It looks like the situation has changed a bit since the ticket was opened. Now i see this job as cancelled, and the parent job as failed (with what looks like a normal test failure).

Putting the ticket back into the queue for estimation, since the expected result here is not quite clear to me.

Btw. Most of the cancellations do not have a scheduled for more than X days reason. So it wasn't triggered by the max_job_scheduled_time limit in the scheduler.

The way I read the description, this is the situation:

  • I see a lot of old, cancelled jobs i.e. 12 days old and this is also true for the children of the clones of the parent
  • The parent failed due to network issues. This shouldn't be related to cancelled children.
  • I'm assuming the jobs were manually cancelled. @okurz suggests this was automatic. Either way it means the jobs were never run.

I would suggest adding cancellation reasons everywhere, to make similar issues easier to investigate.

Drafted a PR adding reasons to other cases: https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/4681

And I see why Oli mentioned the prio. This would affect what's now called cancelled based on job settings via API call in my PR.

I still want to estimate this to make sure we understand the issue, but taking it now since it's Urgent

PR got merged.

the culprit seems to be in particular "hpc" test scenarios

Down to 85 scheduled hpc scenarios right now (I don't know how to link a web UI query with the same meaning).

The number has gone down steadily without further action from my end besides monitoring it.

Unpaused. I see no reason for it to be paused currently.

No issues with hpc tests currently, asked in #eng-testing concerning the 3 🥧️ tests currently stuck because the machine is offline, which is unrelated to this ticket.

the alert from https://stats.openqa-monitor.qa.suse.de/d/7W06NBWGk/job-age?tab=alert&viewPanel=5&orgId=1 just again triggered today in the morning and the graph does not look like it's good so a problem still persists.

The alert was fine when I resolved. See my comment with regard to the jobs that weren't getting picked up.
