A bare-metal node is the easiest for us. We might be able to run the tests on a VM, but that usually is way less stable and requires more tuning and correction of the CI jobs as updates cause (temporary) breakage. A VM needs to have sufficient CPU, RAM and storage to that we can create block-devices and run Ceph on top of that (in containers?). Thanks, Niels
