Open msdisme opened 8 months ago
Update from yesterday's ope meeting:
We will move forward with standing up a cluster as a backup for ope courses.
In short:
Pros:
Cons:
I'm going close this, and open another issue to track setting up this cluster.
@dystewart @joachimweyl I'd like to propose closing this issue; I think we're happy with the performance of the production cluster so far, and while we plan to deploy another cluster to act as a RHOAI test cluster, that use is somewhat orthagonal to this issue.
This issue needs to remain open. We have requests from BU for this, and I believe the OpenShift AI tests can simultaneously work as an option to satisfy those requests, even though the releases won't be equivalent.
Once we have finished the basic testing with the classes on equivalent software to production, then we can save that configuration in case we need to spin up a production backup during the semster, and then close this one and proceed to further testing.
The decision not to create a separate OPE cluster was made a few weeks ago, the thinking being that it was better to add additional nodes to the current cluster if needed. Since then, a large class has been added (3, up from original 2 classes). This issue will revisit whether we should have a second OPE cluster as a fallback.
