The "is" keyword in python is used to compare references to two objects, not their values. Newer version of python3 (version 3.8) throws a warning when such incorrect comparison is made. For value comparison, "==" should be used. Fix this in the code and suppress the following warning: /usr/sbin/vmbus_testing:167: SyntaxWarning: "is" with a literal. Did you mean "=="?
