Bug 673110

Please explain what you are trying to do here.  What do you mean by the following:

"Beaker is unable to schedule a job with more different distros."

And I really don't like the idea of submitting multiple jobs.  Remember you use up resources when you do that.

to run a testsuite on packages from some erratum

that it is impossible to schedule a job for RHEL4, RHEL5 & RHEL6 at once

at least I think so ... I wasn't able to do this via commandline, I'm really not sure if it is impossible by design - for that I refer to Peter Šplíchal in this irc snippet:

[14:07:46] <jscotka> psss: kvolny: I'm not also sure, if it is possible to schedule more than one distro in same job (for zsteram, security) bugs, isn't is?
[14:08:27] <psss> jscotka: yes, just one distro...

we need this anyways (to test the erratum on all distros it covers), it would in fact save our resources not having to submit multiple jobs by hand

I think I understand now.

A job can contain any number of recipeset/recipes.  There is nothing stopping you from submitting a job with multiple recipes that all have different distros.

the current bkr workflow-errata workflow does exactly what you are talking about.

unfortunately, workflow-errata lacks TCMS integration (getting list of tests from TCMS run rather than running all "relevant" beaker tasks)

I thought this one is solved already, but when trying to verify, I've got the error:

$ bkr workflow-tcms --run=32468 --errata=2011:1410
Using distro RHEL-3, RHEL-4, RHEL-5.3.LLZ, RHEL-5.6.Z, RHEL-5.7.Z, RHEL-6.0.Z and RHEL-6.1.Z from the Errata tool
Found 18 singlehost tasks (created 30 recipe sets)

- this may or may not have to do something with the ticket and bugs relevant to it: https://engineering.redhat.com/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=132232

Yes, the distro naming in Beaker has changed. I've updated the
workflow accordingly. Fix pushed to git.

after applying the patch, it works:

[kvolny@kvolny ~]$ bkr workflow-tcms --run=32468 --errata=2011:1410
Using distro RHEL-3, RHEL-4, RHEL-5.3.LLZ, RHEL-5.6.Z, RHEL-5.7.Z, RHEL-6.0.Z and RHEL-6.1.Z from the Errata tool
Found 18 singlehost tasks (created 30 recipe sets)
Successfully submitted as TJ#176340

and the job
https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/jobs/176340
has all the versions included

thanks!
