Does anybody has an idea why all VMs on vmhost0.oxylos.org have gone down?

I started vm094,095,096,097. Any others (not supervised by nagios) to
start? I don't which others should be running.

This will probably need some changes in the poms (do we have a kind of
sandbox at ASF to test this?).
When setting it up it should be cleary(!) documented :-)

You're talking about the maven generated project sites [1] ?

IIRC we use some cross-compilers to build ADS installers (for windows?).
They are hardly installed (or will be installed) on the ASF machines.

nothing, ...)

Infra has set up some machines with Continuum, as some sponsor 
(specifically, Yahoo) gave some servers to the ASF.

I will check with infra and come back to you.

yep.

There is something else I think we must discuss, it's the release 
process. ATM, Alex only is capable of release ADS. I know that it's 
mainly because I'm lazzy and don't want to jump into the process, as it 
requires a deep knowledge in maven, but I also think this is a good idea 
that any committer can do the release.

There is some page on the wiki describing the release process, I just 
don't know how accurate they are.

Last, not least, we have some modules we don't compile in apacheds, may 
be it's time to move them to he sandbox or the dormant projects if we 
don't want to get them built, and we also have some clients (kerberos 
and ldap) which are not part of the global build, making them lagging, 
as they depend on trunk. I spent a few hours this week-end trying to get 
the kerberos client compiling, but it's a bit more complicated than I 
thought, due to the JNDI removal we did.
I would rather get those guys into the main build.

Maybe we need a good discussion about all those aspects :
- CI on The ASF machines
- XRef and metrics on The ASF machines
- Build and dormant modules
- Releases and packaging (javadoc, sources...)

wdyt ?

I could startup the VMs again, but this wouldn't explain why they are
down/if there's a special reason for them to be down.

I thought that at that time the reason to do it on oxylos was to take
some load of the ASF machines (at least I thought this was what Alex
mentioned).
Do you know if the have a sandbox to test the configurations and build
commands?

This would also make it easier/possible to have the snapshots deploy on
the ASF snapshot repository.

Still down this morning. I don't have access to those machine. I will 
ask Alex what's going on.

Otherwise, I think we should rely on ASF machines for things like 
continuus build. Infra has set up a continuum instance on their managed 
servers, maybe it's time to move our builds there ?

We also have a link on Oxylos for our source xref and reports, we may 
ask infra about a place to store those infos on some infra servers too.

wdyt ?
