I think https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46472631/notify-all-group-members-of-failed-pipelines-in-gitlab describes the problem … and a good solution

we should just configure gitlab to send emails to osd-admins@suse.de for all projects if that is possible.

Transferred from https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/95105#note-5:

This is apparently a known problem, see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46472631/notify-all-group-members-of-failed-pipelines-in-gitlab

So I've been adding myself on https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/osd-deployment/-/services/pipelines_email/edit and monitor-o3. Let's see whether it works.

The previous comment is actually from me. So far I've only got a mail "Successful pipeline for master | osd-deployment | af090d3d" and that although I've checked "Notify only broken pipelines". So I am not sure yet whether it worked.

Yesterday I've received "Failed pipeline for master | osd-deployment | af090d3d" which says "Pipeline #168676 triggered by Oliver Kurz" so I guess it worked.

I added osd-admins@suse.de to https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/osd-deployment/-/services/pipelines_email/edit

This was suggested over a month ago, but nobody did it.

I also added Pipeline status emails to
https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/openqa-review/-/services/pipelines_email/edit

Also added to https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/-/services/pipelines_email/edit

Personal emails seem to work, but the list doesn't work because gitlab@suse.de is not allowed to write to the list.

Not sure who is the owner, so I wrote an email to osd-admins-owner@suse.de

As owner of osd-admins I now added gitlab@suse.de as valid sender. You confirmed to have received according emails already.

I received an email today (friday) at 05:58:57 Failed pipeline for master | osd-deployment | 4e4ecc88 to my personal address. But nothing arrived at the list so far.

See related #97406

From mailman:

The osd-admins@suse.de mailing list has 2 request(s) waiting for your
consideration at:

    http://mailman.suse.de/mailman/admindb/osd-admins

Please attend to this at your earliest convenience.  This notice of
pending requests, if any, will be sent out daily.

so we would need to learn if we can configure mailman to accept that. gitlab has it explicitly selected to use BCC (or CC) to send the emails to.

Following https://support.tigertech.net/mailman-implicit-destination I have on https://mailman.suse.de/mailman/admin/osd-admins/privacy/recipient changed "Must posts have list named in destination (to, cc) field (or be among the acceptable alias names, specified below)?" from "Yes" to "No"

If this does not work then what I also tried is to create a proper IDP account for "osd-admins@suse.de" following the create users page from https://bugzilla.suse.com with username "osd-admins", same password as the admin password for the mailing list, and then trying to login on https://gitlab.suse.de/users/sign_in . But this failed so far. Maybe takes some time to sync. If we can login maybe "osd-admins" can take over the pipeline. I also put the password into https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/scripts/-/commit/359f4a9a67634f70dcb35b5f429f8fe5c7fb0356

Currently osd-admins@suse.de is listed as a recipient in the Pipeline status emails of the following projects:

• https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/osd-deployment
• https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/openqa-review
• https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa
• https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/monitor-o3

I added this to the Wiki:
https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/qa/wiki/Wiki#section-22

I couldn't find any other projects with scheduled pipelines.
Let me know if there are projects which should be added.

Otherwise the ticket can be resolved I think.

As far as ACs this looks good because the wiki describes what to do. However there are some important projects that immediately come to mind:

• openqa/salt-pillars-openqa
• openqa/auto-review
• openqa/grafana-webhook-actions
• qa-maintenance/openQABot
• qa-maintenance/bot-ng

I might have mistyped from memory. These should be handled

Ok, I added the projects suggested by @okurz and updated the wiki
