 +
 +==== Wednesday 2018/02/14 ====
 +
 +=== rajm ===
 +
 +   * Discovered that connecting to LAVA on the newly created VM was giving an '​Internal server error' ​ after trying various options - rebooting both the VM and the host (I was working from home via VPN so wanted to rule that out), I found in in /​var/​log/​lava-server/​django.log a python stack dump ending with DoesNotExist:​ Site matching query does not exist and realised that the change I made to the site name in preparation for the emails must have broken LAVA. The LAVA installation doesn'​t easily uninstall/​re-install - too much extra config so I started another VM from scratch. I will review the wiki instructions on hostname carefully.
 +   * Saw Zoran'​s comments on [[https://​gitlab.com/​cip-project/​cip-testing/​testing/​issues/​99|99]] - problems when behind a proxy - and have reopened that issue.
 +   * I used busybox 1.28.0 rather than the 1.26.2 mentioned on the wiki to build initramfs and the eventual health check ran first time - I propose to update the wiki to reference that version.
 +   * Installed mail server on VM and successfully sent health check success email with the latest ​ kernel built using the latest kernelci. ​
 +
 +
 +==== Tuesday 2018/02/13 ====
 +
 +=== rajm ===
 +
 +   * Created [[https://​gitlab.com/​cip-project/​cip-testing/​board-at-desk-single-dev/​merge_requests/​54|MR54]] to address issue #165.

 +   * Looked at the AGL LAVA output.
 +   * Started to create a VM to be used to send out health check emails to the list.
 +
 +
 +
 +==== Friday 2018/02/09 ====
 +
 +=== rajm ===
 +
 +   * Revised the MR (53) in line (I hope) with bwh's comments.
 +   * Checked that issue [[https://​gitlab.com/​cip-project/​cip-testing/​testing/​issues/​157|#​157]] is still a problem.
