Description

Motivation

We investigated the general feasibility of running an OSD clone in cloud in #88341 . SUSE plans to improve our disaster recovery capabilities. To follow-up the initial work we should demonstrate in a real-world setup how an openQA instance can be created that is able to work in common SUSE workflows, e.g. SUSE SLE maintenance update testing

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: An openQA infrastructure exists providing near-complete replication of any existing instance
  • AC2: The infrastructure is able to execute scheduled openQA tests (with reduced performance)
  • AC3: Emergency recovery guidelines exist how to recreate the setup

Suggestions

  • Setup cloud instance of openQA, at best using https://github.com/os-autoinst/salt-states-openqa
  • Load latest database dump of an existing instance
  • Connect the instance to other infrastructure components, e.g. download.opensuse.org, similar as currently o3 does

Out of scope

  • Recreating all former test results (subset ok)
  • "Exotic" worker infrastructure, e.g. no powerVM, s390x z/VM, hyperv, vmware is needed

with multiple subtasks created in the weekly estimation meeting I can track the epic as blocked by the specific subtasks

Actions #2

Updated by okurz about 2 years ago

The result from #98469 is documented in https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqav3/wiki/Wiki#Fallback-deployment-on-AWS . Every member of the team should have AWS credentials that we can use to create and configure instances. We have tried it out mostly together so I am confident that we can continue with the other stories in this epic.

All subtasks resolved and very strictly speaking ACs are fulfilled also based on docs in https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqav3/wiki/#Fallback-deployment-on-AWS , rest, e.g. terraform, moved to new future epic
