Solution Setup Overview 

Below is a list of all the different components in this solution and how they are utilized:

Cloud Platform

The RH-OSP13

will be deployed in large scale and utilized as the cloud platform. 

Compute

Nodes 

The compute nodes will be configured and deployed as

“Media Compute Nodes”, adjusted for low latency virtual media applications

. Each Compute/Controller node is equipped with a dual-port 100GB NIC of which one port is dedicated for VXLAN tenant network and the other for VLAN Multicast tenant network, Storage, Control, and PTP time synchronization.

Packet Pacing is enabled on the NIC ports specifically to allow MC (MultiCast) Pacing on the VLAN Tenant

Network.

Network

The different network components used in this user guide are configured in the following way:

• Multiple racks interconnected via Spine/Leaf network architecture
• Composable routed provider networks are used per rack
• Compute nodes on different provider network segments will host local DHCP agent instances per openstack subnet segment. 
• L3 OSPF underlay is used to route between the provider routed networks (another fabric-wide IGP can be used as desired)
• Multicast
  • VLAN tenant network is used for Multicast media traffic and will utilize SR-IOV on the VM 
  • IP-PIM (Sparse Mode) is used for routing the tenant Multicast streams between the racks which are located in routed provider networks
  • IGMP snooping is used to manage the tenant multicast groups in the same L2 racks domain
• Unicast  
  • ASAP²-enabled Compute nodes are located in different racks and maintain VXLAN tunnels as overlay for tenant VM traffic
  • The VXLAN tenant network is used for Unicast media traffic and will utilize ASAP²  to offload the CPU-intensive VXLAN traffic, in order to avoid the encapsulation/decapsulation performance penalty and achieve the optimum throughput
• Openstack Neutron is used as an SDN controller. All network configuration for every openstack node will be done via Openstack orchestration
• RHOSP inbox drivers are used on all infrastructure components except for VM guests

Time Synchronization

Time Synchronization will be configured in the following way:

• linuxptp tools are used on compute nodes and application VMs
• PTP traffic is untagged on the compute nodes
• Onyx Switches propagate the time between the compute nodes and act as PTP Boundary Clock devices
• One of the switches is used as PTP master clock (in real-life deployments a dedicated grand master should be used)
• KVM virtual PTP driver is used by the VMs to pull the PTP time from their hosting hypervisor which is synced to the PTP clock source

Media Application

NVIDIA provides a Rivermax VM cloud image which includes all Rivermax tools and applications.

The Rivermax VM

provides a demonstration of the media test application and allows the user to

validate compliance

with the relevant media standards, i.e 

SMPTE 2110 (an evaluation License is required).

In order to To enable and configure itSRIOV, insert the Compute NIC into a test server with an OS installed OS, and follow the below steps below:

1. Run the following to verify that the firmware version is 16.21.2030 or

1. later:

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark
   [root@host ~]# ethtool -i ens2f0 driver: mlx5_core version: 5.0-0 firmware-version: 16.22.1002 (MT_0000000009) expansion-rom-version: bus-info: 0000:07:00.0 supports-statistics: yes supports-test: yes supports-eeprom-access: no supports-register-dump: no supports-priv-flags: yes

1. 
   If the firmware version is older, download and burn the new firmware as

1. described here

   
   

2. Install the mstflint package:

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark
   [root@host ~]# yum install mstflint

3. Identify the PCI ID of the first 100G port and enable SRIOV:

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark
   [root@host ~]# lspci | grep -i mel 07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT28800 Family [ConnectX-5 Ex] 07:00.1 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT28800 Family [ConnectX-5 Ex] [root@host ~]# [root@host ~]# mstconfig -d 0000:07:00.0 query | grep -i sriov SRIOV_EN False(0) SRIOV_IB_ROUTING_MODE_P1 GID(0) SRIOV_IB_ROUTING_MODE_P2 GID(0) [root@host ~]# mstconfig -d 0000:07:00.0 set SRIOV_EN=1 Device #1: ---------- Device type: ConnectX5 PCI device: 0000:07:00.0 Configurations: Next Boot New SRIOV_EN False(0) True(1) Apply new Configuration? ? (y/n) [n] : y Applying... Done! -I- Please reboot machine to load new configurations.

4. Set the number of VFs to a high value, such as 64, and reboot the server to apply the new configuration:

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark
   [root@host ~]# mstconfig -d 0000:07:00.0 query | grep -i vfs NUM_OF_VFS 0 [root@host ~]# mstconfig -d 0000:07:00.0 set NUM_OF_VFS=64 Device #1: ---------- Device type: ConnectX5 PCI device: 0000:07:00.0 Configurations: Next Boot New NUM_OF_VFS 0 64 Apply new Configuration? ? (y/n) [n] : y Applying... Done! -I- Please reboot machine to load new configurations. [root@host ~]# reboot

5. Confirm the new settings were applied using the mstconfig query commands shown above.
6. Insert the NIC back to the Compute node.
7. Repeat the procedure above for every Compute node NIC used in our setup.

