Questions regarding "Restrict the Maximum Number of In-progress and Pending Builds" build precondition
We want to limit the number of active builds that occur per build definition and had some questions regarding using the "Restrict the Maximum Number of In-progress and Pending Builds" build precondition.
1) Is this count per build definition? per team area (e.g "RPT Dev Team," "RPT Maintenance Team")? per project area? 2) Does this affect personal builds? Is there a documentation that describes the build preconditions you can point me to? Thanks! |

Hi Gennie, I could not find any existing document to explain the "Restrict the Maximum Number of In-progress and Pending Builds" precondition. From my testing result, the count of the build request takes effect per build definition including personal build. Hope the information is helpful. Comments

Hi Gennie,
Yes, this is a setting after you enable the precondition.
And from my testing, the precondition also count personal build.
For your requirement, as you are using "i" build, what's the build engine do you use? If you are using Build Agent, is it possible to add some limitation on build server side?
