             Summary: Create an automated update mechanism for slaves
                 Key: OVIRT-1835
                 URL: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-1835
             Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: oVirt CI
            Reporter: Barak Korren
            Assignee: infra


While we already have an automated mechanism for controlling the YUM/DNF repo configuration on slaves, and we also already have a way to install or update components that are critical to the CI system (Both are provided by '{{global-setup.sh}}'), we're lacking a mechanism that can apply general system updates, and more importantly, kernel updates to slaves.

Some things we'd like such a mechanism to provide:
* Require a minimal amount of manual work (Best case scenario - nothing more then merging a repository update patch would be needed).
* Test updated slaves before putting them back to production use
* Allow rolling back failed updates
