When I ran Java update on a slave, it requested that javaw is stopped. when approving that then: ALL the slaves were terminated by the server.
I am adding the error in the server log for one of the slaves. The slaves pages also display a "failed to abort" error (pic attached) and cannot be restarted using javaw, before the whole Jenkins server (the service, not the machine) is restarted. server is ububntu hosted on AWS. Slaves are VM's, that are hosted on VMWARE DELL server. I also noticed that when a VM is restarted, this terminates all other slaves (by Jenkins server) version: 1.560 ------------------------ Server Log -------------- WARNING: NioChannelHub keys=17 gen=201082: Computer.threadPoolForRemoting 2 for + HV1-VM-SLAVE-22 terminated java.io.IOException: Failed to abort at org.jenkinsci.remoting.nio.NioChannelHub$NioTransport.abort(NioChannelHub.java:184) at org.jenkinsci.remoting.nio.NioChannelHub.abortAll(NioChannelHub.java:599) at org.jenkinsci.remoting.nio.NioChannelHub.run(NioChannelHub.java:481) at jenkins.util.ContextResettingExecutorService$1.run(ContextResettingExecutorService.java:28) at java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:439) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(FutureTask.java:303) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:138) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:895) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:918) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662) Caused by: java.nio.channels.ClosedChannelException at sun.nio.ch.SocketChannelImpl.shutdownInput(SocketChannelImpl.java:663) at sun.nio.ch.SocketAdaptor.shutdownInput(SocketAdaptor.java:430) at org.jenkinsci.remoting.nio.Closeables$1.close(Closeables.java:20) at org.jenkinsci.remoting.nio.NioChannelHub$MonoNioTransport.closeR(NioChannelHub.java:289) at org.jenkinsci.remoting.nio.NioChannelHub$NioTransport$1.call(NioChannelHub.java:226) at org.jenkinsci.remoting.nio.NioChannelHub$NioTransport$1.call(NioChannelHub.java:224) at org.jenkinsci.remoting.nio.NioChannelHub.run(NioChannelHub.java:474) ... 7 more Apr 22, 2014 8:56:08 AM jenkins.slaves.JnlpSlaveAgentProtocol$Handler$1 onClosed -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
