Julia, A basic summary of CERN does burn-in is at http://openstack-in-production.blogspot.ch/2018/03/hardware-burn-in-in-cern-datacenter.html
Given that the burn in takes weeks to run, we'd see it as a different step to cleaning (with some parts in common such as firmware upgrades to latest levels) Tim -----Original Message----- From: Julia Kreger <juliaashleykre...@gmail.com> Reply-To: "OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions)" <openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org> Date: Thursday, 8 March 2018 at 22:10 To: "OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions)" <openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org> Subject: [openstack-dev] [ironic] PTG Summary ... Cleaning - Burn-in As part of discussing cleaning changes, we discussed supporting a "burn-in" mode where hardware could be left to run load, memory, or other tests for a period of time. We did not have consensus on a generic solution, other than that this should likely involve clean-steps that we already have, and maybe another entry point into cleaning. Since we didn't really have consensus on use cases, we decided the logical thing was to write them down, and then go from there. Action Items: * Community members to document varying burn-in use cases for hardware, as they may vary based upon industry. * Community to try and come up with a couple example clean-steps. __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
