Hi Varsha,

If you run teuthology manually (i.e. "teuthology ..." instead
of "teuthology-suite ..."), once it gets to the interactive task,
it will stop and you will be presented with a python-like prompt,
allowing you to inspect teuthology state.  That prompt is rarely
useful, but because teuthology stops at that point, you can ssh
and safely poke around on the nodes.

interactive-on-error is not a task.  It's a key, like email or
verbose.  If set, teuthology will go interactive if a task exits
with error, allowing you to poke around before the task stack is
unwound.  Again, teuthology must be run manually for it to work.


Thanks Ilya, I will try running teuthology manually and check it.
