Andrew, I don't know of any such plugin. There are some subtle bugs that can be introduced if you do the slave provisioning in a Cloud implementation wrong, they usually won't show up unless provisioning goes wrong or where a retention strategy tries to remove a partially provisioned slave or where locking is incorrectly used between the retention strategy code and the provisioning code. We have been trying to figure out how best to fix core so that these bugs are not something that implementers need concern themselves with.
I would suspect that a shell command based provisioner could suffer more from these issues than a Java based one as the shell command based one will not have the full context in order to understand what VMs are in the process of being provisioned/reaped, etc Good luck, and don't let my hints scare you off though! -Stephen On 26 June 2012 02:24, Andrew Melo <andrew.m...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > We have access to a in-house VM service that provides a SOAP > interface.
