…l. (sonic-net#20106) Description of PR Since the latest image mounts /tmp as tmpfs, it uses RAM instead of disk storage. To simulate a disk full scenario, use the /host directory instead. The /host path is backed by the host’s actual disk (/dev/sda1, ext4), not memory. Therefore, operations performed in /host consume real disk space, and commands like fallocate behave as expected. Type of change Bug fix Testbed and Framework(new/improvement) New Test case Skipped for non-supported platforms Test case improvement Approach What is the motivation for this PR? Since the latest image mounts /tmp as tmpfs, it uses RAM instead of disk storage. To simulate a disk full scenario, use the /host directory instead. How did you do it?
