I have just setup a powershell script for windows slaves that install everything required for builds and automatically connects the slave to it's master based on the parameters given when the script was executed. This works fine until I close the powershell window or need to reboot the computer. Immediately when I close the window the slave connection dies.
I haven't got much experience with this JNLP connection so I have a few questions. Does the web interface version reconnect when the slave machine is rebooted? Would there be any differences between a manual connection and the scripted one if the script output was hidden in a background process? And the biggest one, how do people manage holding persistent connections between master and slave where the slave machine might be restarted? My current idea was to instead of launching the connection at the end of the script save it in a executable and execute that everytime the machine is booted. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
