Specify the term "Jenkins instance". Is it seperate process on seperate machine? Or is it Slave?
If it is slave, then you could use something similar to Publisher plugin. If it is other instance on other machine, I would not recommend such activities as the result of any connection interruption withing you build infrastructure most likely will cost you a lot of valueable time of your release monekys :) 2012/7/6 Michaël Pailloncy <[email protected]> > Thanks for your reply. > > The goal of the plugin is to maintain Jobs configurations between a > Jenkins instance in 'production' and another one in 'pre-production'.
