Description

Observation

https://monitor.qa.suse.de/d/WDQA-Power8-4-kvm/worker-dashboard-qa-power8-4-kvm?editPanel=65105&tab=alert failed since 2022-12-18 03:00 so the weekly reboot that triggered this, see https://monitor.qa.suse.de/d/WDQA-Power8-4-kvm/worker-dashboard-qa-power8-4-kvm?editPanel=65105&tab=alert&orgId=1&from=1671320482076&to=1671348249406 in detail. The machine is reachable over IPMI but does not show anything obvious.

Suggestions

  • Pause related alert(s)
  • Remove from salt
  • Trigger OSD deployment which failed due to this
  • Trigger reboot
  • Look into the other recent related tickets, e.g. about worker cache sqlite lookup something
  • #114565 and other related

Rollback steps

  • Bring back to salt
  • Unpause alert after resolution

Reboot seems to be stable.
So added that machine back to salt, which worked fine.
And according to https://stats.openqa-monitor.qa.suse.de/alerting/list the alerts were already enabled.

over how many tries? 30?

ok for now. We will treat the machine as "stable" and will be informed by failing alerts if the problem persists. I assume that maybe some recent update also made Leap 15.3 ppc machines less stable. If that is true we could add all our ppc machines to the automatic recovery same as we already have for qa-power8-5 and powerqaworker-qam-1 and aarch64 machines.

For more additional information: It did not come up "unexpectedly" but nsinger triggered a reboot over IPMI, no magic done :) He also checked SoL and found that there is nothing visible there and that the machine does not react to any action on SoL.
