Usage
JSON
{

"type": "action",
"provider": {
"type": "python",
"module": "chaosazure.machine.actions",
"func": "network_latency"
}
}
YAML
name: network-latency
provider:
func: network_latency
module: chaosazure.machine.actions
type: python
type: action
Arguments
Name | Type | Default | Required | Title | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
filter | string | null | No | Filter | Target filter selector |
duration | integer | 60 | No | Duration | How long to apply latency for |
delay | integer | 200 | No | Delay | Delay to add in milliseconds |
jitter | integer | 50 | No | Jitter | Extra jitter to add to the delay in milliseconds |
timeout | integer | 60 | No | Timeout | Completion timeout |
filter (str, optional): Filter the virtual machines. If the filter is omitted all machines in the subscription will be selected as potential chaos candidates.
duration (int, optional): How long the latency lasts. Defaults to 60 seconds.
timeout (int): Additional wait time (in seconds) for filling operation to be completed. Getting and sending data from/to Azure may take some time so it’s not recommended to set this value to less than 30s. Defaults to 60 seconds.
delay (int): Added delay in ms. Defaults to 200.
jitter (int): Variance of the delay in ms. Defaults to 50.
Examples
Some calling examples. Deep dive into the filter syntax:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/kusto/query/
# Increase the latency of all machines from the group 'rg'
> network_latency("where resourceGroup=='rg'", configuration=c,
secrets=s)
# Increase the latecy of the machine from the group 'rg' having the name 'name'
> network_latency("where resourceGroup=='rg' and name='name'",
configuration=c, secrets=s)
# Increase the latency of two machines at random from the group 'rg'
> network_latency("where resourceGroup=='rg' | sample 2",
configuration=c, secrets=s)
