Hi, In LAVA v1, as I remember, I can use either "device" or "device_type" to request a device for the test. If I use "device", for example "device": "beaglebone-black03", then the specific device, beaglebone-black03, will be used for the test. Can I do the same thing in LAVA v2? To request a device by using device name?

Hi Arthur,

No, it is a deliberate design decision in LAVA v2 to *not* do things that way. What are you trying to do that needs you to use a specific device? If there's special hardware attached (for example), then you could use device tags to manage that choice.
