closedQA - coordination #121720: [saga][epic] Migration to QE setup in PRG2+NUE3 while ensuring availability
QA - coordination #129280: [epic] Move from SUSE NUE1 (Maxtorhof) to new NBG Datacenters

Eng-Infra maintained DNS server for .qa.suse.de taking over from qanet size:M

Description
Motivation¶
We need to clear out Maxtorhof where qanet currently sits and is running bind to serve the qa.suse.de domain. We agreed that we want to keep the domain as "common name" for all qe provided services pointing to domains in different locations (e.g. s.qa.suse.de should be a CNAME for s.qe.nue2.suse.org).
In the best case eng-infra can provide us with a zone on their already existing infrastructure. Next best thing would be a VM provided by them. If all this is not possible we might need to spin up qanet2 and serve the domain from there.
Acceptance criteria¶
- AC1: We can maintain CNAME entries within the .qa.suse.de domain in https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/
Suggestions¶
- Follow-up with the discussion https://suse.slack.com/archives/C04MDKHQE20/p1691150107815519
- Ask Eng-Infra in Slack #dct-migration . If that yields no results then create SD ticket or push them in a corner and threaten them or whatever to provide this
- Extend our wiki with according instructions
- Take over all current entries from https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-sle/qanet-configs/ so that we are sure we can decommission qanet
- Push the Eng-Infra maintained DNS servers from DHCP+PXE on qanet

With mcaj+gsouza in https://meet.jit.si/suse_qa_tools now. mcaj+gsouza will ensure that they have a task to track in their backlog about this. mcaj proposed to manage the qa.suse.de domain in the same DNS server that manages oqa.prg2.suse.org and might also serve in the future QE machines in PRG2e. mcaj will create a merge request in https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/ preparing according changes based on https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-sle/qanet-configs/-/blob/master/var/lib/named/master/forward/qa.suse.de and we can then extend it to our needs. ETA mid of next week.

After discussion with mflores if we just wait for this then we should expect late 2023-11, likely later. So better we try to understand from https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/4098 and https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/4099 how to serve .qa.suse.de from dns1/2.nue2.suse.org and/ro dns1/2.prg2.suse.org

https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/4146 was replaced by https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/4247 which was merged. So this should be effective now. @dheidler are you waiting for something else, maybe you know more?

I wrote an announcement in https://suse.slack.com/archives/C02CANHLANP/p1698223169457739
@here we will now switch over the DNS for the domain qa.suse.de from the NUE based machine qanet.qa.suse.de to PRG2. Expect the DNS resolution to switch over unless you manually use qanet.qa.suse.de . Details in https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/134051

Nice!
Some open points:
- https://sd.suse.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/SD-129541 is still open, I assume we can suggest in there to close it with reference to https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/4247, right?
- We still have https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-sle/qanet-configs/ and possibly some references to that. Please take a look into confluence and wiki for references and update and mark the gitlab repo as outdated

Updated https://wiki.suse.net/index.php/SUSE-Quality_Assurance/Labs#Management_of_SRV2_network_config and https://confluence.suse.com/display/qasle/Retrospected+Instance
Repo is not yet deprecated as DHCP config still applies (also this is out of scope anyway).
