[Buildbot-devel] How to detach a buildslave

Hello,

is there any way to detach a build slave, i.e. to let it finish current
jobs, then exit.

The background is that I have a dual boot machine (Windows + Linux), that
is really powerful, and should carry the tests as much as possible. Yet,
when I mean to reboot it to Windows, I seem to have to wait for Linux jobs
to finish.

On an idea level, I would have an xmlrpc interface, that influences the
scheduling decisions on the master to not use that slave.

Without that, I am just going to have "interrupted" test results.

Any idea, anything I am missing?

Yours,
Kay
