#341: create watcher to download iso images one time during test ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hongqing | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Automate installation test plan Component: core | Keywords: ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- test wrapper will download the iso images for each run if we use the watcher to monitor the website for the images and trigger the test. James gave a multi-stage download solution. [[BR]]
* running a squid proxy on your autotest-server to cache the ISO downloads so that clients really only download the image 1 time.[[BR]]
* implementing some two-step ISO download process. Step one is a autotest server job (initiated by a watcher) that caches the ISO's in an NFS ro mount point (e.g. /var/cache/autoqa/install-isos). Step two is another ISO watcher that monitors /var/cache/autoqa/install-isos and initiates tests when new content is available[[BR]]
I have written a samll script to watch the iso images at /var/cache/autoqa /install-isos[[BR]]

I checked the existence and updated time to determine if it is a new one. I am not familiar with this part, do you have any idea about this?
