This task will track the setup of the three new restbase testing hosts, restbase-dev100[123].

This task should be reviewed and any needed corrections/adjustments from serivces. (Ensuring we partition and install as needed.)

These are out of warranty R720xd systems that will be retrofitted with LFF to SFF adapters and new SSDs in 4 of their 12 disk bays. Setup then should continue to partition and format these similar to how restbase production hosts are setup. All the extra disks (non-ssd) don't need to be setup.

The systems currently reside in three different racks and rows, which is ideal. Services preferred if none of them share a rack.

Steps for each system are identical:

restbase-dev1001 (WMF4086):

• - update racktables and physical label of host
• - remove first 4 HDD bays and replace with Intel S3610 800GB SSDs. SSDs were ordered on T150968, and adapters ordered on T150480
• - setup network port, internal vlan
• - check all bios/drac settings
• - update and test dns entries (mgmt and production) https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/327051/
• - install_module update (dhcp and partman) https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/327118/
• - 4th SSD not showing fixed via sub-task T153139
• - set all ssds in individual raid0 hw arrays, so their sw raid setup is identical to production and other restbase-test hosts.
• - install os (jessie)
• - accept/sign puppet/salt
• - hand off to services for implementation

restbase-dev1002 (WMF4091):

• - update racktables and physical label of host
• - remove first 4 HDD bays and replace with Intel S3610 800GB SSDs. SSDs were ordered on T150968, and adapters ordered on T150480
• - setup network port, internal vlan
• - check all bios/drac settings
• - update and test dns entries (mgmt and production) https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/327051/
• - install_module update (dhcp and partman) https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/327118/
• - set all ssds in individual raid0 hw arrays, so their sw raid setup is identical to production and other restbase-test hosts.
• - install os (jessie)
• - accept/sign puppet/salt
• - hand off to services for implementation

restbase-dev1003 (WMF4093):

• - update racktables and physical label of host
• - remove first 4 HDD bays and replace with Intel S3610 800GB SSDs. SSDs were ordered on T150968, and adapters ordered on T150480
