windows1 broken
I guess the river-qa job was the straw that broke the camels back:
Cannot lock working copy
'C:\hudson\hudson-slave\workspace\River-QA\category\url\jdk\JDK 1.6
(latest)\label\Windows\qa\harness\configs\jeri\norm': There is not
enough space on the disk

Right, that was what I tried to say as well :-) Again, not optimal,
please look into a different solution.

Wait, i havent told you everything. 66 workspaces PER machine
(solaris||ubuntu||windows||osx||freebsd).

Sounds like the perfect argument for a dedicated slave :-)

Right, having 66 copies of the workspace on different machines sound
less than optimal. Would it be possible to divide these categories in
some other way in order to maintain one or a few workspaces?

River has a normal build, and a QA framework. This QA is a lengthy
process taking more than 22 hours, where the river networking
environment is tested. Whe have to wait for a long time to see the
failure results of our changes. The categories bundle the single tests
together in order to test 1 specific aspect of river. We currently have
1496 test setups in 66 categories. Whe have noticed that the different
machines produce different failures. The purpose of the matrix project
type fits this setup perfectly. Well, of course except for potential
scalability problems. :-)

That sounds a bit hefty. Perhaps the full River-QA build had not been
yet been created before it ran out of disc. Agreed, this will likely
be a problem.

Could you describe what's the purpose of the "categories" defined in
the build config?

It will create 66 workspaces per machine. Are you sure?

My thinking was, that only 1 workspace per machine would be created.
That turns out not to be the case. :-(

I don't use matrix builds myself so I do not have any experience.

How would this help?

I'm merely asking for permission and advice. :-)

That means river-qa has to scale down on its size. The problem is that
the matrix project uses a separate workspace for every variant. Any
ideas how to fix it? Can we get a custom workspace path on every machine
(the same)?

The River QA takes as much space as all the other builds on that slave
combined. That said, I've cleaned up some disc and restarted the slave
so we should be fine for some time.
