action #139103
Updated by okurz about 1 year ago
## Motivation
Currently on OSD there is a longer job queue in particular for ppc64le for multiple reasons, see #139010. One idea to decrease number of x86_64 worker slots on osd to give ppc64le jobs a better chance to be assigned jobs due to the OSD openQA instance job limit.
## Acceptance criteria
* **AC1:** The impact of worker instance ratio by arch/class has been verified
* **AC2:** Given the openQA instance job limit is impacting the ppc64le job queue When the ratio of ppc64le/all workers has been increased Then the ppc64le job age is lower
## Suggestions
* Look up current number of x86_64 and qemu ppc64le jobs assuming that we have a very low ppc64le/all ratio, e.g. many workers for qemu_x86_64 and very few for qemu_ppc64le (16 as of 2023-11-04).
* Reduce number of x86_64 qemu slots if we have "too many"
* Monitor for the impact on qemu_ppc64le job age
## Rollback steps
* Re-enable openQA OSD workers w35-w36, remove according alert https://monitor.qa.suse.de/alerting/silence/e2c36842-e6a9-4d48-aeef-330c3d8604c7/edit?alertmanager=grafana
