hi,
In the latest build I fired for review.gluster.com/7766
(http://build.gluster.org/job/regression/4443/console) failed because of
spurious failure. The script doesn't wait for nfs export to be available. I
fixed that, but interestingly I found quite a few scripts with same problem.
Some of the scripts are relying on 'sleep 5' which also could lead to spurious
failures if the export is not available in 5 seconds. We found that waiting for
20 seconds is better, but 'sleep 20' would unnecessarily delay the build
execution. So if you guys are going to write any scripts which has to do nfs
mounts, please do it the following way:
EXPECT_WITHIN 20 "1" is_nfs_export_available;
TEST mount -t nfs -o vers=3 $H0:/$V0 $N0;
Please review http://review.gluster.com/7773 :-)
I saw one more spurious failure in a snapshot related script
tests/bugs/bug-1090042.t on the next build fired by Niels.
Joesph (CCed) is debugging it. He agreed to reply what he finds and share it
with us so that we won't introduce similar bugs in future.
I encourage you guys to share what you fix to prevent spurious failures in
future.
Thanks
Pranith
