Observation¶

See https://stats.openqa-monitor.qa.suse.de/d/KToPYLEWz/failed-systemd-services?orgId=1&from=1676150994873&to=1676257956411 for the time frame. (It also shows some mount units but they were only failing very shortly.)

This is the log of logratate-openqa on OSD:

The log for logrotate on the Pi is unfortunately empty. So there's likely not much we can do about the Pi at this point.

I haven't paused the alerts. Let's see whether this is happening again.

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: The pi worker no longer triggers the failed systemd services alert
• AC2: OSD no longer triggers the failed systemd services alert

Note that the issue on OSD was a one-time issue and is at this point no concern anymore. It happened again on OSD as well:

Suggestions¶

• Look into log files on osd for details (as above)
• Check what happens if logrotate is called manually. It's rather safe to call logrotate again but might trigger the above
• Likely an unclean shutdown caused this. Try to trigger manually.
• Ask @dheidler to fix the Pi-worker
