sysadmin-qa group for deploying waiverdb

[Dan Callaghan]

Hi folks,

My Factory 2.0 teammate Matt Jia, with some help from me, has been 
working on getting Waiverdb deployed in Fedora infrastructure so that we 
can start hooking things up to it.

(For anyone who hasn't heard of Waiverdb before, it is a service for 
recording waivers against test results in ResultsDB. More info at 
https://pagure.io/waiverdb and in the Focus Doc at 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Factory2/Focus/WaiverDB).

We would like to request a FAS group be given access to run waiverdb 
playbooks in stage/prod using rbac-playbook, so that we don't have to 
keep bugging Ralph for everything. :-) Our first idea was to re-use the 
`sysadmin-qa` group for this.

I have a bit of experience with using rbac-playbook myself, for the 
Beaker playbooks, and I'm assuming that ResultsDB and other related 
services are also set up the same way with `sysadmin-qa`. So I think it 
makes sense to do the same with Waiverdb.

How does that sound to the Fedora QA team?

Also, would someone be willing to sponsor Matt (FAS username mjia) into 
sysadmin-qa? Matt and I sit together here in the office so I am always 
available to help out too.

It sounds good to me, more helping hands are always welcome :-)

I don't really know the infra processes, so the right person to ping here
would be tflink from our team (he's in Raleigh this week on an Infra FAD),
or kevin or puiterwijk from Infra team.

They're actually in the same room :-P

I've added and sponsored mjia to sysadmin-qa.

Dan, I assume that you'll be helping him figure out the bastion hosts
etc.?

No objection here either. Note sysadmin-qa membership also grants admin
rights to the openQA deployments, I believe; if anyone's interested in
learning how to look after those, feel free to poke me.
