Recently I've been running out of disk space during my koji builds on aarch64 builders. We currently have 7 aarch64 builders. In IRC @arrfab suggested reducing the number of builders and reallocating the resources to the remaining ones. I currently do manual builds for the kernel, grub2, and fwupd on aarch64-01. aarch64-07 is not in the default channel, I think because it's used for some other important task like images or repo generation. My suggestion would be to delete aarch64-05 and aarch64-06, and reallocate the resources to aarch64-01, aarch64-02, aarch64-03, and aarch64-04. Hopefully @bstinson can weigh in on this as well to let us know if he agrees with this plan.

I'll take care of that and also document the SOP for the decommissioning step Worth still clarifying the kernel build on aarch64-01, as (based on discussion with Brian and Johnny) it was supposed to happen on dedicated kbuilder-aarch64.rdu2.centos.org node (and also kbuilder-ppc64le.rdu2.centos.org for Power)
A rebalance removing aarch64-{05,06} is OK with me. You are correct that aarch64-07 is for images only and we need to keep that one around.
as aarch64-0{1..3} were on one hypervisor and {4..6} on the second one, I had to delete 3 and 6, and then I was able to increase disk space on 1,2,4,5, so you can enable back these kojid on koji.mbox setup. I see though that 07 was added in default channel, probably as workaround to build some pkgs recently, so feel free also to then remove it to dedicate it only for images build tasks and rpm on builders 1,2,4,5
