The document outlines the deployment process of a DPDK powered cloud using OpenDaylight and OpenStack, emphasizing the use of the Fuel deployment tool to simplify configuration and orchestration. Key steps include setting up the cloud environment, selecting appropriate nodes and hypervisors, and conducting health checks and benchmarking using Rally. The conclusion highlights the ease of setting up the cloud environment with minimal configuration and supports multiple deployments within a single environment.

Overview
! Stable deployment of OpenStack, OpenDayLight and DPDK
! Needed for development and Deployment
! Need to ease the deployment with minimal debugging
! OPNFV Fuel is a deployment tool which eases the task of
! Deploy and manage various OpenStack distributions
! Support third party plugins like OpenDayLight
! Abstracts out various configuration complexities ( Ex:- devstack)

4. Fuel
• Fuel is a OpenStack management Project developed by OpenStack
community
• GUI based – Ease of use
• Reduces complexity of deployment through orchestration of Operating
Systems
Other Alternatives
• OpenStack-ansible, OpenStack-Kolla and Devstack

Steps for the Installation and Deployment
1. Installation of Fuel Deployer
2. Deployment of Cloud Environment
1. Installation of Fuel Deployer
• Setup the Servers as per the required configuration
• Download the scripts from github which would help in installation
• Make the necessary changes with respect to Interface configuration
• Select the support for DPDK Installation
• Run the scripts in the order of the number

9. 2. Deployment of Cloud Enviroment
! Create the deployment and select the configuration
! Selection of Nodes (OpenDaylight Plugin is required)
! Network Connectivity Check
! Operating System orchestration
! OpenStack and OpenDayLight Installation with DPDK
! Tests for installation of Services

10. 1. Create the Cloud Environment ( Choose the
Operating System)
10

11. 2. Choose the appropriate Hypervisor
11

12. 3. Choose OpenDayLight as the Neutron backend
12

13. 4. Choose the Storage Backend
13

14. 5. After the Compute, Network and Storage options
are selected. Click “Create” to create deployment
14

15. 6. Addition of Nodes. Select a node as the
Controller Node
15

16. 7. Select One Node for OpenDaylight and Two other
as Compute Nodes
16

17. 8. Verify the Network Connectivity
17

18. Proceed to next stage only after the Network
verification is a Success

19. 9. Deployment – In “Dashboard” tab, click on
“Deploy Changes” to deploy the environment
19

20. 10. Check the Status of Deployment in the “Nodes”
tab
20

21. 11. Check the Health of the Environment
21

22. 12. Benchmarking the control plane (Openstack)
through Rally
Rally is a benchmarking tool for OpenStack
Rally automates and unifies multi-node OpenStack deployment, cloud
verification, benchmarking & profiling
22

23. Benchmarking
Login to the Controller node (IP address can be found from the Fuel GUI)
1. Source the Credentials – ( cmd - source openrc admin admin)
2. Create a Rally Deployment – (cmd – rally deployment create –fromenv –name=existing)
Check if the environment is healthy (cmd – rally deployment check)
Run the specific Rally task (cmd – rally task start samples/tasks/scenarios/nova/boot-and-
delete.json)
Generate the report – (cmd – rally task report --out=report1.html --open)
