including multiple catalogs(community, certified catalogs) for every cases will take too long time ,I think just one case is okay
[knarra] I think you can do filtering and mirror just one operator if you feel it takes too long but i feel worth testing to uncover more bugs in every area

updated to `archivesize =1`, the root cause for `archivesize =1` is because when the total data is too big and set archivesize too low , will hit error
[knarra] what i mean is to add another case for `archivesize=1` along with the existing case where `archivesize is 8` instead of updating the existing one.

For id=OCP-72912 

1) added  disk2mirror commands

2) add `--since flag` , will do incremetal test ;

3) including multiple catalogs(community, certified catalogs) for every cases will take too long time ,I think just one case is okay;

4) will add case later ;

5) --since date just for incremetal test for localhost cache, not check the build data for remote image;

6) added release image setting;

7)  will  research it;

For OCP-72771 , we update the imagesetconfig , compared with 72912, we used the same imagesetconfig;

For OCP-72913

1)  done;

2) done;

3)  we have checked the `shortestPath true` in case OCP-72991;

4)  no need to  include multiple catalogs(community, certified catalogs) for every cases;

5) updated to `archivesize =1`,  the root cause for `archivesize =1` is because when the total data is too big and set archivesize too low , will hit error .  

yinzhou@redhat.com some comments for the test cases

• please help include disk2mirror commands
• Even if you do not add `--since flag` since there is operator new version it is going to definitely mirror the same.
• you might need to consider `removing the file completely, then mirroring only from a certain date` to see if operators released from that date gets mirrored.
• I see you are testing with a single catalog, worth including multiple catalogs(community, certified catalogs) and filtering as well . Try including versions released before certain date and verify they get mirrored, now remove the versions completely from imageSetConfig.yaml and include --since and make sure it only mirrors pacakges released after that.
• Include negative scenario like mirror the contents, move the archive date to a one month before, now try mirroring again and see to that it should not mirror anything.
• worth testing what happens if you include `additionalImages` that were built before the --since date, see to that if your mirror fails with error or gives warning. It should ideally throw warning/error and stop there until you remove that version
• Does this not apply for `ocp release images` ?
• The caveat here is the user/admin changes the underlying data store and cache, i.e saves it, deletes it and re-instates it, the dates will be offset. worth checking how to add test for this.

• How does this differ from the previous test case ?

https://polarion.engineering.redhat.com/polarion/#/project/OSE/workitem?id=OCP-72913

• please help perform disk2mirror ; copy files from same dir to registry
• i see sherine gave an example to copy all the tars to different directory and mirror from there. copy files to another directory and mirror from a different directory. skhoury@redhat.com is this to test https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CLID-21 ?
• Validate the mirrroed images, `shortestPath true` is being mirrored correctly etc.
• include community & certified operator catalogs too
• please help add a case to test with `archivesize =1` as i remember this failed for certain users/customers in v1

rh-ee-aguidi is there any thing that needs to be tested here https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CLID-23 ? I understand no, could you please help confirm ? thanks !!

skhoury@redhat.com  rh-ee-aguidi     knarra@redhat.com   Could you please help review the cases , thanks  .
