Jenkins switch startup type to disabled after successful bui

So, I'm looking to start Ranorex after a successful build on Jenkins.

But our build requires Automatic startup and Ranorex requires that to be disabled.

So, any ideas how to set Jenkins startup type to 'disabled' after a successful build?


Thanks,

Wilson Logan.

Hi,

Could you please be a bit more specific about this:
...our build requires Automatic startup and Ranorex requires that to be disabled.

What you mean by automatic start? As far as I know, all Ranorex needs is that the Jenkins server/slave must not be auto started and run as a windows service! But of course, you you can auto-start Jenkins during computer restart, if you mean that? Jenkins could be autostarted using a batch file, located in windows startup folder. However, you should not run tests on the same machine, on which you run Jenkins master server. A better idea is to configure at least one Jenkins slave (VM), on which you should start your tests.
