Preparing a QCOW2 Benchmark Harness Image for Ubuntu (CBTOOL and Benchmark Drivers)

The instructions below assume that the tester will install CBTOOL in an instance (e.g., a VM) which will have access to the Internet at the time of kit installation.

If Internet access is not available, then the tester must set up the Ubuntu and python pip repositories locally and configure the instance with these repositories. The instructions to configure these repositories are not in the scope of this document.

The benchmark has been tested and is known to work with an Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64 image. If you already have such an image available you can use it, otherwise one can be found in Step 1 below.

  1. Download the Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64 image from Ubuntu site:

    wget https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/trusty/current/trusty-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img

  2. Upload the above image in your OpenStack cloud.

Assuming openrc for your OpenStack cloud is present at /root:

source /root/openrc
glance image-create --name trusty --disk-format qcow2 --container-format bare --is-public True --file ./trusty-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img

(The image does not have to be made public)

The instructions for OpenStack-based public clouds may slightly differ.

  1. Create a VM from this blank Ubuntu image.
  • Choose at least m1.medium flavor (2 VCPU, 4GB RAM, 40 GB root disk).
  • Boot from ‘trusty’ image that was uploaded earlier.
  • Select a key to inject.
  • Select the network to install (make sure that the network has Internet connectivity).
  • Press Launch.

  1. SSH into your VM, get the latest package list, and install unzip and git packages. Make sure that DNS is configured correctly in this VM (/etc/hosts file):

    ssh -i YOURKEY ubuntu@[YOURVMIPADDR]
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git -y
sudo apt-get install unzip -y

  2. Add your machine hostname and IP address to /etc/hosts file. If more than one interface is configured in the system as indicated by the output of ifconfig -a, add the IP address and hostname to /etc/hosts which will be accessible from a browser.:

    vi /etc/hosts
IPADDR HOSTNAME

  3. Copy the kit zip file in this VM and unzip the kit file in home directory:

    unzip spec_cloud_iaas_2016_*.zip

    It will create the following files:

    $ ls ~/
osgcloud                                      SPEC_CLOUD_README  workloads
spec_cloud_iaas_2016_*.zip  SPEC_LICENSE

Development only: The git instructions are provided again for your reference:

git clone --recursive https://[YOUR SPEC USERNAME]@git.spec.org/repos/osgcloud
Enter your pro.spec.org username and password

Development only: Checkout the latest benchmark harness code. Assuming, the benchmark harness was downloaded into /home/ubuntu/osgcloud:

cd /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/
git pull

cd /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/cbtool
git pull origin master
  1. Prepare the keys to be used with CBTOOL and instances

Generate your own ssh key:

ssh-keygen [press ENTER for all options]

The above command will create the following directory if it does not exist and add id_rsa and id_rsa.pub keys into it. Add this key to the authorized_keys file:

/home/ubuntu/.ssh/
  cat /home/ubuntu/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> /home/ubuntu/.ssh/authorized_keys

If you are using ssh keys shipped with the kit, please use the following commands to copy the keys into /home/ubuntu/.ssh directory. Please do not use these keys for public clouds:

cp /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/spec_ssh_keys/spec_ssh /home/ubuntu/.ssh/id_rsa
cp /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/spec_ssh_keys/spec_ssh.pub /home/ubuntu/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
cat /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/spec_ssh_keys/spec_ssh.pub >> /home/ubuntu/.ssh/authorized_keys

Copy the keys into CBTOOL credentials directory:

cp /home/ubuntu/.ssh/id_rsa /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/cbtool/credentials/cbtool_rsa
cp /home/ubuntu/.ssh/id_rsa.pub /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/cbtool/credentials/cbtool_rsa.pub

Ensure that the permissions of these keys is restrictive:

chmod 400 /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/cbtool/credentials/cbtool_rsa
chmod 400 /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/cbtool/credentials/cbtool_rsa.pub

  1. Now, we are ready to install CBTOOL:

    cd /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/
./cbtool/install -r orchestrator

Here is the output:

  1. Check if your redis server is running by executing the following command:

    sudo netstat -tulpn | grep 6379
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:6379          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      11701/redis-server

If redis is listening on 127.0.0.1, please do the following:

sudo service redis-server restart

  1. Then, lets start CBTOOL:

    cd /home/ubuntu/osgcloud/cbtool
./cb --hard_reset

You should see an output like this:

Follow the instructions on Running Benchmark with a Simulated Cloud page to run a ‘simulated mode’ of the benchmark. The details of the ‘simulated mode’ are also described in that page.

  1. Check the version of the mongo installed. The SPEC Cloud IaaS 2016 Benchmark kit does not ship with the mongo server. It is installed as part of CBTOOL installation. The following mongo version have been tested with CBTOOL shipped in the kit:

    $mongo --version
MongoDB shell version: 2.4.9

  2. Check the redis version installed. CBTOOL shipped with the benchmark has been tested with the following redis version:

    $redis-server -v
Redis server v=2.8.4
If during subsequent installation of the benchmark, a new redis version is found not to work, the tester should install redis with the above version.
  1. Check python package versions. The following commands are helpful. These commands assume connectivity to Ubuntu and Python respositories.

Install Python package manager, namely, pip:

sudo apt-get install python-pip

List python packages:

sudo pip list

Install a python package:

sudo pip install PYTHONPACKAGE

(replace PYTHONPACKAGE with the name of package being installed)

Install a python package with a version:

sudo pip install PYTHONPACKAGE==0.1

Remove a python package:

sudo pip uninstall PYTHONPACKAGE

The pip packages installed on the benchmark harness machine and their version should resemble this list:

      sudo pip list

      apache-libcloud (0.17.0)
      apt-xapian-index (0.45)
      Babel (1.3)
