Description

Observation

openQA test in scenario sle-15-SP6-BCI-Updates-s390x-golang_stable_on_SLES_15-SP4_podman@s390x-kvm run into MAX_JOB_TIME exceeded in
bootloader_zkvm

This was brought up in Slack #eng-testing by @MDoucha in https://suse.slack.com/archives/C02CANHLANP/p1737624344362149

Reproducible

Seems to fail consistently looking at worker history like
https://openqa.suse.de/admin/workers/2660

Expected result

Last good: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/16506528 from 2025-01-20 09:14:53Z

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: Clear error output well before MAX_JOB_TIME about the actual cause
  • AC2: Consistently stable tests again on s390x-kvm within the OSD infrastructure

Suggestions

  • Try to reproduce manually or using developer mode
  • Trigger investigation jobs with openqa-investigate to bisect between impact of product, tests, infrastructure
  • Gather statistics, e.g. using openqa-clone-job --repeat
  • Ensure that the error output is clear and helps to distinguish between test issues and infrastructure issues
  • Fix the actual underlying problem

Further details

Always latest result in this scenario: latest

While this is a test on OSD so far it looks like a generic openQA s390x problem so not assigning with tag "infra"
