Describe what you would like us to do:

This has been on my radar for quite some time, but we might be able to get an official test machine. Until then I can provide access to existing systems/VMs.

Do we want to keep this ticket here to track this?

Or should we just let @sharkcz work on it and let us know when it's ready? :)

@kevin, I think keeping the ticket open to track this is a good idea, but I'll leave it up to y'all to decide how to manage your issue tracker ;).

I'd like to jump in as officially we'd like also to investigate that even just for official CentOS SIGs builds on https://cbs.centos.org koji instance.
Is that possible to get access to s390x infra ?

@sharkcz How does it looks with the testing machine?

@sharkcz How does it looks with the testing machine?

@sharkcz @arrfab are there any updates to this ticket that need to be reflected?

@pcreech17 I'd like myself who to ping to get access to some s390x VMs so I'm at the "requester" side, like you , on this ticket ;-)

We have the 2352969 - ZCommunity3 account for the Fedora Copr purposes, where we have formally granted to start up to 18 machines for building in Fedora Copr. I'd be happy to start a VM there if we have a formal ACK from IBM folks who sponsor this.

@praiskup Were you able to find somebody from IBM who can allow the requester to get a test VM?

Any news here? Should we still keep this open?

I would let it open. There is a project running for having a whole mainframe set up and available for the OpenMainframe project (part of Linux Foundation) and I am planning to use those resources for the additional VM as we (Fedora) are participating there in the Linux Working Group.

Awesome. Thanks!

another CentOS SIG recently asked (on irc) about s390x support for centos koji (cbs.centos.org) so , as Copr got access to resources, can I ask what's the process to even just have one VM for centos SIGs ?
