2016-03-18 15:44:51 Jeff Lane  description Testing the latest RC2 for checkbox and I noticed the following messages in the checkbox-ng output when trying for the first time: There are 0 incomplete sessions that might be resumed Preparing... Ignoring invalid instantiated unit Disk statistics for /dev/vda: Problem with field _description: wrong Ignoring invalid instantiated unit disk/smart_vda: Problem with field _description: wrong Ignoring invalid instantiated unit disk/read_performance_vda: Problem with field description: wrong Ignoring invalid instantiated unit disk/storage_device_vda: Problem with field _description: wrong canonical-certification-server 0.23~c1~ppa~ubuntu15.10.1 canonical-certification-submit 0.23~c1~ppa~ubuntu15.10.1 checkbox-ng 0.24~c2~ppa~ubuntu15.10.1 plainbox-provider-checkbox 0.26~c3~ppa~ubuntu15.10.1 python3-checkbox-ng 0.24~c2~ppa~ubuntu15.10.1 python3-checkbox-support 0.24~c2~ppa~ubuntu15.10.1 And sure enough, in the Test List, they are not present: [X] + Benchmarks tests │ │ [X] + CPU tests │ │ [X] - Disk tests │ │ [X] disk/detect │ │ [X] disk/stats_vda │ │ [X] + Ethernet Device tests │ │ [X] + Informational tests │ │ [X] + Memory tests │ │ [X] + Miscellaneous tests │ │ [X] + Optical Drive tests │ │ [X] + Power Management tests │ │ [X] + USB tests │ │ [X] + Uncategorised │ │ [X] + Virtualization tests This was seen in a Digital Ocean droplet running amd64 15.10. The problem seems to be the format of the description. As it currently sits, the description for Stats, for example, is this: _description: This test checks disk stats, generates some activity and rechecks stats to verify they've changed. It also verifies that disks appear in the various files they're supposed to. . This test will inspect the following disk: . product name: {product} sysfs path: {path} device node path: /dev/{name} Replacing instances of {product} with {name} in disk.txt.in resolved the issue for all of it in the Digital Ocean droplet. I saw similar on a zKVM instance but in that case, changing {product} to {name} did not fix it and I only saw disk/detect as a disk test. Also, on Xenial, I never saw any of hte "Ignoring ..." messages. We do a lot of testing on KVM and VM type scenarios (PowerVM, PowerKVM, sometimes standalone KVM devices from partners and also eventually z/KVM and z/VM) Testing the latest RC2 for checkbox and I noticed the following messages in the checkbox-ng output when trying for the first time: There are 0 incomplete sessions that might be resumed Preparing...
