2

for those who don’t have access to runbooks. I mean asking for a friend. What does it do?

3

Even those of us in the meeting who have access to the runbooks did not know what it does. Research shows that it is used to calculate the distribution of job types (Pipeline vs. Freestyle), etc.

4

Is it actually used though? May have just been setup but never finished?

The run book says just TODO add content @halkeye

5

Mark and Tim already answered that the runbook is empty.

I’ll take care of the links next time: I did not thought about the link that could be private :sweat_smile:
