Using multi scenarios to generate load
Use Case
Rally should be able to generate real life load. Simultaneously create load on different components of OpenStack, e.g. simultaneously booting VM, uploading image and listing users.
Problem Description
At the moment Rally is able to run only 1 scenario per benchmark. Scenario are quite specific (e.g. boot and delete VM for example) and can't actually generate real life load.
Writing a lot of specific benchmark scenarios that will produce more real life load will produce mess and a lot of duplication of code.
Possible solution
- Extend Rally task benchmark configuration in such way to support passing multiple benchmark scenarios in single benchmark context
- Extend Rally task output format to support results of multiple scenarios in single benchmark separately.
- Extend rally task plot2html and rally task detailed to show results separately for every scenario.
