These tests are never going to be fixed or work in 9.0/8.18.
It would be better to remove them from those branches.

@gmjehovich I'm ++ on @ldematte's suggestion

a few other questions:

• are the tests failing on 8.17 and 8.18? I don't recall if we disabled the security manager there too, or not.
• this PR is open against 9.0 so I don't think the backport would work against 9.1

are the tests failing on 8.17 and 8.18? I don't recall if we disabled the security manager there too, or not.

8.17 is OK, no change.
8.18 already has entitlements (no security manager).

this PR is open against 9.0 so I don't think the backport would work against 9.1

9.1 should be OK -- correct me if I'm wrong, but in 8.19/9.1/main we now have unit tests for entitlements and these test should have been updated to use it?
I think it's OK to mute in 8.19/9.1/main until we get around to use entitlements in these tests (if we havent' done that already!).
But we are never going to backport unit tests for entitlements to 9.0/8.18, so for these branches we should delete instead of mute (IMO).

@ldematte I just meant that I'm not sure our backport tool works if you open a PR against 9.0 with a 9.1 label -- I'm just assuming that the backport tool would only open backport PRs against versions lower than the branch the PR is open against.

I can confirm that this works :)
See this example of backport from 8.x to main

Edit: Sorry, just double checked it and it wont work. The 9.1 is not listed here:

elasticsearch/.backportrc.json

Line 3 in 16429d0

"targetBranchChoices" : [ "main", "9.0", "8.18", "8.17", "8.16", "8.15", "8.14", "8.13", "8.12", "8.11", "8.10", "8.9", "8.8", "8.7", "8.6", "8.5", "8.4", "8.3", "8.2", "8.1", "8.0", "7.17", "6.8" ],

It would work from 9.0 to main, but not 9.0 to 9.1

@mosche confirmed that he fixed the tests for 8.19/9.1/main porting them to use entitlements. These tests should be now unmuted on those branches, and should be not muted again.

We are not backporting unit tests support for entitlement to 8.18/9.0, so these test there will never work. I suggest we remove them.

8.17 is unchanged and uses the SM if available, which means Java < 24.
