Hello everyone,

There seems to be a bug in LAVA. I was on version 2022.04 and have also tried 2023.03. Both versions have the same bug.

The same configurations works in a 2018 build of LAVA on an old machine.

I am trying to connect to an always on board via ssh.

The healthcheck is failing with this error :
