[JIRA] (JENKINS-1878) Ability to move job to top of queue

Andrew Lawrence reopened an issue

The Accelerated Build Now plugin doesn't fully address the problem. It can't help you if you want to increase the priority of a job that was queued noninteractively (and can't easily be started manually). Usually when we want to have a job jump to the head of the queue it's a job that was queued by the Gerrit Trigger Plugin, and there's no way to trigger one of those with Accelerated Build Now. Just adding more slaves would be great, but each of the slaves in this case represents a very expensive set of test hardware. Being able to bump an existing job to the head of the queue is still a missing and needed feature.

Re: Ability to move job to top of queue This is a feature we would really like to have as well.  Similar to Andrew our slave nodes represent test hardware so we can't just add more.  Beyond that a run on these machines can take over an hour at times.   We use the Priority Sorter Plugin to help sort the queue initially based on a couple priority groups.  But there are often times when we need to have a high priority build moved to the top of the queue and this feature should allow for that.

Re: Ability to move job to top of queue Very important for us as well. I don't believe the Accelerated Build Now plugin works.

Re: Ability to move job to top of queue

Is the only way to get around this to cancel all queued items? How is this not a feature?

Re: Ability to move job to top of queue

+1 This is rare use case for us, but when it happens it is usually in response to a developer begging me to help them meet a deadline with testing & delivering a fix, but finding the job with their changes behind a very long queue. Once in a while we get a wave of triggered jobs when an underlying database schema is updated and that unlucky developer may be looking at unacceptable delays.  My work around is to hijack a node, set it to only run jobs with that node as a label, then modify they job to use the label for that node. That is imperfect and annoying, but usually good enough. We would love the ability to be able to right click the triggered build and select "Move to front of queue".
