Description

For details see https://fate.suse.com/317970

Feature status is "done".

With SLES10/SLES11, we did create an autoyast profile at the end of the installation. With both products doing a full system configuration during installation, this did made sense.

With SLES12, most things are no longer configureable during installation and we suggest to the customer to configure it later in the running system. So a lot of config entries are missing from this autoyast profile. And the resulting autoyast profile is different then if you create it later in the running system.

Thus we should stop creating the autoyast profile during installation and only concentrate on doing it later in the running system.

despite of what mkravec achieved. Why do we automate such test cases? Removing a feature should have a one-shot test. Why do we fear that the feature will reappear?

From rbrown explanation: there was regression several times (thanks okurz, I also thought this is useless test)

PR got merged.

Verified working in sle-12-SP2-Server-DVD-x86_64-Build1991-gnome@64bit: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/478020#step/installation_overview/5

It does not seem to work well in migration scenarios: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/478054#step/installation_overview/11 as well as https://openqa.suse.de/tests/477961 https://openqa.suse.de/tests/478055 https://openqa.suse.de/tests/478056 https://openqa.suse.de/tests/478057 https://openqa.suse.de/tests/478061
I labeled the fails accordingly, please take a look.

I found better way to test this, there is "export configuration" button if feature is enabled, will change needles today
