closedcoordination #169654: [epic] Create test scenarios for Agama
Create new test scenario to format directly home and configure boot partition in a different disk
0%
Description
Motivation¶
There is a couple of feature that can be covered in the same scenario.
- Disk directly formatted (also called "using the whole disk) or in other words, without involving partitioning. We already covered this when we directly used physical volume but the other possibility is to format directly home.
- Configure whether (and where, using an alias) Agama should calculate and create the extra partitions needed for booting.
We could combine both in single scenario with a profile which might look like this:
{
"storage": {
"drives": [
{
"search": "/dev/vda",
"filesystem": {
"path": "/home"
}
},
{
"search": "/dev/vdb",
"partitions": [
{
"filesystem": {
"path": "/"
}
}
]
},
{
"search": "/dev/vdc",
"alias": "boot-disk"
}
],
"boot": {
"configure": "true",
"device": "boot-disk"
}
}
}
I possible name could be this: sles_whole_disk_and_boot_unattended which is "almost" clear.
Acceptance criteria¶
- AC1: Create new test suite to format directly home and configure boot partition in a different disk.
- AC2: Validation should check that boot is really in a separate partition from root and that /home is not in any partition but in the disk itself.

Draft without verification runs or validation do not make much sense, please use reporting wisely once you have achieve something that goes beyond the ticket specification.
Reason: to avoid look at something or trigger a review and finding nothing to do, I hope it is understandable.

－ now the installation works but can't boot up, now trying to use bootindex=N for qume to see if it works.

Now use UEFI for boot from the boot disk and coding up for partition verificatin,I'd send out review again after run the VR. Thanks

Only missing point here is VR in prod/dev job groups.

Good, now you just need to the same in development. Please apply this for any ticket in the future, we always expect the jobs to pass in both groups unless some feature is not yet (ie in prod).
