This work includes creating reference images for the controller and the workers as well as the instructions for deployment. The goal of this task is to facilitate AB replication. 63527 1 konrad.scherer 2016-06-30 15:10:16 +0000 I manage the internal WindRiver Linux build cluster and a lot of my work overlaps with the AB. I have built up Puppet code for provisioning bare-metal builders that does things like setup ntp, install host packages, install monitoring, etc. I also have Dockerfiles and docker images which are used to build WRLinux. Using Docker in this way has increased our host coverage a lot while reducing the administration overhead by giving configuring all the builders in the same way. I use Mesos and a custom scheduler to automate the builds and share workloads efficiently across the entire cluster of machines. I use Docker to create a local test setup of the production environment for development and testing. It is important to have a system that scales up and down easily. I was hesitant to share this earlier because it was in early stages, but the system has matured and has been solid for over a year now. The cluster does over 2000 builds a day over 5 releases and 1500 configurations. It still has rough edges as infrastructure projects tend to have, but I would be happy to share any and all pieces of my work that you feel would be useful. 63537 2 benjamin.esquivel 2016-06-30 15:38:30 +0000 Konrad, you seem to be very close to what we're looking with this entry. The success of this task is measured by having short and concise instructions to replicate a simple AB setup. If you are a couple of steps ahead with this and you have time to write instructions for replicating it, would be very much appreciated. We would test them. 80184 3 joshuagloe 2018-04-10 03:02:17 +0000 Should be much simpler with the new model of using vanilla upstream buildbot with a repo containing configuration and extensions. 106313 4 randy.macleod 2026-07-23 15:25:49 +0000 Fixed by the bitbake-setup work. 106315 5 yoann.congal 2026-07-23 15:30:00 +0000 (In reply to Randy MacLeod from comment #4) > Fixed by the bitbake-setup work.
