Hello.
I'm a relatively new Jenkins user. My use-case for Jenkins is extremely
specific:
1>I must re-image a slave node which is connected to the Master via Java
Web Start.
2>The computer on re-imaging should execute the batch file in its startup
folder which connects it back to the Master.
3>The slave node must then execute the remaining instructions on the job.
What I want to know is how to make a Jenkins job which can actually do this.
I have setup the batch files to do 1 & 2 and when I execute it as a job, it
works fine.
The problem I am facing is that when the slave node is being re-imaged, it
loses connection to the master and hence any instructions afterwards in the
job will not be executed.
Is there any way I can lock that machine on to a set of tasks or jobs which
it should execute on reconnection?
An ideal scenario would be one where I just have to schedule the task and
it does (1), (2) and (3).
So I want the job to work as follows:
Job.start()
{
Execute( "Restore-Image" )
Wait.For.ConnectionFromSlave() <------------ How do I define a job
which will wait for the slave node to finish re-imaging, then connect back
and execute any instructions post this step?
Execute Remaining actions
}
I have tried the BuildFlow plugin, but there's a lack of documentation on
its usage and I haven't found helpful threads on StackOverflow either.
Help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
