=== Setup harness server ===
==== OS Installation ====
The Linux distribution installed upon harness server during the creation of this document was Ubuntu yakkety.
 
===== Important facts upon installation =====
During Installation process of Ubuntu It'll be requested the creation of a user, please create the user with the name '''''tester'''''. Additionally the computer name will have to be '''''testing-harness'''''.
 
When installation has finished. The 'sudo group' has to be enabled as passwordless upon file '/etc/sudoers'.
<pre>
# Allow members of group sudo to execute any command
%sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
</pre>
 
It is important to denote that user tester has been set as part of 'sudo group' by the default Ubuntu installation.
'''''With user tester is going to be executed the overall of automated testing'''''.
 
===== Ram and Disk distribution =====
The Ram and Disk details this harness server during the creation of this document were:

</pre>
 
==== Firewall configuration ====
Firewall configuration is not provided, it is recommended that the testing harness is only kept in a trusted network.
 
To check if no firewall are configured over testing-harness, we can expect a similar output when inquiring iptables...
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# iptables -L && iptables -t nat -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target    prot opt source              destination       
 
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target    prot opt source              destination       
 
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target    prot opt source              destination       
 
Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target    prot opt source              destination       
 
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target    prot opt source              destination       
 
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target    prot opt source              destination       
 
Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target    prot opt source              destination       
</pre>
 
==== Setup Security shell ====
OpenSSH is a freely available version of the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol family of tools for remotely controlling, or transferring files between, computers. That's why it is required its installation upon testing-harness server.
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# aptitude install openssh-server
</pre>
 
==== Setup NFS ====
AFT applies Network file system to share /home/tester directory where images and other files used in flashing for PC-devices within AFT net can be found.
 
===== NFS is installed ? =====
To check if the NFS server is installed, we can do...
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# dpkg -l | grep nfs-kernel-server
</pre>
 
===== How to install NFS ? =====
To install NFS these are the required packages...
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# aptitude install nfs-kernel-server
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  keyutils{a} libnfsidmap2{a} libtirpc1{a} nfs-common{a} nfs-kernel-server
  rpcbind{a}
0 packages upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 459 not upgraded.
Need to get 470 kB of archives. After unpacking 1 884 kB will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?]
</pre>
 
===== Sharing /home/tester directory =====
The tester’s home will be set as shared directory
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# cd /etc
root@testing-harness:~# echo '/home/tester 192.168.1.0/24 (crossmnt,ro,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)' >> exports
</pre>
 
==== Setup DNS cache and DHCP server for AFT net ====
DNSmasq provides two services, either of which can be used independently.
# DNS service
# DHCP service
 
A local DNS cache can speed up internet browsing because the user's applications will not need to access a domain name server when it looks up a domain name the computer has visited before.
 
===== How to install dnsmasq ? =====
To install dnsmasq these are the required packages...
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# aptitude  install dnsmasq
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  dns-root-data{a} dnsmasq dnsmasq-base{a}
0 packages upgraded, 3 newly installed, 0 to remove and 459 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/329 kB of archives. After unpacking 886 kB will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?
</pre>
At the sametime we have set up a simple DNS server. To test it, use your favorite DNS lookup tool pointed at localhost
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# nslookup yoctoproject.org localhost
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1#53
 
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: yoctoproject.org
Address: 140.211.169.56
</pre>
 
===== Configure DHCP server =====
To enable the DHCP server of AFT net, you will need to give it a range of IP addresses to hand out. The AFT net server would hand out 92 address starting at 192.168.1.2 and ending at 192.168.1.99.
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# echo 'dhcp-range=192.168.1.2,192.168.1.99,10m' >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf
</pre>
 
To tell dnsmasq which ethernet interface it can and cannot listen on.
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# echo 'interface=eno1' >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf
</pre>
During the creation of this document the interface eno1 is the unique one connected to AFT net.
 
