Hi bigtop:

Are there any permanant builds saved on jenkins (for the VM matrix)?

If not it would be nice to add them for certain known well tested,
working disk images .

(for context, I'm currently running Mr2 build of the KVM box and it
appears to have some intermittent write issues on the DataNode path, and
also, my namenode appears to really like being in safe mode.  these
could just be due to VM setup though, as im changing some things like
adding static IPs and data node write paths... so nothing to be alarmed
about.)

Hi Jay,

Could you defined "permanent build" ?
I am not sure if this fits your requirement, but jenkins has a link to the latest successful build (ex: http://bigtop01.cloudera.org:8080/job/Bigtop-VM-matrix/BR=master,KIND=kvm,label=fedora16/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/bigtop-vm-kvm-master.tar.gz )

We do not store convenient artifacts of VMs since no one has asked about it before. So ideally, known well tested working disk images would be the ones from Apache Bigtop releases. But right now, there is not much testing of our VMs. But any help on that front would be welcome!

Note also that I added that VM more as a base VM for an Apache Hadoop cloud image than a developer VM. That's why there is not much in it as well as no desktop pre-configured. So depending on your needs, we may want to add a new VM or enhance the current one (also, boxgrinder enables inheritance between appliances).

Also Boxgrinder is apparently not being maintained anymore. So we may want to look into other VM builders (Oz, etc.)


Thanks,
Bruno
