Description Vladimir Benes 2012-03-20 12:29:19 UTC

Description of problem:
I am in 3 groups, general, desktop and wireless but I am still receiving machines from wireless lab. Those machine are really network restricted so not good for my general tests. I need to execute tests in wireless lab from time to time too.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.8


Expected results:
I would like to set highest priority to desktop group (to use our machines), then general if our pool is fully occupied and then wireless.

Comment 1 Marian Csontos 2012-03-20 13:22:23 UTC

Specifying <group op="!=" value="GROUP_TO_EXCLUDE"/> works for me to avoid using machines with special-HW from one group to be used for tasks which:

- could run on anything and/or
- belong to other group

This often results in longer wait time for me, but is believed to increase the universe happiness sum.

Bulk reassignment of issues as Bill has moved to another team.

Comment 3 Nick Coghlan 2013-04-15 08:42:23 UTC

For Beaker 1.1, we should be implementing the concept of "System Pools", which will allow this behaviour to be controlled through a different mechanism.
