We would like to have raw block devices for Gluster testing too. Gluster can do snapshots based on lvm-thinp, and we recommend to use a dedicated Volume Group for each brick. Our tests can use files over /dev/loop* devices, but that is not how things should be used for real world setups.
The way to resolve that would be to request the instances from Duffy, and then reprovision as needed. that way you own the timelag and process to provision the box ( we can help, ofcourse ). Rather than needing a systemside / system-wide change in the base layer.
That's also a possibility, but not sure that all projects willing to have more disk space would like to reinstall each node given by Duffy either
- From the provider side - we need an interface to make it possible, and we already have all the mechanics for it. So should be fairly simple to expose to the jenkins slaves.
Yes, and it's also a CI/Test environment, so while it makes sense to try to be as close as possible as what would be done in ideal/real life scenario, it's not always possible.
no!
the main value prop from ci.centos.org is VERY much to focus on user space and real world testing, hence the baremetal and no pre-existing setups on the machines.
