Rally OpenStack benchmarking with Docker
OpenStack Rally is a project under the Big Tent umbrella with the mission of verify OpenStack environments to ensure SLAs under high loads or fail over scenarios, and cloud services verification. Rally can also be used to continuous integration and delivery tasks.
Why use Rally inside a Docker container? Rally is a service that is not commonly used in most environments, is a tool that is used when new infrastructure changes are made or when a SLAs review must be done, not make any sense have a service consuming infrastructure resources or block a server only for use under specific situations. Also, if your OpenStack infrastructure is automated, with a container you can have a nice integration with CI/CD tools like Jenkins.
Main reasons to use Rally inside Docker containers:
  • Quick tests/deployments of Rally tasks
  • Automated testing
  • Cost savings
  • Operators can execute tasks with their own computers, freeing
    infrastructure resources
  • Re-utilization of resources
Here you got my suggestions about how to use Rally inside Docker:
  • Create a new container(automatized or not by another tool)
  • Always use an external volume to store rally reports data
  • Execute Rally tasks
  • Export the reports to the volume shared with the Docker host
  • Kill the container
| Let\'s start with this quick guide: | Clone the repo i created with the Dockerfile
[[email protected] ~]$ git clone https://github.com/egonzalez90/docker-rally.git
Move to docker-rally directory
[[email protected] ~]$ cd docker-rally/
Create the Docker image
[[email protected] docker-rally]$ docker build -t egonzalez90/rally-mitaka .
Sending build context to Docker daemon 76.8 kB

Start rally container with a pseudo-tty and a volume to store rally execution data
[[email protected] docker-rally]$ docker run -ti -v /opt/rally-data/:/rally-data:Z egonzalez90/rally-mitaka
[[email protected] /]#
Create a file called deploy.json with the admin info of your OpenStack environment
[[email protected] /]# vi deploy.json
​
{
"type": "ExistingCloud",
"auth_url": "http://controller:5000/v2.0",
"region_name": "RegionOne",
"admin": {
"username": "admin",
"password": "my_password",
"tenant_name": "admin"
}
}
Create a deployment with the json we previously created
[[email protected] /]# rally deployment create --file=deploy.json --name=existing
2016-06-15 09:42:25.428 25 INFO rally.deployment.engine [-] Deployment a5162111-02a5-458f-bb59-f822cab1aa93 | Starting: OpenStack cloud deployment.

​
HINTS:
* To get your cloud resources, run:
rally show [flavors|images|keypairs|networks|secgroups]
​
* To use standard OpenStack clients, set up your env by running:
source ~/.rally/openrc
OpenStack clients are now configured, e.g run:
glance image-list
Source the openrc file rally has created with your user info and test if you can connect with glance
[[email protected] /]# source ~/.rally/openrc
​
[[email protected] /]# glance image-list

Check deployment status
[[email protected] /]# rally deployment check
keystone endpoints are valid and following services are available:
+-------------+----------------+-----------+
| services | type | status |
+-------------+----------------+-----------+
| __unknown__ | volumev2 | Available |
| ceilometer | metering | Available |
| cinder | volume | Available |
| cloud | cloudformation | Available |
| glance | image | Available |
| heat | orchestration | Available |
| keystone | identity | Available |
| neutron | network | Available |
| nova | compute | Available |
+-------------+----------------+-----------+
NOTE: '__unknown__' service name means that Keystone service catalog doesn't return name for this service and Rally can not identify service by its type. BUT you still can use such services with api_versions context, specifying type of service (execute `rally plugin show api_versions` for more details).
Create a test execution file, this test will check if nova can boot and delete some instances
[[email protected] /]# vi execution.json
​
{
"NovaServers.boot_and_delete_server": [
{
"runner": {
"type": "constant",
"concurrency": 2,
"times": 10
},
"args": {
"force_delete": false,

"users_per_tenant": 2,
"tenants": 3,

}
}
}
]
}
Run the task with the following command
[[email protected] /]# rally task start execution.json

​
Input task is:
