Hi all,

Back in April, our server farm used for building had to leave its
hosting site (cf.
https://reactos.org/archives/public/ros-dev/2016-April/017775.html). A
single server was set up at the new site and I estimated to have our old
server farm back up by May or June.

Unfortunately, this still hasn't happened. Our server farm is still at
its old location and I cannot give a timeframe when it will finally be
shipped to the new location.

As we cannot wait forever for this to happen, I put up the old Windows
Home Server VM on our single new server and reintegrated it into
BuildBot ("Test WHS" builder).
Its performance won't match the former one for sure. Instead of 4GB of
RAM, it's currently at mere 1GB and it builds on HDD instead of
RAM-Disk. Nevertheless, it should be fully operational at least.

If this works out well, I'll see if I can also get our Win7 builder up
again. This would give us "Build GCCWin_x86", "Build MSVC_x64" and
"Build MSVC_x86".
I cannot resurrect the VMware and VBox testers right now though. This
will definitely need another machine. Will look after this in October.

Maybe we can also get a RAM upgrade for the existing machine to enable
building on RAM Disks again.


Cheers,

Colin
