How to install & configure Docker with a corresponding runtime

To run Windows container, we can choose from:

1. Containerd Runtime
2. DockerCE
3. MirantisContainer Runtime

How to build the container image

cd 'C:\Users\<USERNAME>\Desktop`
git clone https://github.com/krishvoor/uperf-windows/
cd uperf-windows
git submodule --init --recursive update
cd .\uperf-windows
docker build -t windows:uperf-simply .

Run uperf in server mode

PS C:\Users\vkommadi\Desktop> docker run -d -p 30000:30000 quay.io/krvoora_ocm/windows:uperf-simply uperf -s -v -P 30000

Run uperf in slave mode

Update the test.xml profile required to understand

$ cat > test.xml << EOF
<?xml version=1.0?>
<profile name="stream-tcp-64-64-1">
          <group nthreads="1">
      <transaction iterations="1">
        <flowop type="connect" options="remotehost=<UPDATE_ME_CONTAINER_IP> protocol=tcp port=30001"/>
      </transaction>
      <transaction duration="60">
        <flowop type=write options="count=16 size=64"/>
      </transaction>
      <transaction iterations="1">
        <flowop type=disconnect />
      </transaction>
  </group>
        </profile>

Run the uperf in slave mode

PS C:\Users\vkommadi\Desktop>docker run -v "c:\Users\vkommadi\Desktop\uperf":"c:\uperf" quay.io/krvoora_ocm/windows:uperf-simply python c:\uperf\uperf.exe

This should run for a while, and spew information on screen, here's the output
