Motivation¶

In #168097 support for using local mirrors is implemented so that osado tests can also run from NUE2 without access to download.suse.de, e.g. as used for SLE maintenance tests . On the other hand SLE product validation tests using bare-metal use openQA provided assets, e.g. "http://openqa.suse.de/assets/repo/SLE-15-SP7-Online-aarch64-Build41.1-Media1/boot/aarch64/linux", which are not directly available anymore due to network access rules.

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: osado SLE product validation bare-metal tests can run from NUE2

Suggestions¶

• Follow what had been done in #168097
• See in particular #168097-29 showing a recent failed openQA job > This also concerns baremetal tests like this scenario running on squiddlydiddly. Here the problem is more tricky because the iPXE boot script is using assets provided by openQA:
