Minutes

  • RI2 Current Status

    • Need for actual implementation of RA2. Solved by creating the Kuberef project

    • (Cedric) How to improve and get better test results

      • Biggest issue right now is rate-limiting of Docker Hub

      • Either use credentials or deploy local repo with images

      • Bring to TSC and LFN IT

    • (Pankaj) How well are we aligned with RA2 (Kali)

      • RI2 lagging behind RA2, which is expected

      • Currently updating traces directly in RA2 master, which might need to change

      • Need to document gaps in RI2, e.g. need for additional HW

      • Use the release/versioning of RA2 as a reference

    • For Kubespray, there is ongoing work looking into operating systems and deploying in VMs

      • Some work has already been done with VMs, but it still needs to be integrated with existing Kuberef code and scripts

    • (Cedric) Align K8s version with Cedric/RC2 to have backported tests available

    • Current adhoc GitLab Kuberef CI 

      • (Cedric) easy to setup once we pass all testcases
