I'd really appreciate having an ARM machine available. I've had a few
bugs that occur only on ARM. Is there any ETA for their availability?
Not at the moment. I need to schedule multiple accesses to the data centre due to COVID-19 rules of 4 hour work windows and other controls. Once that I will need to then spend several days getting each one of these working.
- a bastion server working
- a dns/dhcp server working on the local network
- get the mgmt consoles working
- get the serial server working
- find out what each arm box thinks it is doing
- get them installed with something newer than F30
- get their ips working so main infra can get them working
- get main infra to Ansible the systems.
I am currently on extended vacation because I didn't get any time off since January to work on the move from PHX2 to IAD2.. however when that is done, and I have gotten a task list of 'what is considered higher priority' then we can get this project done.
