closedcoordination #151816: [epic] Handle openQA fixes and job group setup
[sporadic] Reboot takes too long for ppc64le
0%
Description
For some ppc tests, we experience a sporadic reboot failure on different points of the test. As the failure doesn't happen every time on the same point, it could be an infrastructure issue that might be fixed by increasing the timeout.
Failure examples:
https://openqa.suse.de/tests/13549614#next_previous
https://openqa.suse.de/tests/13554127#next_previous
Acceptance criteria¶
AC1: Check if the ppc failures can go away by increasing the reboot timeout for ppc64le.
Additional information¶
- In case the issue persists, check if it could be a bug.
- In case there are no indications of a bug, ask tools team for more information note: not sure how this two suggestions above could go, as power kvm is not officially supported and tools squad is not taking care of exotic architecture. Most likely if unstable it is better to consider disabling the scenario, we'll see...

It seems disk has some issue and kdump loaded which may caused the reboot very slow. I will run the test with the new support image to check whether the issue can be reproduced.

After some investigation on it, I think it is a gnome bug, after migration during the reboot process something wrong for gdm and caused system hang. I filed a bug for it, https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220723

It is very hard to provide logs when issue happened since system is hang and mixed root login issue. As we discussed in stand-up meeting, we will create a new ticket to run the test on textmode or reduce some modules to make the test work.
