Description W. Trevor King 2020-07-17 21:01:05 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1857224 +++

Description of problem:

After rebooting a node, it sometimes never transitions to the Ready state.  This may happen more frequently under load.  Typical messages are:

Jun 25 14:08:07 worker-2.ostest.test.metalkube.org podman[1424]: Error: error creating container storage: layer not known
Jun 25 14:08:07 worker-2.ostest.test.metalkube.org systemd[1]: nodeip-configuration.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=125/n/a
Jun 25 14:08:07 worker-2.ostest.test.metalkube.org systemd[1]: nodeip-configuration.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Jun 25 14:08:07 worker-2.ostest.test.metalkube.org systemd[1]: Failed to start Writes IP address configuration so that kubelet and crio services select a valid node IP.

The workaround is to ssh to the node, stop the crio and kubelet services, rm -rf /var/lib/containers, and restart crio and kubelet.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.5


How reproducible: Infrequent to frequent


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have active, running node
2. Reboot it until this happens
3.

Actual results:  Node stays not ready, with above messages


Expected results: Node reboots and becomes ready

Given that clone BZ 1857224 is CLOSED ERRATA for 4.5.3, we would normally assume that the patch has already been brought into the 4.6 nightly builds. Can someone confirm that that is the case, and maybe this BZ can be moved into ON_QA or VERIFIED?
