The very first line of the screen session shows how the test is being run: /usr/lib/plainbox-provider-checkbox/bin/memory_stress_ng
The machine is completely unresponsive. No ssh, no ping and the console over ipmi is locked up. Hitting CTRL+C over the sol console does nothing at all. This is after leaving the test running for 18+ hours where it should only take around 1-3 hours tops to complete depending on the machine. As you can see on the same machine running the same test on 14.04, the test took about an hour to complete with no lockup at the end. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573062 Title: memory_stress_ng failing for IBM Power S812LC(TN71-BP012) for 16.04 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: memory_stress_ng, as part of server certification is failing for IBM Power S812LC(TN71-BP012) in bare metal mode. Failing in this case is defined by the test locking up the server in an unrecoverable state which only a reboot will fix. I will be attaching screen and kern logs for the failures and a successful run on 14.04 on the same server.
