Issue

• What is the difference between a worker with load type mp-build and build ?
• I add a new worker with load type build, and now Agents are not provisioned.

Environment

• CloudBees Jenkins Enterprise (CJE) < 1.3.1 - AWS/OpenStack/Anywhere

Resolution

build

The build load type is used for provisioning Agents with CloudBees Palace Cloud, Palace is the default Agent provisioning method since CJE 1.3.1

mp-build

The mp-build load type is used for provisioning Agents with Mesos Shared Cloud, it is deprecated as CJE now provide a better scalability model as well as a more flexible way to manage docker agent images across your cluster.

The recommendation is to migrate to the new Agent provisioning method, to do that you could follow this documentation

Palace, scalable agent scheduling framework for Mesos
