Thanks for the info Mats!

Do you know if all of the machines are supposed to have the update at this 
time? After the banner disappeared I retriggered a build that had a failure. It 
just failed again and it appears to be due to the same issue of the machine 
being out of room. Here is a link to the console output:

https://build.iotivity.org/ci/job/iotivity-verify-tizen_unsecured/3089/console

A couple of other times where Jenkins needed to be restarted I saw emails go 
out to the dev alias indicating that it was going to happen. Is it part of our 
policy to send out emails for when Jenkins is down or needs to go down? If not 
I think it is something we should consider adding just so everyone has an idea 
of what is happening.

Thanks,
Alex

it had an emergency restart a few hours ago because no build sets were 
completing (what you were seeing, but it got even worse)

LF staff applied a fix which hopefully will help.  At some point in the past, a 
switch was made from completely instantiating images fresh each time to leaving 
them set up - I'm presuming that was to (a) decrease startup time and (b) 
reduce load during startup.  Anyway, the side effect was that some state was 
lying around and it has led to lots of disk-full problems.  Today's change was 
to commit a pending change to do cleanup in between runs.

This is my understanding - it's not the "official word" but I'm trying the best 
I can to keep on top of it, and harass people (slight grin).

It has indeed been really frustrating that for some time now, it's hard to 
reliably count on a given build set going through without tripping over 
something that wasn't related to the change being made.
