Description

Observation

We don't own SMT, and it requires maintenance. As there is a requirement for SMT test for QSF, we should address it in a way that we have control over the test.
We could use MM test, for example.

openQA test in scenario sle-15-SP1-Installer-DVD-x86_64-gnome_install_smt@64bit fails in
scc_registration

Acceptance criteria

  1. Installation tests using smt/rmt work reliably
  2. No external dependencies are used

Reproducible

Fails since (at least) Build 20.3

Further details

Always latest result in this scenario: latest

The migration team performs quite some migration tests on SMT and also on RMT and they have both installed. So they should know more about that.

Discussed with sunyan, riafarov and mawerner:

  • In general SMT should be considered stable and not an object for testing anymore
  • QA SLE migration takes the responsibility to cover RMT testing in general
  • Any SMT/RMT tests withing the domain of QSF-y should focus on connecting+registering the current SLE versions under test against a stable SMT or RMT instance, not relying on correct repo content, e.g. no development builds are synced to any SMT/RMT server, just stable released products

TODO

  • Special domains, e.g. the yast module to configure RMT as mentioned in #25800#note-9 should be covered by QSF-y -> #25800
  • Open point: Who covers SUSEConnect+RMT
  • Open point: Which SMT/RMT instances are there within the domain of QA SLE
  • Open point: Who ensures the administration of which instances

Answer from Weihua:

Currently we are maintaining following SMT and RMT server:

SMT server:
* smt.suse.asia    10.67.1.56
* migration-smt.qa.suse.de    10.162.0.27

RMT server:
* openqa-rmt.suse.de    10.160.2.15

I believe we can resolve this one. So we agreed on following:
registration against smt and rmt is covered by migration team.
QSF-Y covers YaST modules for smt and rmt configuration.

In such setup we don't have blocking or overlapping parts. Thanks all!
