Tweak the trove devstack plugin to force KVM if possible. This change is semi-experimental. I would like to see how it performs in the gate, it seems to be fine on my local machine. It takes some precautions to only force kvm if it is possible. In speaking with infra, there are also some known stability issues with kvm and part of the experiment here is to see what those are. The other part is to quantify the improvement that it brings to the trove gate. Change-Id: I209d3202b4f6414cd3430c11f2ccdb8d5b541d94
Enabling Trove in DevStack
To enable Trove in DevStack, perform the following steps:
Note: The python-troveclient is automatically installed. If you need to
control how the client gets installed, set the TROVECLIENT_REPO,
TROVECLIENT_DIR and TROVECLIENT_BRANCH environment variables appropriately.
Download DevStack
export DEVSTACK_DIR=~/devstack
git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack-dev/devstack.git $DEVSTACK_DIR
Enable the Trove plugin
Enable the plugin by adding the following section to
$DEVSTACK_DIR/local.conf
[[local|localrc]]
enable_plugin trove git://git.openstack.org/openstack/trove
Optionally, a git refspec (branch or tag or commit) may be provided as follows:
[[local|localrc]]
enable_plugin trove git://git.openstack.org/openstack/trove <refspec>
Run the DevStack utility
cd $DEVSTACK_DIR
./stack.sh
