Environment and Resources

Kubernetes cluster with 4 worker nodes, sharing hardware configuration shown in a table below, is deployed in OpenStack cloud operating system. The test components in docker containers are further deployed on the Kubernetes cluster.

Network Performance

Pod measurement method

In order to check cluster network performance tests with usage of Iperf3 have been applied. Iperf is a tool for measurement of the maximum bandwidth on IP networks, it runs on two mode: server and client. We used a docker image: networkstatic/iperf3.

Following deployment creates a pod with iperf (server mode) on one worker, and one pod with iperf client for each worker.

          command: ['/bin/sh', '-c', 'sleep infinity']

To create deployment, execute following command:

kubectl create -f deployment.yaml

To find all iperf pods, execute:

kubectl -n onap get pods -o wide | grep iperf

To measure connection between pods, run iperf on iperf-client pod, using following command:

kubectl -n onap exec -it <iperf-client-pod> -- iperf3 -c iperf3-server

To change output format from MBits/sec to MBytes/sec:

kubectl -n onap exec -it <iperf-client-pod> -- iperf3 -c iperf3-server -f MBytes

To change measure time:

kubectl -n onap exec -it <iperf-client-pod> -- iperf3 -c iperf3-server -t <time-in-second>

To gather results, the command was executed:

kubectl -n onap exec -it <iperf-client-pod> -- iperf3 -c iperf3-server -f MBytes

Verify that pods are up and running

Verify zookeeper and broker

kubectl -n onap get pods | grep 'zookeeper-deployment-1\|broker0'

Verify kafka service

kubectl -n onap get svc | grep kafka-service

If you need to change some variable or anything in a yml file, delete the current deployment, for example:

Delete broker deployment

kubectl -n onap delete deploy kafka-broker0

And after modifying the file create a new deployment as described above.

Run the test

Modify tools/performance/cloud scripts to match the names in your deployments, described in the previous step. Here is a diff file:

tools.diff

Go to tools/performance/cloud and reboot the environment:

Run the script

./reboot-test-environment.sh -v

Now you are ready to run the test.

Without DMaaP Kafka

Conditions

To gather tcpdump data another container was added to hv-ves deployment in kubernetes and producer-pod.yaml (command to get tcpdump data file: kubectl cp -n onap <pod-name>:/tcpdump.pcap -c tcpdump ./<pod-name>.pcap):

Tcpdump container

...
containers:
  ...
<<default containers>>
  ...
- name: tcpdump
  image: onap-dev-local.esisoj70.emea.nsn-net.net/rjanecze/my-tcpdump:1.0.7
...

Tests were performed with following configuration:

Messages per producer	Payload size [B]	Interval [ms]
90000	8192	10

Raw results data

Raw results data with screenshots can be found in following files:

Series 1 - results_series_1.zip
Series 2 - results_series_2.zip

To see custom Kafka metrics you may want to change kafka-and-producers.json (located in HV-VES project directory: tools/performance/cloud/grafana/dashboards) to

kafka-and-producers.json
