Description

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: All o3 workers automatically deploy after every update to os-autoinst or openQA-worker

Suggestions

  • Since the automatic deployment has been done on openqaworker7 and #105379 contains enough information to apply the approach on other o3 workers we suggest to continue here
  • Ensure the root filesystem is mounted read-write, i.e. mount -o rw,remount /
  • Enable the timer for "openqa-continuous-update.service", i.e. systemctl enable --now openqa-continuous-update.timer
  • For checking call systemctl status openqa-continuous-update and check results, e.g. journalctl -e -u openqa-continuous-update and check for any unforeseen errors and such
  • Monitor the state of the systems after some hours
  • Monitor again on the next day

Since it has been done on openqaworker7 and #105379 contains enough information to apply the approach on other o3 workers I'd suggest we can continue here.

Looks like just setting the mount option to rw won't cut it. What I've stated in #105379#note-10 is true, but when one wants to actually install a package one runs into:

error: can't create transaction lock on /usr/lib/sysimage/rpm/.rpm.lock (Read-only file system)

or just:

openqaworker1:~ # touch /foo
touch: '/foo' kann nicht berührt werden: Das Dateisystem ist nur lesbar

Using mount -o rw,remount / doesn't help as well. Not sure on which levels the file system is still set to be read-only.

Looks like it is also read-only on btrfs-level but one can simply make it read-write:

openqaworker1:~ # btrfs property get -ts / ro
ro=true
openqaworker1:~ # btrfs property set -ts / ro false
openqaworker1:~ # touch /foo
openqaworker1:~ # rm /foo
openqaworker1:~ # zypper in openQA-continuous-update

I've just invoked openqaworker1:~ # systemctl start transactional-update.service to see whether the setup will persist after rebooting the system via the transactional setup. Unfortunately there's currently nothing to be updated:

So I'm waiting for some updates to test whether it actually works (before applying the btrfs changes on all other workers).

Now there were some updates. I also rebooted the system. The root filesystem is still read-write so I suppose it worked. It also doesn't look like there are any other read-only sub volumes left. So now I could apply the config on all other o3 workers (openqaworker1 and openqaworker7 have been handled).

Edited /etc/fstab and executed mount -o rw,remount / && btrfs property set -ts / ro false && zypper ref && zypper -n in openQA-continuous-update && systemctl enable --now openqa-continuous-update.timer on all o3 workers mentioned on https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqav3/wiki/#Manual-command-execution-on-o3-workers. (Of course I left out the file system configuration when no read-only btrfs was used anyways.)


Monitor again on the next day

To have a comparison, currently the fail/incomplete rate looks like this:

openqa=> with finished as (select result, t_finished from jobs) select (extract(YEAR from t_finished)) as year, (extract(MONTH from t_finished)) as month, (extract(DAY from t_finished)) as day, round(count(*) filter (where result = 'failed' or result = 'incomplete') * 100. / count(*), 2)::numeric(5,2)::float as ratio_of_all_failures_or_incompletes, count(*) total from finished where t_finished >= '2022-05-10' group by year, month, day order by year, month, day asc;

The journal looks good on the x86_64 workers. It seems like the repo wasn't reachable for some time but that didn't lead to any problems (like the service being stuck). The rate of failures/incompletes also didn't change significantly.

Apparently it doesn't work on aarch64 and power8. I'll look into it. Works now on these hosts as well. It was just a differently configured repo name.

I checked

for i in openqaworker1 openqaworker4 openqaworker7 imagetester rebel; do echo $i && ssh root@$i "systemctl status openqa-continuous-update.service; rpm -q --changelog openQA | head; rpm -q --changelog os-autoinst | head" ; done

and all looks good.

I updated https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqav3/wiki/Wiki#Recurring-automatic-update-of-openQA-workers

Considering this done.
