coordination #99183: [epic] Upgrade all our infrastructure, e.g. o3+osd workers+webui, to openSUSE Leap 15.3

Upgrade osd workers and openqa-monitor to openSUSE Leap 15.3 size:M

Description

Motivation

  • Need to upgrade workers before EOL of Leap 15.2 and have a consistent environment

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: all osd worker machines run a clean upgraded openSUSE Leap 15.3 (no failed systemd services, no left over .rpm-new files, etc.)
  • AC2: openqa-monitor runs openSUSE Leap 15.3

Suggestions

Further details

  • Don't worry, everything can be repaired :) If by any chance the worker gets misconfigured there are btrfs snapshots to recover, the IPMI Serial-over-LAN, a reinstall is possible and not hard, there is no important data on the host (it's only an openQA worker) and there are also other machines that can jobs while one host might be down for a little bit longer. And okurz can hold your hand :)

  • for reference the upgrade to openSUSE Leap 15.1 was described #55607

On o3 we've noticed problems (see #99189#note-15 and subsequent comments), so I suppose it makes sense to add a lock before upgrading:

zypper al qemu-ovmf-x86_64

A lock for qemu-seabios shouldn't be necessary (as of https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/pull/1838).

Since Moritz isn't available atm and we'd really benefit from the upgrades (e.g. swtpm deps) I'm going ahead now. I'll try and upgrade through salt instead of shells on the workers as suggested in the daily.

Actions #11

Updated by livdywan almost 3 years ago

The following commands can be run via salt i.e. sudo salt -C 'G@roles:worker' cmd.run '...' where ... is the command to execute on the machine:

  • To confirm which workers still need upgrading: grep VERSION=\"15.2 /etc/os-release || true
  • To download packages: zypper --releasever=15.3 ref && zypper --releasever=15.3 -n dup --allow-vendor-change --download-only
  • To perform the upgrade zypper --no-refresh --releasever=15.3 -n dup --allow-vendor-change --auto-agree-with-licenses --replacefiles

To start with I'm only preparing the upgrade, which shouldn't cause much trouble

(Edit: Updated above commands after the fact in case they're copied and re-used in the future, but also mentioned below)

Much quicker than I thought. Since only 58 out of 248 are working I decided to go for it.

It looks like openqaworker3 remained unaffected (is still on Leap 15.2).

Note that #104016 was simply caused by a missing reboot. It would make sense to reboot the machines shortly after doing the upgrade.

Ack. I was apparently mistaken that the workers would reboot daily anyway, that's why I thought I could avoid an extra reboot

Actions #18

Updated by livdywan almost 3 years ago

As suggested by @mkittler I'm now using sudo salt -C 'G@roles:worker' cmd.run 'needs-restarting --reboothint' to check if any machines still needed a reboot (and unlike sudo rebootmgrctl status it doesn't require priviledge escalation, and doesn't need me to check the running kernel)

So next step checking the remaining workers which show up as Reboot is suggested.

There were issues with 3 workers that I was still investigating (because, well, in alot of output it wasn't immediately clear) will update comment from notes in a minute

openqaworker-arm-1.suse.de

Rebooted twice since it was still flagged as Reboot is suggested

openqaworker-arm-2.suse.de

Rebooted, and now looking to run new packages

openqaworker3.suse.de

I couldn't identify any issues and solely re-ran dup and rebooted 🤷️

According to salt the machine is still running 15.2 despite my having completed the upgrade and ssh is unresponsive 🧐️

sudo salt -C 'G@roles:worker' cmd.run 'systemctl is-active --quiet sshd || systemctl restart sshd || systemctl status sshd'
Dec 17 13:49:22 openqaworker3 sshd-gen-keys-start[7203]: /usr/sbin/sshd-gen-keys-start: line 7: ssh-keygen: command not found

sudo salt -C 'G@roles:worker' cmd.run 'systemctl is-active --quiet sshd || zypper in -n openssh-common'
No update candidate for 'openssh-common-8.4p1-3.3.1.x86_64'. The highest available version is already installed.

So somehow ssh-keygen is unaccounted for 🤔️

Apparently we had inconsistencies because all repos weren't auto-refreshing: https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/-/merge_requests/631

malbec.arch.suse.de
grenache-1.qa.suse.de

Rebooted, and now looking to run new packages

grenache also needed a little kick in the vine:

> systemctl --failed
os-autoinst-openvswitch.service loaded failed failed os-autoinst openvswitch helper
> sudo systemctl restart os-autoinst-openvswitch.service
  • Should document in the wiki to check if zypper reports any orphans after upgrades (#104142) i.e. zypper packages --orphaned
  • Consider re-installing via salt, after dup&other clean-ups i.e. salt state-apply so that we're in a state with all required packages but w/o manually installed or left-over packages that aren't in salt
  • Use -q to avoid getting lost in logs -q is much too quiet 🤐️
  • Perform the upgrade with --no-refresh to avoid race conditions after prior package refresh and download
  • I didn't cover any inactive machines here
Actions #21

Updated by okurz almost 3 years ago

On openqaworker3 a problem was that zypper dup did not want to follow through originally so something was missed and we ended up with non-operative sshd after reboot.

The proper fix is in https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/-/merge_requests/631 to make the SUSE_CA repo consistently auto-refresh, same as others.

We started with looking into rpm files and did salt '*' cmd.run 'test -e /etc/salt/minion.rpmnew && mv /etc/salt/minion{,.bak} && mv /etc/salt/minion{.rpmnew,}' && salt '*' state.sls_id /etc/salt/minion salt.minion

We seem to have extra packages on openqaworker3:

That last message doesn't seem to contradict the fact that the packages are gone 🤓️

All workers seem to be in a consistent state, so I would consider this done and maybe just leave this ticket as a reference w/o trying to generelize it for now (and consider that next time)

A related issue that came up recently: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1192126

I added more steps and hints to the upgrade section on our wiki with https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqav3/wiki/Wiki/diff?utf8=%E2%9C%93&version=138&version_from=137&commit=View+differences . This should suffice then.

I resolved #104142 so we can resolve this one as well now.
