Volta error: Could not unpack Node

[happy-turtle]

Hello 👋 We are running Volta in a Github action runner and are experiencing frequent failures. This is getting so frequent that it requires retries every time and is not very much production ready. After a few retries it eventually runs fine though. Do you have any hints what the problem might be? The Volta installation runs fine, but it then fails on unpacking Node.

Run npm ci
  npm ci
  shell: /usr/bin/bash -e {0}
  env:
    VOLTA_HOME: /opt/hostedtoolcache/volta/1.1.1/x64
Volta error: Could not unpack Node v18.16.1

Please ensure the correct version is specified.
Volta error: Error cause: failed to unpack `/opt/hostedtoolcache/volta/1.1.1/x64/tmp/.tmpsOnC5r/node-v18.16.1-linux-x64/bin/node`

Error cause: failed to unpack `/opt/hostedtoolcache/volta/1.1.1/x64/tmp/.tmpsOnC5r/node-v18.16.1-linux-x64/bin/node`

Error cause: Resource temporarily unavailable (os error 11)

Edit: This was partially mentioned here already. But it looks more like an issue directly related to Volta.

We're running into the same issues. Two different machines on different networks, specifying different versions of node.
This has worked fine for us previously.

The node status page doesn't show any issues at the time of this message.

Same here.

Closing this as a duplicate of #1523. We are thinking about this problem, but none of us has yet had time to tackle it. See my latest comment there for our current best guesses as to what's going on!
