This Jenkins plugin allows throttling jobs and/or pipeline blocks. It can also be used to throttle the initial SCM checkout.
See the settings below.
Throttling can also be exited with the Exit Throttle build step.
This plugin can also be used in Pipelines:
enterThrottle {
...
}
Any code within the enterThrottle block becomes subject to throttling.
For example:
stages {
stage('Checkout') {
steps {
enterThrottle {
checkout scm
}
}
}
}
}
| Setting | Use |
|---|---|
| Manage > Configure System > Timeout after exiting throttle (ms) | A timeout in milliseconds before another job that is subject to throttling and/or another enterThrottle block can run after another job or enterThrottle block has stopped throttling. |
| Job > Enter throttle before running | Begin throttling this job before it has started running. When checked, this effectively throttles the job queueing and initial SCM checkout. |
| Job > Exit throttle after checkout | If checked, the job will no longer be blocking other (throttled) jobs from running after its initial SCM checkout. Check this if you only want to throttle the initial SCM checkout, but not the rest of the job. |
