Hi All, Thanks to those who answered my previous question about setting up agents.
I now have two new agent nodes set up and want to move old jobs off the master, so the master won't be used for any building (just admin). How do I prevent jobs from running on the master? Do I just set "number of executors" to zero? For new jobs, I see the choice in their configuration allowing me to decide where to run the job, so I can force it to run on the agent node not the master. I understand old jobs are supposed to run on the master, but I don't want them to any more. Even cloned (new) jobs seem to not have the "Restrict where this job runs" configuration option, so I assume they will run on the master (as did the job from which they were cloned.) What are my options? This plugin seems to be one possibility for setting the node at build time (I imagine I can set its default to specify a new node for building?) https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/NodeLabel+Parameter+Plugin <https://webmail.novantas.com/owa/redir.aspx?SURL=bccvBaZmiAUZEiOjb7fb5V0hm90n_X4zGXw8tWkw-8ka1WNgEcbTCGgAdAB0AHAAcwA6AC8ALwB3AGkAawBpAC4AagBlAG4AawBpAG4AcwAtAGMAaQAuAG8AcgBnAC8AZABpAHMAcABsAGEAeQAvAEoARQBOAEsASQBOAFMALwBOAG8AZABlAEwAYQBiAGUAbAArAFAAYQByAGEAbQBlAHQAZQByACsAUABsAHUAZwBpAG4A&URL=https%3a%2f%2fwiki.jenkins-ci.org%2fdisplay%2fJENKINS%2fNodeLabel%2bParameter%2bPlugin> Will that work with old jobs, causing them to run on one of the new agent nodes instead of the master? Inquiring minds want to know! Thanks again in advance. Cheers Bruce -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
