[HEADS UP] Jenkins CI is broken after recent outage

[Jan Šťastný <js...@apache.org>]

Hello,

nothing in Jenkins works at the moment, infra team has restored Jenkins
jobs from a backup, which resulted in our case in any job we ever had in
Jenkins reappearing. This causes significant problems especially in PR
checks due to collisions.

Furthermore, to fix this we'd need to be able to delete and trigger jobs,
but currently there's a permission issue after the outage.

In conclusion, nothing coming from Jenkins should be trusted. In case of
urgent PRs, rely on GHA PR checks if available, or it might be a great time
to implement them where missing.

Once we're unblocked I am gonna put jenkins jobs in order and announce here.

Hello all,
adding followup on this matter:

Jenkins is back, permissions are back, so you can happily do what you used
to in the Jenkins. One drawback is that we needed to delete some folders,
recreate them and generate their content again in order to get rid of
unwanted items that were probably pulled out of backups.The result of this
recreation is that we lost build history in folders 'drools', 'kogito' and
'optaplanner'.  Sorry for the inconvenience!

Regards,
Martin C.
