Hi Folks,
We've been working over the last few weeks on our node provisioner, duffy, so that jobs in CICO can request nodes for architectures besides x86_64.
We have deployed that code into production and have some ppc64le VMs ready to take work. To see the flavors available including memory/vcpu/disk sizing, and to view sample duffy calls please visit:
https://wiki.centos.org/QaWiki/CI/Multiarch
Potential Questions:
What about aarch64?
Support for aarch64 is coming as soon as we finish installing the hardware for this (probably soon after the CentOS Linux 7.1708 release). We'll use the same pattern as ppc64le for the aarch64 VMs.
Can I request nodes using cicoclient?
There is a pull request pending, a release announcement will follow when this is merged. https://github.com/CentOS/python-cicoclient/pull/14
The relevant documentation for making calls using cioclient is on the wiki page.
Multiarch Next Steps:
We plan on using these machines to begin exploring multiarch additions to openshift and openstack in ci.centos.org
Happy Friday!
This is excellent news. Thanks to all who worked on this!
