Endpoint Details

Endpoint AddresslocalhostThe host address of this server.  Fixed value of localhost.

Base Directory

Yes

A working directory on the Endpoint used by FlexDeploy. ~ is not supported here.

Working directory under /var/tmp or /tmp folder is not recommended as administrators generally have cron jobs to purge files based on age and that will cause issues when plugin files are deleted. For example, Error: Could not find or load main class flexagon.fd.core.plugin.ExternalPluginServer will be encountered when plugin lib files are deleted.

JDK HomeYesThe JDK Home directory on the Endpoint. Not required if an endpoint is a Docker Host.
Source ScriptNoAn optional script executed right before plugins are executed on the endpoint. Some usages of this script include sourcing an environment file (ie: . $HOME/mfile.env)  or exporting a variable (ie: export FLEXAGON_FD_PLUGIN_JAVA_ARGS=”-Xmx1024m -Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/tmp”). Variables exported here will become available to plugin executions on this endpoint.

K8s ContextNoName of the configured K8s context
