Hi Guys, So, I'm done with my patch: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/55146 1. ping an external IP 2. ping a url to test the dns 3. check VM's resolve.conf 4. change the dns server and recheck resolve.conf
My issue now (same as before) is that this test cannot be executed (and therefore pass) on the gate unless the gate is configured for external connectivity. A. How do I get the neutron gate to allow it's VM external connectivity (i.e. ping 8.8.8.8)? Considering Jeremy's comment, I agree that depending on external ip/url introduces an unnecessary point of failure. However IMO, using multiple addresses is not the best way to proceed , I'd rather test against a local node. Therefore: B. Can I get the neutron gate to enter it's own (local) DNS server? A local url? C. I this a change I can push to some project by myself, or do I need someone to change this for me (infra?)? I would really like your input in this matter, as I am in the final stretch of this patch and cannot move any farther by myself Regards Yair Fried ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeremy Stanley" <fu...@yuggoth.org> To: openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org Sent: Thursday, November 21, 2013 12:17:52 AM Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [Openstack][qa][Tempest][Network] Test for external connectivity On 2013-11-20 14:07:49 -0800 (-0800), Sean Dague wrote: > On 11/18/2013 02:41 AM, Yair Fried wrote: > [...] > > 2. add fields in tempest.conf for > > * external connectivity = False/True > > * external ip to test against (ie 8.8.8.8) > > +1 for #2.

[...] Having gone down this path in the past, I suggest the test check for no fewer than three addresses, sending several probes to each, and be considered successful if at least one gets a response. -- Jeremy Stanley _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
