how to run lava-test in qemu

Can you add the contents of /tmp/qemu.json ?

# /tmp/qemu.json
{
  "timeout": 18000,
  "job_name": "qemu-test",
  "device_type": "qemu",
  "target": "qemu01",
  "actions": [
    {
      "command": "deploy_linaro_image",
      "parameters": {
        "image": "file:///tmp/beagle-nano.img.gz"
        }
    },
    {
      "command": "boot_linaro_image"
    }
  ]
}

Thanks Andy Doan, that solved my question.

Hello All,

To continue the previous subject. I am getting the follwing error while running "lava-dispatch /tmp/qemu.json":

  File "/srv/lava/.cache/eggs/lava_dispatcher-0.24.1-py2.7.egg/lava_dispatcher/config.py", line 189, in get_device_config
    _get_config("devices/%s" % name, config_dir, initial_config)
  File "/srv/lava/.cache/eggs/lava_dispatcher-0.24.1-py2.7.egg/lava_dispatcher/config.py", line 158, in _get_config
    raise Exception("no config files named %r found" % (name + ".conf"))
Exception: no config files named u'devices/qemu01.conf' found

I do defently nave the /srv/lava/instances/<INST>/etc/lava-dispatcher/devices/qemu01.conf inplace and it looks all permissions
are correct. Please advise. Thank you.

What is the name of your instance? Can you paste the contents of qemu01.conf ?

Instance name is test. Content is following:

device_type = qemu
hostname = qemu01

thanks

I hope you have the conf file in the following location?

/srv/lava/instances/test/etc/lava-dispatcher/devices/qemu01.conf

Also when I do "lava devices" I am getting the following error:

..

It works fine only if I specify the --config-dir /srv/lava/instances/test/etc/lava-dispatcher parameter.
Any ideas why? Thanks in advance.

You must set up your instance's environment properly with:

  . /srv/lava/instances/test/bin/activate

Then you don't need the "--config-dir"

Thank you Andy and Senthil.
I have followed the Tutorial and basically have run the command above.
Probably I did something else wrong, but the root cause is identified and I can handle it.
Have a good day.
