Introduction
The software provisioning infrastructure provides the technical tools to support the UMD release process from pulling packages from the developers repositories to the build of a release.
Technical description
The software provisioning infrastructure is composed by the following components:
- Integration with RT, a new product release (the tuple Product, Platform, Architecture) is associated with a RT ticket, which tracks the status of the product in the software provisioning process.
- Bouncer: this tool, starting from the information provided during the submission of the product to UMD, queries the developers repositories as well as the associated operating system add-ons repositories to determine which packages compose the product and must be downloaded into the UMD repositories
- Repositories, the following respositories must be maintained for every operating system and major release supported:
- Untested: contains the packages to be installed during the verification
- Testing: contains the packages to be installed during staged rollout
- Base: contains the packages released in the first major release
- Update: contains the packages released in the update releases
- Release Candidate: it is generated before a UMD release to test the installability
- Front-end
The software provisioning infrastructure must support multiple operating system (SL based, and Debian based) and major releases (at least two major releases).
