This error sounds like the firmware doesn't support ejecting virtual media.

@shashank-boyapally Did you happen to reach out to the lab team and see if this machine does not support the task asked? If so this isn't a jetlag bug but rather a hardware issue. Please let us know. Thanks!

[shashank-boyapally]

Hi @akrzos, I'll reach out to the lab team and see if this error is related to hardware. Thank you for the heads up.

Maybe it was the virtual console plug-in type? - https://github.com/redhat-performance/jetlag/blob/main/docs/troubleshooting.md#unable-mount-virtual-media

[akrzos]

@shashank-boyapally following up on this, did you ever find out from the lab team if there was a hardware issue?
