I don't think that there is a way for a build to survive the death of its slave.
I had this scenario a few months ago (part of the job involved rebooting the target machine). My solution was to run the slave at a "safe location" outside the system under test, and have the build steps themselves run SSH to the target system. Thus, the slaves and the system under test were on different boxes entirely, allowing the slave to survive the reboot. --Rob From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of EK Sent: Wednesday, November 13, 2013 5:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: How to run a job which will require the slave to go offilne for while ? Hi All ... My Scenario is as follows , I need to trigger a script( via jenkins job) , this script might cause disconnection between jenkins slave and jenkisn server which will cause the job to be marked as failed \aborted ? is there any way that I can go around this issue ? any special plug in that will allow me to continue running jobs even if slave goes offline while server retry to reconnect before it marks job stats as aborted or failed ?
