aDock Step by Step (video tutorial)

19 February 2015

This screencast is meant to be a tutorial for aDock.

In this video we are connected via SSH to two servers and we run a simulation against both of them.
The first server deploys a ‘vanilla’ version of OpenStack.
The second one hosts nova-consolidator.
The simulation is 50 steps long and run against a 1+20 architecture.
Eventually, we provide a taste of how simulation data is displayed in real-time on Polyphemus.

The aDock deploy is divided in 6 phases:

  1. Start controller node on both servers;
  2. Start 20 compute nodes on both servers;
  3. Start Oscard on both servers (different oscard.conf files);
  4. Start Polyphemus on the first server (it could also happen on your laptop);
  5. Run simulation from the first server (it could also happen from your laptop);
  6. Open your browser and enjoy!
