The page will show the loading bar while the first component loads: <img alt="image" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/UbCrZzPRK6aZjTEEaGF6wYph80rfQ8ETbRFncuOuiD3euy29f2xfuTB4ii78tgk4W4fu12Lu4XG09xYz8AKri8jkFfuPsiQ9alqvfjogdAmPnLtp47XRkyEgJ5MicjZzU5nQkuzu9AaBWJNF6qxo_GceRAyKVcIHpkbL6vnvxuSt33NF" height=205 width=624> And the status of all the components after that:<img alt="image" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/ts0kVxdAp8rrmblexWHW5XmaOo1cJQGXuxLMZ4Pkhr9bLE3AqZUOLf0A2yUoNb0F2xZwGsM04Pd5_jq7Mxx0F1vhbIXOWSa5RuMSaalNxLZ_y5QCUN8Mi9ldkYdG7Oxd0vu7OQEkVRMzRv-kq68lIOMcbuBSesg-ZQktUj6hEbntI3Bk" height=432 width=624> When all the components are up and running the page will automatically redirect to the main page;

Mar 16th 2021: Moblab Update
***You should reboot your Moblab when next not running tests to get this latest version of the software.***
To check you have the latest Moblab software you can just look at this text in the configuration page, if it says No updates found you have the latest.
Moblab checks for new versions every 1 hour.
Highlights
The old UI has been removed. Result Uploads use less bandwidth particularly for CTS/GTS. StorageQual setup check has been moved to the UI. New button to provision DUTs.
Stable Chrome OS version configuration
Set the version of Chrome OS used during the DUT repair process.
Powerwash is required to update google account configuration.
If a Moblab is moved from one account to another, it must be powerwashed or the data will not show correctly on CPCon. This has been enforced in the Moblab UI.
Added DUT labels to summary page
Added MAC Address to summary page
Similar to the old UI the DUT labels show up on the manage DUT page.
Added “Reverify Selected” button
Similar to the old UI you can select a set of DUTs and force a reverify. If verify fails then a repair will be performed. There is a quick select option for all “Repair Failed” DUT's
Added Provision DUT’s button
Based on user feedback we have added a button that will allow you to provision some or all of the DUT’s attached to the Moblab to a particular version for testing. This is useful for manual CTS-V testing.
Added link to logs in DUT Actions History
Added suites hardware_thermalqual_fast / hardware_thermalqual_full
Added DUTs configuration check for Storage Qualification suite to UI.
Previously you would run a test called “check_setup_storage_qual” now the same logic is built into the UI so you can not run a storage qual suite without the correct labels/number of DUT’s
Upload status is now shown as an icon; a cloud icon means it has been uploaded to CPCon.
Faster uploads using less bandwidth
Files are now compressed before upload. CTS/GTS will not upload debug files for PASSED tests.
Various bug fixes and improvements.
Jan 30th 2021: Moblab Update
***You should reboot your Moblab when next not running test to get this latest version of the software.***
There has been an bug fix update to moblab to fix one important ( but rare ) bug and two smaller
issues.
Note the OS version of moblab will not change with this update, if you want to make sure you have the latest
version of moblab reboot, and check the configuration page, and make sure it says “No updates found”
Fixes:
Results Offloader:
Fix issue where in rare circumstances the database can get out of sync and the results get sent to CPCon before
the test has actually completed: https://crbug.com/1171428
UI
Show more builds in the dropdown to select a build number: https://crbug.com/1157114
Remote Agent
Fix issue where disconnected devices were not showing up correctly. https://crbug.com/1167377
Jan 21th 2021: Moblab Update
***You should reboot your Moblab to get this latest version of the software.***
This update includes an update to the underlying moblab ChromeOS version; after the update you will be running version R87-13505.101.0
To check you have the latest Moblab software you can just look at this text in the configuration page, if it says No updated found you have the latest.
Moblab checks for new versions every 1 hour.
Moblab “Pause”:
This is a new feature, it allow users with particularly long running suites, normally storage qualification, to pause their Moblab so they can update the software
or stop generating data if they have a particularly slow uplink to Google.
It should be noted - this feature does NOT stop the current running tests. It prevents new tests from being scheduled, you can then have to wait until all your DUT's
are in “ready” state. After then you can safely update/reboot your Moblab without losing data.
Moblab will automatically turn on Pause feature if your disk space is getting low. This typically happens when your Moblab is generating data faster than your
internet connection can copy it to Google. The Pause will allow time for your Moblab to catch up and you can unpause when there is enough disk space available.
Remote Console
Bug fixes and some changes to how often data is sent back to CPCon about failed DUT's.
Uploader
Improved performance when there are problems or slow connections, uploader will now only retry files that have not already been copied to the cloud rather than
re-trying the copy of all the files in the in the test result.
UI
Run Suite: The “Other” Tab now has a drop down list of suites you can run. You can still select an option to enter a suite name that is not on the list.
Other non user visible bug fixes.
This likely will be the last release that includes the Old UI - we have got feedback on features that need to be included in the new UI and are working on those
for the next release. We will address all feedback before the remove the Old UI.
December 7th 2020: Moblab Update
***You should reboot your Moblab to get this latest version of the software.***
This is a regularly scheduled release of Moblab.
To check you have the latest Moblab software you can just look at this text in the configuration page, if it says No updated found you have the latest.
Moblab checks for new versions every 1 hour.
Manage DUT’s:
Launch beta of firmware inspect/update.
You can now view the current firmware version of all the current
attached DUT’s. The version in the updater package is also shown and you
can choose to update the firmware to that version if you wish. This is
still a beta feature please file bugs / ask questions if you have
issues.
Configuration:
Added checkbox for remote command. If you are not a CTS 3PL you can ignore this setting, It is only useful to a few CTS 3PL labs.
Run Suite:
Added Storage Qualification V2 - Do not run unless requested to do so by Google. Added CTS R - Do not run unless requested to do so by Google.
General:
There is a warning message on the old UI, we are going to remove that UI in January. Please file bugs if you still need to use it. Force all web traffic from browser to Moblab to go through port 80, if you are sending the "New UI" over SSH this will make things simpler. Add logs links to the View Jobs table.
MobMonitor:
Show an unhealthy state if the service account is missing, allows you to fix this error. Show warning if any Moblab process is not running. Example this can show if offloader has failed.
Remote Agent:
Fix for issues with network speeds being incorrectly reported.
There are many other bug fixes and small improvements.
**To intake this update, please find the update button on the new UI here. This change will require a reboot to be applied. Please wait until all tests are complete before applying this change. This change includes revisions to the new UI which may require a cache clear to be seen.**
