Thank you for sharing this and helping us make the testbed better. It was a bug. A fix has been deployed. Could you please delete the slice which has FABNetv6Ext and recreate it again?

Thanks,
Komal

Testbed is open for use. GATech, FIU and GPN sites are still in maintenance. We would update once GATech, FIU and GPN are open.

Maintenance is completed. Network AM has been updated.

Hi Praveen,

This error is unrelated to the number of user’s dead/closed slices. The slice requested by Manas, was requesting VMs on UCSD rack and specific workers: ucsd-w7.fabric-testbed.net, ucsd-w8.fabric-testbed.net, ucsd-w9.fabric-testbed.net.

UCSD rack has only 6 workers, so the slice could not be allocated and the error “Insufficient Resources” was returned.

The closed/dead slices do not have any resources associated with them. They get cleared periodically. Slices Dead/Closing older than 30 days are removed automatically.

I was just trying to suggest that when your slice closes, it could be helpful to see a failure reason on the portal to modify the request accordingly as in this case ucsd-w9.fabric-testbed.net cannot accomodate the VMs requested. So altering your slice request would be helpful.

Thanks,
Komal

Hi Manas,

Could you please look for Closed/Dead slices on the portal to check the failure reason?

I looked some of the VMs requested by your slice were in Failed state with “Insufficient resources error”. Since VMs could not be provisioned, network is closed as the VMs which are pre-requisite for it are in failed state.

Maintenance is complete! Testbed is ready for use again!

[Komal Thareja]

We are still working on updating software. Apologies for the delay, we will notify once the maintenance is completed and testbed is available for use!

Thanks,

We have observed sometimes stale cookies in the browser result in this error. Generally opening in an incognito window clear this issue. We are looking at ways to clear stale cookies to avoid this to improve user experience.

We will keep you posted once a fix is deployed. Appreciate your feedback in helping us improve the testbed.

Thanks,

Hi Gregory,

Could you please try to download the tokens by opening the portal in an incognito window?

Thanks,
Komal

[Komal Thareja]

Maintenance is complete.

[Komal Thareja]

Maintenance is complete. Testbed is back online and ready to use.

[Komal Thareja]

Hi Nagmat,

We are currently under maintenance and will send out an update once the issue is resolved.

Thanks,
Komal

Maintenance on FABRIC-Testbed – 02/09/2022 (11:00am-1:00pm EST)

Hello Nagmat,

Could you please try creating your slice again?

The error you are observing is because VM creation failed before other resources could be requested to be provisioned. In this scenario, orchestrator triggers a Close for the rest of the resources and results: TicketReviewPolicy: Closing reservation due to failure in slice.

VM creation failed on UCSD because of PCI attach/detach due to a leaked VM. I have resolved that. Could you please try your slice again?

Thanks,
Komal

[Komal Thareja]

@Manas – Is it possible for you to span your slice across multiple sites instead of single site and use other network services FabNet or L2STS or L2PTP?

In the meanwhile, I will discuss this within our team and share our approach forward.
