Why I did it
Each 7800R3A SKU has a different name which must be present in the platform.json file. Previously each SKU directory was symlinked together causing sonic-mgmt platform API tests to fail. By instead symlinking the common files in each directory, we can have the
platform.json
file be different per SKU as required.Work item tracking
How I did it
I removed the symlinks and instead created separate directories per SKU.
How to verify it
I ran sonic-mgmt tests with this change and verified that the tests now pass.
