Motivation¶

Use a post script to connect to the installed system with Agama for unattended installation with remote workers:

scripts: {
  post: [
    {
      name: 'enable-ssh,
      body: |||
        #!/usr/bin/bash
        systemctl enable sshd
      |||,
      chroot: true
    }
  ]
}

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: Agama can boot using powerVM in OSD and is reflected in job group.
• AC2: Be in sync with YaST developers in case will create tooling for this before we implement this workaround.
• AC3: Focus on s390x, but if powervm is enabled and it is possible to check we could evaluate.
• AC4: (Nice to have) Additionally we could fix that we don't get logs by handling errors when the screen is not visible.

Additional information¶

Besides to have ssh open in the installed system, for security sle 16 comes without root access allowed,
one way to hack this is doing: echo 'PermitRootLogin yes' > /mnt/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/root.conf
but probably is much more clean will be to uninstall openssh-server-config-rootlogin (but need to be tested)
When the screen is not visible in order to capture errors and finish the node process properly (meaning we will get logs properly)
we can use the approach we used in puppeteer: https://github.com/jknphy/e2e-agama-playwright/blob/main/pages/installation-finished-page.ts#L12-L22
