Motivation¶

During work on #170077 okurz found work on storage for qamaster to be error-prone due to the hardware RAID with many and old storage devices and unusual configuration with RAID6 for root device etc. Before we do more risky stuff we should ensure we have a current backup of VMs and services and for that we need to find out what's the best approach to store backups.

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: We know where to store backups which are not on qamaster.qe.nue2.suse.org

Suggestions¶

• Determine required size from #173347
• Consider OpenPlatform or the host "storage" in PRG2 or currently unused QE machines
• Consider extending https://gitlab.suse.de/suse/wiki/-/blob/main/qe_infrastructure.md or a reasonable other place
• Provide a hint in #173347 how to follow up
