I am in the process of migrating our Airflow environment from version 1.10.15 to 2.3.3. I have migrated 1 DAG over to the new environment and intermittently I get an email with this error: Executor reports task instance finished (failed) although the task says its queued. (Info: None) Was the task killed externally?
When looking at the logs, this is what I find in the scheduler logs:

I am running Airflow on 2 servers with 2 of each service (2 schedulers, 2 workers, 2 webservers). They are running in docker containers. They are configured to use celery executor and I'm using RabbitMQ version 3.10.6 (also 2 instances in docker containers behind a LB). I am using Postgres 13.7 for our database (running one instance in a docker container on the 1st server). Our environment is running on Python 3.8.12.
From my understanding, the timeout is between the scheduler and rabbitmq? From what I can tell we are hitting this timeout: AIRFLOW__CELERY__OPERATION_TIMEOUT
(it's currently set to 4).
I would like to track down what is causing the issue before I just increase timeout settings. What can I do to find out what's going on? Anyone else run into this issue? Am I correct in assuming the timeout is between the scheduler and rabbitmq? Is it between the scheduler and database? Why am I seeing this with Airflow 2 when I have the same setup with Airflow 1 and it works with no problems? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Update: I was able to reproduce the error by shutting down 1 of the rabbitmq nodes. Even though rabbitmq is behind a LB with a health probe, whenever a job was picked up by scheduler 1, it would fail with this error... But if scheduler 2 picked up the job, it would finish successfully. The odd thing is that I shut down rabbitmq 2..
