While creating new submission in device console, I get to the window where i
specify the INF file and click load button. I can see INF is loaded. But when
i click the next button i get the following error message

No devices using the specified driver could be found in the selected machine
pool. Running jobs with no devices will most likely result in a failed
submission.

I checked the client machine. I can see the device is installed.

Appreciate any help.

I suggest you post any follow ups into the new group
microsoft.public.development.device.drivers.dtm. I've put a reply there as
well to try to move DTM threads there.

I've had this happen in a couple of circumstances:
1. The MCU policy hadn't applied completely to the client and the
"gatherers" had not finished capturing information about the DTM client.
Simply waiting and retrying prevented the error and further tests were
successful.

2. The INF file specified didn't match exactly what the DTM client had
registered. This is very easy to do if you install one build on DTM client
and point to another on DTM controller...

To consistently get this to work I have been using exact same path to driver
package on both DTM controller and DTM Client and ensured that
%windir%\inf\OEMxx.inf matches as well. For instance C:\package would
contain INF plus all files referenced by it (including CAT) as well as the
prefast results from that SYS file's build. Before running the test I
simply copied the contents of C:\package to DTM Client's C:\package folder.
I'd set any parameters in jobs to be relative to C:\package.

3. When I first started with DTM I was not using INF to install driver at
all so until I fixed up INF itself and had ChkInf pass the file successfully
I also received this same error. The stupid part was that in the beginning
I actually had forgotten to add the sys into the INF Itself and was
wondering why it failed! :)

Appreciate your help. I waited few mins as you suggested and that error
didn't come up.

I couldn't find microsoft.public.development.device.drivers.dtm. Could you
post web address for microsoft.public.development.device.drivers.dtm
newsgroup.

Thanks
