Blueprint changed by Robie Basak: Whiteboard changed: - http://pad.ubuntu.com/uds-q-servercloud-arm-deployment + User Stories + + Alice's new ARM server cluster has arrived and she has plugged it in. + She would like to take the charms that she has been testing in a third + party Openstack cluster and deploy them to her new ARM server cluster. + + ARM servers are so new that Bob, a seasoned datacentre technician, does + not know how they work. But Bob does know how to use MAAS, because he + has been testing it using his Intel servers. This was easy for him + because he knows how PXE works. Bob would like MAAS on his ARM servers + so that he doesn't need to care about how the system management works + underneath. + + Assumptions + + ARM systems without system management via IPMI and U-Boot pxelinux + emulation are out of scope for this cycle. + + ARM systems that we do not have hardware to test with at the start of + this cycle may not be able to be considered. + + Test Plans + + Charm testing on ARM hardware. This will exercise MAAS as well. + + Release Note + + MAAS now works on ARM! This also enables juju on ARM bare metal. + + Notes: + + What will the supported installation methods be for Q? Eg. netinst (manual), MAAS, dd an oem image, cloud image, ...? + Use cases: + First time by-hand install (how important?) + juju-based bare-metal deployment + OpenStack (important, but out of scope) + First time by-hand install: + netinst sufficient? + Mechanisms for the installer to install/configure U-Boot. -- Please can we document some goals, use cases and assumptions for the quantal release cycle and fill out the work items to support this activity [james-page] -- Please also include work items needed to enable MAAS following the template @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BlueprintSpec [a.rosales]
