OVS and QEMU will be compiled. So after script execution VSPERF should be ready for use. It is recommended to execute installation script from user account with password less sudo access. Otherwise python environment must be copied over from root home directory. After VSPERF generic Makefile will be created by VSPERF-114, it can be enhanced to call build script too.

----------------------------------
+Execution of installation script:

-
- yum -y install scl-utils
- yum -y install https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/python33/epel-7-x86_64/download/rhscl-python33-epel-7-x86_64.noarch.rpm

-Python 3 Packages
------------------
-
-To avoid file permission errors and Python version issues, use
-virtualenv to create an isolated environment with Python3. The required
-Python 3 packages can be found in the ``requirements.txt`` file in the
-root of the test suite. They can be installed in your virtual
-environment like so:
-
- .. code-block:: bash
+.. code:: bash
- scl enable python33 bash
- # Create virtual environment
- virtualenv vsperfenv
- cd vsperfenv
- source bin/activate
- pip install -r requirements.txt
+ cd systems
+ ./build_base_machine.sh
You need to activate the virtual environment every time you start a new
shell session. To activate, simple run:
