Details

I am requesting to add 4 mac minis to the PDL with same device characteristics as the ones used in CI, the purpose for these will be to reproduce and investigate issues found in CI.
Given the recent OS update to MacOS, I'd like to have 2 of these running 10.10 and 2 running 10.14.
It should be set up to run any tests that we currently run in CI, but NOT used as part of the regular run hardware pool.
Duration of the device in the PDL (>3 months we should consider hosting with Bitbar): Until any device changes occur for MacOS, Not in bitbar to facilitate updates and debugging.

Any reason that we couldn't have these in the data center like the rest of the minis? RelOps has a similar set up where we've taken 4 minis from the overall pool and set aside as "staging" workers, so that we can test our changes outside of production.

I'm not sure if 10.10 can run on the new mini hardware, plus we're still testing the new hardware to determine how to support it in production as Apple has made some changes that break our existing management.

What's you're timeline for needing these?

We need to have a visual from the mac minis to investigate media issues so they would need to be hooked up to a screen.

Can we have these by the beginning of July?
