Errors:1, Errors:Failed on DS3 DB check. Could not complete setup for the following 1 Wklds DS3DB tile0 failed setup

[daonemaster]

any ideas ?

Hi, could you please perform the following steps so we can troubleshoot further?

1. From your primeclient VM, attach the VMmark3.properties you used to run the benchmark (/root/VMmark3/VMmark3.properties)

2. From your primeclient VM, ZIP and attach the configfiles subdirectory from your most recent run:

cd /root/VMmark3/results/Results_2018* (note: make sure you choose the most recent failed run directory)

zip -r /root/configfiles.zip configfiles

Then attach the resulting /root/configfiles.zip

3. From your DS3DB0 VM, attach the output of these commands:

cd /root/VMmark3/client/DS3DB

./DS3_checker.sh

[daonemaster]

please standby ...

Thank you for taking a look and would love to get to the finish line.  lol

The problem is that the DS3 database never completely got built.  Per the below output from ConfigDS3DB_0.txt, the reviewshelpfulness table failed the check (this is the longest step in the database creation process):

Checking the contents of Tables = reviewshelpfulness

ERROR:  DS3 value check failed.

============================================================================

FAIL:  DS3 is either not built completely or not in initialized state.

04:50:18 PM: DS3 checker script finished..

04:50:18 PM: DS3 DB check failed..

Per the User's Guide on page 50:

"Wait for the DS3DB0 creation process to complete; depending on your environment, this can take 12 hours or more. To determine if it’s complete, follow these steps:

a     In a terminal window on the prime client, run the following command:
ssh <DS3DB0-IP-address> ‘tail -f /ds3/VMmark3-DS3installoutput.txt’

(where <DS3DB0-IP-address> is the IP address of the DS3DB0 VM, which can be found in the hosts-stub.txt file referenced above).

b      Watch for the following text: VMmark3 DS3DB Setup Completed : Rebooting"

Unfortunately, I think you'll need to re-provision your tile 0 again, and wait until you see the "DS3DB Setup Completed".

Your suggestion was correct and able to move to the next issue.  I'm now encountering a Client SSL handshake timed out: 22, Endpoint: ssl://Client0 and not able to generate a Score at the end of test.  I did run turbo on one report and the second on non turbo.

That error is very strange to be happening this far into the benchmark.

Here are some troubleshooting steps:

1. Attach the /etc/hosts from your PrimeClient VM

2. Before the benchmark, and after you see that error, run these commands from your PrimeClient VM:

[root@primeclient VMmark3]# staf client0 ping ping

[root@primeclient VMmark3]# ping -c 5 client0

3. If either of the commands from step 2 fail, can you check to see whether the Client0 VM is still powered on?  If not, look at vCenter to see if/why that VM got powered off.

Finally, please check that these hosts/VMs are on an isolated/private network (i.e. no DHCP servers or other VMs/hosts that could potentially cause IP address conflicts).
