First, thanks to Fabian for the awesome and quick help.

What happened from my side so far:

- copied the keys and .ssh dir from /home/rhos-ci to the new slave in 
/home/rdo-ci (setting this slave up with that user to be less confusing)
- added the crontab entries from the old slave to start the java slave 
client automatically
- installed java jdk and did quickstart.sh --install-deps to add the 
necessary packages to the system
- reduced the executors on the slave from 13 to 8 to not overload the 
slave with the smaller VCPU/memory count

I started a periodic job on it and it seems to be running fine, so I 
added back all the regular labels to it and now it's running jobs.

David should probably install a couple of more stuff to make the weirdo 
jobs work as well.

The user ssh key stayed the same, but now it's for rdo-ci instead of 
rhos-ci, and the host is rdo-jenkins-2.ci.centos.org
