Reacted by Richard LauAnd today it looks like test-equinix-ubuntu2004_docker-arm64-2 is down 😞. Logged into the out-of-band console and it was on the UEFI CLI. Typed
exitat the prompt and then selectedGNU/Linuxat the GRUB menu and the machine booted.- changed the title
[-]Identify why ubuntu2004_docker-arm64-1 is restarting and not booting properly[/-][+]Identify why Ampere altras are restarting and not booting properly[/+]on Apr 14, 2022 Looks like test-equinix-ubuntu2004_docker-arm64-2 is down again. It was stuck on the UEFI CLI again -- I've exited it and it's booting.
And again test-equinix-ubuntu2004_docker-arm64-2 had restarted and was stuck on the UEFI CLI.
test-equinix-ubuntu2004_docker-arm64-2 had restarted again and was stuck on the UEFI CLI. Logged into to the OOB console and exited the CLI.
Noticed the containers on test-equinix-ubuntu2004_docker-arm64-2 are all down again. Logged into the OOB console and exited the UEFI CLI again.
Containers on test-equinix-ubuntu2004_docker-arm64-2 are all offline again.
(Is it too optimistic to hope the planned maintenance makes a difference? 🙂)

I suspect so ;-)
I brought it back online earlier today and will contact WorksOnArm regarding the failures.
It seems to be throwing a few of these before it dies, although it manages to recover from quite a lot of them too:

test-equinix-ubuntu2004-arm64-1 had rebooted/was stuck again today 😞. I've recovered it.
Have taken the second centos7 container offline
@sxa FYI I've brought back the second container to help process the job queue.
test-equinix-ubuntu2004-arm64-1 was stuck again and has now been recovered.
Looks like all the containers on test-equinix-ubuntu2004-arm64-1 are offline again. I'm not sure for how long as there's no build history for any of them (we delete old build history, but I forget how far back the cut off is).
I'm in a meeting now, but I'll look at the host after it -- I suspect the host is stuck on the UEFI boot prompt again..

I suspect the host is stuck on the UEFI boot prompt again..It was. I've logged into the out of band console and exited the UEFI prompt. Host is back online and the containers are processing jobs.
This issue is stale because it has been open many days with no activity. It will be closed soon unless the stale label is removed or a comment is made.
Interesting - I thought we had that applied previously on the machines - @richardlau how confident are you that we're ok with this on all the systems now? Wer had two issues - the fact it was falling over on its own and the fact that it didn't come back up (which sounds like it's what's resolved on
-3)Re. "didn't come back up" we had two issues:
- Machine rebooted into UEFI prompt. No idea what was causing this, but I don't believe we've hit this for a while. (If Identify why Ampere altras are restarting and not booting properly #2894 (comment) was the last case then almost a year.)
- Machine rebooted into grub prompt. This is fixed by applying https://gist.github.com/vielmetti/dafb5128ef7535c218f6d963c5bc624e#prevention-of-boot-failures which I believe has been done to both machines.
I don't think we ever worked out why the machines restarted themselves in the first place.
Hmmm ok if it's been about a year sine we last had an unexplained reboot then I think I'm ok with closing this and we can re-open if required. Hadn't realised it had been so long :-)

This has happened multiple times recently. For some reason it's restarting itself and not coming back. We need to identify why it's rebooting (Error condition, patching, or something else) and then see why it's not coming back (Separate test - perhaps try rebooting in an idle time and see if it comes back)
Current recovery process it to connect to the out-of-band console (details in the Equinix UI) and
exitfrom theShell>prompt.
