| # Gerrit CI: How to keep logs forever on Jenkins |
| |
| We use Jenkins for verifying Gerrit patch sets under multiple |
| configurations and conditions. The logfiles produced are a |
| golden source of information. To keep Jenkins healthy and responsive, |
| we needed to remove them all which sounded quite silly: would |
| you just burn your cash because your wallet is too small? |
| |
| Using the Logstash plugin and correlating the logs with Gerrit |
| review data I have managed to keep everything and *forever* |
| enabling a much richer data analysis and materialize back |
| the logs with the same URL referenced in the Gerrit changes. |
