Based on the discussion with Russell and Dan Smith in the nova meeting today, here are some of my notes from the meeting that can continue the discussion. These are all pretty rough at the moment so please bear with me, this is more to just get the ball rolling on ideas.
Notes on powervm CI: 1. What OS to run on? Fedora 19, RHEL 6.4? - Either of those is probably fine, we use RHEL 6.4 right now internally. 2. Deployment - RDO? SmokeStack? Devstack? - SmokeStack is preferable since it packages rpms which is what we're using internally. 3. Backing database - mysql or DB2 10.5? - Prefer DB2 since that's what we want to support in Icehouse and it's what we use internally, but there are differences in how long it takes to create a database with DB2 versus MySQL so when you multiply that times 7 databases (keystone, cinder, glance, nova, heat, neutron, ceilometer) it's going to add up unless we can figure out a better way to do it (single database with multiple schemas?). Internally we use a pre-created image with the DB2 databases already created, we just run the migrate scripts against them so we don't have to wait for the create times every run - would that fly in community? 4. What is the max amount of time for us to report test results? Dan didn't seem to think 48 hours would fly. :) 5. What are the minimum tests that need to run (excluding APIs that the powervm driver doesn't currently support)? - smoke/gate/negative/whitebox/scenario/cli? Right now we have 1152 tempest tests running, those are only within api/scenario/cli and we don't run everything. 6. Network service? We're running with openvswitch 1.10 today so we probably want to continue with that if possible. 7. Cinder backend? We're running with the storwize driver but we do we do about the remote v7000? Again, just getting some thoughts out there to help us figure out our goals for this, especially around 4 and 5.
