OK, seems like Nick beat us to it in JBIDE-24763:

This PR should do 3 things:
a) reduce on-disk footprint from 4 x 3.5G to 1 x 3.5G for the downloaded AS/WF/EAP
runtimes, by reusing itests/target/requirements/ folder (rather than
itests/target/requirements + 3 x itests/*/target/requirements/ folders)
b) prevent downloading the above runtimes when running the itests/pom.xml; instead
downloads (or recycling from ~/.m2) will be done during the specific itests/*/pom.xml
plugins, so we don't have to prefetch everything before starting the first plugin
c) clean the itests/target/requirements folder before fetching (or copying from local)
runtimes, to ensure the folder is clean and ready for use before each test plugin run

Key: JBIDE-24938
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-24938
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Bug
Components: server
Affects Versions: 4.5.1.AM2
Reporter: Martin Malina
Assignee: Martin Malina
This job is failing on Windows:
https://dev-platform-jenkins.rhev-ci-vms.eng.rdu2.redhat.com/job/server.i...
It's because it runs out of disk space.
The windows instances have (I believe) 30GB of disk space. This is set up in our
openstack instance by eng-ops:
https://ci-rhos.centralci.eng.rdu2.redhat.com/dashboard/
If we wanted more space, we would need to ask eng ops to change this. But it's
probably the same for all other users, so I don't think they would change it easily.
And in any case, it should be enough.
The main thing is that we need to reduce the space the tests are using.
They download all the runtimes via the itests pom:
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-server/blob/master/as/itests/pom...
The main problem is that this happens 4 times:
3.5G ./org.jboss.tools.as.management.itests/target/requirements
3.5G ./org.jboss.tools.as.itests/target/requirements
3.5G ./target/requirements
3.5G ./org.jboss.tools.as.ui.bot.itests/target/requirements
Fortunately this doesn't mean that all the servers are really downloaded 4 times -
they are downloaded once and stored in the local maven download cache. But then the zips
are copied over for each of the modules and unzipped.
So, there are several options:
a) Get rid of the zips once they're unzipped - that would save half the space.
Unfortunately the download plugin does not support this:
https://github.com/maven-download-plugin/maven-download-plugin
b) Delete the requirements dir for each module at the end of the maven module lifecycle.
This might be doable, needs investigating.
c) Change the overall setup so that only one download is needed for all the tests - i.e.
the child modules don't inherit the download plugin call, but instead use the
downloaded runtimes from the higher pom (itests)
