action #117238
closedcoordination #115322: [Epic] Update test coverage based on PRD for migration paths in SLE 15 SP5
HA SLE-15-SP4 Standalone online migration + AutoYaST installation
Description
Motivation¶
After discussion with SAP and HA squad about the migration update here are the results:
https://confluence.suse.com/display/qasle/2022-09-12+SAP+and+HA+migration+update
General idea is that QE YaST will own equivalent standalone migrations to the ones that exists for non-standalone (with modification via clusters), consisting on:
- AutoYaST installation (selecting the extension and corresponding role and publishing image)
- Migration (without any more validation)
and SAP/HA squad will connect the standalone system migrated above to its existing procedure:
- Boot image that has already modified by cluster
- Migration
- Validation with clusters
In that regard each team will review its own group, and migration with cluster will not start until standalone migration has succeed, making the team independent, but collaborating in case of any potential issue. In theory failures not seen in the standalone migration will be probably caused by cluster modification, so QE SAP/HA will open bugs for that and they will have to figure out what is different.
Additional mapping of standalone migration test suite names and cluster migration test suites should be provided by our side to make the connection.
Scope¶
This is is the full list to tackle in the future (notice that we don't have to do it for both nodes, only one, so it is the half of it).
But in this ticket will will tackle this procedure only covering what the following existing test suite are covering:
- migration_online_sle15sp4_ha_alpha_node01_atmg
Acceptance criteria¶
AC1: Use an AutoYaST profile for HA textmode image creation in "YaST Maintenance Updates - Development" job group
AC2: Ensure different image name than existing when publishing AutoYaST image
AC3: Ensure names of image creation test suite and migration start by ha_`
AC4: Enable migration listed in the scope (above) for this ticket in 'Migration' job group
Additional information¶
Reuse existing AutoYaST profiles created from previous HA tickets for similar purpose.
Notice that it is not needed to establish a chained dependency with AutoYaST, just booting the image, due to in the future they will be in different job groups and we don't want to spend the whole time and a new installation before running migration, our goal is only to reduce the time for patching the system.
Check similar task in #116509
Notice that we don't replace yet the test suites in job group 'Migration: HA', once the standalone migration is done, we will delete this job group.

Checking this ticket, the AC1 & AC2 in this ticket have been covered by [ticket's] AC1 & AC2. For the same migration path (from 15SP4 to 15SP5), the offline migration method cases and online migration method cases use the same image.

Hi Wangjun, for this 15sp4 ha online case, no need to create autoyast installation any longer, I have done it, see cases:
https://openqa.suse.de/tests/overview?distri=sle&version=15-SP4&build=25.1&groupid=251
And you need to add one online case for each arch (x86_64,s390x,aarch64):
ha_migration_online_pscc_sles15sp4
For ppc64le, need to use PowerVM, so need to add two cases for this ticket:
ha_migration_online_pscc_sle15sp4_pre, ha_migration_online_pscc_sle15sp4
You can reference the power cases here:
https://openqa.suse.de/tests/overview?distri=sle&version=15-SP5&build=25.1&groupid=251
And you can add your cases to this group, when they are ready, need to submit MR and add the case to Migration group.
If any questions, feel free to contact me.

Thank you very much, I will have a try.

I have created a preview version of "ha_migration_online_pscc_sles15sp4" case here:
- group 251: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/overview?distri=sle&version=15-SP5&build=25.1&groupid=251
- x86_64: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/9775703
- s390x: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/9775553
- aarch64: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/9775758
- ppc64le: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/9776028,https://openqa.suse.de/tests/9776029
could you help to review and give me some suggestions ?

Hi Wangjun,
Some suggestions for you:
- The cases of x86_64, s390x and aarch64 arches are good. Just one tip for you that the published qcow name is changed to 'autoyast-SLES-15-SP4-%ARCH%-HA-updated.qcow2', so if you need to rerun your jobs, I advise you to change the setting of HDD_1 to 'autoyast-SLES-15-SP4-%ARCH%-HA-updated.qcow2' in cases of you have to re-run the installation job in the before. If you don't need to re-run your jobs, change the HDD_1 setting when you submit MR would be fine.
- For the ppc64le case, you need to use autoyast installation for the "pre" case, please refer to the offline ppc64le cases here: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/overview?distri=sle&version=15-SP5&build=25.1&groupid=251

thank you, good suggestions, I will improve the cases.

after improving the cases, these cases passed:
- group 251: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/overview?distri=sle&version=15-SP5&build=25.1&groupid=251
- x86_64: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/9798566
- s390x: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/9798419
- aarch64: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/9798415
but the case for ppc64le doesn't pass and I am debugging it.
