removed master el7 check-merged from yaml for now.

I understand you want to remove the el7 job for master, the question is why?

If we want to fix it, I suggest to keep it or at least disable it, otherwise we'll just forget about it.

if its only check-merged then it doesn't give -1 on patches and its not blocking patches.

also, if there is something the infra team can do to help with fixing el7 please let us know

Once we merge https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/62123/5 and https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/61629/ the ppc64le jobs should work.

If there are other jobs failing, please report.

This is related to check-patch, check-path and build-artifacts should run
over all platforms. as many as possible.. Check-merged is a script to test
our functional flows - we run lago, and fedora vm inside that runs vdsmd
and some functional test. currently lago vm is fedora based, so vdsm rpms
to be installed should be built over fedora, therefore the jenkins vm is
fedora as well.

We don't run the functional tests over centos\el7 vm currently, so running
it on jenkins el7 vm is redundant and won't work (the rpms won't fit for
the lago vm inside, and it will only test lago run over el7).

That's why we ask to run check-merged CI only over f24 (as it used to be
not so long ago)

Until recently el7 check merged job didn't exist and we had a job only for fc23 that moved to fc24.
check-merged job is using a lago setup with fc24 vm and checks only fc24 packages.
We are planning to add el7 vm that will run tests on el7 packages as well.

The ppc64le job actually is pending a VDSM fix [1], once the missing repo is provided the job should work.
I'm sorry, but its not possible to have a constant failure on vdsm el7 - the whole system test flow is based on el7 and we can't afford to have it broken.
Please provide info on what is causing the failures so we can work to fix it ASAP.

ppc64le is failing on this error:
10:43:16 Unable to find mock env el7.*ppc64le use one of el6:epel-6-x86_64
el7:epel-7-x86_64 fc22:fedora-22-x86_64 fc23:fedora-23-x86_64
fc24:fedora-24-x86_64
10:43:16 Build step 'Execute shell' marked build as failure

We already discussed about el7 check-merged, we currently don't have
functional tests for el7 so this job should be removed until we will add
the tests.
