16:03:36 <bauzas> #info Add yourself in the team bug roster if you want to help https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/nova-bug-triage-roster 16:03:48 <elodilles> maybe one bug 16:03:52 <elodilles> (or two) 16:04:14 <Uggla> */ 16:04:19 <elodilles> related to the well-know volume timeout failure 16:04:33 <elodilles> a new general bug was open: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1992328 16:04:52 <elodilles> i know that there are a ton of similar bugs already 16:05:04 <elodilles> some are more specific and some are general 16:05:18 <bauzas> elodilles: do you want to close it as a duplicate ? 16:05:34 <elodilles> if we have the exact same somewhere, then we could 16:05:44 <elodilles> otherwise we can keep it open... 16:06:11 <elodilles> also saw that maybe somewhat coupled with this 30 days old bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1989232 16:06:30 <elodilles> i mean this is also opened around the same issue 16:07:50 <elodilles> otherwise i didn't have time to go deep into them 16:08:05 <bauzas> well, I dunno 16:08:09 <elodilles> so any idea about what to do with these bugs are welcome 16:08:38 <gibi> these need to be trobule shooted to find the root cause 16:08:47 <gibi> but I don't have time for that 16:09:05 <gibi> timeout is a the visible fault but there is deeper reasons why that happnes 16:09:28 <bauzas> ok, so let's continue to have this bug report then 16:09:43 <bauzas> and if someone wants to fix it, he/she could duplicate it if needed 16:09:57 <elodilles> ack 16:10:59 <bauzas> ok, any other bug report to look at ? 16:11:11 <elodilles> nothing else from me 16:12:52 <bauzas> ok, continuing then 16:13:09 <bauzas> gibi: can you be the bug baton for next week ? 16:13:15 <gibi> lets see 16:13:17 <bauzas> even if next week it will be the PTG ?

16:16:33 <bauzas> yes 16:17:53 <bauzas> I guess the owner of the job was adalee, right?. 16:18:40 <bauzas> this is bizarre, I don't see where the job run is timing out 16:20:01 <sean-k-mooney> well the default timeout i think is 2 hours 16:20:14 <sean-k-mooney> so it might just need a little longer sicne the fips job does a reboot 16:20:24 <bauzas> yeah but the job seems to have done 16:20:30 <bauzas> be* done 16:20:38 <bauzas> anyway, nothing urgent 16:20:53 <bauzas> this is just the fact we can't get the result 16:21:00 <bauzas> even if it looks tempest works fine 16:21:11 <sean-k-mooney> its posible it has addtional test in a post playbook 16:21:24 <bauzas> I don't know who wrote the job 16:21:34 <bauzas> but I'll try to find it 16:21:46 <bauzas> should be easy to find 16:22:24 <clarkb> https://zuul.openstack.org/build/5f6e6a2f65ee4a5e90754d07142fab9f/log/job-output.txt#23945-23946 shows where it is timing out 16:23:24 <bauzas> found who added it https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/nova/+/831844 16:23:54 <bauzas> thanks clarkb, will look 16:24:31 <sean-k-mooney> ok its tempest full 16:24:47 <sean-k-mooney> so its two tempest runs 16:25:05 <bauzas> | RUN END RESULT_TIMED_OUT: [untrusted : opendev.org/openstack/tempest/playbooks/devstack-tempest.yaml@master] 16:25:09 <sean-k-mooney> the first one completed but the second that runs the slow test and senarior tests timed out 16:25:10 <bauzas> hmpf 16:25:24 <bauzas> yup 16:25:45 <sean-k-mooney> so ya it just need anther say 30 mins added to the tiemout to be safe 16:26:05 <sean-k-mooney> it also could have just been a slow node 16:26:10 <clarkb> and maybe double check logs to see that something didn't get stuck there due to fips 16:26:19 <clarkb> there is a bit of a time delta between the timeout and tempest reporting anything 16:26:38 <clarkb> oh its only 15 seconds nevermind 16:26:42 <sean-k-mooney> yep 16:26:47 <sean-k-mooney> there isnt really a break in the logs 16:26:53 <clarkb> I mathed wrong the first time 16:27:08 <bauzas> yes, this is just a slow test 16:27:42 <bauzas> but should we modify the timeout for that job to be larger ? 16:27:46 <sean-k-mooney> i dont know how much time the reboot adds for fips but 2 hours is proably borderlien 16:28:01 <bauzas> we can DNM this at least 16:28:16 <bauzas> and verify if adding more timeout time helps 16:28:17 <sean-k-mooney> i would add 30mins and monitor it and see roughly how long it takes over the next few weeks 16:28:23 <bauzas> right 16:28:46 <bauzas> I can propose a patch 16:28:51 <sean-k-mooney> ack 16:29:21 <bauzas> #action bauzas to add a 30min more timeout for the centos9-fips periodic job so we will see whether it fixes the timeout 16:29:27 <bauzas> moving on 16:29:38 <bauzas> #info Please look at the gate failures and file a bug report with the gate-failure tag. 16:29:51 <sean-k-mooney> bauzas: its here https://opendev.org/openstack/tempest/src/branch/master/zuul.d/integrated-gate.yaml#L325 just incase your wondering where to do that 16:31:19 <bauzas> ack, thanks but I found it 16:31:40 <bauzas> hence the DNM patch in nova 16:31:51 <bauzas> to test it 16:32:07 <bauzas> with experimental 16:32:10 <bauzas> anyway 16:32:36 <bauzas> nothing to tell more about blind rechecks, I haven't looked at the numbers 16:32:38 <bauzas> moving on 16:32:48 <bauzas> #info STOP DOING BLIND RECHECKS aka.
