Hi all,

Recently I updated device dictionary for my devices in lava server machine.

I added {% set user_commands = {'start_tpm': {'do': 'cmd1', 'undo': 'cmd2' }%} in the following file /etc/lava-server/dispatcher-config/devices/qemu-01.jinja2

After updating I was successfully able to use these user defined commands in my job definitions using command action where ever i needed them.

But a strange thing is happening after I made the above mentioned changes is I am unable to start the job where it is throwing Infrastructure error: Cannot find command '' in $PATH` when I use minimal boot action in my job.

I cross checked this in 2 ways,

1. I removed my user command device dictionary related changes from my lava server and my job is starting and is completed successfully even if i have minimal boot action in my job. 2. I changed my boot action from ( method: minimal ) to (method: qemu , media: tmpfs ), and i retained user command device dictionary changes in my device template.. In this case also the job started and is completed successfully.

So is there some conflict between adding commands to device dictionary and using minimal boot action in our job ?

I am not sure how these two are related. My use-case badly requires minimal boot actions in my job as well as some user defined commands in device template. Please have a look at my job definition and run log https://lava.ciplatform.org/scheduler/job/1089996. I needed minimal boot action to finish the boot action only if i get a particular shutdown-message or else I want it to timeout and be incomplete.

Can anyone please help me how to resolve this issue ?
