No to what?

Jenkins 1.608 made slaves require Java7, so it might impact Raj's upgrade attempts.

I know the Java8 change hasn't been made, but it's coming soon as well.

Java7 has been around a long time, but so have the platforms I support, and we we moved up to a version that supported pipelines a number of the older platform slaves stopped working and some users had to scramble to adjust their jobs.

Well, no. The Java 8 change hasn't been made yet, though it is coming according to the announced plan (first weekly should be on April, and first LTS requiring it should be around early June). And Java 7 has been around for a long time.

And we already discussed the fact that though some platforms may not have a JDK packaged with std distro, it's dead simple to download it directly from , uncompress and be done with it on the big majority of platforms (Centos 6 is not an issue at all for instance, I can relate).

    I don't remember exactly when the change was made, but keep in
    mind that Java7 is required for slave nodes with recent versions
    of Jenkins.  If you have slave nodes without that available they
    will be dead in the water.

    Thank you for the feedback.

    Sure. we can do that and more simply with a vm snapshot for
    rollback.

    but in case of staging upgrade how do you propose \ suggest to
    manage the slave \ agents ? i ask since if i bring up the staging
    with a rsynced config then the agents will try to connect too and
    might cause a issue. or should we just make all slaves offline
    when i take a snaphot so when they do comeback they will be not
    connected to the master and that way we can test just the master
    and once it is fine then just connect all agents to the new server ?

        Hello,
        We have been stuck to a very old version of Jenkins for a
        while now. 1.580. we are on Centos 6.

        I am wondering if any one has upgraded from 1.580 to 2.32.2
        via yum and including all plugins ?

        If someone could share their experience it will be really
        appreciated.

        apart from need for jdk 1.8, is there any other hard
        dependency for the upgrade?
        Regards,
        Raj
