This release includes enhancements and bug fixes as follows: Improvements Program Details All Certifications Responses to all rhcert prompts recorded in the test run logs - User responses to some prompts were not captured in the logs making debugging and assisting partners more difficult. RHCert will now capture and include the responses to all prompts in the test suite logs. All Certifications Traceback fixed in rhcert WebUI - An issue was fixed where providing an incorrect IP address to the RHCert LTS Web UI when associating a new System Under Test could cause the interface to traceback with an “error at /configuration” message. The interface now correctly provides a “no route to host” message. Hardware Certification Storage Tests updated to ignore an ignorable mkfs stderr message - Later versions of mkfs will print a message to stderr about ignoring invalide stripe sizes in block alignment. This error message would cause the storage tests to return a failure even though the file system was otherwise created correctly. The test now ignores this ignoring message and will continue to test the storage device. Hardware Certification Fixed an rc.local permission with RHEL 8 virtualization tests (fv_*) for RHEL 8 based images - An issue was fixed where the permissions of the rc.local file in a RHEL 8 guest may prevent the tests from running and capturing the test output for retrieval by the host. The test will now correct the permissions. Hardware Certification Updated Laptop keys test in the preview package to Python3 - The code was updated in the Laptop specific keyboard test to support Python 3 as used in RHEL 8. The test remains in the preview package to provide partner early testing opportunities for potentially upcoming feature capabilities testing. Special Notice - End of new release announcements The above information is available in the release notes with-in the updated test suite packages and from the configuration page of Local Test Server WebUI interface. Notices of new releases of the test suite go out using the standard Red Hat Errata mechanism and any internet connected LTS will display a notification banner about new releases. DNF and YUM will keep a connected LTS up to date with the latest Red Hat certification releases. With the multiple quantities of mechanisms and methods to keep partners informed and systems up to date, Red Hat will stop sending regular update messages about regular RHCert update releases. We will send an additional two regular errata RHCert update announcements after this announcement to provide an adjustment period for those that rely on this email. Special and high impact events will still receive announcements and special events. This notice is only regarding announcement mails for regular errata for RHCert We value your ongoing participation in Red Hat certification, software development, and testing efforts. Thank you for your continued partnership. If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact Ecosystem Partner Management. Regards, The Red Hat Certification Team
