    Description

      I've configured a Build-Job which copies artifacts from multiple other jobs and assembles a bundle.

      The build-step "Copy artifacts from another project" is used - Fingerprint Artifacts is enabled at every of those steps.
      At Job Notifications => Advanced Keep the build logs of dependencies is also enabled.

      I'd like to trigger this downstream-Build manually.... but if I disable ALL Build Triggers and trigger manually a Build via Build now, no Builds in Upstream-Builds are locked. So the build logs of the dependencies will be discarded according to Log-Rotation-Setting. (Keep the build logs of dependencies does not work here properly in my opinion)

      If I enable Build after other projects are built and enter the Upstream Jobs there, then some "padlock"-Icons appear in the Upstream-Builds.... regardless if the downstream-job was triggered manually or via an upstream-build.

          I cannot get why you think that is an issue of copyartifact.
          Please clarify what the issue of copyartifact is.

          Will "Copy Artifact" cause a true upstream/downstream-relationship between builds?

          Does it also if I manually trigger a build which copies artifacts from other builds?

          "Keep logs ..." checks only dependencies of downstream projects.
          That means you need to define triggers for the downstream projects.

          Yes.
          Rlationships between builds are always recorded as fingerprints.
          Unfortunately "Keep logs..." checks only when there're project-level relationships.
