to catch up the case of grub rescue mode is not a problem:
https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/16120
but re-trying reset lpar netboot still not really working, so I think the root issue is at setup/allocation of pvm.
If I triggered 10 job, all worked fine without any issue, but if I triggered more than 20 jobs, the sporadic issue happens.
if issue like loading initrd gets error, this cannot be resolved by re-try.

One minor comment, can we consider to renew the NBP file on dhcp/install server? [it is built on Sep/2020]
