Status update
We have completed a CI change so that the REC/TA ISO build will be triggered by code merge instead of daily
We are discussing whether to write a CD testrunner from scratch or use one that Nokia is planning to Open Source
Cabling in the CD lab is complete (rework of previous non-working cables is done)
Questions
What platforms are in use?
AT&T CD platform is doing automated deployment only to Nokia OpenEdge cluster at this time.
As of https://gerrit.akraino.org/r/#/c/ci-management/+/1192/ the build of a new ISO (via https://jenkins.akraino.org/view/ta/job/ta-ci-build/configure ) should happen automatically any time code is merged in any of the TA repos that build component parts of the ISO. An hourly job at AT&T checks for new ISO images to appear and whenever it finds a new one it automatically deploys it to an OpenEdge cluster and pushes the logs to https://nexus.akraino.org/content/repositories/logs/att/job/Install_REC_on_OpenEdge1/
REC deployer (the part inside of the ISO image) supports Dell and HP but Remote Installer (the Docker image that the Regional Controller instantiates) does not yet, so Dell and HP installs are "1-touch" rather than "0-touch". There are multiple HP and Dell clusters with REC installed on them but they were not installed automatically by the CD system due to the current limitation of Remote Installer support.
