• Work In Progress:

  • Lost access to publish releases for Crowd2 plugin
  • https://ci.jenkins.io/job/Infra/job/stories/ is not handling PRs

    • Caching running on the 3 clouds
    • Works (optin) with Linux
    • WiP on the pipeline library for windows
      • Issues with Maven on Windows (around settings.xml/basic auth)
    • Proposal: deliver the Linux part already
    • JFrog: they validated this task (makes sense and improve QoS for ci.j)
  • https://twitter.com/jenkins_release is many weeks behind
    • Nothing done: gotta try the draft helm chart
  • Keycloak performance horrific when looking up / modifying users
    • Stephane to work on the pgSQL migration to smooth the tasks for the team
  • update center json returning 404
    • Damien to ask help from Daniel after sec. release (do we need to do something on dynamic update centers)
  • Windows agents are soooooooooo slooooooooooooooooooow
    • Related to ACI stuff
    • Might need Docker image update / pipeline-library update
  • [INFRA-2754] Realign repo.jenkins-ci.org mission
    • JFrog meeting: validating the hypothesis with them
    • WiP on the JEP (draft) proposal
    • Daniel and Basil do not have availability to work with us on this one: only to give advise if required
  • Plugin documentation doesn't get updates
    *
  • RPM1004: Error retrieving metadata: Not Found
  • Can't able to get email for the password

    • Damien to work on it after weekly upgrade of infra.ci from Stephane
  • [ci.jenkins.io] collect datadog metrics for ephemeral VMs
    • Datadog dashboard currently being built and tested by Stephane (CPU, memory, etc.)
    • After some discussions with other contributors, it appears that the public dashboard does not allow dropdown / machine selection (only private dashboard)
    • Solution 1: accept that we cannot make it publicly available and document for maintainers how to ask infra team to get data
      • Proposal : add a specific issue template on helpdesk to request for agent metrics
    • Solution 2 (long term): Switch (or add) a public Grafana dashboard for that (which mean adding a prometheus colelction for ci.jenkins.io)
  • [pkg.jenkins.io,releases] Finish cleanup of mirrorbrain
    • Moving back to backlog

• New/Important:

  • Jenkins Mirror
  • Upgrade to Kubernetes 1.23