Accelerated RH-OSP Installation and Deployment

The following steps will take you through the accelerated RH-OSP installation and deployment procedure:

1. Install Red Hat 7.

5

1. 6 OS on the Undercloud server and set an IP

on

1. to its interface which is connected to the

External

1. external network; make sure it has internet connectivity.
2. Install the Undercloud and the director as instructed in section 4 of the Red Hat

OSP DIRECTOR INSTALLATION AND USAGE guide: 

1. OSP Director Installation and Usage - Red Hat Customer Portal

Our

1. . Our undercloud.conf file is attached as a reference

.

1. here: Configuration Files

2. Configure a container image source as instructed in section 5 of the above guide.

1. Our solution is using undercloud as a local registry.

   Note
   title Note
   The following overcloud image versions are used in our deployment: rhosp-director-images-13.0-20190418.1.el7ost.noarch rhosp-director-images-ipa-13.0-20190418.1.el7ost.noarch rhosp-director-images-ipa-x86_64-13.0-20190418.1.el7ost.noarch rhosp-director-images-x86_64-13.0-20190418.1.el7ost.noarch The overcloud image is RH 7.6 with kernel 3.10.0-957.10.1.el7.x86_64

2. Register the nodes of the overcloud as instructed in section 6.1.

1.  Our instackenv.json file is attached as a reference.

2. Inspect the hardware of the nodes as instructed in section 6.2.
   Once introspection is completed, it is recommended to confirm for each node that the desired root disk was detected since cloud deployment can fail later because of insufficient disk space. Use the following command to check the free space on the detected disk selected as root:

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark
   (undercloud) [stack@rhosp-director ~]$ openstack baremetal node show 92c4c1cb-ce7d-48d4-a2d9-75b2651db097 | grep properties | properties | {u'memory_mb': u'131072', u'cpu_arch': u'x86_64', u'local_gb': u'418', u'cpus': u'24', u'capabilities': u'boot_option:local'}

   “local_gb” value is representing the disk size. In case the disk size is low and not as expected, use the procedure described in section 6.6 for defining the root disk for the node. Note that an additional introspection cycle is required for this node after the root disk is changed.

3. Verify that all nodes were registered properly and changed their state to “available” before proceeding to the next step:

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark
   +--------------------------------------+--------------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+ | UUID | Name | Instance UUID | Power State | Provisioning State | Maintenance | +--------------------------------------+--------------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+ | d1fca940-e341-491b-8afd-0cf6d748aa29 | controller-1 | None | power off | available | False | | 6b24d02c-3fd2-4e55-a730-c45008f01723 | controller-2 | None | power off | available | False | | 098c3e2d-1c70-41d2-983b-6c266387de0b | controller-3 | None | power off | available | False | | 91492c2a-b26c-49ef-9d4e-e492a1578076 | compute-1 | None | power off | available | False | | cdf9e0ec-e3cb-4005-86f6-d40e684a9b19 | compute-2 | None | power off | available | False | | 92c4c1cb-ce7d-48d4-a2d9-75b2651db097 | compute-3 | None | power off | available | False | | bb5e829a-834b-4eb1-b733-0012ce9d5f00 | compute-4 | None | power off | available | False | +--------------------------------------+--------------+---------------+-------------+--------------------+-------------+

Tagging Nodes into Profiles

The next step is to Tag the nodes into profiles

1. Tag the controllers nodes into “control” default profile:

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark
   (undercloud) [stack@rhosp-director ~]$ openstack baremetal node set --property capabilities='profile:control,boot_option:local' controller-1 (undercloud) [stack@rhosp-director ~]$ openstack baremetal node set --property capabilities='profile:control,boot_option:local' controller-2 (undercloud) [stack@rhosp-director ~]$ openstack baremetal node set --property capabilities='profile:control,boot_option:local' controller-3

   
   

2. Create two new compute flavors -- one per rack (compute-r1, compute-r2) -- and attach the flavors to profiles with a correlated name:

Rivermax Environment Configuration file:

The provided /home/stack/templates/rivermax-env.yaml file is used to configure the Compute nodes for low latency applications with HW offload:

• ens1f0 is used for accelerated VXLAN data plane (Nova physical_network: null is required for VXLAN offload)

• CPU isolation: cores 2-5,12-17 are isolated from Hypervisor and 2-5,12-15 will be used by Rivermax VMs. cores 16,17 are excluded from Nova and will be used exclusively for running linuxptp tasks on the compute node

  ens1f1 is used for vlan traffic

  • Each compute node role is associated with a dedicated physical network to be used later on for multi-segment network, notice that  Nova PCI white list physical network remains the same.

