System Administration

This chapter for system administrators of Jenkins servers and nodes. It will cover system maintenance topics including security, monitoring, and backup/restore.

Users not involved with system-level tasks will find this chapter of limited use. Individual sections may assume knowledge of information from previous sections, but such assumptions will be explicitly called out and cross-referenced.

If you are a Jenkins administrator and want to know more about managing Jenkins nodes and instances, see Managing Jenkins.
