Description

Fully update for base system on existing image will cost so much time for openQA jobs, and this will turn more severely with time lapse.
We'd better to update the existing image, this action should be triggered by the maintainence patch released, then after the update the image with latest patch so patch_sle will save time to do full update later.

I have verified the process to update image.

  1. Create update test suite and trigger.
    example: 111_update_hdd_12sp4_gnome
    APPTESTS=update/patch_sle
    BOOT_HDD_IMAGE=1
    DESKTOP=gnome
    FULL_UPDATE=1
    HDDVERSION=12-SP4
    HDD_1=SLES-12-SP4-%ARCH%-GM-gnome.qcow2
    INSTALLONLY=1
    PUBLISH_HDD_1=SLES-12-SP4-%ARCH%-GM-gnome.qcow2
    QEMU_COMPRESS_QCOW2=1
    SCC_DEREGISTER=1

  2. Run the test suite to get the updated image, we need to change the image name on o.s.d. since openQA doesn't support to update image itself.
    https://openqa.suse.de/tests/2941698#

  3. Run test suite using the image to verify whether it works and new job shouldn't need to do full update.
