test-osuosl-aix61-ppc64_be-2 test failures #984
Description
I took test-osuosl-aix61-ppc64_be-2 offline because it running node-test-commit-aix was a sea of red with failures on parallel/test-repl-envvars. I think this is a build thing and not a test issue. Anyone have any better information on that, though?

@gireeshpunathil once you figure out what is going on please get either @refack or @gibfahn to help make the change on the machine that was disabled/reenable.

P.S. I even rebooted, and it didn't help.

@refack I've been told its not really expected that AIX machines are rebooted often like you would with linux machines. It is the recommendation of our AIX contact that we only do it when absolutely necessary... Likely not an issue but just to ask that we don't do it too often.

One, other thing to consider is if the rest of the tests pass, and its going to take a while to figure out what the issue is with this specific test, one option is to exclude the test. Even though we have the other machine we should keep an eye on whether we end up with a big backlog because we are down to a single machine.

@gibfahn I think @gireeshpunathil may already have access to the AIX machines but if not can you facilitate that.

Ran the test manually on the machine and it passed:

Trying in the CI to see if it still fails when run that way: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-aix/10102/nodes=aix61-ppc64/console

Seems to have failed in CI. Going to kill and restart the jenkins agent in case it is related to how it was started

Passed in this run: https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit-aix/nodes=aix61-ppc64/10103/console.
My only guess may be that it might somehow be related to how the jenkins agent is started.
What I used was (and have used in the past):
And to be more precise I usually cd into etc/rc.d/rc2.d and then run sh S20jenkins start
I wonder if there is something subtly different when it gets started automatically on reboot.

Going to leave enabled. The only difference between the passing and previous failing run was me killing and restarting the agent so I'm hoping that is what caused the passing run and means the jobs will continue to pass on the machine as well.

Looking good 👍

Closing as this seems resolved.
