[Fiware-testbed] Installation on the Testbed and procedures

[Miguel Carrillo]

Dear all,

As leader of the task D10.2 "FI-WARE Integration" and also from the coordination I'd like to make some clarifications of general interest.

As you know, WP10 (Experimentation Support, Integrated Testing and Validation) has as main task the set-up and running of the FI-WARE Testbed. Given the importance of this goal, WP10 has a representative of each partner. This representative (not the WPL) should make sure that all people within his/her company are well informed of the situation and what we expect from them in the Testbed and the experimentation stage. Several partners are not doing this work (in same cases never attended the WP10 phc) and the project coordination is receiving complaints as many people don't seem to be well informed. We sometimes resort to the WPL to help here, but this is not the "official" channel.

I will try to recap to give all the consortium an overview of the situation and what we need from you.

GENERAL INFO

  *   The Testbed Team is starting to send the details on how to install the testbed to the GE owners who declared that they are going to install their GE in July
  *   Theoretically you should install your GE yourselves but we can give a hand deploying a KVM image for those who prefer this method (other hypervisors are not supported)
  *   The GE owner is the one who administrates and maintains the GE, not the testbed team. If something goes wrong, he/she has to put it up and running again, the WP10 will only monitor the situation and will prompt about abnormal behaviour of the GE .
  *   We have two tools to follow this up:
     *   Implementation cockpit: https://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/testbed/index.php/Testbed_V1_Implementation_Cockpit
     *   Integration Tracker : https://forge.fi-ware.eu/tracker/?atid=224&group_id=18&func=browse
        *   Each release of each GE is represented by a ticket
        *   The use of this is explained here: https://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/testbed/index.php/Testbed_V1_Integration_Plan#Integration_Process
        *   If you do not have access to the testbed project and cannot reach this wiki and the tracker, request access following the standard procedure<https://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/How_to_join_a_FI-WARE_project_in_FusionForge>

REQUESTS FOR GE OWNERS

  *   We have an installation calendar. Please fill in the responsible person per GE and state the dates when you could install
     *   http://www.doodle.com/bymgm9h9gnbfms8k
  *   Fill the GE template in the Testbed Cockpit (https://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/testbed/index.php/Testbed_V1_Implementation_Cockpit ) declaring if the GE is multi-tenant or not (this deeply affects the GE usage by different Use case projects at the same time)
  *   The access to the Testbed is limited per IP. Make sure that the IPs from which you are going to access the Testbed are listed here (if not, you will not be able to enter the testbed):
     *   https://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/testbed/index.php/Testbed_V1_Implementation_Cockpit  (click on your enabler and see the wiki page with the details per enabler)
     *   Alternatively, there is also a page that has company wide IPs (not particular to an enabler): https://forge.fi-ware.eu/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/testbed/index.php/Testbed_V1_Operations_Cockpit
  *   Make sure that when you install your GE, you update the corresponding ticket on the Integration tracker and also the Implementation cockpit.

Best regards,

Miguel
