oVirt gerrit 50227 0 master MERGED Add host-node subpackage 2015-12-17 16:43:40 UTC

Description Fabian Deutsch 2015-11-24 17:06:47 UTC
Description of problem:
In the classic Node we kept many of the dependencies in the kickstart files.
This is not very scalable.
The better way is to express the dependencies of the image as dependencies of an rpm installed within the image.

The idea of this bug is to create an ovirt-releaseXY-host-node subpackage, which has the mandatory dependencies, and also includes some necessary files for integration (i.e. /etc/os.release.d/50-ovirt-node-host).

See [1] for the current dependencies

Comment 1 Fabian Deutsch 2015-11-24 17:10:27 UTC
The minimum dependencies are:

  40 dracut-config-generic
  41 
  42 # EFI support
  43 grub2-efi
  44 shim
  45 efibootmgr

  52 # For image based updates
  53 imgbased


Once this ovirt-releaseXY-host-node package exists, it should be the only package given in the packages section of the Node kickstart

Comment 2 Fabian Deutsch 2015-12-04 16:18:52 UTC
The /etc/os.release.d/ contents should be similar to 

echo "VARIANT=\"Cloud Edition\"" >> $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib/os.release.d/os-release-cloud
echo "VARIANT_ID=cloud" >> $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib/os.release.d/os-release-cloud
sed -i -e "s|(%{release_name})|(Cloud Edition)|g" $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib/os.release.d/os-release-cloud
