Blueprint changed by Andres Rodriguez: Whiteboard changed: UDS Session Notes: ARM Support Support for different ARM flavours is complex But a lot is shared with the desktop images, if not all Sub-architecture support should be out of the scope Minimum requirement is being able to netboot with pxelinux U-Boot emulation and full IPMI-based system management support. MAAS requires that ARM servers have a baseline of system management support IPMI necessary to ARM (no WoL) - but IPMI is planned for Q for all archs anyway. Dropping/replacing Cobbler dependency PowerManagement IPMI Fence agents NUT? Commissioning Environment Burn-in and hardware exploration tests: what tools? * bonnie * stress * iobench * checkbox does some of these already could utilize * checkbox should report back to MAAS, perhaps with an option to report to central checkbox server * autotest can run the tests remotely or locally, and also have a bunch of test cases already * facter (ruby) takes track of edge cases. * make sure that you collect enough data for use by juju * Investigate facter and alternatives Faster install: * Use a SquashFS image * Keep in mind the complexity of a server regarding multiple nics multiple block storage devices. Web app UI: - en masse actions - overview of the whole MAAS cluster - command line ui Start node without Juju: User Stories: + + Frank has been using MAAS in 12.04, however, he now needs the new + features in MAAS in 12.10, such as support of IPMI, ARM. By deploying + 12.10, frank will easily transition from the older MAAS release and + obtain the newer MAAS release with those new features. + Assumptions: + + - Newer MAAS should provide a suitable transition path. + - MAAS does not introduce any significant dependencies, but rather, they are being dropped. + - Reverse-Depends on older MAAS will be transitioned to newer maas. Test Plan: 1) Upgrades Installed Ubuntu 12.04 with MAAS; upgrade to Ubuntu 12.10; MAAS is replaced with its newer upstream release and the web application, configuration, and provisioning are transitioned to the new package locations. 2) Fresh install We will continue to be able to deploy a MAAS server from the CD, and provide automated ISO testing.
