Purpose: store results from Fedora CI, OpenQA and other test systems

Architecture

ResultsDB as a system is made up of two parts - a results storage API and a simple html based frontend for humans to view the results accessible through that API (resultsdb and resultsdb_frontend).

Deployment

The only part of resultsdb deployment that isn’t currently in the ansible playbooks is database initialization (disabled due to bug).

Once the resultsdb app has been installed, initialize the database, run:

resultsdb init_db

Updating

Database schema changes are not currently supported with resultsdb and the app can be updated like any other web application:

update app
restart httpd

Backup

All important information in ResultsDB is stored in its database - backing up that database is sufficient for backup and restoring that database from a snapshot is sufficient for restoring.
