chaosd

Chaosd is free Apache-2.0 software for injecting and recovering faults on physical machines. It can create process, network, CPU or memory pressure, disk, and host faults. Use it as a command-line tool or run it as a background service controlled through HTTP requests. Chaosd is deployed separately from Chaos Mesh; PhysicalMachineChaos experiments require service mode on each targeted physical or virtual machine. The documented environment requires glibc 2.17 or later, and the binary download described is a Linux amd64 tarball. Network experiments using tc or iptables require sudo or root privileges. Deployment prerequisites include tc, ipset, and iptables; source builds additionally list stress-ng and byteman. Experiments can be searched and recovered by UID. TLS certificates are shown for service security, and running without generated certificates is not recommended.
