Question

I am working on a POC currently using Jenkins as CI server. I have setup jobs based on certain lifecycle stages such as test suite and QA. I have configured these jobs to become scheduled builds based on a cron expression.

I have a request to know how to find out what the next scheduled build will be in Jenkins based on the jobs i have created. I know what was the last succesful build, the last failed but i dont know the next proposed build. Any clues!? Or is there a view plugin for this? Sorry if this is a strange request but i need to find out.

Also i need to discover if there is an issue when more than one job is running concurrently what will happen. I would have understood this is not an issue. I do not have any slaves setup, i only have the master.

Jenkins version: 1.441

I found the first issue!

So can you help me on the second question please? Is there any issue with more than one job building concurrently?

Thanks,
Shane.

Answer 1

For the next execution date take a look at Next Execution Plugin here.

For your second question .
The number of build you can run concurrently is configurable in the jenkins server params(http:///configure : executors param).
If the number of executor is reached each new job triggered will be add in jenkins’s execution queue and will be run when one running job will end
