[jbosstools-dev] Beta3 Status :: PLEASE READ :: Disabled jobs, misconfigured slaves, OOM failures, & "package uses conflict" blocks installer respin!

[Nick Boldt]

Because of increasingly long lags between jobs, and a bit more usage 
coming up next week with EAP, BRMS, and SOA all competing for slaves, 
I've disabled a number of non-critical jobs.

** IF YOU CHANGE SOMETHING IN A COMPONENT THAT'S DISABLED, PLEASE 
RE-ENABLE THE JOB! **

(or let me/Mickael/Max/Denis know so we can turn it back on for you)

---

We're also seeing some *build failures* due to slaves which don't have 
*Xvfb* installed on them (I've reported this to ci-issues@ but it's the 
weekend so this might affect us respinning Beta3a - hopefully not!)

I'm also seeing a *new problem with memory (heap) and garbage collection 
(GC)* affecting the all-in-one .continuous and .tests jobs:

Here's the list of *newly disabled jobs*.

== JBT 3.3.0.Beta3 Core / JBDS 5.0.0.Beta3 Core ==

https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_stable_branch.component--* 
(these will stay disabled until someone tells me a respin is needed!)

== Other Core Jobs ==

https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_trunk.parent/
https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_trunk.target-platform/
https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/devstudio-5.0_trunk.target-platform/
https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_trunk.requirements-bootstrap/
https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_trunk.component--* 
(only the following are still enabled for now: 	tests, common, seam, 
vpe, ws)
https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_trunk.tests/
https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_trunk.webtools.aggregate/ 
(not needed until there's a respin of JMX, Archives, or AS)

== SOA Jobs ==

Note: some of these are deprecated as Doug creates new ones [1], [2], 
and therefore won't need to be re-enabled.

https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_stable_branch.soa-tooling.tests/
https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_trunk.soa-tooling.tests/
https://hudson.qa.jboss.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-3.3_trunk.soatests.aggregate/

Anyway, fingers crossed we'll have clean builds by Sunday night and can 
push out a Beta3a respin for QE in time for Monday morning.

Current *blocking issue* involves a cryptic message in the installer 
build about "Package uses conflict". *See 
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-2116.* Frankly, I'm stumped here, 
so if anyone who's taken the time to read this far down wants to try to 
figure out what package(s) are exporting conflicting versions of 
upstream deps, please feel free to take a crack at fixing the issue.
