To test the GitLab runner, execute it with the jacamar configuration:

...

As long as your GitLab runner is executed on Noctua, it will process the CI jobs from your project.

Concurrent CI job execution

There are multiple layers of concurrency in the runner configuration. You can define multiple [[runners]] sections to let Jacamar create multiple runners with different configurations, but this is not required for concurrency.

The concurrent variable at the top defines the total limit for all runners combined. Further, each runner has two variables in its section: limit and request_concurrency. Both limit the number of concurrent CI jobs a runner will execute.

For example, if you have 1 runner, set concurrent to 5, set limit to 0 to deactivate the limit variable and set request_concurrency to 5 to execute at most 5 CI jobs concurrently.

You can find more information in the respective documentation of Jacamar variables and Gitlab Runner variables.
