Goals

Help user to understand the test behavior, and analyze the performance results from metrics generated by VSPERF and Alert-Management solution to send alerts that will be notified to VSPERF.

Tasks

Deliverables

...

• Client-Side Ansible Playbook:
  • Deploy and Configure agents (collectd)
• Server-Side Ansible playbooks
  • Deploy K8S Cluster
  • Deploy and configure PAG stack
• Alerting Configuration
• Jupyter Notebooks
  • Metrics Analysis
• Visualization and alert management in OPNFV airship.

Evaluation Criteria

• 1st Evaluation (end of week 3):  Understanding Prometheus, Alert Manager, and Grafana, Understanding Collectd, Collectd-Exporter, cAdvisor and Deployment of Monitoring Stack

• 2nd Evaluation (end of week 6):  Creating, Configurting and testing Alerts - BM & OS, , Alert Notification and Handling - BM & OS,  Starting with Implement a custom CLA - Performance Tuning , Starting with Create Alert Visualization

• 3rd Evaluation (end of week 9):  Complete Implement a custom CLA - Performance Tuning HA Deployment of monitoring solution, Complete Create Alert Visualization  and Enhance the Alert solution for K8S data

• Final Evaluation (end of week 12):  Custom analytics and complete Release of  Complete Monitoring Solution

Deliverables not Completed

• Visualization and alert management in OPNFV airship (OS)
  • Unfortunately the OPNFV-Airship deployments were not stable and the LMA components of the Airship constantly crashed.
  • OPNFV-Airship team could not fix the issues.
  • Whenever the OPNFV-Airship team is ready, and their deployments stable, I would be more than willing to contribute.

Recommendation for Future Work

• Complete the planned OPNFV - Airship  (openstack) monitoring part
• Closed Loop Automation for the complete logs and metrics analysis system

Code examples

• Automated K8S deployment
• Metric Analysis and Causation Analysis Notebooks
• Collectd deployment using ansible
• PAG stack deployed as docker containers
• Automated PAG deployment (ansible)

Results
