| ==== Release-blocking images must boot ====
| |
| All release-blocking images must boot in their supported configurations.

| |
| {{hidden|header=Supported media types|content=Release-blocking live and dedicated installer images must boot when written to optical media of an appropriate size (if applicable) and when written to a USB stick with '''at least one''' of the [[How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB|officially supported methods]].

| * Release-blocking ARM disk images must boot to the initial-setup utility.
| |
| * Release-blocking cloud images must allow login with the user authentication configuration requested during instance creation.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Boot menu contents|content=The boot menu for all supported installer and live images should include an entry which causes both installation and the installed system to use a generic, highly compatible video driver (such as 'vesa'). This mechanism should work correctly, launching the installer or desktop and attempting to use the generic driver.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}
| |
| {{hidden|header=System-specific bugs|content=System-specific bugs don't necessarily constitute an infringement of this criterion - for instance, if the installer or desktop fails to start because of a bug in support for some specific graphics card, that is unlikely to constitute a violation.

| |
| === <span style="text-decoration:underline">Installer requirements</span> ===
| |
| Except where otherwise specified, each of these requirements applies to all supported configurations described [[#initialization-requirements|above]]. These requirements do not apply to images which do not use the installer.
| |
| | |
| {{anchor|installer-must-run}}
| |
| ==== Installer must run ====
| |
| The installer must run when launched normally from the release-blocking images.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Launched normally?|content='Launched normally' means from the boot menu on a dedicated installer image, and from the desktop on a live image.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| | |
| {{anchor|remote-package-sources}}
| |
| ==== Remote package sources ====
| |
| When using the dedicated installer images, the installer must be able to use either HTTP or FTP repositories (or both) as package sources. The network install image must default to a valid publicly-accessible package source.

| {{anchor|dvd-package-source}}
| |
| ==== Media package source ====
| |
| When using a dedicated installer image that contains packages, the installer must be able to use the install medium as a package source.

| {{anchor|installer-interfaces}}
| |
| ==== Installation interfaces ====
| |
| When using a dedicated installer image, the installer must be able to complete an installation using the text, graphical and VNC installation interfaces.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Showstoppers|content=This criterion covers showstopper bugs in the installer for which there isn't any other specific criterion: obviously, it can't 'complete an installation' if there's a showstopper. However, it does not mean that any failed installation test at all constitutes a release blocking issue: an installer which works fine in most cases but crashes when you attach it to a Hitachi hard disk on a wet Thursday is still 'able to complete an installation'.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| | |
| {{anchor|package-sets}}
| |
| ==== Package sets ====
| |
| When doing a graphical install using the dedicated installer images, the installer must be able to install each of the release blocking desktops, as well as the minimal package set.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Not all at once!|content=This means you must be able to do a GNOME install, then start over and do a KDE install, then start over and do a minimal install. Not necessarily that you should be able to do any combination of them all at once.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}
| |
| {{hidden|header=Supplementary groups not included|content=This criterion does not cover all the supplementary groups the installer interface may offer for the release-blocking desktops; it only covers the desktop package sets themselves. This clarification was requested in [[rhbug:959696||bug #959696]].|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| |
| ==== Disk layouts ====
| |
| The installer must be able to complete an installation to a single disk using automatic partitioning.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Details!|content=...well, so long as the disk is big enough, of course. It must work whether the disk is formatted or not and whether or not it contains any existing data - but since this is an Alpha, it's OK if it can only install to a disk with existing data by overwriting it.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| | |
| {{anchor|scripted-user-creation}}
| |
| ==== Scripted user creation ====
| |
| The scripted installation mechanism must provide a working function for creating local user accounts, including the ability to specify a hashed password, and for specifying a hashed password for the root account.

