Following frequency change in the pipeline, we observed degraded UL channel
conditions resulting in low UL throughput. Increasing attenuation on the gNB
side was found to mitigate this issue by improving UL channel quality
and reducing UL noise power.
Increase tested UL and DL bitrates in OAIUE pipeline.
With the server object to be passed into ping test, it's not necessary
to either hardcode an IP address or provide a template. Instead, always
fill the IP address, which simplies the Ping() code.
Verify that we don't have an IP address/hardcoded by throwing an
assertion.
- Use scripts to deploy OpenShift-based 5GC in ci_infra.yaml
- Use for oc-cn5g, oc-cn5g-20897, and oc-cn5g-20897-aerial2
for (un)deployment, ping, iperf in relevant XML files
- Convert hardcoded IP addresses to %cn_ip%
In CI we sometimes encouter fail of the gNB/UE deployment (and fail of
the pipeline) caused by unsuccsessful initialization of the USRP N310.
Restart the container if the health check fails during initialization.
Introduce a configurable parameter (from XML) to set max number of
attempts for the container deployment.
Store logs from failed deployment attempts.
- pass parameter directly instead of indirectly via class
- harmonize to svr_id to read through common code in the next commits
- pass images to express which images will be deleted
- refactor function to use "with" for cls_cmd, and return success (or
not)
- reuse cls_containerize.Containerize.PullImage()
- pass parameter directly instead of indirectly via class
- always read node name and use this instead of "sometimes" looking it
up from a class member. With "sometimes" I mean that if no node name
is given, it will take it from self.eNBIPAddress, which is confusing
at best if we can give the node name directly
- consistently put the node name in the xml file
Use a script, which can be tested independently of CI code (by running
it on the host on which it will be used), and print the directory that
has been prepared in the HTML. Also, in the description, use the
infinitive/imperative(?) of the verb to harmonize with other steps.
Create_Workspace is used used in XML files instead of directly being
executed in DeployObject(). This can be problematic if we deploy
multiple services on the same host, since a previous workspace will be
deleted. Also, it removes futile git clones.
There are other XML steps (CppCheckAnalysis, LicenceAndFormattingCheck,
BuildImage, BuildProxy, BuildClusterImage) that implicitly called
Create_Workspace. Those calls have been removed and care has been taken
to insert the corresponding Create_Workspace steps in the XML.
