Gerrit, Jenkins solutions
--N+dhEFW7Y2Uiel/w Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sorry I haven't been talking much about this here, but there have been discussions going in the back-channel around what we need to do for putting up Gerrit and Jenkins. Why all the fast moves? I think the point is to be nimble, do what we know to do, and make things as breakable, fixable, and replaceable as we can. We're getting things going in record time, as we need to be that way for now.[0] We'll have some breathing time mid-November to rethink how we are approaching infrastructure. We have to recognize that many people come to this community, and we want an infrastructure that is welcoming to them. For example, I'm hoping more infrastructure and services will come from some of the strategic companies involved, just as I hope to see more from Red Hat IT. So the back-channel discussions we've had so far settle on us using a few VM images on EC2. Red Hat is providing these, we'll load them with RHEL 6 + EPEL, and we'll go in to trim and harden along the lines of the community services infrastructure[1] (CSI) I'd like us to work with. Volunteers? We'll need to work out the configuration details for Gerrit and Jenkins. They are both new to me, but I'm not afraid. :) So ... what should the architecture of these look like? I'm thinking we have two instances: * jenkins.ovirt.org - a low-running, very tight image that can scale to great heights when crunching tests. I'm not going to push an app server here - small is good, I presume, but I wouldn't mind learning an EE6 platform, such as JBoss AS 7. :) Still, that's our own overhead we manage ... * gerrit.ovirt.org git.ovirt.org - trimmed as a web server. It doesn't need a database, right? git.ovirt.org is just an alias. Does that cover it?

from our experience we will need multiple machines set up as jenkins slaves to run the expected workload. jenkins has a plugin to stop/start the instances in EC2 per required load (didn't test how good it is yet) https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Amazon+EC2+Plugin
* gerrit.ovirt.org git.ovirt.org - trimmed as a web server. It doesn't need a database, right? git.ovirt.org is just an alias.
we are using a lightly forked version today for improved emails to patch mailing list until our patches are accepted (hopefully) in gerrit upstream. the change allows patches in the mailing list to contain the patch comments inline like in regular patch reviews.
Does that cover it?

Hi Karsten, I'm maintaining the jenkins and gerrit instances for rhevm downstream. i would be happy to pitch in and help raise the infrastructure for jenkins/gerrit in ovirt. let's start with getting 2 EC2 vms to run gerrit and jenkins on. we can also look at existing open source jenkins instances that other companies use [0] also an interesting presentation about advantages of using jenkins for an opensource project [1] [0] https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=58001258 [1] http://www.slideshare.net/ndeloof/opening-opensource-the-jenkins-way Eyal Edri RHEVM Integration team Red Hat ----- Original Message -----

i'm looking into best practises of installing jenkins on a public server for an opensource project. once i'll have something, we can put it in the site wiki.
