Greetings,

The TripleO CI team has just completed Sprint 33 / Unified Sprint 12 (Jun 27 thru Jul 17).  The following is a summary of completed work during this sprint cycle:

• Tested check jobs for periodic image/container builds on RHEL8 and resolved its dependencies on rhui repositories.

• Enabled tripleo-repos to support RHEL8.

• Addressed changes in kolla to support RHEL8.

• Created a nodepool image on RDO for RHEL8 w/ elements and dependencies installed.

• Improved container build script to consolidate kolla build logs and ease troubleshooting.

• Manually pushed rhel containers to RDO registry and identified gaps in authentication workflow for the container build jobs using buildah tooling.

• Modified scripts and post playbooks to upload RHEL8 overcloud images. 

• Created RHEL8 jobs to build a periodic pipeline in the RDO Software Factory and provide feedback for CentOS8 coverage.

• Resumed scenario007 and featureset039 job updates upstream.

• Promotion status: green on all branches at most of the sprint.

The planned work for the next sprint [1] are:

• Get RDO on RHEL8 build jobs working in periodic pipeline and bootstrap standalone and featureset001 jobs to consume RHEL8 images/containers. 

• Get featureset039 job to run novajoin tests and merge scenario007 job changes.

• Review templates for branched and non-branched projects to have more control on what jobs are being run and reduce queue lengths.

• Resume the design work for a staging environment to test changes in the promoter server for the multi-arch builds.

The Ruck and Rover for this sprint are Marios Andreou (marios) and Rafael Folco (rfolco). Please direct questions or queries to them regarding CI status or issues in #tripleo, ideally to whomever has the ‘|ruck’ suffix on their nick. Ruck/rover notes are being tracked in etherpad [2].

Thanks,

rfolco
