This page is intended to complement the instructions for Configuring Elastic Instances to use EBS. It lists different methods of for populating your EBS volume, depending on the data you wish to have available in your snapshot.
On this page:
Maven 2 repository
|
If you want to populate your EBS snapshot with your Maven repository data, we recommend that you upload it via SCP (see step 5c of the 'Creating your first EBS snapshot' section in Configuring Elastic Instances to use EBS). In most cases, you will have a modified settings.xml file if you are using Maven 2. This means that you will need to upload this file and Maven repository data to your EBS volume, rather than populating your volume by running a build. |
Ant repository
|
If you want to populate your EBS snapshot with your Ant repository data, we recommend that you run a build on an elastic agent with a blank EBS volume attached to the elastic instance (see step 2 of the 'Updating your EBS snapshot' section in Configuring Elastic Instances to use EBS). This is a faster and more reliable method of populating your volume, if you are using Ant. |
