|Storage Performance |
| |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|test case id | OPNFV_YARDSTICK_TC005_STORAGE PERFORMANCE |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|metric | IOPS (Average IOs performed per second), |
| | Throughput (Average disk read/write bandwidth rate), |
| | Latency (Average disk read/write latency) |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|test purpose | The purpose of TC005 is to evaluate the IaaS storage |
| | performance with regards to IOPS, throughput and latency. |
| | |
| | The purpose is also to be able to spot the trends. |
| | Test results, graphs and similar shall be stored for |
| | comparison reasons and product evolution understanding |
| | between different OPNFV versions and/or configurations. |
| | |

|test tool | fio |
| | |
| | fio is an I/O tool meant to be used both for benchmark and |
| | stress/hardware verification. It has support for 19 |
| | different types of I/O engines (sync, mmap, libaio, |
| | posixaio, SG v3, splice, null, network, syslet, guasi, |
| | solarisaio, and more), I/O priorities (for newer Linux |
| | kernels), rate I/O, forked or threaded jobs, and much more. |
| | |
| | (fio is not always part of a Linux distribution, hence it |
| | needs to be installed. As an example see the |
| | /yardstick/tools/ directory for how to generate a Linux |
| | image with fio included.) |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|test | fio test is invoked in a host VM on a compute blade, a job |
|description | file as well as parameters are passed to fio and fio will |
| | start doing what the job file tells it to do. |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|configuration | file: opnfv_yardstick_tc005.yaml |
| | |
| | IO types is set to read, write, randwrite, randread, rw. |
| | IO block size is set to 4KB, 64KB, 1024KB. |
| | fio is run for each IO type and IO block size scheme, |
| | each iteration runs for 30 seconds (10 for ramp time, 20 for |
| | runtime). |
| | |
| | For SLA, minimum read/write iops is set to 100, |
| | minimum read/write throughput is set to 400 KB/s, |
| | and maximum read/write latency is set to 20000 usec. |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|applicability | This test case can be configured with different: |
| | |
| | * IO types; |
| | * IO block size; |
| | * IO depth; |
| | * ramp time; |
| | * test duration. |
| | |
| | Default values exist. |
| | |
| | SLA is optional. The SLA in this test case serves as an |
| | example. Considerably higher throughput and lower latency |
| | are expected. However, to cover most configurations, both |
| | baremetal and fully virtualized ones, this value should be |
| | possible to achieve and acceptable for black box testing. |
| | Many heavy IO applications start to suffer badly if the |
| | read/write bandwidths are lower than this. |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|usability | This test case is one of Yardstick's generic test. Thus it |
| | is runnable on most of the scenarios. |

|pre-test | The test case image needs to be installed into Glance |
|conditions | with fio included in it. |
| | |
| | No POD specific requirements have been identified. |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|test sequence | description and expected result |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|step 1 | A host VM with fio installed is booted. |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|step 2 | Yardstick is connected with the host VM by using ssh. |
| | 'fio_benchmark' bash script is copyied from Jump Host to |
| | the host VM via the ssh tunnel. |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|step 3 | 'fio_benchmark' script is invoked. Simulated IO operations |
| | are started. IOPS, disk read/write bandwidth and latency are |
| | recorded and checked against the SLA. Logs are produced and |
| | stored. |
| | |
| | Result: Logs are stored. |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|step 4 | The host VM is deleted. |
| | |
+--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|test verdict | Fails only if SLA is not passed, or if there is a test case |
| | execution problem. |
