Setting up a distributed build with the public version #1319

Closed zharpaz-bmc-com closed 1 year ago

Hi, I am trying to set up a distributed build with the public version of BuildXl. I have two questions:

  1. Is the cache functionality available with the public version?
  2. How can I get an example of command-line invocations, (with the configuration files) of a distributed build environment?

Thanks, Ziv

Hi Ziv,

Both of your questions are answered in issue #1310

Hi @mpysson , Thank you for your answer.

Is it possible to run a distributed build with the cache disabled? (So it will work with always performing the build?)

mpysson commented 1 year ago

Distributed builds use the cache for file transport between machines. So a distributed build will not currently work with the cache layer disabled.
