i believe the current f18 slaves already have those, if not please open a ticket/email to infra. > > In all, to run VDSM functional tests, we need a VM that is ready to > build and install VDSM.

Could you install libvirt > slave plugin as well? we currently don't have ability to start/stop vms or launching any non-amazon vms as slaves. (we're working on adding new vms on ovirt-engine instance, which will give us more flexibility with that). is shutting down the vm part of the test? > > I think it will be helpful to run functional tests in VMs in Jenkins. > Could anyone give me some help to setup the environment? I really > appreciate. i think you can just use the 'fedora18' label for your new job and run it. if you'll have issue, communicate them here on infra list. > > -- > Thanks and best regards! > > Zhou Zheng Sheng / 周征晟 > E-mail: [email protected] > Telephone: 86-10-82454397 > > _______________________________________________ > Infra mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/infra > _______________________________________________ Infra mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/infra
