Rally job

We provide, with Watcher, a Rally plugin you can use to benchmark the optimization service.

To launch this task with configured Rally you just need to run:

rally task start watcher/rally-jobs/watcher.yaml

Structure

• plugins - directory where you can add rally plugins. Almost everything in Rally is a plugin. Benchmark context, Benchmark scenario, SLA checks, Generic cleanup resources, ....
• extra - all files from this directory will be copy pasted to gates, so you are able to use absolute paths in rally tasks. Files will be located in ~/.rally/extra/*
• watcher.yaml is a task that is run in gates against OpenStack deployed by DevStack
