Re: Jenkins Backup and Restore

[RAJENDRA PRASAD]

I have another solution, just document the list of plugins in old Jenkins

new Jenkins server.

Thanks,
Rajendra

[jxpearce]

a plugin (of which there are several).

Re: Jenkins Backup and Restore

[jxpearce]

Have you considered sending a PR to (or at least filing a Github issue for) 
the plugins in question?

 

It's probably an easy fix to handle symlinks

Re: Jenkins service going down on Windows Slave

Just found it.  In the Slave configuration section, below "Launch method" 
in "Advanced" there is a section called "JVM options".  We can pass it as a 
parameter here.  Need to test it and see if it works.

Re: Jenkins Backup and Restore

[John Mellor]

I have had restore issues with *ALL* of the backup plugins that I have
tried.  The problem is that they are using stupid mechanisms to copy
the filesystem that cannot correctly copy a symlink.  This breaks the
LastSuccessfulBuild and LastUnsuccessfulBuild and LastFailedBuild
symlinks, causing lots of secondary issues.

Doing my own using cpio or rsync in a cronjob only messes up copying
very large files that exceed the archive limits (4GB for cpio for
instance).

There should be a way to pass parameters to the JVM in the .xml file

Re: Jenkins Backup and Restore

[Artur Szostak]

Just my opinion: but I would forget about the backup plugins in Jenkins for 
full production backups. They all do a poor job when it comes to a full backup 
for a production system that also needs high availability. The best that can be 
done at the moment is to run Jenkins on a file system or data store that is 
able to perform copy-on-write snapshots. From within Jenkins you will want to 
setup a simple job that triggers the copy-on-write snapshot when no other job 
is running. Then use your normal production backup solutions to backup the 
snapshot in the background.

Cheers

Subject: Jenkins Backup and Restore

We have a Jenkins instance running and we are trying to setup a backup and 
restore mechanism in case of any mishaps.  We are looking for a full backup of 
the Jenkins and so decided to go with PeriodicBackup plugin.  With this plugin, 
the backup works fine.  But, we are trying to restore it in a completely new 
Jenkins setup and not able to restore.  When we pick the backup file that we 
want to restore from, it says restoring, but nothing happens.  Even after 
waiting out for over 30 mins, nothing is restored.  As a work around, I stopped 
the Jenkins service, renamed the 'JENKINS_HOME' (/var/lib/jenkins) folder to 
'jenkins_backup' and created another folder called 'jenkins' in the same 
location.  In this folder, I copied all the files from the backup and then 
started Jenkins (NOTE: I didn't change the .owner file.  I'm using the .owner 
file of the new Jenkins only).  Jenkins came up and I was able to see all the 
configurations from the old one.  Everything was fine.  I let it like that 
overnight and in the morning when I came and tried to access it, Jenkins was 
way too slow and I was not able to save any new configuration.  When I try I'm 
getting
java.io.ioexception: too many open files jenkins
error.  I restarted the jenkins and it's taking too long for the UI to come up. 
 Am I doing anything wrong here?  Any suggestions for my requirement?

P.S. - I tried SCMSync plugin and ThinBackup.  But, problem with these are that 
they don't do full backup.  But, with ThinBackup both backup and restore works 
fine.

Re: Jenkins service going down on Windows Slave

[John Mellor]

Hi Slide,

We run our worker nodes mostly on sometimes-overloaded VMware hosts. We also 
interrupt the undersized network fairly routinely, for other reasons. Can you 
try hooking in a network degradation service, so that you see network outages, 
for instance.

JNLP connections fail in these circumstances, while ssh connections do not. 
Unfortunately, Windows essentially requires JNLP-only connections.

Re: Jenkins service going down on Windows Slave

We have that problem all the time. IMHO the JNLP connectivity to the master is 
not robust enough to be used.

I have tried setting up the agent connection as a service per the Jenkins doc, 
but it still cannot survive momentary network or performance outages. The only 
way that I have managed to get this machine consistent, is to reboot the 
Windows machine and the service will shortly re-establish connectivity. JNLP

Jenkins Dependencies

[Eric Fetzer]

Our systems group removed some packages from our RHEL 6.10 server in order 
to remove the TSM Client.  It has caused our AD integration to quit 
working.  Which of the following dependencies are required for Jenkins 
version 2.138.2:

TIVsm-BA-6.4.2-3
TIVsm-filepath-6.4.2-0
TIVsm-API64-6.4.2-3
gskssl64-8.0-14.43
gskcrypt64-8.0-14.43

We're also getting all kinds of warnings in "Manage Jenkins" which I don't 
recall before the removal of these packages.  Could this be related?

Re: Jenkins Batch to Bash

[RAJENDRA PRASAD]

Hi Ele,

You dont need to cover ant scripts:

Here is the Jenkins migration Steps from Windows to Linux:

*On Windows Machine Perform Following Activities*
1. First find out the Plugins Installed on windows Jenkins setup
2. Find out Tools like (maven,ant,jdk ..etc) installed on windows Jenkins
server (You can find these on jenkins global tool configuration)
3. Then Stop Jenkins and Copy all jobs files from Windows Jenkins Server:
/jobs Folder
 * How to Find Jenkins Home Folder:*
  Login to Jenkins
 Manage Jenkins
 System Configuration
 Click the first "advanced" buttonhere you can find
Jenkins_home path
