QA » openQA Project » openQA Infrastructure

Motivation¶

The machine "power8" is currently not available for o3 meaning there is currently no ppc testing in o3 at all. Use the existing machine qa-power8 for o3 ppc testing

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC0: We know what kind of setup we need (baremetal vs. HMC managed, e.g. ask test maintainers)
• AC1: We can manage VMs on qa-power8 usable for openQA (either baremetal or HMC based)

Suggestions¶

• Wait for #125216
• Do the other three suggestions

Out of scope¶

• Install openQA-worker on the machine
• Create SUSE-IT EngInfra ticket to move the machine's ethernet interface based on racktables information to the o3 network (VLAN 662)
• Add according networking information on o3 into /etc/dnsmasq.d/openqa.conf
• Configure the machine OS for dhcp client mode and ensure the machine gets an address from o3 dnsmasq
• Ensure the system is able to execute openQA tests from o3
