action #12276

## observation https://openqa.suse.de/tests/440019/modules/bootloader_s390/steps/2 ## steps to reproduce many zVM-s390 jobs fail in `bootloader_s390` for this reason. Reproduce locally by repeatedly calling a simple test which is executing bootloader_s390 until the error is observed. ## problem H1. REJECTED: The timeout of 20 seconds is below the timeout for switching pages in s3270 which defaults to 30 seconds causing the text to be not displayed on the current page but only on the next one which is not visible --> okurz increased timeout to 60 seconds and let it run but it failed nevertheless, e.g. see http://lord.arch/tests/890 H2. We broke expect_s3270 (regression) ## suggestion * first: catch this error on a higher level within tests and retry the whole s3270 stuff from the test level * second: fix it for good in expect_s3270 ## further details what was confusing me at first is that if a test dies, the backtrace is not recorded in autoinst-log.txt, only in the text report shown in the UI. https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/pull/513 is trying to improve this again. ## workaround retrigger job
