action #124961
closedopenQA restarts user_cancelled jobs with RETRY=N (N>0) size:M
Description
Observation¶
When cancelling a job with RETRY=1
(or any number larger than 0), openQA automatically restarts the job. This is expected for any failed state, but not for cancellation
Acceptance criteria¶
- AC1*: Jobs cancelled by users are not restarted automatically (even when
RETRY
is used). What happens to other cancelled jobs may still remain undefined/suboptimal.
Out of scope¶
- Fixing the mess you can see in #110458
Steps to reproduce¶
- Create job with
RETRY=1
- Cancel the job
Impact / problem¶
When cancelling jobs with RETRY
, we need to cancel N jobs.

Thank you for reporting this, Felix!
I could be wrong, but I would take this to be a regression. And even if it's not, it would be an issue whenever RETRY is being used. And since we encourage RETRY to be used in many cases, I think this is something we should really look into. And maybe not even that difficult to fix.
