Examples

Read the examples of the build hosts file.

• Build hosts file that uses a listed host only if it is at least 75% idle:

  -idle 75
  mercury
  earth
  mars
  pluto

• Nesting of build hosts files:

  -idle 30
  einstein
  bohr
  fermi
  #include /usr/local/lib/planet.hosts

• Use an environment variable to specify where other build hosts files are located.

  #include ${BLDHOSTPATH}/build_hosts

• Use multiple -idle directives to control build access.

  # my machines
  -idle 10
  neon
  saturn
  # project build hosts
  #include ${BLDHOSTPATH)/dev_build_hosts 
  # other random hosts
  -idle 50
  bigzilla

  The project build hosts file looks like this:

  # The development project owns these machines
  -random
  chirp
  mew
  -idle 10
  growl
