okurz and mgriessmeier have a boot_s390.pm which is prerequisite but challenges left:

• for zkvm we can rely on images (depends on #12330)
• for zvm: how to ensure that an existing installation is there? probably depends on #12922

PR ready for "boot into existing system": https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/1598

as described in #12330 for zVM we just assume subsequent jobs to run on the same machine immediately as long as the worker class restricts the scenarios to run only on one so we are able to trigger tests on existing installations but only in serial execution. For zKVM we now have proper image handling so that spawning jobs based on images of existing installations should be feasible.

#13216 is a followup with a specific example, i.e. trigger extra tests on s390x.

@mgriessmeier: DONE?

working on it for zKVM at the moment
for zVM I plan to set up a new Worker_Class to also run console and extratests on it

I would say we have it already for zVM, too. The upgrade tests are using "an existing installation". But we can not close this ticket before the subtickets are done anyway

turns out to be a pre-requisite for more scenarios than we envisioned, referenced with blocked/blocking.

@okurz: Start date: 25/11/2015

:)

also the description is vague. Could we update the description please, so me, as the Product Owner, could figure what is to be done here?
