Hi Folks, Recently a bunch of autotest and beaker folks have been discussing how to get an autotest client working under beaker (namely Nick, Dan, Bill from beaker and Lucas, Cleber, Ademar from autotest).
A long time ago Jan Stancek whipped up some code to do that based on some discussions we both had. I later modified a bunch of his code and came up with these patches. I lasted touched these patches back in August 2012. I never finished polishing them off or completed my testing due to other Red Hat obligations. I am presenting these patches as a starting point for discussions as to how Jan and myself solved various problems. They are very much 'beta' patches (there has been a lot of testing so they were stable at one point). Unfortunately, I don't remember how all the pieces worked so instead of breaking the files into digestable chunks, I am just submitting whole files as new (well the first patch is a 'patch'). I rebased them on to the latest autotest/HEAD as of today. Though I didn't test them. Please be kind. I am cross-posting to various mailing lists to let anyone interested participate. The end goal is to have autotest client work with the beaker server smoothly. This would allow various autotest projects to leverage the provisioning/inventorying mechanisms provided by beaker for various labs. Feel free to direct all questions to me and I will do my best to remember what Jan and myself did.
