Description

Motivation

Additional server being able to run openqa.suse.de jobs with WORKER_CLASS=svirt-hyperv same as https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-pillars-openqa/-/blob/e8ff917842a682198ecb99ccfc5dd5e3fdfeac7c/openqa/workerconf.sls#L259

Acceptance Criteria

  • AC1: There is a 2nd windows box to run Hyper-V based tests on
  • AC2: Ensure that we have proper documentation how to do this in the future

Suggestions

  • Pick one of the free blades of unreal.qe.nue2.suse.org, e.g. unreal8, see https://wiki.suse.net/index.php/SUSE-Quality_Assurance/Labs and https://racktables.nue.suse.com/index.php?page=object&tab=default&object_id=2240
  • If possible just let test owners install the instance and we support
  • Try to figure out how the existing tests work
  • Ask test maintainers
  • Try to use a free Windows evaluation copy.
  • Find out what that jump host does (do we need to have a separate machine here as well in regards to redundancy?) - according to hostnamectl it is some old 15.1 system running with "virtualisation: microsoft". //For jump host, it does vnc/rdp translation mainly.
  • Maybe jumphost is a linux vm on the libvirt host and is used to control the host using libvirt and some strange config to support controlling a microsoft server

Out of scope

  • Find out if and where to get a Windows license. IF that would be necessary we won't do it
