[20/03/2020 11:39:23] <DimStar> Martchus_: any idea what's up here? https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/overview?arch=&machine=&modules=&todo=1&distri=microos&distri=opensuse&version=Tumbleweed&build=20200318&groupid=1# ?

[20/03/2020 11:53:02] <DimStar> okurz: the nvme issues we had last time around was ow4, right?
On w1 in system journal:
nvme nvme0: Abort status: 0x0
Updated by okurz over 4 years ago
According to journalctl | grep 'kernel: nvme nvme0: Abort status: 0x0'
the first error appeared already on
Mar 18 16:18:20 openqaworker1 kernel: nvme nvme0: Abort status: 0x0
I can try to reformat the filesystem but I guess the device is broken. Maybe after all (thinking again) ext2 is not a good choice?
Updated by okurz over 4 years ago
Recreating the RAID and creating a filesystem can reproduce the problem on nvme0

I had to reboot w1 as it's I/O stuck. I could reproduce the NVMe problems when recreating the RAID0 used for /var/lib/openqa and trying to create a new filesystem on it. After reboot I will try to create a RAID0 from just the single NVMe1 device and bring up limited openqa worker instances which are also MM capable. On second priority I will add multi-machine support to w4 and w7, see #64700 , which I plan to do only later to not disrupt already currently running jobs not to end up with no workers running at all due to misconfiguration.
w1 back up with 12 worker instances, single NVMe.

ticket was resolved as nicksinger stated that he will order a replacement so assigning ticket to him.
Reducing from "Urgent" to "High" as the machine was brought back up by me with the single NVMe present.
@nicksinger ETA?

"REQ_402391: Order request: NVMe replacement for openqaworker1 and openqaworker7" is in "FULFILLMENT QUEUE" since 25/03/2020 09:57:39 AM. I've added a "note" asking if and how I can speed things up.

fine. It's actually not that urgent as we can live with a single NVMe for some time, just wanted to know what we can expect. So I am setting this to "Blocked" with a due date for you then accordingly.
Updated by nicksinger over 4 years ago
Since no progress is visible in the RIO ticket I escalated to Ralf.
Updated by okurz over 4 years ago
What's the result of the escalation after 2 months? You should also have received reminder emails about this ticket after the due date has passed. I am coming back to this topic because fvogt found the issue "again" in logs.

@nsinger are you receiving reminders about this ticket like twice a week? I guess you can also use the NVMe from runger here
Updated by nicksinger over 4 years ago
Update: we have two of these adapters and one m2 SSD/NVMe. Gerhard now took one of these adapters, will plug in the m2 and try to build it in either openqaworker1 or openqaworker7. Once we have feedback if the adapters fit the server chassis I will order a second m2 (apparently the second one never arrived).

The NVMe was build into the machine today. You can check what block device is associated to the right disk by comparing the IDs of lspci
with the reported paths from udev:
openqaworker1:~ # lspci | grep Non-Volatile
81:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Intel Corporation PCIe Data Center SSD (rev 01)
82:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Intel Corporation PCIe Data Center SSD (rev 01)
83:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Intel Corporation SSD 660P Series (rev 03) #<- this is the new one
openqaworker1:~ # udevadm info -q all -n /dev/nvme2
P: /devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:02.0/0000:83:00.0/nvme/nvme2
N: nvme2
E: DEVNAME=/dev/nvme2
E: DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:02.0/0000:83:00.0/nvme/nvme2 #<- "83:00.0" from lspci shows that this NVMe is available at /dev/nvme2
E: MAJOR=245
E: MINOR=2
E: SUBSYSTEM=nvme
Updated by okurz about 4 years ago
ok but now we have the unused nvme0 still in the system. Can you rip it out and discard it? Then we can rely on the semi-automatic provisioning of the device same as for other workers. As an alternative we can manually add the second NVMe to the RAID0, forget that nmve0 is faulty, and eventually someone runs into the same problem again with nvme0 ;)

