Hi Guys,
=20
as previously offered:
=20
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.
=20
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.
=20

Joachim Jabs / Gestahlt

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?

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.
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.

agreed, especially if it's thin provisioned.
amount of disk space will be determine if we'll want to run multiple jobs on each
slave so it will require cloning the workspaces,
but of course slaves usually require much less space than the master node.

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.

Let's keep iterating on the content on http://ovirt.org/wiki/Jenkins,
not just the service minimums, but cleaning the setup steps, etc.

Yes. I see getting easy access to the auto-builds in
repo's as a top
priority. Followed by getting the changes needed to build EL6 into
Jenkins and get those auto-builds. I also would like to get auto-builds
setup for the 3.1 engine so any cheery picked updates will get built and
made available for people without require infra admin time. Create the
same thing for VDSM if / when a branch gets created.
We have 2 issues that need resolved to get auto builds into repo's
1) We need additional storage on linode01 or we need to move the repo's
to there own system.
2) We need someone with access to both system to get the scripts to move
the data around. I am sure I could get it done but I would need my
access raised on linode01 and access to the Jenkins Master but this
should be pretty easy once the storage issues is resolved.
EL6 builds the steps that we need.
1) We need to incorporate the EL6 patches so we can build the package.
Do we do it using a EL6 specific .spec files or do we use if statements
inside the exist spec?
2) We need to get builds running on some EL6 based hosts. I have a few
small hosts I could kick in but both nodes are just 8 cores / 8G of ram
each.
3) Move the nightly over to the repo for EL6 builds.
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.
Before we worry about
getting them in a PPA we need to worry about
building the packages. This requires more then Just building oVirt
packages we need to build jboss 7.11 packages and depending on the
Debian version we might requires an newer version of PostgreSQL. There
is a lot of packaging that needs to be done to get oVirt running on
Debian based systems.
Right now the packing needs is so great
it is hard to get anyone
interested into build oVirt into there distro but once you have some
working Debian based packages then other Debian maintainers will pick
them up and incorporate them into there respective Distro's

We can safely add about 15 GB to that account. I need to find another
window of time for that resize and reboot. I'll set it up for tomorrow
(Friday) afternoon (Pacific time), which should be quiet everywhere else.
Sorry I didn't make it clear, I gave you full sudo access the other
day! Please give it a try to make sure it's working.
Right, right, I was forgetting that the darn horse needs to exist
before we can attach this cart to it. :)

Actually a jenkins slave only needs a jenkins user with SSH keys
installed. You also need some packages, depending on the unit tests that
need to be run. java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel for the java ones. VDSM also
needs sudo. You should remove a line with requiretty in it and add the
following:
jenkins = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/yum, /usr/sbin/setenforce /usr/bin/ksflatten,
/usr/bin/livecd-creator, /usr/bin/mount
Need to catch my train now, hopefully there I can finish up some
documentation and some puppet magic that sets it up for you.
