Option to mark a phase/job as non-blocking/asynchron

XMLWordPrintable

      Have a option like the "disable job" option to mark a phase/job as
      e.g.

      • non-blocking
      • asynchron
      • non-waiting

      This phase/job is executed in normal manner of the pipeline but does not block the execution cycle of the surrounding multijob.

      For example:
      A multijob M with three phases:

      Phase 1: A
      Phase 2: B
      Phase 3: C + D

      M has several post-builds (with conditions). B,C,D are multijobs itself.
      C is a multijob containing jobs (e.g. maintenance jobs), which can take very long. This job can be executed asynchron, so that the surrounding multijob M can finish an execute it's post builds and a result can be generated.
      The result of C is not important for the result of M, but should be shown within the pipeline of M.
