Is it possible to get raw block device storage on nodes in the CI? Right now from what I can tell the nodes come up with LVM set up and no space free in the volume group. There is a root/home/swap LV and we can't really reclaim any space because xfs doesn't support shrinking the FS.
Can we have some free space left in the VG? Is there some other way to get this to happen?
If performance does not impact you tests, you can setup VGs on PVs created from loopback devices (on empty files).
The other option is to setup an iscsi like store, and just export a block device to the worker node, and set that up on the client side as needed. Again, it wont be the fastest device in the world, since it will have a 1gbps network cap ( the way things are setup now ).
