Scheduling a suite¶

This requires access to a running teuthology cluster, for instance the cluster from the sepia lab.

• git clone https://github.com/ceph/teuthology/
• cd teuthology
• ./bootstrap
• Test the suite with --dry-run, i.e. something like:
  

  ./virtualenv/bin/teuthology-suite --dry-run --filter-out btrfs,ext4 --priority 1000 --suite rados --suite-branch giant --machine-type plana,burnupi,mira --distro ubuntu --email loic@dachary.org --owner loic@dachary.org --ceph giant
  

• Review the jobs to be scheduled and if it matches what is expected, run the same command without the --dry-run
• Assuming the suite was run on the sepia lab, it will immediately show up at http://pulpito.ceph.com/ (for instance http://pulpito.ceph.com/loic-2015-03-27_09:57:09-upgrade:firefly-x:stress-split-erasure-code-hammer---basic-multi/). Note the loic-2015-03-27_09:57:09-upgrade:firefly-x:stress-split-erasure-code-hammer---basic-multi part of the path: it matches the run name displayed by teuthology-suite

The meaning of the teuthology-suite arguments are:

• --suite a reference to https://github.com/ceph/ceph-qa-suite/tree/master/suites. For instance --suite rados means run all jobs at https://github.com/ceph/ceph-qa-suite/tree/master/suites/rados
• --suite-branch a reference to the ceph-qa-suite branch to use. For instance --suite rados --suite-branch giant means run all jobs at https://github.com/ceph/ceph-qa-suite/tree/giant/suites/rados instead of https://github.com/ceph/ceph-qa-suite/tree/master/suites/rados
• --priority is the the priority of the job in the queue (lower numbers are higher priority). By default it is 1000 and if nothing is urgent it should be used. If in the process of debugging a single job that fails, the priority 101 can be used so that it is scheduled faster.
• --machine-type is the kind of machine that will be provisionned to run the tests. Use plana,burnupi,mira for bare metal or vps for virtual machines.
• --ceph is the branch of the Ceph repository to use and defaults to master. For instance --ceph giant means use https://github.com/ceph/ceph/tree/giant/ instead of https://github.com/ceph/ceph/tree/master/
• --owner will be used when locking the machines for the tests. It is useful for the system administrator when things go wrong: (s)he know who is using the machines and can get in touch, for instance to ask permission to cancel a run.
• --email when the run is complete an email will be sent to this address with a summary of the results.

Re-scheduling failed or dead jobs from an existing suite¶

• Ask https://github.com/ceph/paddles (the server in which suite runs are stored) about the dead jobs
  

  run=loic-2015-03-23_01:09:31-rados-giant---basic-multi
  eval filter=$(curl --silent http://paddles.front.sepia.ceph.com/runs/$run/jobs/?status=dead | jq '.[].description' | while read description ; do echo -n $description, ; done | sed -e 's/,$//')
  

  
  or the fail jobs:
  

  run=loic-2015-03-23_01:09:31-rados-giant---basic-multi
  eval filter=$(curl --silent http://paddles.front.sepia.ceph.com/runs/$run/jobs/?status=fail | jq '.[].description' | while read description ; do echo -n $description, ; done | sed -e 's/,$//')
  

• Re-run the suite using the same command line without --filter-out and with --filter "$filter" to only schedule the jobs described in the fitler variable
  

  ./virtualenv/bin/teuthology-suite --filter "$filter" --priority 1000 --suite rados --suite-branch giant --machine-type plana,burnupi,mira --distro ubuntu --email loic@dachary.org --owner loic@dachary.org --ceph giant
  

Killing a suite¶

• if the run is scheduled but did not start yet:
  • teuthology-kill -m multi -r loic-2015-03-27_09:57:09-upgrade:firefly-x:stress-split-erasure-code-hammer if the suite was scheduled with --machine-type plana,burnupi,mira
  • teuthology-kill -m vps -r loic-2015-03-27_09:57:09-upgrade:firefly-x:stress-split-erasure-code-hammer if the suite was scheduled with --machine-type vps
• if the run already started the -m option is not necessary
  • teuthology-kill -r loic-2015-03-27_09:57:09-upgrade:firefly-x:stress-split-erasure-code-hammer
