## Observation
From https://suse.slack.com/archives/C02CANHLANP/p1717381703517509
> (Lili Zhao) Hi, multi machine issues found today, for example: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/14504387#step/iscsi_client/8 （ping with packet size 100 failed, problems with MTU size are expected） and https://openqa.suse.de/tests/14504397#step/suseconnect_scc/25 （curl: (7) Couldn't connect to server)
possibly related https://suse.slack.com/archives/C02CANHLANP/p1717400281975529
> (Anton Smorodskyi) when I see such error https://openqa.suse.de/tests/14492957#step/prepare_instance/27 No route to host at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26.1/Mojo/Transaction.pm line 54. I conclude that worker's network is down . Is my assumption correct ?

shows the significantly higher ratio of multi-machine test failures happening
## Acceptance criteria
* **AC1:** The original issue is understood and resolved
* **AC2:** The backend and/or test code can point better to likely causes of error
* **AC3:** The multi-machine test failure ratio on https://monitor.qa.suse.de/d/nRDab3Jiz/openqa-jobs-test is back to sane levels
* **AC4:** Similar future issues are prevented with better CI checks
