[ovirt-devel] [VDSM] All tests using directio fail on CI

[Nir Soffer]

Hi all,

It seems that the CI setup has changed, and /var/tmp is using now tempfs.

This is not compatible with vdsm tests, assuming that /var/tmp is a real file
system. This is the reason we do not use /tmp.

We have lot of storage tests using directio, and directio cannot work on
tempfs.

Please check the slaves and make sure /var/tmp is using file system supporting
directio.

See example failure bellow.

Nir
