cmssw: wf 8.0 failing in all Jenkins tests

I understand that this is a long standing issue, and I’m wondering how it should be resolved. I cannot reproduce the problem in local testing

cmsrel CMSSW_12_1_X_2021-08-13-1700
cd CMSSW_12_1_X_2021-08-13-1700/src/
cmsenv
runTheMatrix.py -l 8.0 -j 8

leads to 1 1 1 1 1 tests passed, 0 0 0 0 0 failed

Should we maybe just remove this from the Jenkins tests? It seems to be a BeamHalo run1_mc cosmics workflow.

About this issue

Its typically straightforward to protect against generating nans… what’s the code that is doing this?

Just to clarify, the “failure” in PR tests

is in the DQM output comparisons, while the runTheMatrix output

1 1 1 1 1 tests passed, 0 0 0 0 0 failed

checks only if the workflow technically runs or not.
