Mailing list test


Can't make the date?
If you come to this page before or after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test, file any bugs you find at Fedora CoreOS issue tracker, and add your results to the results section. If this page is more than a month old when you arrive here, please check the current schedule and see if a similar but more recent Test Day is planned or has already happened.

What to test?

Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on Fedora CoreOS

Who's available?

The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...

For real time help, please join us on the IRC: #fedora-coreos[?] on https://libera.chat/.

Documentation is also available here. Documentation feedback is welcome through chat, mailing list, github tracker and in the form of a pull request to the documentation sources.

Prerequisites for Test Day

  • Virtual machine (x86_64, aarch64, s390x)
  • Test day Image

Grab images/artifacts/information for the most current next stream release (38) from our download page: https://getfedora.org/en/coreos/download?tab=cloud_operators&stream=next

How to test?

Run the tests

Visit the results page and click on the column title links to see the tests that need to be run: most column titles are links to a specific test case. Follow the instructions there, then enter your results by clicking the Enter result button for the test.

Reporting bugs

Please report all bugs, issues or enhancement proposals to the Fedora CoreOS issue tracker.

If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask on IRC #fedora-coreos[?], #fedora-test-day[?] or #fedora-qa[?] and we will help you.

  1. A few things did not resonate as straightforward in the documentation for a novice aws user. Since my AWS account was pretty much 'clean' I had to figure out a few details that led me to a successful implementation of this test case. Things that slowed me down: 1. Create private VPC with a set up of subnets with an appropriate pool of IPv4 CIDR 2. Security groups inbound rules / adding the SSH access for the sg 3. Creation of elastic IP, and elastic IP association

  1. 1. Launch with gcloud using GCP web console, and also add an Ignition file that includes ssh public key with hhei, verify vm works well and hhei can login via ssh. 2. Launch with gcloud from local client, and no any custom instance metadata, verify vm works well and can ssh using $ gcloud compute ssh core@fcos --zone=us-central1-a.
