Meirav - assigning directly to you to resolve as having ITR being set causes the Triaged flag to get set and thus may be missed. If this is something truly for a backlog, remove the ITR and reassign to virt-devel.  Just trying to ensure nothing is missed.

Also is this a RHEL 8.6.0 issue or a RHEL9 issue?  If RHEL9, then adjust the product, pool, and ITR

QE bot(pre verify): Set 'Verified:Tested,SanityOnly' as gating/tier1 test pass.

pc old machine type had been removed

Also, stable regression test(RHEL-AV 8.5.0 <-> RHEL9-beta) had been passed with all existed machine type 

Hi Juan

Can we verify the bz with above test?

Thanks
Jing

Comment 10 Juan Quintela 2021-08-25 14:22:02 UTC
Hi Jing

That is the correct result.

Just for comment, pc-q35-rchel7.6.0 needs to be maintained because we have no other machine type on RHEL-8.x (non-AV).

Later, Juan.
