Hi,

We would like to announce that OKD v3.11 rpms are available for testing at [1].

As such we are calling for help from community to start testing and let us know if there are issues with the rpms and its dependencies.

And in the spirit of transparency see below the plan to promote the rpms to mirror.centos.org repo:

  1. in the next few days the packages should be promoted to the test repo [2] (currently it does not exist, we are waiting to be sync'ed in the background)
  2. in one/two weeks time if we haven't heard any issues/ blockers we are going to promote to [3] repo (currently it doesn't exist, it will once the rpm will be promoted and signed)

Please note the ansbile version use (and supported) must be 2.6.x and not 2.7, if you opt to ignore the warning you will run into issues.

On a different note the CentOS Infra team are working hard (thanks !) to package and release a centos-ansible rpm which we'll promote in our PaaS repos.

The rational is to bring more control around the ansible version used/ required by OpenShift-ansible installer and not rely on the latest ansbile version pushed to epel repo we caused friction recently (reflected on our CI as well as users reporting issues)


Thank you,
PaaS SiG team
