[Lava-users] Using SCP to deploy overlayfs

Hi all,

I’m failing to understand how to transfer an overlay (containing tests) to an embedded device.

My device health check runs a Kernel via tftp and works fine. When I’m trying to add tests it fails since the overlay isn’t found. How are tests added when outside of a QEMU instance (which uses mount)?.

My idea was to use SCP but defining a `ssh_host` for for the targeted device gives me an error since power commands are defined. I’m thinking of a workflow like tftpboot -> wait for prompt -> run scp -> run tests.

All I could find in the docs is MultiNode related, which is from my understanding something I don’t want for this very basic testing.

Could someone please give me some advise?

Best, Paul
