Rally

Multiple possible networks found

Asked by Rajeev

Hi,

I'm using Rally to benchmark openstack cloud(installed with packstack script on a VM).

Few of the nova scenarios fail due to: "multiple possible networks found.use a Network ID to be more specific" in spite of mentioning the start_cidr option under networks or providing "auto_assign_nic" option.

example:

"network": {
    "start_cidr": "10.20.0.2/24",
   "networks_per_tenant": 1,
}

or
"args": {
    "auto_assign_nic": true

Few scenarios work well with the above 2 options, but few of them error's out even after providing either of the above options. I have tried mentioning the "nics: net-id" option in the json file, but with no luck.

Can someone help me resolve the issue.

Thanks,
Rajeev

Different scenarios have different arguments. Please check expected arguments for the particular scenario at http://rally.readthedocs.io/en/0.8.1/plugins/plugin_reference.html#scenarios .

For example, let's compare two scenarios:

- http://rally.readthedocs.io/en/0.8.1/plugins/plugin_reference.html#novaservers-boot-and-list-server-scenario
- http://rally.readthedocs.io/en/0.8.1/plugins/plugin_reference.html#novakeypair-boot-and-delete-server-with-keypair-scenario

The first one accepts the argument for server creation as keyword arguments. It means that in task you can specify your option like "args": {"auto_assign_nic": true} and it will work. The second scenario creates multiple entities and server creation arguments should be specified via boot_server_kwargs parameter, like "args": {"boot_server_kwargs" : {"auto_assign_nic": true}}

Can you help with this problem?
