## 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 * *DONE* 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). * *DONE* Reduce number of x86_64 qemu slots if we have "too many" * Monitor for the impact on qemu_ppc64le job age * Increase the amount of ppc64le machines and then again re-enable x86_64 machines ## 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 ## Out of scope * Any code changes for the scheduler
