action #157147
Updated by okurz 8 months ago
## Motivation
Based on request by fniederwanger in Slack.
With https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-pillars-openqa/-/merge_requests/705 we have introduced introduceds region+location+datacenter keys in the worker class settings. That is generally documented as example in http://open.qa/docs/#_assigning_jobs_to_workers but not directly describes the relevant settings easily accessible for OSD users. We should ensure that this concept is described with users of the OSD infrastructure in mind, e.g. in https://wiki.suse.net/index.php/OpenQA and/or https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/-/blob/master/README.md and/or https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-pillars-openqa/-/blob/master/README.md?ref_type=heads
## Acceptance criteria
* **AC1:** http://open.qa/docs/#_assigning_jobs_to_workers suggests the specific concept of "region-…,datacenter-…,location-…"
* **AC2:** A SUSE specific documentation explains the meaning of "region, datacenter, location" used within https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-pillars-openqa/-/blob/master/openqa/workerconf.sls
## Suggestions
* Simply change the lower text in http://open.qa/docs/#_assigning_jobs_to_workers with the specific concept of "region-…,datacenter-…,location-…"
* Add a SUSE specific documentation for the meaning of "region, datacenter, location" used within https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-pillars-openqa/-/blob/master/openqa/workerconf.sls, possibly in https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-pillars-openqa/ itself, maybe referencing that repo in detail on https://wiki.suse.net/index.php/OpenQA and/or https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/-/blob/master/README.md
