+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+
+The OPNFV deployment is out of the scope of this document but it can be
+found in http://artifacts.opnfv.org/opnfvdocs/colorado/docs/configguide/index.html.
+The OPNFV platform is considered as the System Under Test (SUT) in this
+document.
+
+Several prerequisites are needed for Yardstick:
+
+ #. A Jumphost to run Yardstick on
+ #. A Docker daemon shall be installed on the Jumphost
+ #. A public/external network created on the SUT
+ #. Connectivity from the Jumphost to the SUT public/external network
+
+WARNING: Connectivity from Jumphost is essential and it is of paramount
+importance to make sure it is working before even considering to install
+and run Yardstick. Make also sure you understand how your networking is
+designed to work.
+
+NOTE: **Jumphost** refers to any server which meets the previous
+requirements. Normally it is the same server from where the OPNFV
+deployment has been triggered previously.
+
+NOTE: If your Jumphost is operating behind a company http proxy and/or
+Firewall, please consult first the section `Proxy Support`_, towards
+the end of this document. The section details some tips/tricks which
+*may* be of help in a proxified environment.

+Grafana dashboard
+=================
+
+
+Abstract
+========
+
+This chapter describes the Yardstick grafana dashboard. 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.
