Change the base image for the Pbench Server container to ubi8 #3461

Closed webbnh closed 1 year ago

webbnh commented 1 year ago

Since running a container using a "newer" base image on an "older" kernel is not reliable, this PR changes the default base image used to build the Pbench Server container from ubi9 to ubi8 so that it can be run on our Production server (which is currently RHEL-8.7).

PBENCH-1181

Subsequent investigation has revealed that the problem which this PR was intended to solve was caused by an explicit change to rsyslogd, which means that we're subject to the problem, regardless of the base container image that we select, when we upgrade the package (assuming that the base image wasn't already upgraded before we pull it).

The going-forward-useful portions of this PR are now in #3474, and so I'm closing this PR. (I'm expecting the rsyslogd problem to be resolved externally when the package is updated...soon.)
