-----------------------------------------------------------------

In order to bypass this failing orchestration job, one can still trigger the following jobs manually: https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/view/DevStudio/view/DevStudio_9.0.mars/job/jbosstools-build-sites.aggregate.site_4.3.mars/ . On completion, that will trigger JBDS build, so there is nothing else to do than triggering this one and waiting for completion.
On https://jenkins.mw.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com/hudson/job/jbosstools-openshift_4.3.mars/ , I restored to downstream trigger of jbosstools-composite-install that will cascade aggregator and then product without additional effort. I don't know why this downstream trigger was removed.
I trigger a new build for openshift, that should be available in Ci builds automatically upon completion of the chain.

Looking at the big picture, I still believe the the composite-install job, which is supposed to allow minor optimizations (avoiding reaggregating when there was no change) actually save little time/CPU resources compared to always triggering aggregation. Moreover, it has often been identify as a source of issue in the build chain.
Since, the composite-install job performs an install operation which has similar cost to the one of pure-aggregation, I believe it would be more interesting to always aggragate content and to conditionally *publish* the aggregated repository depending on whether there were change (p2diff can check that). Once again, we're back to JBIDE-15388

> We have often seen old artifacts on nightly sites (mars and neon too). 
> It seems that the composite-install job [0], [1] is not reliable. So, the downstream JBT aggregate builds [2], [3] are not triggered automatically to pick up all new changes in the upstream JBT component site builds.
