[JIRA] (JENKINS-59566) Automatically label Scientific Linux agents

Issue Type:	Improvement
Assignee:	Unassigned
Components:	platformlabeler-plugin
Created:	2019-09-27 17:19
Labels:	hacktoberfest newbie-friendly
Priority:	Minor
Reporter:	Mark Waite

Automatically label Red Hat Enterprise Linux agents with an easy to read label that includes the architecture, operating system name, and operating system version. Include a sample /etc/os-release file in the test suite and include the output of lsb_release -a in the test suite so that others can confirm the label operates as expected without installing their own copy of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Refer to pull request 98 for an example of the files to modify.

Refer to generate_lsb_release_output.sh. and generate_os_release_output.sh for instructions to create the data files used to test operating system version reporting.

Hi Mark

Getting the hang of it slowly but surely.

One question though, the Scientific Linux version 6.10 doesn't seem to have a /etc/os-release file.

How to proceed? Just not include the os-release test file?

Mark

Interesting. If it has an lsb_relase command available, I'd use that as the first point of reference. If the lsb_release command is not available or is commonly not installed, is there another file or command which can identify Scientific Linux?
