Hi Craig, Some questions: When you configure the connection in the 'Add a new Cloud' dialog, does 'test connection' work for you? I don't see a host and credentials specified, I'm not sure if jenkins libvirt plugin works with the local connection. In my setup, I have specified the host and the credentials like this: http://people.freebsd.org/~novel/misc/jenkins-libvirt-01.png Then, the new node screen doesn't look complete as well. There, one has to choose one of the pre-defined domains, specify its IP address and credentials so Jenkins could ssh to it and run its agent. Also, one has to install JDK as the agent is Java-based. As I've described in my post, I did it using: pkg install java/openjdk7 command in the guest. Here's a config of my sample node: http://people.freebsd.org/~novel/misc/jenkins-libvirt-02.png After that in the node page one could start the agent and if ssh credentials and IP address of the VM are correct, the agent will successfully start: http://people.freebsd.org/~novel/misc/jenkins-libvirt-03.png Then in the nodes list it should be up and ready for the builds: http://people.freebsd.org/~novel/misc/jenkins-libvirt-04.png Note: depending on the policy specified for node, it might be turned off when idle so it'll be reported down in this list until when new jobs for it appear.
