Hi Guys,
as previously offered:
Im willing to provide you guys infrastructure for Jenkins. Im currently trying out getting oVirt running on a cluster (we have 192 Cores and 3TB RAM aviable) for providing help with problems around ovirt that might arise.
The Cluster is not commercially used (Not right now) and for me its also a good opportunity to learn about ovirt and also about hosting VM related infrastructure. This will also be a test for stability and maintainability around the hardware used.
If you guys sum up what you need, I think I might be able to do something for you there. If you have any questions regarding the offer, just ask.
Hey, thanks for following. This is a great offer, +1 from me.
Ewoud, Eyal (& others?) - what does Joachim need to do? Is this a good place to start? --
This is an excellent offer and opportunity. Since we're talking about VMs, we can start with basic hardware spec and increase it after we'll see the bottle necks in real time.
I would start with 3 VMs each running 16GB RAM, 200GB DISK, 32 GB SWAP, each with 4/8 cores each.
Itamar, mburns -> any recommendation on how many VMs per hardware node should we use?
considering the workload, i'd start with not overcomitting resources, and later analyzing behavior
Agree with Itamar. I'd also consider having a vm or 2 that are running various target distros where we can build packages for different distros.
+1 Robert - are you interested in working on the package autobuild for RHEL & rebuilds? I figure we have the Fedora expertise already. Anyone know enough to get the Debian/Ubuntu packages building? (Maybe even automate populating an Ubuntu PPA?) Same questions for OpenSUSE. We have a classic chicken-and-egg problem with being of interest to the OpenSUSE. Debian, Ubuntu, etc. communities - we need builds to generate the interest of people who would want to maintain the packages in their downstream distro repo.
Also, 200GB disk seems a bit excessive to me. Since this is running on oVirt, maybe a thin provisioned disk would be a good choice. The slaves generally don't need as much disk.
Let's keep iterating on the content on http://ovirt.org/wiki/Jenkins, not just the service minimums, but cleaning the setup steps, etc. - - Karsten - -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFP/vYN2ZIOBq0ODEERAlwxAJ9DQ63HE7tOvVbDZdOM/b3HJ44a6QCdFsbQ IK74b3u5rsJkxK4kuJKm9zQ= =I0Jm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
