Run a task before svn check-out

I would like to run a task (stop a running vm machine) before Jenkins starts the check-out.

The reason is: VM blocks access to some files I have to update via subversion.

Is this possible?

There are two plugins for controlling virtual machines, depending on whether you are using VirtualBox or VMWare.

I'm quite sure you can configure the pre-build step to be "Suspend" as shown in the images, at least for VMWare.

Have a look at How do I trigger another job from hudson as a pre-build step?. I think this has been asked before there.

Edit your project and set: Configure M2 Extra Build Steps --> Execute shell --> Type in whatever you'd like to do. For example:

# Wipe the local repository before each build.
rm -rf $WORKSPACE/.repository
