Hi CI tenants !
Just a reminder that (as you know it) CentOS Stream 8 will go EOL in May and then CentOS Linux 7 itself going EOL in June (so very soon)
That would mean that we'll just remove the various pools that provide CentOS 8s and 7 for your tests.
Reason is that mirror network itself will be unavailable and so all tests would fail anyway.
Happy to discuss here but we'll send reminders about when we'll just remove the various pools in Duffy.
I also need to find an option for something else that you *still* all use when using Jenkins on openshift cluster : our cico-workspace image (https://quay.io/repository/centosci/cico-workspace) That one is "problematic" as it's based on upstream openshift jenkins agent (https://github.com/openshift/jenkins/tree/master?tab=readme-ov-file#hosted-i...)
These ones are based on UBI8 and it seems that there is (still) no momentum to move to UBI9 (don't have direct contact with them though) While our current images were based from the upstream ones, we could just "convert" these to 8s (https://github.com/centosci/images/blob/master/cico-workspace/Dockerfile#L1 and https://github.com/centosci/images/blob/master/cico-workspace/Dockerfile#L8)
We need to find a solution but was wondering if just using vault (archived mirror content) would be a good solution or not : tempted myself to answer "no" as that would mean running container that will *never* be updated for security reasons (CentOS Stream 8 going EOL in May)
Opinions, thoughts ?
