action #123797

Updated by okurz about 1 year ago

## Observation 
 Dimstar reached out to me noticing that https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/latest?arch=x86_64&distri=opensuse&flavor=Gnome-Live&machine=64bit-4G&test=gnome-live&version=43.2 is recurringly retriggered. 

 ## Impact 
 openqa.opensuse.org is wasting ressources although likely this will not have a worse effect than that. 

 ## Problem 
 This happens because http://jenkins.qa.suse.de/job/gnome_next-openqa always detects a change in content in the URL "http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/Medias/images/iso/?P=GNOME_Next*", see http://jenkins.qa.suse.de/job/gnome_next-openqa/urltriggerPollLog/. Likely we also can not use the "last-modified" date as `curl --head "http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/Medias/images/iso/"` shows that MirrorBrain does not seem to deliver that. 

 ## Suggestions 
 * *DONE* As workaround throttle the builds in jenkins -> #123797#note-1 
 * Try out different options for the URL change monitor 
 * Discuss with MirrorBrain owners about possible solutions 
 * Consider migrating the pipeline to another solution. E.g. http://jenkins.qa.suse.de/job/krypton-openqa/ was replaced by openqa-trigger-from-obs+botmaster.suse.de with https://github.com/os-autoinst/openqa-trigger-from-obs/pull/151 and https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-release-tools/pull/2684
