Thanks for the information. I'll dig into this a bit. Regarding restarting a single worker that has become discarded, is there a way to do this? Thanks. Andy On Thu, Aug 20, 2015 at 4:48 AM, Michael Schroeder wrote:

build discarded... umount: /var/cache/obs/worker/root_1: not mounted umount tmpfs failed: No such file or directory could not kill build in /var/cache/obs/worker/root_1/root

That's because there's a 'die("umount tmpfs failed")' statement in cleanup_job(). Because of the die, the state is never set to 'idle' again.

I think the correct fix is to not call umount if tmpfs is not mounted anymore/yet.

Cheers, Michael.

If the single worker is run in screen, you should be able to ^C the worker and then "resurrect" the window by pressing 'n'.

I just gave this a shot but I must be doing something wrong. I switched to the screen window of the discarded worker and hit ^C, which caused the worker to fully exit and closed that screen window completely. Pressing 'n' from any other screen window simply types the letter 'n', as you'd expect, and meta-n of course just cycles to the next window. Do I misunderstand? Thanks.

You can resurrect it by changing directory to /var/run/obs/worker/boot, then finding the command line in screenrc which you run here in the shell prefixed with "screen -X" (which sends the command to the running screen instance).
