Description Clayton Coleman 2020-05-07 19:31:00 UTC
https://prow.svc.ci.openshift.org/view/gcs/origin-ci-test/pr-logs/pull/openshift_installer/3561/pull-ci-openshift-installer-master-e2e-azure/540

https://search.apps.build01.ci.devcluster.openshift.com/?search=NodeClockNotSynchronising&maxAge=168h&context=1&type=bug%2Bjunit&name=azure&maxMatches=5&maxBytes=20971520&groupBy=job

Across 805 runs and 80 jobs (54.29% failed), matched 35.24% of failing runs and 13.75% of jobs

[sig-instrumentation][Late] Alerts shouldn't report any alerts in firing state apart from Watchdog and AlertmanagerReceiversNotConfigured [Suite:openshift/conformance/parallel] expand_less 	1m30s
fail [github.com/openshift/origin/test/extended/util/prometheus/helpers.go:174]: Expected
    <map[string]error | len:1>: {
        "count_over_time(ALERTS{alertname!~\"Watchdog|AlertmanagerReceiversNotConfigured|KubeAPILatencyHigh\",alertstate=\"firing\",severity!=\"info\"}[2h]) >= 1": {
            s: "promQL query: count_over_time(ALERTS{alertname!~\"Watchdog|AlertmanagerReceiversNotConfigured|KubeAPILatencyHigh\",alertstate=\"firing\",severity!=\"info\"}[2h]) >= 1 had reported incorrect results:\n[{\"metric\":{\"alertname\":\"NodeClockNotSynchronising\",\"alertstate\":\"firing\",\"endpoint\":\"https\",\"instance\":\"ci-op-hy8z3bni-2dc90-xpt9z-master-0\"

Looks like in the run I linked NodeClockNotSynchronising is firing on all three nodes because node_timex_sync_status is empty.

Comment 1 Colin Walters 2020-05-07 19:45:01 UTC
This should be fixed since https://gitlab.cee.redhat.com/coreos/redhat-coreos/merge_requests/918
but rollout was stalled by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1781575

I think also we've only done the bump in 4.6 and need to backport it to 4.5.

Comment 3 Colin Walters 2020-05-15 20:22:01 UTC
Awesome!  Since then we have the same fix inbound for EC2 and GCP: https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-config/pull/393

Comment 5 Colin Walters 2020-05-19 12:34:04 UTC
We also need https://github.com/openshift/installer/pull/3613 AKA bug 1837039 for the bootimage, although I didn't think that would be critical.
It's also possible that I regressed this when generalizing it in https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-config/pull/393

I'll take some time to verify the code in the current release payload.

Comment 7 Colin Walters 2020-05-20 18:24:08 UTC
Re-marking as verified; haven't seen this in the last 12 hours, which is around when the fix merged into CI.
