If you’re willing to pony up some money, you should talk to Cloudbees regarding their Enterprise version (http://www.cloudbees.com/jenkins-enterprise-by-cloudbees-overview.cb). I haven’t tried it (yet), but it comes with several plugins you can’t get otherwise, and one of them is a High Availability plugin. This specifically allows you to fail over to a second Jenkins master on the fly if the master dies.

I'm sorry if already asked but i'm new on this list and searching the web has produced no results. We have a jenkins installation with 1 master and 5 slaves connected through ssh. We are mostly a java shop and jenkins is central to our infrastructure since we build and deploy releases to servers from it. For this reason slave resiliency in the face of master failure is paramount to us. My question: Is there a way, in a master/slave configuration, to have slave builds running to completion even in case of master failure (ideally refetching console logs once the master is back up :))? In our current setup, we get a proxy error on master UI and builds are aborted.
