I'd just like to chime in and say that the ability to provision VMs on OpenStack (instead of C6/7 physical hosts) would be a big help for me on migrating the Foreman tests to CentOS CI. We currently run VMs on Rackspace for CentOS, Debian, Fedora and Ubuntu so need a broad selection of images which Duffy + bare metal hosts doesn't provide.
I've been trying to spin up VMs on the physical hosts for each OS, but it's fiddly to set up compared to spinning up a pre-built VM image on OpenStack. (Little networking setup issues, virt-install workarounds, bugs in our tests that assume certain package lists, and the complexity of another provisioning layer.)
Looking forward to this, thanks for the update.
I have scripts which make it easy to spin up vagrant + oh-my-vagrant vms. Would this help?
