Description
Observation¶
Seems like since today we have multiple worker instances with the same instance number causing havoc.
From o3:
$ for i in aarch64 openqaworker1 openqaworker4 openqaworker7 power8 imagetester rebel; do echo $i && ssh root@$i "ps aux|grep 'script/worker'|sort -k14"; done

on osd salt -l error --no-color -C 'G@roles:worker' --state-output=changes cmd.run "ps aux|grep script/worker|sort -k 14" from osd reveals more, e.g. on openqaworker8.
systemctl status openqa-worker@1 reveals that the duplicate "instance 1" is tracked within the same systemd service, at least:

Something has started the new process, probably some salt deployment but the old process seems to have been not properly stopped.
A journal covering the restart of openQA worker instance service and the PIDs in question is added.

Which place in the log do you mean exactly?
- Subject changed from Duplicate worker instances competing to Set `$0` for upload process to something more explicit (was: Duplicate worker instances competing)
- Category changed from Regressions/Crashes to Feature requests
- Priority changed from Urgent to Low
mkittler, sebastianriedel and me looked into the log files and we found nothing that could explain network problems in multi-machine tests. Everything seems to be in order. Multiple worker instances would try to acquire the same lock before doing anything with qemu that then tries to acquire network. What is visible in the process tree are the upload processes.
- Idea for improvement: Set
$0 for upload process to something more explicit
The original output from dzedro was confusing me because he didn't use the "-f" parameter for ps so it looked like these "duplicate processes" are parallel when in reality one is a subprocess of the other, just with the same name. This also looks a bit weird in systemctl status as it can also show two processes with exactly same cmd line next to each other on the same level.
- Target version set to future
