/assign to investigate. are the expansion test flakes supposed to be fixed?
It appears as though some of the failures are also due to tests owned by sig-scheduling: /sig scheduling
The only failures I see in CSI+expansion is from gce-pd CSI driver. We need to fix for that.
We should move "SchedulerPredicates [Serial] validates MaxPods limit number of pods that are allowed to run [Slow]" out of e2e tests. It relies on a particular state of the cluster before the test start that is hard to validate. It should be more than enough to have an integration test for this, even a unit test (which we already hav ) should be fine .
will you be willing to work on that? it's flaking A LOT right now, definitely more than 50%
I created , should be addressed soon.
There are several tests flaky. Summarize them as below expansion test See comments from and a few other tests The cause of test failure is node is OutOfPod resource. See one of the log message {kubelet test- This is due to the SchedulerPredicates test mentioned above , which creates more than 100 Pods at the same time. We need to move this test out to make sure other tests have enough resources.
I assume this was not cherry-picked to 1.17, right?
/reopen this is still an issue on 1.17. we should probably consider cherry-picking as this is creating a lot of noise in the dashboards

/kind flake
correct, it was not cherry-picked to 1.17.

/assign Based on 's analysis earlier, the test failures are due to a scheduler test taking up too many resources. I believe that scheduler test fix needs to be cherry-picked. Assigning to sig-scheduler to track it. /remove-sig storage

/unassign /assign Looks like the cherry pick did not cause this to bounce back. Any ideas why that would be? cc
/milestone v1.18
Is this failure specifically for 1.17 (because we only cherry picked into 1.18)?
Looks like the 1.17 serial test grid is looking fine?

(slightly flaky)
Can we also use a new bug to track the quay related failures which are unrelated to the original issue?
This job is now green
