EG-EXP-1: Bare Metal Support Acceptance Test

This page captures status for the test case EG-EXP-1, which verified support for bare metal nodes. For overall status see the ExoGENI Acceptance Test Status page.

Last update: 03/11/13

Test Status

This section captures the status for each step in the acceptance test plan.

Step State Ticket Comments

Step 4 Color(orange,Blocked)? Replace Bare metal with VM for Windows
Step 5 Color(yellow,Complete)?
Step 6 Color(yellow,Complete)?
Step 7 Color(yellow,Complete)?
Step 8 Color(orange,Blocked)? Not possible at this time to redefine bare metal allocation


State Legend Description
Color(green,Pass)? Test completed and met all criteria
Color(#98FB98,Pass: most criteria)? Test completed and met most criteria. Exceptions documented
Color(red,Fail)? Test completed and failed to meet criteria.
Color(yellow,Complete)? Test completed but will require re-execution due to expected changes
Color(orange,Blocked)? Blocked by ticketed issue(s).
Color(#63B8FF,In Progress)? Currently under test.


Test Plan Steps

Notes:

  1. Bare metal nodes are available via ExoSM only.
  2. Bare metal node only support one OS version at this time, CentOS release 6.3.
  3. Two bare metal nodes at BBN and 2 bare metal nodes at RENCI.

Step 1. Determine which nodes can be used as bare metal, aka exclusive node

The omni_configuration used for this scenario includes a nick_name for the ExoSM which is used through out the steps:

eg-sm=,https://geni.renci.org:11443/orca/xmlrpc

Determine available bare metal resources from the ExoSM.

$ omni.py listresources -a eg-sm -o

The listresources output file rspec-geni-renci-org-11443-orca.xml has the bare metal resources at the two ExoGENI sites BBN and RENCI:

$ egrep "xcat-cloud|available now|type_slot" rspec-geni-renci-org-11443-orca.xml
      <node component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+exogeni.net:rcivmsite+node+orca-xcat-cloud" 
        component_manager_id="urn:publicid:IDN+exogeni.net:rcivmsite+authority+am" 
         component_name="orca-xcat-cloud" exclusive="false">    
            <hardware_type name="orca-xcat-cloud">      
                  <ns3:node_type type_slots="2"/>      
            <available now="true"/>    
      <node component_id="urn:publicid:IDN+exogeni.net:bbnvmsite+node+orca-xcat-cloud" 
        component_manager_id="urn:publicid:IDN+exogeni.net:bbnvmsite+authority+am" 
         component_name="orca-xcat-cloud" exclusive="false">    
            <hardware_type name="orca-xcat-cloud">      
                  <ns3:node_type type_slots="2"/>      
            <available now="true"/>    

Verify that each is available (available now="true") before requesting the bare metal nodes.

Step 2. Obtain a list of OS images which can be loaded on bare metal nodes from the ExoGENI team.

The list should be based on successful bare metal loads by ExoGENI team or others in GENI community and should be available on a public web page.

At the time of feature delivery, bare metal nodes only supported one image. The reserved bare metal nodes ran these two OS:

[root@bbn-w4 ~]# cat /etc/issue
CentOS release 6.3 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m
[root@bbn-w4 ~]# uname -a
Linux bbn-w10 2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jun 22 12:19:21 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

and

[root@rci-w4 ~]# cat /etc/issue
CentOS release 6.3 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m
[root@rci-w4 ~]# uname -a
Linux rci-w10 2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jun 22 12:19:21 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The plan is for all bare metal to run the CentOS release 6.3 OS, at some point.

Step 3. Obtain 2 licensed recent Microsoft OS images for bare metal nodes from the site (BBN)

There is no plan to support MS Windows on a bare metal node, this test will replace bare metal Windows with a Windows VM in future test runs.

Step 4. Reserve and boot 2 bare metal node using the Microsoft image.

There is no plan to support MS Windows on a bare metal node, this test will replace bare metal Windows with a Windows VM in future test runs.

Step 5. Obtain a recent Linux OS image for bare metal nodes from the ExoGENI team's successful test list

The bare metal nodes only support one image at this time. The default image is the one used to develop the support for this feature.

Step 6. Reserve and boot a bare metal node using this Linux OS image.

Exchange traffic between the two nodes:

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 17.360/34.837/1045.749/132.739 ms, pipe 2

Step 7. Release bare metal resource.

Once traffic is exchanged successfully between the two bare metal nodes, delete the sliver while traffic is being exchanged:

$ omni.py -a eg-sm deletesliver EG-EXP-1

Step 8. Modify Aggregate resource allocation for the rack to add 1 additional bare metal node (2 total) for use in experimenter test cases.

Not possible at this time.
