I'm ok with this only if it will gate only vdsm-network package, and it
will run in parallel, so
it does not slow down OST run.
For basic suite, we have too many random failures, so I don't think it is
useful, and we should
make it optional.

We still need to allocate bare metal to run it on each CQ run, and I'm not
sure we have available resources for it, pretty sure we don't have since
KubeVirt took half of the hosts.

Is there news here? Would you try adding it?
A benefit for sequential execution, is that you don't need to waste resources on the network suite if the basic suite has finished successfully.

To save time I prefer the network suite to run in parallel to the basic suite.
Its not a matter of preference - there is no other option.
WDYT? will this prolong our CQ iterations?
Also how are we with capacity? Do we have enough? would this be a good candidate to run in a container?

https://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-system-tests_network-suite-4.2/buildTimeTrend shows that it runs for 44-48 minutes.
https://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-system-tests_network-suite-master/buildTimeTrend runs slightly quicker (41-45 minutes)

The network suite is executing nightly for almost a year. It has a caring team that tends to it, and it does not have false positives.
Currently, it currently fails for a week on the 4.2 branch, but it is due to a production code bug.

I would like to see this suite escalated to the importance of the basic suite, making it a gating condition for marking a collection of packages as "tested".
, what should be done to make this happen?
