Subject: Re: Intermittent Jenkins crashes
Let's try to see if it's a problem that only affects one
slave, one
python version, one distribution or fails anywhere. If it only affects
one slave, we might just reprovision it (the one you pointed out is a
vm). If it's related to a package version we can try to upgrade it, or
downgrade it, or fix it (in the best case).
If it's anything else it will be more complicated to fix, and we will
have to look deeper (try to reproduce manually, add traces, maybe as
you say it's an issue on the RAM, but being a vm, we might expect it
failing also on the host).
I started running it only on f19 slaves, to see if it happens, I'll
check f20 slaves after.
Looks like I was wrong, it happens on other VMs as well, as
http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/vdsm_master_unit_tests_gerrit/8609/console
shows.
So, I think we need to get at least one of those coredumps.
I begun to enable temporarily hoping to catch one of those, but
looks like we need to cast a wider net (everything reverted as I wrote).
Please let's talk this again next week (starting 2014/02/05), I'm
available basically anytime (UTC+1).
Bests and thanks,
