QA:Testcase nfs generic

Description

This test case is to run LTP filesystem tests on a NFSv4 root

How to test

You can run both NFS server and client on the same system or use different systems. First, configure the NFS server.

1. Export a NFS mount.

   cp /etc/exports /etc/exports.orig

   echo '/nfs *(rw,insecure,no_root_squash)' >/etc/exports

   mkdir /nfs

   service nfs restart

From a client,

1. Mount the NFS directory to /tmp on the client, since tests will manipulate files in that directory.

   mount -t nfs4 <server IP>:/nfs /tmp

2. Download LTP testsuite from the client.

   wget -c 'http://sourceforge.net/projects/ltp/files/LTP%20Source/OLD-ltp-20090731/ltp-full-20090731.tgz/download'

3. Install dependencies to compile LTP.

   yum -y install procmail flex bison kernel-devel

4. From the client system, run LTP filesystems tests.

   tar zxvf ltp-full-20090731.tgz

   cd ltp-full-20090731

   ./configure

   make

   make install

   ./runltp -p -d /tmp -l /tmp/ltp.log -o /tmp/ltp.run.log -f fs

5. Save the output from the tests to TESTOUT.log, copy /var/log/messages from both the server and client, and then tar and compress them together with /tmp/ltp.log and /tmp.ltp.run.log to upload it to the wiki. Please include a link to the uploaded file in your test day results.

   mkdir log

   scp root@<server hostname>:/var/log/messages messages.server

   cp TESTOUT.log messages.server /var/log/messages /tmp/ltp*.log log/

   tar czvf /tmp/nfs_generic-results.tgz log/

6. Cleanup.

   umount /tmp

Expected Results

1. Step #1 completes without error.
2. Step #2 completes without error.
3. Step #3 completes without error.
4. The testsuite finishes without error.
5. Step #5 completes without error.
6. Step #6 completes without error.
