[This test on roachdash](https://roachdash.crdb.dev/?filter=status:open%20t:.*TestTxnModePauseResume.*&sort=title+created&display=lastcommented+project) | [Improve this report!](https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/tree/master/pkg/cmd/bazci/githubpost/issues)

Start with the linked test report and captured logs for crosscluster/logical/txnmode.TestTxnModePauseResume, then inspect test_log_scope.go, test_server_shim.go, and utils.go around the reported wait for the logical replication job. Reproduce the test with the shown commit and race parameters. Done means identifying and fixing the failure so the test passes reliably on the release branch.
