Hi there, Chris over in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-16768 recommended I start a thread.
We've been getting increasing numbers of failures on our builds due to nodes running out of disk space. In 16768, Chris says: "We are getting to the point where builds are running machines out of space faster than we can clear them out. I've cleaned up H24 a bit. We'll discuss further, but this is going to take some cooperation amongst all builders to start purging workspaces." So this is the requested thread. What do we, collectively, as Jenkins users, need to do to clean out workspaces? I'm fairly sure that CouchDB workspaces are pretty clean, since we do the bulk of our builds in /tmp and try our best to clean up after failed builds. But I am happy to admit I don't know everything I should or shouldn't be doing. Chris, would a list of the "top offenders" be useful? I'm not looking to shame anyone, but shedding a little light on the approaches that are the biggest problem might help. -Joan
