Running zfs tests

Setup VM with:
CPU - 4
Memory - 8GB
Hard disk - 100GB (for software installation) SATA
Three additional hard drives - 8GB (for zfs test) SATA or NVME

names of other pools

Do not create pools with names that can be used in the tests, i.e. testpool*. otherwise the tests work incorrectly.

Have to use DEBUG build, where we have debug macro

Create user:

useradd -m -d /var/ztest -g staff -s /bin/bash ztest
# add password for remote ssh
passwd ztest

Add user to sudo:

echo "ztest ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" >> /etc/sudoers.d/ztest

Install packages for zfs tests:

apt update
apt install system-test-zfstest testrunner system-file-system-zfs-tests python3

Update /etc/sudoers:

# update /etc/sudoers:
sudo -E /usr/bin/sed -i.bak '/secure_path/a\Defaults exempt_group+=staff' /etc/sudoers
sudo -E /usr/bin/sed -i.bak 's/ requiretty/ !requiretty/' /etc/sudoers

login by user ztest and run tests and run script z.sh:

#!/bin/bash

# we need 3 x 8G drives with 512b sector size
export DISKS="c0t600144F0A31AAA6200005B2ECCE00004d0 c0t600144F0A31AAA6200005B2ECCF30005d0 c0t600144F0A31AAA6200005B2ECCFF0006d0"

# cleanup drives before tests:
sudo -E /sbin/zpool create -f test123321 $DISKS
sudo -E /sbin/zpool destroy test123321

# run tests
/bin/ksh /opt/zfs-tests/bin/zfstest

wait about 5h-6h or more for full tests and found full logs at:

/var/tmp/test_results/<ISO TIME>

Note for cli_user tests:

These tests require the creation of files in /usr/share/zfs/zpool.d:

upath

/usr/share/zfs/zpool.d/upath

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" = "-h" ] ; then
        echo "Show the underlying path for a device."
        exit
fi

# shellcheck disable=SC2154
echo upath="$VDEV_UPATH"

iostat, iostat-10s, iostat-1s (the content is the same)

/usr/share/zfs/zpool.d/iostat

#!/bin/sh
#
# Display most relevant iostat bandwidth/latency numbers.  The output is
# dependent on the name of the script/symlink used to call it.
# 
helpstr="
