Re: [Dime] [dime] #34: Semantics of OC-Report-Type AVP

[Maria Cruz Bartolome <[e-mail]>]

Lionel,

About first case:

- If the reacting node has received an indication only for Realm traffic Reduction, apply Realm reduction is for any message, with Destination-Realm and with/without Destination-Host 

I do not agree on this, since if Destination Host is used, there is no reason to throttle messages if this Host has not provided any OLR.
This is in line with the example used from the beginning:
---------
..we have two servers in a realm, S1 is not overloaded at all, S2 is 50% overloaded, and the aggregated realm overload is 25%. Why should a client do a 25% throttling when sending host type requests to the not at all overloaded S1?
What is wrong with letting the client
-not throttle host-type requests to S1,
-throttle host type request to S2 with 50% and
-throttle realm type requests wit 25%?
------------

And I think this is what JJ commented:
[JJ] there may be a misunderstanding somewhere, so good to try to clarify; coming back to Ulrich example, Host S1 is not overloaded, so reacting node has not received Host reduction OLR for S1. But as there  is a realm reduction, reacting node will reduce traffic with destination Host S1.

In my opinion, reducing traffic to S1 is wrong.

Hi maria-cruz,

JJ agreed on the following approach:

- If the reacting node has received an indication only for Realm traffic Reduction, apply Realm reduction is for any message, with Destination-Realm and with/without Destination-Host [JJ] there may be a misunderstanding somewhere, so good to try to clarify; coming back to Ulrich example, Host S1 is not overloaded, so reacting node has not received Host reduction OLR for S1. But as there  is a realm reduction, reacting node will reduce traffic with destination Host S1.
   
- If the reacting node has received an indication only for host traffic reduction, apply host reduction for messages containing a Destination-Host. No reduction for messages with only a Destination-Realm.
[JJ] OK
 
- If the reacting node has received both an indication for host traffic and for realm traffic reduction, only the realm reduction will apply for messages with only the Destination-Realm AVP and only the host reduction will apply for messages with the Destination-Host AVP (and the Destination-Realm AVP).
[JJ] OK, Host reduction prevails

In other words, as said earlier, the Host reduction prevails over realm reduction when the overloaded host is inside an overloaded realm and the reacting has received info about both type of overload.

What is the issue with this approach?

Regards,

Lionel

Hello,
I agree with JJ:

- If the reacting node has received an indication only for Realm traffic Reduction, apply Realm reduction is for any message, with Destination-Realm and with/without Destination-Host [JJ] there may be a misunderstanding somewhere, so good to try to clarify; coming back to Ulrich example, Host S1 is not overloaded, so reacting node has not received Host reduction OLR for S1. But as there  is a realm reduction, reacting node will reduce traffic with destination Host S1.

[MCruz] And... if the request is sent to a Destination-Host, if there is any applicable OLR, it will be received immediately in the answer, and will be applicable from next request on.
Simple and robust in my opinion. Then, we do not need to evaluate whether we have OLR for Realm and/or Host, and even check their validity & applicability.

I disagree and my proposal was somehow misunderstood.

I don't see the issue to have the following sequence:

- If the reacting node has received an indication only for Realm traffic Reduction, apply Realm reduction is for any message, with Destination-Realm and with/without Destination-Host [JJ] there may be a misunderstanding somewhere, so good to try to clarify; coming back to Ulrich example, Host S1 is not overloaded, so reacting node has not received Host reduction OLR for S1. But as there  is a realm reduction, reacting node will reduce traffic with destination Host S1.
   
- If the reacting node has received an indication only for host traffic reduction, apply host reduction for messages containing a Destination-Host. No reduction for messages with only a Destination-Realm.
[JJ] OK
 
- If the reacting node has received both an indication for host traffic and for realm traffic reduction, only the realm reduction will apply for messages with only the Destination-Realm AVP and only the host reduction will apply for messages with the Destination-Host AVP (and the Destination-Realm AVP).
[JJ] OK, Host reduction prevails

In other words, as said earlier, the Host reduction prevails over realm reduction when the overloaded host is inside an overloaded realm and the reacting has received info about both type of overload.

Dear  all

I share Ulrich and MCruz views,
- Host OLR based control applies to requests where Destination Host is known
- Realm OLR based control applies to requests where Destination Host is not known (only the Destination realm).

I think it is simple, otherwise as MCruz indicated it complicates; e.g about the Ulrich's example where the Host S1 is not overloaded but the realm is overloaded. the client will not receive Host OLR reports from host S1 (so no explicit traffic reduction requested by S1), but according to Lionel comment, I understand  client will have to throttle the requests sent to S1 according to realm OLR, so how to avoid this.

Dear all,

I am in favor of the proposal made by Ulrich in the sequence diagram he provided.
----
As a summary:
Consequently the reacting node will receive realm type OLRs from the agent and host type OLRs from the servers.
The received realm type OLR will be relevant for the reacting node when sending/throttling realm type requests; the received host type OLR will be relevant for the reacting node       when sending/throttling host type requests.
-----

It may occur though, that a Client has only received Realm type OLR, and then it has to send a request to one specific host, then the Client will not apply any restriction, but as soon as the response is received back, Client will update Host type OLR.  Same will apply when only Host type OLR has been received by Client.
The alternative will be to always send back from an Agent both Host OLR plus Realm OLR, but I do not think this is necessary and may complicate the solution.

Best regards
/MCruz

Isn't this what Lionel said below?
<Ulrich> no it is not</Ulrich>
 I am OK with Lionel's
"wording" here.

If a message targetted for the host is throttled as a result of realm overload then that throttled message would count as part of the reduction needed to address the host overload.  Messages to the host that survive realm abatement would then be candidates for host overload.

And the reduction indicated in the OLR will apply always for the realm, whatever the presence of Destination-host AVP in the request... except if an explicit report with the type "Host" as been received for this destination-host.
