The Yardstick grafana -dashboard can be found here: http://testresults.opnfv.org/grafana/ - - -.. image:: images/login.png - :width: 800px - :alt: Yardstick grafana dashboard - - -Public access -============= - -Yardstick provids a public account for accessing to the dashboard. The username -and password are both set to ‘opnfv’. - - -Testcase dashboard -================== - -For each test case, there is a dedicated dashboard. Shown here is the dashboard -of TC002. - - -.. image:: images/TC002.png - :width: 800px - :alt:TC002 dashboard - -For each test case dashboard. On the top left, we have a dashboard selection, -you can switch to different test cases using this pull-down menu. - -Underneath, we have a pod and scenario selection. -All the pods and scenarios that have ever published test data to the InfluxDB -will be shown here. - -You can check multiple pods or scenarios. - -For each test case, we have a short description and a link to detailed test -case information in Yardstick user guide. - -Underneath, it is the result presentation section. -You can use the time period selection on the top right corner to zoom in or -zoom out the chart. - - -Administration access -===================== - -For a user with administration rights it is easy to update and save any -dashboard configuration. Saved updates immediately take effect and become live. -This may cause issues like: - -- Changes and updates made to the live configuration in Grafana can compromise - existing Grafana content in an unwanted, unpredicted or incompatible way. - Grafana as such is not version controlled, there exists one single Grafana - configuration per dashboard. -- There is a risk several people can disturb each other when doing updates to - the same Grafana dashboard at the same time. - -Any change made by administrator should be careful. - - -Add a dashboard into yardstick grafana -====================================== - -Due to security concern, users that using the public opnfv account are not able -to edit the yardstick grafana directly.It takes a few more steps for a -non-yardstick user to add a custom dashboard into yardstick grafana. - -There are 6 steps to go. - - -.. image:: images/add.png - :width: 800px - :alt: Add a dashboard into yardstick grafana - - -1. You need to build a local influxdb and grafana, so you can do the work - locally. You can refer to How to deploy InfluxDB and Grafana locally wiki - page about how to do this. - -2. Once step one is done, you can fetch the existing grafana dashboard - configuration file from the yardstick repository and import it to your local - grafana. After import is done, you grafana dashboard will be ready to use - just like the community’s dashboard. - -3. The third step is running some test cases to generate test results and - publishing it to your local influxdb. - -4. Now you have some data to visualize in your dashboard. In the fourth step, - it is time to create your own dashboard. You can either modify an existing - dashboard or try to create a new one from scratch. If you choose to modify - an existing dashboard then in the curtain menu of the existing dashboard do - a "Save As..." into a new dashboard copy instance, and then continue doing - all updates and saves within the dashboard copy. - -5. When finished with all Grafana configuration changes in this temporary - dashboard then chose "export" of the updated dashboard copy into a JSON file - and put it up for review in Gerrit, in file /yardstick/dashboard/Yardstick-TCxxx-yyyyyyyyyyyyy. - For instance a typical default name of the file would be "Yardstick-TC001 Copy-1234567891234". - -6. Once you finish your dashboard, the next step is exporting the configuration - file and propose a patch into Yardstick. Yardstick team will review and - merge it into Yardstick repository. After approved review Yardstick team - will do an "import" of the JSON file and also a "save dashboard" as soon as - possible to replace the old live dashboard configuration. - |
