closedcoordination #80142: [saga][epic] Scale out: Redundant/load-balancing deployments of openQA, easy containers, containers on kubernetes
[epic] Scale out: Disaster recovery deployments of existing openQA infrastructures
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