| |
| | |
| {{anchor|rescue-mode}}
| |
| ==== Rescue mode ====
| |
| The rescue mode of the installer must start successfully and be able to detect and mount an existing default installation.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Start successfully?|content='Start successfully' means it should be able to get you to a console that can interact with the mounted installation.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| |
| ==== Failure reporting ====
| |
| The installer must be able to report failures to Bugzilla, with appropriate information included.
| |
| {{hidden|header=You mean, ANY failures?|content=No, silly - we mean crashes, really. This is about the crash reporting capabilities: when the installer crashes, it should pop up some dialogs that let you send a report containing data on the crash.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| {{anchor|expected-installed-system-boot-behavior}}
| |
| ==== Expected installed system boot behavior ====
| |
| * A working mechanism to create a user account must be clearly presented during installation and/or first boot of the installed system.
| |
| * A system installed with a release-blocking desktop must boot to a log in screen where it is possible to log in to a working desktop using a user account created during installation or a 'first boot' utility.
| |
| * A system installed without a graphical package set must boot to a state where it is possible to log in through at least one of the default virtual consoles.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Encrypted partitions|content=In all of the above cases, if any system partitions were encrypted as part of the installation, the boot process must prompt for the passphrase(s) and correctly unlock the partition(s) when provided with the correct passphrase(s).|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}
| |
| {{hidden|header=User intervention|content=In all of the above cases, the boot should proceed without any unexpected user intervention being required. On a graphical install, if the user explicitly intervenes to prevent graphical boot by passing a bootloader parameter, the non-graphical requirement comes into effect.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}
| |
| {{hidden|header=System-specific bugs|content=System-specific bugs don't necessarily constitute an infringement of this criterion - for instance, if the system fails to boot because of a bug in the support some specific system's hardware, that is unlikely to constitute a violation unless the system is an extremely popular one. See [[Blocker_Bug_FAQ]] for more discussion of this.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}
| |
| {{hidden|header=Use for severe issues in applying updates|content=These criteria can be used to cover known severe issues in applying post-release updates.

| |
| {{hidden|header=Bugs in particular updates|content=A bug in some particular update package will not usually constitute a violation of this criterion.

| |
| It must be possible to trigger a clean system shutdown using standard console commands.
| |
| {{hidden|header=What do you mean, 'clean'?|content=The system must shut down in such a way that storage volumes (e.g. simple partitions, LVs and PVs, RAID arrays) are taken offline safely and the system's BIOS or EFI is correctly requested to power down the system.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| These requirements apply only to the Server product.
| |
| | |
| {{anchor|remote-authentication}}
| |
| ==== Remote authentication ====
| |
| It must be possible to join the system to a FreeIPA or Active Directory domain at install time and post-install, and the system must respect the identity, authentication and access control configuration provided by the domain.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Non-interactive only OK|content=The install-time capability is not required to be interactive (i.e. it is acceptable for it to be possible by kickstart only).|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| {{anchor|firewall-configuration}}
| |
| | |
| ==== Firewall configuration ====
| |
| After system installation without explicit firewall configuration, the system firewall must be active on all non-loopback interfaces. The only ports which may be open to incoming traffic are port 22 (ssh), port XX (Cockpit web interface), and any ports associated with server Roles selected during installation. Supported install-time firewall configuration options must work correctly.
| |
| {{hidden|header=Install time configuration|content=To explain the last part of this criterion - it is possible to include firewall configuration options in a kickstart-driven installation, and the criterion requires that those options work as expected. The options considered to be 'supported' are those documented at [[Anaconda/Kickstart#firewall]]. The case of a conflict between role-specified and manually-specified firewall configuration is not considered to be covered by these criteria.|headerstyle=background:#e5e5e5|fw1=normal|ta1=left}}

| |
| | |
| == Contingency Plan ==
| |
| * If all of the ''Alpha Release Requirements'' are not met by 20:00 ETC on Wednesday (1:00 AM UTC Thursday) the week prior to release day, the release will be delayed by one week so that the Alpha Release Requirements can be met.
| |
| * One week will be added to all remaining tasks in the release schedule, including the final release date.
| |
| * This decision will be made at the [[Engineering_Readiness_Meetings |''Go/No-Go'' Meeting]].
| |
| | |
| == Confirming Alpha Requirements ==
| |
| [[QA]] has the responsibility of determining whether the criteria for the release has been met (as outlined above) through discussion with Development and Release Engineering. QA's findings will be reviewed and discussed at the [[Engineering_Readiness_Meetings |''Go/No-Go'' Meeting]].
