The temporary fix to pass the gate jobs is to mock the 'warnings.warn' method in the test method. Then add a TODO note to fix storing non-UUID value in the 'map_instances' command of the 'CellV2Commands' class. The fundamental solution is to change the design of the 'map_instances' command. In the first place, it is not good to store non-UUID value in the UUID field. In some compute REST APIs, it returns the 'marker' parameter in their pagination. Then users can specify the 'marker' parameter in the next request. So it is one way to change the command to stop storing a 'marker' value in the InstanceMapping (instance_mappings) DB table and return (print) a 'marker' value and be able to be specifid the 'marker' value as the command line argument.
