Is it possible to share a worksapce beteen to configuration ?
So when checkout operations are done on the disctinct configuration it's doesn't refresh the workspace from scratch ?

Thanks !

It should be fine as long as you make sure that involved configurations do not run in the same time.

Robin I tried it but looks like i'm seeing something odd :

What I usually do in a configuration :
- Have a chekout step
- Trigger a different configuration that builds a specific product with the same node

Usually it works fine, but in this context the triggered build (which doesn't have any repository step)
displays this error :

10:29:22,053 INFO  - Getting changes of '********' since build '46500'...
10:29:22,059 INFO  - Updating client spec of 'qb-********'...
10:29:22,157 WARN  - Client 'qb-********' has files opened; use -f to force switch.
10:29:22,263 INFO  - Executing post-execute action...
10:29:22,263 ERROR - Step 'master' is failed: Failed to run command: p4 -p XXXXXX -u bin-mtp -P ****** -c qb-******** client -i


(by the way the perforce doesn't have any file opened)

This is odd. Please disable change recording in advanced setting of the triggered configuration to see if the issue still happens.

Thanks Robin, your suggestion made me realised this configuration had a "Snapshot taking" script defined... and it was not handled properly in this context