@nicksinger can you please describe what is the current state for this ticket, what are your plans, suggestions, things to do or things to wait for?

the SSD is built in now. What's left is making use of it and pulling out the old one. As we have two "old" ones in there we need some kind of coordination with Infra when they pull it so see if it's the right one

Well, lsblk -o NAME,MODEL,SERIAL
tells me:
NAME MODEL SERIAL
sda HGST HTE721010A9
├─sda1
├─sda2
└─sda3
└─md1
nvme2n1 INTEL SSDPEKNW010T8 BTNH022600SN1P0B
nvme1n1 INTEL SSDPE2ME400G4 CVMD4352001W400FGN
└─md127
nvme0n1 INTEL SSDPE2ME400G4 CVMD4352007S400FGN
so can you ask your Infra contact person like gschlotter to rip out the device with serial id CVMD4352007S400FGN whenever the machine is not fully utilized? You could either reopen https://infra.nue.suse.com/SelfService/Display.html?id=176945 or create a new ticket.

I doubt infra can tell the tray if you give them a serial number. I know some servers can blink a light at a specific tray slot but I don't know if this is supported here. After all it should definitely be combined with the efforts to remove the broken disk from worker7 (see https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/49694).

fine. But I would like to have this handled still with high prio. I will create corresponding infra tickets then.

ticket resolved, machine was powered on but not coming up properly, reported by fvogt. Could not easily recover myself due to problem with ipmitool but version of ipmitool from "wotan" was ok. fvogt fixed it with https://paste.opensuse.org/view/raw/34762541 , i.e.:
Issue:
error: symbol `grub_file_filters' not found.
grub rescue>
-> Mismatch of installed core.img and modules
Idea:
In the rescue shell, set the prefix to the location of modules from an older snapshot
Procedure:
set btrfs_relative_path=n
ls (mduuid/958978b17edb5f3df27f5be3c639f19b)/@/.snapshots/
-> oldest is 755/
set btrfs_subvol=/@/.snapshots/755/snapshot
set btrfs_relative_path=y
set prefix=/usr/share/grub2/
insmod normal
normal
configfile /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
-> System boots
system is up, we need to update the RAID config but the system is currently working hard on a new Tumbleweed snapshot. I can also do that at a different time :) What we can do What I did then:
mdadm --stop /dev/md/openqa
mdadm --create /dev/md/openqa --level=0 --force --raid-devices=2 --run /dev/nvme?n1
mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm.conf
vim /etc/mdadm.conf
mkfs.ext2 /dev/md/openqa
mkdir -p /var/lib/openqa/{pool,cache,share} && /usr/bin/chown _openqa-worker:root /var/lib/openqa/cache /var/lib/openqa/pool /var/lib/openqa/share
systemctl start openqa-worker-cacheservice openqa-worker-cacheservice-minion openqa-worker.target
systemctl unmask openqa-worker@{13..20} && systemctl enable --now openqa-worker@{13..20}
including enabling more worker instances as we have now 1.3TB free pool space and also that many worker instances on openqaworker4.
Next thing I checked for the CACHELIMIT settings and increasing here as well:
> for i in aarch64 openqaworker1 openqaworker4 openqaworker7 power8 imagetester rebel; do echo $i && ssh root@$i "grep -B 2 CACHELIMIT /etc/openqa/workers.ini" ; done

Have increased cache limit to 400GB, commented in /etc/openqa/workers.ini. Also informed common users in irc://chat.freenode.net/opensuse-factory and will monitor.

there seemed to be one problem that I have enabled more worker instances but they did not have a tap device assigned. fvogt has resolved that in another ticket with changing /etc/openqa/workers.ini . Currently I see /dev/md127 1.3T 526G 715G 43% /var/lib/openqa
and load average: 9.74, 12.20, 12.90
. I think everything is ok here.
