[Avocado-devel] Issue running type_specific.io-github-autotest-qemu.pci_hotplug.hotplug_block.blk_virtio_blk.with_reboot:

[Navine Thomas]

Hi
When running the test case - 
type_specific.io-github-autotest-qemu.pci_hotplug.hotplug_block.blk_virtio_blk.with_reboot, 
I see the following error -
  "Could find a suitable method for hotplugging drive in this version of 
qemu" in the log file.

Its failing at 
https://github.com/autotest/tp-qemu/blob/master/qemu/tests/pci_hotplug.py

325    drive_cmd_type = is_supported_command("drive_add", 
"__com.redhat_drive_add")
326    if not drive_cmd_type:
327        test.error("Could find a suitable method for hotplugging"
328                         " drive in this version of qemu")


Is there something wrong with my configuration that "drive_add" is not 
supported? I've tried with the default JeOS and also Fedora. The qemu 
version I'm running is 2.10.


Thanks