===== AFT and its relation with dnsmasq.leases =====
As of dhcp server is up and running. AFT shall utilize dhcp-server's active ip leasing information to determine device IP address of PC-devices over AFT net. By default it is found upon /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# cat /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases
 
1417132679 78:c5:e5:b4:4d:07 192.168.1.99 minox-fbe390b0bb404da *
1417134678 20:54:76:e4:d8:a5 192.168.1.57 minoy-ab6e5d0a524c9c7d *
......
.......
........ and so on...
</pre>
Above a common dnsmasq.leases file.
 
=== Setup USB stick ===
==== Write support image on USB stick ====
A Debian operative system is used as support image for minnowboard. As of the memory stick is connected, it is required to verify how it was detected by OS. It is simple by using dmesg command.
 
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# dmesg
[354629.272050] usb 3-6: Product: ADATA USB Flash Drive
[354629.272051] usb 3-6: Manufacturer: ADATA
[354629.272052] usb 3-6: SerialNumber: 25C1008050080204
[354629.272594] usb-storage 3-6:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected
[354629.272701] scsi host7: usb-storage 3-6:1.0
[354630.271607] scsi 7:0:0:0: Direct-Access    ADATA    USB Flash Drive  1.00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 6
[354630.271921] sd 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0
[354630.272050] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] 30310400 512-byte logical blocks: (15.5 GB/14.5 GiB)
[354630.272189] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off
[354630.272192] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 23 00 00 00
[354630.272329] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: disabled, read cache: disabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA
[354630.278200]  sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sdb3
[354630.279114] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk
</pre>
 
From this point onwards we are ready to record the image over USB stick
<pre>
root@testing-harness:~# wget -qO- $CI_SUPPORT_IMAGES_URL/minnowUSB.image.tar.gz | gunzip | tar -xOvf - | dd of=/dev/sdb
root@testing-harness:~# sync
</pre>
 
Now Reboot the device and from BIOS menu select EFI USB Device from Boot Manager option.
 
==== Stuff available and steady configurations on support image ====
 
We should find these directories upon /mnt. The first one is utilized to mount the network share directory /home/tester of testing-harness
<pre>
root@Debian-Minnowmax:~# ls /mnt
img_data_nfs  super_target_root  target_root
</pre>
 
We should find firmware required for Realtek Ethernet card that is utilizing minnow-board max
<pre>
root@Debian-Minnowmax:~# dpkg -l firmware-realtek*
</pre>
 
The support image can be accessed over SSH without a password (it was achieved by injecting a known public SSH-key to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys). In other hand, config file contains info about the private key to be used when connecting with other hosts.
<pre>
root@Debian-Minnowmax:~# ls .ssh
authorized_keys  config  id_rsa_testing_harness.pub  id_rsa_testing_harness
</pre>
 
Additionally we should find the following debian packages installed.
<pre>
root@Debian-Minnowmax:~# dpkg -l nfs-common nfs-server bmap-tools openssh-server vim python python-pip vim bash-completion
nano initramfs-tools net-tools ntp locales parted attr tree
</pre>
 
==== Required configurations on support image ====
 
===== Logging on support image =====
As of support image has booted, it is posible to login as '''root''' by typing the password '''rootme'''
 
===== Mounting harness shared directory '/home/tester' =====
Edit /etc/fstab to mount remote directory ''tester'' at every time when booting operative system.
 
<pre>
192.168.1.1:/home/tester /mnt/img_data_nfs nfs    rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr,nolock,auto
</pre>
 
===== Change network device name from eth1 back to eth0 =====
The interface name of a network device increases if the mac address of the physical network card changes. A common case is when booting a computer with an image created over a different one. It is to fix it by editing  ''''/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules'''', (Copy the new mac address to the line of your eth0 rule and delete the new rule for eth1).
<pre>
# PCI device 0x15ad:0x07b0 (r8169)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:50:56:b2:23:e0",
ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
</pre>
