Description Ondrej Hudlicky 2009-05-19 14:43:16 UTC
Description of problem:

If you run RHTS workflow and do not pick specific distro (or use -T/--tag) latest tree is automagically selected. Often it is not installable, which causes lot of useless runs.
I asked Bill, what would he recommend to prevent this resources wasting.

Proposal:

Make all workflows except the RTT one default to tag STABLE.
The exception would be if you specify the distro with -d or you specify a different tag on the command line it would NOT add STABLE to the recipe.

I suppose no changes in workflows needed - this will be fixed in scheduler ? 

Discussed & agreed:
 * qe-dept-list
 * RHEL meeting

where's the vote link for this bug? - I really hate cases like this: http://rhts.redhat.com/cgi-bin/rhts/jobs.cgi?id=120776

Comment 2 Bill Peck 2010-04-07 12:37:00 UTC
Notice:

Legacy RHTS is soon to be retired and replaced by Beaker. As part of
this migration process all RHTS bugs need to be re-verified against a
Beaker instance by the cut-off date

   5pm Monday April 12th UTC-4. 

Please confirm this bug is still relevant to Beaker by re-verifying it
against the stage deployment of Beaker https://beaker-stage.app.eng.bos.redhat.com.

To keep this bug open please comment on it

If it has not received a comment by that date the bug will be closed/wontfix.

After the cutoff date all commented bugs will be moved to the Beaker
product.


thank you

Comment 3 Bill Peck 2010-04-14 14:51:24 UTC
The RHTS product is going away.  If any of these bugs still apply to the new Beaker system which is replacing RHTS then please open a new bug with Beaker as the component.

Thanks!

I have implemtned this in the new beaker workflow.

If you don't specify a tag it automatically adds STABLE, unless you specify the distro you want to install.
