Jenkins is on the move.
I've asked for a Folder on the new system.
I am so glad we have a simple build setup!

Hi All,
This NOTICE is for everyone on builds.apache.org. We are migrating to a
new
Cloudbees based Client Master called https://ci-builds.apache.org. The
migrations of all jobs needs to be done before the switch off date of
15th
August 2020, so you have a maximum of 4 weeks.
There is no tool or automated way of migrating your jobs, the
differences in the platforms, the plugins and the setup makes it
impossible
to do in a safe way. So, you all need to start creating new jobs on
ci-infra.a.o and then , when you are happy, turn off your old builds on
builds.a.o.
There are currently 4 agents over there ready to take jobs, plus a
floating
agent which is shared amongst many masters (more to come). I will migrate
away 2 more agents from builds.a.o to ci-builds.a.o every few days, and
will keep an eye of load across both and adjust accordingly.
If needed, create a ticket on INFRA jira for any issues that crop up, or
email here on builds@a.o. there may be one or two plugins we need to
install/tweak etc.
We will be not using 'Views' at the top level, but rather we will take
advantage of 'Folders Plus' - each project will get its own Folder and
have
authorisation access to create/edit jobs etc within that folder. I will
create these folders as you ask for them to start with. This setup allows
for credentials isolation amongst other benefits, including but not
limited
to exclusive agents (Controlled Agents) for your own use , should you
have
any project targeted donations of agents.
As with other aspects of the ASF, projects can choose to just enable all
committers access to their folder, just ask.
We will re-use builds.apache.org as a CNAME to ci-builds.a.o but will
not
be setting up any forwarding rules or anything like that.
So, please, get started *now *on this so you can be sure we are all
completed before the final cutoff date of 15th August 2020.
Any questions - I expect a few (dozen :) ) - ask away and/or file INFRA
tickets.
Hadoop and related projects have their own migration path to follow, same
cut off date, Cassandra, Beam, CouchDB have already migrated and are
doing
very well in their new homes.
Lets get going ...
