#### Motivation 
 These are the two areas requested by upper management to take a look: 

 _Soft failures_ : Soft failures: 
  - Reduce the ambiguity of this kind of failures ensuring we are not hiding any potential problem and cleanup is provided in a regular basis. 

   - Recommended steps: 
     - Understand the bugs, reproduce them and contact stakeholders. 
     - Decide what to do with the bug, valid softfailure, remove it due it will not be fixed, update bug reference. 
     - Care about reopening the bug for product in general maintenance or LTSS if the soft-failure occurred in a product that now doesn't meet those criteria or file a new bug if it happens in the new product under development._ 

 **Avoid to just confirm that the problem is reproducible and focus more on taking some actions** , contacting stakeholders, creating new bugs and making some noise, and if nothing really works, last resource, it is to not test that test condition or workaround it without a soft-failure. 

 _Change Change of focus at company level about some products_: products: 
  - SLED 
  - HPC 

 #### Acceptance criteria 
 **AC1**: Tackle soft failures to reduce the ambiguity/risk 
 **AC2**: Clean-up test coverage regarding product not on focus anymore 

 #### Additional information 
 - Bugs found during develpment of product that are now in maintenance might be ignored and we need to reopen it and link original bug. 
 - Create a subtask in this epic for tackling each individual soft-failures or related clusters of them. 
 - Check also in development job groups.
