The octavia master job started failing recently while building the amphora image with diskimage-builder. Instead of building images from scratch (which is fragile and slow), download pre-built test images from https://tarballs.opendev.org/openstack/octavia/test-images/.

The Octavia devstack plugin skips the DIB build when the image file already exists at the path specified by OCTAVIA_AMP_IMAGE_FILE.

Not sure this will work. The alternative would be to use pre-built image served at https://tarballs.opendev.org/openstack/octavia/test-images/, which might be a better thing to do anyway.

Maybe this is still related to this comment in an old PR.

#3638 (comment)

Is it possible that the pre-built images already have a workaround for this?
