Aytekin,

I'm sorry for the late reply.

Right.

Tests have a 'target_group' attribute that you can set. Targets, on
the other hand, belong to target groups. I suspect that you tried to set
the name of the host ('n2') where the target group was expected.

To set up a target for a particular group you should use

qmtest create-target -a remote_shell=/usr/bin/rsh n2 rsh_target.RSHTarget some_group

Then you may set your test's target_group value to 'some_group'.

The documentation at

http://www.codesourcery.com/public/qmtest/qm-2.3/manual.html/sec-qmtest-concepts.html#sec-targets

is all we have for the moment. Sorry.

HTH,
		Stefan
