Refactor the CI based docker-machine on Equinix Metal

yankay commented 5 months ago

Which jobs are failing ?

Any job is based docker-machine on Equinix Metal

Kubespray CI / Kubespray CI - molecule_containerd
Kubespray CI / Kubespray CI - molecule_docker

The error job: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubespray/pull/11048/checks?check_run_id=23389220718

Which tests are failing ?

The molecule_* tests

Since when has it been failing ?

2024-04-02

Reason for failure

The CI may be broken because the docker-machine metal uses the API "factory"; it's deprecated. The error logs from the docker-machine:

Apr  3 10:10:00 localhost gitlab-runner[4139064]: #033[31;1mERROR: Error creating machine: Error in driver during machine creation: POST https://api.equinix.com/metal/v1/projects/55a99bbb-8584-4d2b-8d24-2c60b4141118/devices: 422 The 'facility' parameter is not supported for organization 670f523c-7a91-4757-b152-a2160ca4c807.

When I try to run it mannly

Anything else we need to know

The Docker Machine is too old. There are two solutions:

update the docker-machine metal driver to make the test run correctly.
migrate the test to Kubevirt is more reasonable than fixing it.

I'd like to help on this issue. Is there any other options?

The molecule ecosystem is not better than before. I was one of active maintainer of molecule and molecule-plugins. But it seems Ansible business team make decision without caring about the community, which makes active contributers from community not happy.
