Another "parallel" feature would be the ability to pin a job to a slave (not sure if this is achievable currently), so you could run a job, login to the slave, fix something, re-run, repeat.
Mmm, well, if you can configure the job you can pin it to a slave, just click 'restrict where this job can be run' and write there the name of the slave. Is that what you want?
That should only be done on jobs that are in development, as it will greatly affect other runs.
+1 in general for allowing power users ssh access to slaves (no sudo access at first). but i would like to ask the relevant vdsm funtional tests which info are they seeking in the slave, and if those logs can be collected and archived via the job (like other jobs are doing already).
can the vdsm fuctional test owner can provide more info?
not sure if we can find out all pieces. Would sudo to less on everything in /var/log/ really hurt? maybe something like logcollector…but they tend to be huge +1 Plus download time after each run will become unreasonable.
the logcollector would not be huge if it's taken after each job, and collected on job failures. Having vdsm.log on supervdsm.log ready for failed jobs is highly useful.
In any case, please grant me and Toni power user ssh access (please take the public keys from gerrit).
dan, please send official request to infra list (each one in separate email) specifying which jobs you need to debug and what sudo access you need. attached you public key to the mail as well. once approved on the list, it will be added to the relevant puppet class. as for attaching logs - feel free to add this functionality to the vdsm functional job, if you need assistance, you can contact infra, but mainly these jobs are owned by vdsm power users. eyal.