  • VF function #1 is excluded from Nova PCI white list (will be used for Hypervisor VF for PTP traffic).

• userdata_disable_service.yaml is called to disable chrony(ntp) service on overcloud nodes during compute - this is required for stable PTP setup.

• ExtraConfig for mapping Role config params to the correct network set, and for setting Firewall rules allowing PTP traffic to the compute nodes

Deploying the

Overcloud

Using the provided configuration and environment files, the cloud will be deployed

utilizing:

• 3 controllers associated with Rack 1 networks
• 2 Compute nodes associated with Rack 1 (provider network 1)
• 2 Compute nodes associated with Rack 2 (provider network 2)
• Routes to allow connectivity between racks/networks
• VXLAN overlay tunnels between all the nodes

Before starting the deployment, verify connectivity between the racks' Leaf switches SW vlan interfaces facing the nodes over the OSPF underlay fabric. Without inter-rack connectivity for all networks, the overcloud deployment will fail.

To start the overcloud deployment, issue the command below: 

(undercloud) [stack@rhosp-director templates]$ openstack overcloud deploy --templates /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates \
--libvirt-type kvm \
-n /home/stack/templates/network_data_rivermax.yaml \

Rivermax Application Testing - Use Case 1:

Note

In the following section we use Rivermax application VMs created on 2 media compute nodes located in different network racks.

First we will lock on the PTP clock generated by the Onyx switches and propagated into the VMs via KVM vPTP driver.

Next we will generate media standards compliant stream on VM1 and validate compliance using

Mellanox

NVIDIA Rivermax AnalyzeX tool on VM2. The Multicast stream generated by VM1 will traverse over the network using PIM-SM and will be received by VM2 who joined the group. Please notice this stream contains RTP header (including 1 SRD) for each packet and comply with known media RFCs, however the RTP payload is 0 so it is cannot be visually displayed.

In the last step we will decode and stream a real video file on VM1 and play it in the receiver VM2

using

graphical interface using NVIDIA Rivermax Simple Viewer tool.

1. Upload rivermax and analyzex license files to the Rivermax VMs and place it under /opt/mellanox/rivermx directory.

2. On both VMs run the following command to

sync the system time from PTP Info

title	Note

Notice the phc2sys is running on a dedicated VM core 1 (which is isolated from the hypervisor) and applied on ptp2 device. In some cases the ptp devices names in the VM will be different.

Ignore the "clock is not adjustable" message when applying the command below.

 

Low and stable offset values will indicate a lock.

Important: Verify the freq values in the output below are close to the values seen in the compute node level. If not, use in the phc2sys command a different ptp device that is available in the VM system.

1. sync the system time from PTP:

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark

phc2sys[2799.730]: phc offset 10 s2 freq +14567 delay 951

1. phc2sys[2799.730]: phc offset 10 s2 freq +14567 delay 951

   Notice the phc2sys is running on a dedicated VM core 1 (which is isolated from the hypervisor) and applied on ptp2 device. In some cases the ptp devices names in the VM will be different.

   Ignore the "clock is not adjustable" message when applying the command.

   Low and stable offset values will indicate a lock.

   Info
   title Note
   Important: Verify the freq values in the output are close to the values seen in the compute node level (see above where we performed the command on host). If not, use in the phc2sys command a different /dev/ptp device that is available in the VM system.

Rivermax Application Testing - Use Case 2

In the following section we use the same Rivermax application VMs that were created on 2 remote media compute nodes to generate a Unicast stream between the VMs over VXLAN overlay network.

After validating the PTP clock is locked, we will start the stream and monitor it with the same tools.

The Unicast stream generated by VM1 will create vxlan OVS flow that will be offloaded to the NIC HW.

1. Make sure rivermax and analyzex license files are placed on the Rivermax VMs as instructed in Use Case 1.

2. Make sure the system time on both VMs is updated from PTP as instructed in Use Case 1.

   Code Block

4. On VM1 generate the media stream using Rivermax media_sender application - use the unicast SDP file you created in previous step

   Code Block
   language text theme RDark
   # ./media_sender -c 2 -a 3 -s sdp_hd_video_audio -m

5. On receiver VM2 run the Rivermax rx_hello_wolrd application with the local VXLAN interface IP

   Info
