Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "For example if the Jenkins system is configured to utilize a context path of http://localhost:8080/jenkins"

A block of code is set as follows:

<arguments>-Xrs –Xmx512m -Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -jar "%BASE%\jenkins.war" --httpPort=8080</arguments>

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$Jenkins-Mirror>sudo su – root
$Jenkins-Mirror>cat /tmp/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
