Status: RESOLVED INVALID

Description

[John O'Duinn [:joduinn] (please use "needinfo?" flag)]

The following minis are no longer being used in production; they need to be brought back to the office during next MPT trip, so they can be reimaged for other work. 

talos-rev1-xp01-04
talos-rev1-vista01-04
talos-rev1-tiger01-04
talos-rev2-leopard01-04
talos-rev1-linux01-05

(These can be taken offline at any time - they are not in use.)

Where is this list of machines coming from? I don't see them in inventory or in DNS. The only ones I still see in inventory are talos-rev2-tiger* (not in this list) and a single talos-rev1-xp02.mv.

We found this list of machines in the configs of a master we were powering off (see discussion in bug#568291). There is something odd about inventory of these machines, because we just yesterday found talos-rev1-xp01/02 already powered off and on jabba's desk.

Can you just check MPT and 2nd floor QA lab for those machines and bring them back to jabba's desk if you find them anywhere?

I checked again in the QA lab and I'm 99% certain these are not at MPT. Also the fact that they are no longer in inventory, dns or dhcp means they must have already been recycled/decommissioned at some point in the past.

Bug 545249 is a good place to look.

Yes, a lot of those have been converted to cmbbot-* machines. The others must have been repurposed at some point in the past. I've done an extensive search of MPT for any talos-rev1 minis and there are none there. The minis on my desk were removed from dns and inventory when they were powered off and will be added back in under new hostnames when they have a new purpose.
