[LU-5680] sanity-hsm uses /etc/motd (which is probably of size 0)

• Type: Bug
• Resolution: Fixed
• Priority: Minor
• Fix Version/s: Lustre 2.12.1
• Affects Version/s: Lustre 2.11.0, Lustre 2.10.4
• Labels: hsm ubuntu

Description

In various tests sanity-hsm copies /etc/hosts, /etc/passwd, or /etc/modt for use as the test file. /etc/motd is likely of size 0 and may defeat the use of bandwidth control for timing. Uses of /etc/* should be replaced with a generated files of known suitable size. We should also add explicit tests using files of size 0.
