action #157147

Updated by okurz 28 days ago

## Motivation 
 Based on request by fniederwanger in Slack. 
 With https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-pillars-openqa/-/merge_requests/705 we have introduced 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 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 
 Incorporate ideas from #157144-2 
 * 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/-/blob/master/README.md 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
