action #160436
Updated by livdywan 8 months ago
## Motivation
There are two s390x LPARs, s390zl19+s390zl1a, that were originally prepared to run as openQA qemu workers for #159063 but so far os-autoinst-distri-opensuse based tests do not run on such environment which is why s390zl19+s390zl1a are currently unused. We should ensure that both LPARs are put to good use, e.g. just run the same setup as on s390zl12+13 though with more limited ressources.
## Acceptance criteria
* **AC1:** Both s390zl19+s390zl1a are used in production
## Suggestions
* Ensure both s390zl19+s390zl1a are used in production just like s390zl12+13
* Just login over ssh
* Look into #159063-3 regarding the storage and maybe mount points
* Then maybe simply follow https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa instructions using the same approach as for s390zl12+13
* Also set the newly introduced grain "roles: external_openqa_hypervisor", see https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/-/blob/master/top.sls?ref_type=heads#L59
* If both instances are not really usable then free the resources again coordinating with mgriessmeier
