Only their build reports with warnings and errors should be kept and the builds themselves be should be discarded.
If we make such a setup correct on the centOS box, the footprint of the vm wille be smalll, and can even be tarted on demand. I have a similar setup, the vm only contains build environment, no svn files, they are attached as local network drives (very fast). Starting/stopping can be done by making a buildbot job for the centos. that way we can have multiple test env. rgds jan i > > Herbert > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org >
