[sle][functional][y] Network Installations - remote installation over https with self-signed certificate
Added by okurz over 6 years ago.
Updated almost 6 years ago.
Target version:
SUSE QA - Milestone 19
Description
Acceptance criteria¶
- AC1: At least one scenario for each relevant SLE+openSUSE product conducting an installation using a https-repo with self-signed certificate
Suggestions¶
- https://openqa.suse.de has a SUSE-valid, self-signed certificate so maybe it is simply possible to use https in the MIRROR_HTTP variable however currently in lib/bootloader_setup.pm we do not type the https protocol nor does there seem to be a bootloader menu option for HTTPS explicitly
- Find out (documentation, IRC, bug) how one can use https … if at all
- Adapt test to explicitly use https as remote repo
- Copied from action #15148: [sle][functional][y] Network Installations - HTTPS added
- Target version changed from Milestone 18 to Milestone 18
- Description updated (diff)
- Due date set to 2018-08-28

What do you mean with "this didn't work"?
What did you expect?

What happened in the test that the prefix "https" was stripped when entering so I doubt that https is actually used
What did you expect?
I expected that either there is a menu option in the bootloader to select HTTPS explicitly or when we enter "https:/…" in the HTTP variable it would use https – but we did not enter https.

I tried in a VM using these boot options: ssl.certs=0 install=https://openqa.suse.de/assets/repo/SLE-12-SP4-Server-DVD-x86_64-Build0351-Media1
and it seems to work because setting up a non-existing build the installer complains about it.

So for SLES it's fairly easy, except that we cannot do zVM installations as url is too long. For openSUSE we have can use https, but we have root certificate installed, so it's not self-signed.

Added test suite for all product under development

I've cross checked the parent ticket, and it's totally different scope, as it's about booting over http and not remote installation with https repos. I resolve this ticket with part done for SLE.
@okurz, please create tickets accordingly. I believe installation over https is not a priority, but we need to test boot over http(s) which is supported for SLE 15 only as of now, and potentially in openSUSE.

As confirmed with PO, we have done what's feasible right now.
