| Selected By default, the Agent serves as a Helper machine. | Max Helper's Cores To Be Used | The maximum number of cores on the Agent Helper machine that can be used for a build execution. | -1 The -1 value means that all the cores of this Agent machine will be used by the Coordinator for a task distribution. | Number Of Licensed Cores | The number of cores on the Agent machine that will be allocated licenses to participate in a build execution. Note: If there are not enough licenses in the license pool, not all the cores will automatically receive licenses. | -1 The -1 value means that all the cores of this Agent will receive licenses, if available. By default, once an Agent connects to the Coordinator, the Coordinator automatically allocates licenses to the Agent according to the number of cores it has, unless there are no sufficient licenses in the license pool. | Max Initiator's Cores To Be Used | The maximum number of cores that can be used by the Agent when acting as the Initiator of a build. | -1 The -1 value means that all the cores of this Agent will be used for a build execution. | Initiator | Max builds to preserve in DB | The maximum number of previous builds that can be stored in the database of the Build History. Once the number of builds in the database reaches this value, the oldest builds are deleted automatically. Note: Builds that were excluded from the auto deletion procedure through the Toggle Auto Delete action, are not affected by this value, and will not be deleted even when this limit is reached. | 50 | Minimum local cores for build | The minimum number of available cores required to start a new build using the ib_console command. Note: It is recommended not to change this value to less than 4. | 4 | Build avoidance cache size (GB) | The size of the build avoidance cache. | 15GB | Max ib_console Executions | The maximum number of builds, which run using the ib_console command, that are allowed to run concurrently. Note: The actual number can be limited by the number of cores available on this Agent machine, and the value of the Minimum local cores for build. | 10 ib_console instances |
