Description

Motivation

Apparently one openQA reserved server chassis was erroneously mounted elsewhere, https://racktables.suse.de/index.php?page=object&object_id=23373 . It should be moved to J11 and we should set it up for use similar as for other OSD workers in #132137 but probably use for virtualization-specific test including bare-metal tests, e.g. 2 nodes as bare-metal target machines, 1 node VMWare, 1 node HyperV.

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: All 4 nodes of the server chassis are usable within OSD as bare-metal test hosts
  • AC2: racktables is up-to-date with current use of the machine

Suggestions

(Anthony Stalker) Hi, we've identified the OpenQA chassis that was mounted to the BuildService rows by mistake. It is: https://racktables.suse.de/index.php?page=object&object_id=23373 . So this is an FYI for BuildService team that this server is moving soon. Also a question for QA team. This x86 chassis should go into J11 or J12?
(Oliver Kurz) oh, "free hardware"? :slightly_smiling_face: Please move it to J11

As the Virt squad is looking for new bare-metal testing hardware I mentioned the available hardware and that it could be used for that purpose. See https://suse.slack.com/archives/C02CGKV748P/p1716970043840679?thread_ts=1716792965.061679&cid=C02CGKV748P for context.
We should take https://racktables.suse.de/index.php?page=object&tab=default&object_id=1160 and https://racktables.suse.de/index.php?page=object&tab=default&object_id=10126 as reference and get IPMI and system ethernet connected with the help of IT accordingly for bare-metal testing.

I have a feeling this ticket is not going to be picked up within our SLO 🤔

Let's take a look at it tomorrow morning.

Hello @okurz Oli, is there any progress on this setup? I must kickoff my HW purchase process on earlier July, very appreciate if we can have the final verification of these 4 nodes for Virtualization team by end of June. Thank you!

Unfortunately not otherwise progress would be visible here. But I already made the team aware about the urgency.

Understood, bumped to "Urgent".

https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/5194 by cbachman to add all according network interfaces to VLAN 2114. This can serve as a good template for us in the future to propose changes for switch config.

@ybonatakis why did you add only worker41 and worker44 and not 42 and 43? Also you need the IPMI interfaces, e.g. "worker41-ipmi" and such

  1. https://gitlab.suse.de/OPS-Service/salt/-/merge_requests/5209 was merged. As you also changed IPv4 addresses for suttner1+2 which are the DHCP servers and have a static configuration: Did you coordinate the change with someone from IT? If not I suggest you propose that you do the change yourself ask IT for approval and them to stand by in case you loose SSH access.
  2. to ensure timely updates immediate/urgent tickets must never be in status "Blocked" or "Feedback", see https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/qa/wiki/Tools#SLAs-service-level-agreements
  3. Please prioritize verifying the functionality of the hardware to be able to meet the time expectations as layed out by @cachen in #134081-9
  4. Update racktables entries accordingly in https://racktables.nue.suse.com/index.php?page=object&object_id=23373 and the sub-elements

changes are in place and indeed suttner1+2 as well as the other new machines are not accessible.
I tried to reach out to IT guys https://suse.slack.com/archives/C029APBKLGK/p1719236874744979.
