Description

**Note:** This build has runtime assertions enabled. If the same failure was hit in a run without assertions enabled, there should be a similar failure without this message. If there isn't one, then this failure is likely due to an assertion violation or (assertion) timeout.

Research direction

Start with the failure at test_runner.go:990, then read pkg/cmd/roachtest/README.md and inspect the TeamCity build log and artifacts for jepsen/g2/parts-start-kill-2. Compare the repeated ssh_problem reports and roachdash entries to identify a reproducible cause; done means the failure is explained and the recurring test problem is addressed.
