Automatic authorization and termination of cloud agents

Hi,

I have two issues with my new cloud plugin, which I would appreciate some help with:

1. For the bundled cloud plugins, started cloud agents are detected as "virtual" and automatically authorized. In building my own cloud plugin, I don't see this behavior, I need to manually authorize the agents as they are started. Do I need to do something special with the agent images that I am starting? Or have I missed something in my code?

2. I have set "Terminate instance after each build" on my cloud profile. However, my code doesn't receive a call to the terminate method after a cloud agent has finished a build. I tried to also set CloudInstanceUserData.setAgentRemovePolicy(CloudConstants.AgentRemovePolicyValue.RemoveAgent) in my code, but that did not help.

Thanks!

Hi, 

1. To have agent authorized automatically TC needs to recognize it as the agent it started. There are two methods that are responsible for that:

jetbrains.buildServer.clouds.CloudType#canBeAgentOfType - but you should implement CloudClientFactory

and

jetbrains.buildServer.clouds.CloudInstance#containsAgent - here you should decide whether agent matches the certain instance.

2. Please see here: https://teamcity-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/205425110-CloudClientEx-terminateInstance-not-called-when-build-finished
