Description

Observation

openQA test in scenario sle-15-SP1-Installer-DVD-ppc64le-ha_beta_node02@ppc64le fails in
consoletest_setup

Reproducible

Fails since (at least) Build 58.1

Expected result

Last good: (unknown) (or more recent)

Further details

Always latest result in this scenario: latest

The test fails because there is no network on the VM. IP address should be set by the DHCP server running on the support-server (this test in that case: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/2263783).
But sporadically the IP address is not set (in fact I more often have no IP than one...). This happens on all MM ppc64le workers (malbec and QA-Power8-5-kvm).
Looks like ppc64le specific, as I have no problem with MM jobs on x86_64 and aarch64.

@szarate should we really keep this ticket on the backlog of QSF-u? I see this highly unrelated

@okurz I want to at least give it a look :) Whether we do it or not, it's another story

@ldevulder, seems this is something "ha" specific?

MM specific more (network issue before HA stack), but as on ppc64le only HA uses MM we can say HA specific :)
As I don't have any IP address it may be an issue with the DHCP server in the supportserver or a configuration issue on the worker? But as it works sometimes I think it's more an issue on the worker like we have/had sometimes also on other arch (like aarch64 for example during SLE15 BV).

After investigation I found that GRE tunnel was not started on malbec, so jobs in the same group but running on different workers were not able to connect to each others.

A reboot of malbec is planned to resolve this.
