Synchronization of remote agent capabilities
When an existing remote agent reconnects to the server, its capabilities are synchronized with the capabilities defined in Bamboo. A remote agent’s capabilities can be defined as follows (in order of priority):
manually in the Bamboo web interface or the REST API
in the
bamboo-capabilities.propertiesfileautomatically detected by the agent
If a capability is defined in several places, the source with the highest priority will take precedence. For example, if an agent’s capability has been defined both in Bamboo and in the bamboo-capabilities.properties file, the value of the capability defined in Bamboo will be used. You can check the source of any given capability under the Capabilities tab on the remote agent's summary page.
Modifying the bamboo-capabilities.properties file requires restarting the agent in order to synchronize its capabilities with Bamboo.
