From the outside, it appears that Lustre is failing these specific test cases when that is not the real problem at all.</p> <p>Perhaps, there needs to be a way to check the permissions and then skip the tests it cannot run based on this check? Also, displaying a human readable message explaining to the user why these tests are being skipped could provide useful.</p> LU-151

Test cases fail if the $RUNAS_ID does not have executable permissions

Improvement Minor Resolved Fixed Chris Gearing Prakash Surya Tue, 22 Mar 2011 14:27:52 +0000 Tue, 4 Mar 2014 01:27:25 +0000 Tue, 4 Mar 2014 01:27:25 +0000 Lustre 2.1.0 0 5 <p>Prakash</p> <p>I spoke with Chris Gearing, who is leading the efforts to revamp the whole Lustre test infrastructure. It sounds like this specific instance - and other similar instances which you alluded to in yesterday's meeting - should be tackled as part of the larger clean up plans.</p> <p>Regards</p> <p>Peter</p> <p>Thanks Peter.</p> <p>On a related note, as more issues with the test suite are uncovered, is opening individual JIRA tickets for each issue the accepted way to go about reporting them?</p> <p>Prakash</p> <p>Prakash</p> <p>Sorry I missed your question previously. I would say that opening a new ticket is the best way to go. It can always be closed as a duplicate if it is addressed as part of a larger cleanup exercise</p> <p>Peter</p> <p>JIRA cleanup project.<br/> Looks like this has been dealt with, so I'm marking it as resolved &#8211; but do shout if you want me to keep it open.<br/> Thanks,<br/> ~ jfc.</p> Development Rank 1|hzw0p3: Rank (Obsolete) 10193
