Observation¶

https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/-/jobs/1792173#L85 shows a failed telegraf check:

Error running agent: Error loading config file /etc/telegraf/telegraf.d/slo.conf: plugin inputs.exec: line 1: configuration specified the fields ["environment"], but they weren't used

This is due to telegraf 1.22 not supporting the option. Current telegraf version is 1.26. Erroneously the host monitor.qa.suse.de downgraded the telegraf package today due to journalctl -u auto-upgrade --since=today:

The problem is Skipping repository 'Update repository of openSUSE Backports' because of the above error. meaning that we continue the upgrade despite an error to refresh a repo causing the downgrade.

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: Upgrade is only conducted when all configured repositories can be successfully refreshed
• AC2: We are alerted if the situation of broken repos persists

Suggestions¶

• Research how to only continue with the upgrade after the refresh was successful and abort otherwise

Workaround¶

Apply the upgrade manually when this happens.
