Description
Observation¶
Seems a different issue than #106179 since the dashboard is accessible this time.
Link to list aggregate runs of the day:
Impact: update approval blocked
Suggestions¶
- caused by downtime of http://download.suse.de
- read suggestions from #105603
- Some gitlab CI steps are failing but we allow them to fail to let other steps continue, e.g. in https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-maintenance/bot-ng/-/jobs/886067 "sync smelt" fails but we allow it to fail so that "sync incidents" can continue but we also don't receive an alert about it and there is not sufficient retrying. We could split the steps into separate pipelines, make each step fatal and add configurable number of retries and interval between retries customized for each step in https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-maintenance/bot-ng/-/blob/master/.gitlab-ci.yml, e.g. for sync smelt long enough , retrying to cover the weekly SUSE IT maintenance window, less for other critical steps
- For retrying we do not even need to change qem-bot, we could use just a wrapper in the gitlab CI job itself, e.g. https://github.com/okurz/leaky_bucket_error_count
- Also look into gitlab CI options to either abort a previous pipeline if a new one is triggered or not start new ones as long as old ones are still running

ok, maybe it wasn't clear. I asked a question and was waiting for the feedback, hence assigning to me. Because it was never assigned to anyone else I wanted to avoid assigning to individual members in the team. You know, don't shoot the messenger :) But I think I can make the ticket more clear by putting back to "New". Another question is if all members of our team know about our best practice to find at least an additional improvement.

The new pipeline system is working, I will be watching it for a few days. We will see how it deals with server errors.

Updated by okurz almost 3 years ago
Could #108824 be a regression due to this? Could it be that due to splitting calls we call isos post on the openQA API with the OBSOLETE parameter on matching products so that now jobs are cancelled unexpectedly and never rescheduled?

So it turned out that #108824 was actually a regression due to the work on this ticket. I suggest to monitor this further and at best resolve next week, still long before the due-date, please :)

No, not this one. #108869 was a regression due to this (the other bot-ng ticket :) ). I agree, we should monitor further.

No further problems observed, can be seen as resolved. We have also five why's analysis planned for a related topic so we will think of improvements in this area anyway.
