look and feel!), we're asking that you hold off submitting jobs to LAVA until we give the go-ahead.
"Hold-off" as in "please don't submit jobs now - they disrupt us", or "if you submit now, be prepared to not get expected results"?
Mostly the first, in that we need a pipeline to be able to submit jobs and check them.
Problem is that with CI we cannot really hold off submitting jobs because that happens ad-hoc when a build finishes.
I understand the need to have a clean lab pipe. However, for that we need to work on a mechanism that allows you to put submitted jobs into a queue that isn't processed etc.
Would also be useful to put jobs there during maintenance so the frontend doesn't fail submitting it's job.
I exactly made a switch to allow non-fail behavior recently. I didn't actually activated it though, as previous LAVA downtime finished before I could. But we now have infra in place to avoid downtime propagation.
And if it's useful for Validation team to temporary cut any submissions from android-build, I can do it easily and with priority over IRC or email any time.
