Hi Sandeep,

The execution files under folder "executions" are just reference, so what we need is that create your own execution file under dts folder.
You can find basic usage of DTS from http://www.dpdk.org/doc/dts/gsg/.

For configuration files, the usages of them are not included in getting started guide. I can just give a basic introduction here.

       1) ports.cfg
        When port detection mode is "cfg" in execution.cfg, DTS will generate network topo mapping table based on this configuration file.
        This configuration file just describe the connections between tester and DUT.

       2) execution.cfg
        Configuration file for suite executions, describe which suites will be run on which host.
        One thing need to take care is that value of "crbs" should match section name in ports.cfg and crbs.cfg.

       3) crbs.cfg
       Configuration file for DUT and Tester,  included of their ip addresses and login user name and password.

Thanks,
Marvin

Hi All,

The issue disappeared when I used the following command to execute.
    ./dts --config-file executions/execution.cfg

The default value of command line argument obtains non existing blank file, which led me to the above error.

Do I need trigger the suit on tester machine?,
please point me to the elaborated explanation of configuring:
       1) ports.cfg
       2) execution.cfg
       3) crbs.cfg.
