Existing Tower automation in 'infra-ansible'
For awareness, we have a lot of Tower Automation already in the infra-ansible
CoP repo - both roles and playbooks.
There probably is an opportunity for collaboration to avoid dup effort.
@ericzolf tagging you here in case you didn't see this issue.
Yes, sorry for getting mute, it's a fair comment and I have been thinking about it. My first idea would be to rename the repo to automate-redhat
, tower just being a sub-directory of it, and put a focus on fostering best practices of automating Red Hat own's products by:
- linking to other repositories with automation of Red Hat products (there are many out there)
- hosting small pieces of automation and documentation which don't justify an own repo
Does it sound like a plan?
probably better we discuss this more in a cop meeting because this is happening everywhere. We have a lot of content that is similar, that can be integrated but, we have no middle ground or who exactly makes the final decision. We are going to have a lot of disagreements on how everything is written.
@ericzolf the combined repo for automation of many of the Red Hat related products is what infra-ansible already does. Take a look at the roles directory for a better understand of everything that's there. Feel free to contribute there as well.
However, I think what's more of an aim here is to "combine" multiple parallel efforts around the Tower Automation. I'll kick off an e-mail thread to discuss further, as I believe this could live under the Automation CoP - to @jlozadad 's point.
we should also take this into account https://github.com/redhat-cop/infra-ansible/issues/275
Let's definitely make this a CoP topic. I've also done Tower configuration automation here: https://github.com/sabre1041/managing-ocp-install-beyond/tree/master/roles/tower_config

And we've got a few other links from different persons since we started this discussion, internal or external, so we need definitely a strategy on how to get a "best of" of all these and join forces to maintain it.
