Status
We currently have two separate versions of Hudson running for:
The SRS version just got updated to the latest pre-2.0 version: 1.398 (see all versions here).
This particular version had to be patched due to a bug in running maven processes on remote nodes. We followed the instructions on how to upgrade the version of sisu-guice 3.0.1.
Goals
The main goal is to have only one Hudson server running. It will handle builds from different experiments delegating the execution to worker nodes.
To do this we need to:
- Re-organize the EXO slaves; they are currently pretty messy.
- Find a server to run the LSST builds
- Import in SRS the Fermi builds.
Distribution
The Hudson war file is located at: /u/ey/freehep/hudson/. There is a directory for each version, containing hudson.war. There is also a current symlink that is used to load the most recent version in the server.xml on the server in which hudson is running.
Hudson Home
The home directory where Hudson keeps its configuration files and build results is located at tomcat/BASE/HOST/home/.home on the HOST where it is running.
Hudson Settings
For SRS the Hudson settings are located under /nfs/slac/g/srs/hudson
Worker Nodes
There are a few worker nodes that are running experiment specific builds. The slave.jar file must be kept synchronized with the version of the hudson war file when upgrades are performed. To do this it is necessary to shut down the worker node by loggin in on the machine on which the worker node is running and killing the java process.
To find which server a worker node is running on follow: Manage Hudson -> Manage Nodes -> NODE_NAME -> System Information There you can look for HOST.
How do we run the monitor script?
