Virtual machine

If not configured explicitly to do otherwise, Hydra will specify localhost as the default build machine. By default, system features enabling builds to be performed in virtual machines like "kvm" or "nixos-test" are not enabled. Such jobs will be queued indefinitely. Those options can be activated as follows:

{
  nix.buildMachines = [
    { hostName = "localhost";
      system = "x86_64-linux";
      supportedFeatures = ["kvm" "nixos-test" "big-parallel" "benchmark"];
      maxJobs = 8;
    }
  ];
}
