Description

Observation

When this type of failure happens we cannot always report a bug here as we may have no clue at all what is going on, example here: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/4863653#.

There are four problems:

1 - We do not wait long enough for the emergency shell
2 - It is sporadic. From my observations, happens once every 15 runs approximately, so it's really hard to reproduce manually
3 - If we try to increase the time needed, a I did here: http://waaa-amazing.suse.cz/tests/13313#step/first_boot/2 then the password does not get entered, or at least not reliably.
4 - We should try to get more logs than what is currently collected, to facilitate the bug report.

openQA test in scenario sle-15-SP3-Online-x86_64-RAID0@64bit fails in
first_boot

Acceptance criteria

  1. Logging to emergency shell works stably
  2. Redirect basic logs to serial port, like dmesg, journalctl, fstab, rdosreport, etc.

  • Priority changed from Urgent to High

Changed description and decreased severity as in the case I reported in initially I could find a bit of useful logs, so I managed to report a bug: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1178515. Probably the same issue as with raid0 test suite, as this also creates a raid0.
In he raid0 test suite's failure there is no useful log at all.
