SkiaPerf Server

Reads Skia performance data from databases and serves interactive dashboards for easy exploration and annotations.

Server Setup

Please refer to compute_engine_scripts/perfserver/README under the repo for instructions on creating and destroying the instance. The rest of this document is what to do once the instance is created.

gcutil --project=google.com:skia-buildbots addinstance skia-perf-b
--zone=us-central2-b --external_ip_address=108.170.220.208
--service_account=default
--service_account_scopes=“bigquery,storage-full”
--network=default --machine_type=n1-standard-1 --image=backports-debian-7-wheezy-v20140605
--persistent_boot_disk

SSH into the instance

gcutil --project=google.com:skia-buildbots ssh --ssh_user=default skia-perf-b

Do the first time

The following things only need to be done once.

1. SSH into the server as default.
2. sudo apt-get install git
3. git clone https://skia.googlesource.com/buildbot
4. cd ~/buildbot/perf/server/setup
5. ./perf_setup.sh

Change /etc/monit/monitrc to:

set daemon 2

then run the following so it applies:

sudo /etc/init.d/monit restart

Then restart squid to pick up the new config file:

sudo /etc/init.d/squid3 restart

This means that monit will poll every two seconds that our application is up and running.

To update the code

1. SSH into the server as default.
2. cd ~/buildbot/perf/server/setup
3. git pull
4. ./perf_setup.sh
