- RC-1/2 should be used in production environments and hence not execute destructive testing
- the Yardstick framework is hard to maintain → questionable if we want to re-active it
- key question: is resilience testing in the scope of RC-1/2
- CNTT specifies requirements on resilience → there is a need for validating such requirements via an automated test
- → we likely need such tests and then need to de-/select destructive tests depending on use case: workload onboarding (non-destructive) vs. OVP badging (destructive)
- Need to distinguish between HA and resiliency. A resilient system continues to function in case of a failure (we can limit to a single failure scenario)
- In a cloud environment one expects infrastructure failures and thus expect resiliency and HA from the software systems (OSTK, etc.) – # of deployments, etc.
- Recovery also needs to be taken into account. If the recovery impacts the workloads to the point where they are no longer functional, then it cannot be considered resilient
- RA1 Chapters 3 and 4 specify the services, # of minimum deployments, etc. to meet the requirements specified in Chapter 2; also review Ch5 (Thanks, Cedric)
- Opened CNTT Issue #2061 to make the network resiliency requirement more specific
