These need to be installed for the test suite to function. - -Installation of required packages, preparation of Python 3 virtual -environment and compilation of OVS, DPDK and QEMU is performed by -script **systems/build_base_machine.sh**. It should be executed under -user account, which will be used for vsperf execution. - -Please Note: Password-less sudo access must be configured for given -user account before script is executed. - -Execution of installation script: - -.. code:: bash - - $ cd systems - $ ./build_base_machine.sh - -Please note: you don't need to go into any of the systems subdirectories, -simply run the top level **build_base_machine.sh**, your OS will be detected -automatically. - -Currently supported operating systems are: - - - CentOS 7 - - Fedora 20 - - Fedora 21 - - Fedora 22 - - Ubuntu 14.04 - -Script **build_base_machine.sh** will install all the vsperf dependencies -in terms of system packages, Python 3.x and required Python modules. -In case of CentOS 7 it will install Python 3.3 from an additional repository -provided by Software Collections (`a link`_). Installation script will also -use `virtualenv`_ to create a vsperf virtual environment, which is isolated -from the default Python environment. This environment will reside -in a directory called **vsperfenv** in $HOME. - -You will need to activate the virtual environment every time you start a -new shell session. Its activation is specific to your OS: - -CentOS 7: - -.. code:: bash - - $ scl enable python33 bash - $ cd $HOME/vsperfenv - $ source bin/activate - -Fedora and Ubuntu: - -.. code:: bash - - $ cd $HOME/vsperfenv - $ source bin/activate - - --------------- - -Working Behind a Proxy -====================== - -If you're behind a proxy, you'll likely want to configure this before -running any of the above. For example: - - .. code:: bash - - export http_proxy=proxy.mycompany.com:123 - export https_proxy=proxy.mycompany.com:123 - -.. _a link: http://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/python33/ -.. _virtualenv: https://virtualenv.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ |
