requirement for T224590

@Dzahn thanks for starting this. We can start working on this and setting it up while in covid-19 mode, I am a bit skeptical about switching over from the current one while that mode is ongoing.

A couple of notes. Looking at https://grafana.wikimedia.org/d/000000377/host-overview?orgId=1&refresh=5m&var-server=mendelevium&var-datasource=eqiad%20prometheus%2Fops&var-cluster=misc&from=now-90d&to=now

we can probably cut down on the memory requirement. 4GB seems like it will do just fine. With cached being around 2GB at any point in time and free being another 2GB, we have that room and it's a waste to give the VM memory it doesn't use.

Naming wise... how does otrs1001 sound?

We can probably cut down on the CPU as well, however that is not being reserved as a resource so it's less important.

otrs1001 sounds good to me. I was also just thinking about starting it, not a switch yet. We can see how it goes later. ACK! And thanks for the comments on resources. Let's do 4GB then and keep the CPUs.
