Motivation¶

There is an ongoing discussion within SUSE how to properly connect our currently available ppc Power 10 resources and test within o3.
In a private Slack discussion we agreed on testing a Power 10 LPAR with the "normal" openQA qemu instances as worker.
Michal Suchanek provided us with a SLE15 SP7 test LPAR called "lingonberry-15". We should test if we can install openqa-worker instances on there and connect them to o3

Acceptance Criteria¶

• AC1: Tests can be scheduled on lingonberry
• AC2: lingonberry is mentioned in workerconf
• AC3: https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqav3/wiki/#SSH-configuration lists the machine, similar to kerosene

Suggestions¶

• Use our common resources to install required packages to make the LPAR act as worker
• Connect it to o3 and try if it can execute tests
• Lookup lingonberry-15 on Slack or ask Michael or Nick for more details
• c.f. kerosene for a similar setup which is also in SUSE network but connects to o3 over https

Out of scope¶

The machine should be ready to use as-is. Setting up LPAR is not needed. We also knowingly try to avoid a openSUSE/o3 operated HMC so the existing resources withing SUSE should suffice to conduct this experiment
