Re: Clustered Maven?

[Rick Mangi]

Well no, not necessarily. You could just put the project descriptors on 
each machine so maven would know which SCM to connect to for each 
project. It would then download src just for the projects you are 
building on each machine. I'm not sure what the minimum requirements 
are for this in terms of which files you need, but I imagine just 
project.xml, maven.xml and project.properties. This is where 
build.properties comes in very handy. You can specify machine specific 
overrides there.

I'd look at the tools Vincent mentions as well. I haven't used any of 
them myself.

Not really a newbie question at all... actually a very interesting
question.
I don't believe there is any built in functionality for this but you
could definitely do it with a set of shell scripts and rsh. Many many
years ago I did a similar thing with make files,  rsh to spawn the
builds onto the remote machines and expect to analyze the output. It
worked amazingly well spawning nightly builds on a dozen different OS
flavors, correlating the output into a master build report.

Hi all,
Sorry if this a complete newbie question. I've perused some of the
docs and Googled and I'm not seeing an answer.
I am interested in setting up a group of Maven boxes that can all
build a set of projects. I'd like to have a front-end proxy/manager
accept build requests and farm them out to one of the Maven boxes.
This type of configuration gives you a level of failover.
Does Maven
have a similar capability?
If it doesn't, could you trick it by using a common network
share to
hold the local workspaces? This would make all the local files
available to both machines? If the proxy/manager were smart
enough to
not issue build requests for the same project to multiple machines,
would Maven stomp on itself?
Thanks!
Jared
