(title
(en "Declarative offloading on Guix System and childhurds")
(fr "Déclaration du déchargement dans Guix System et childhurds"))
(body
(en "When configuring Guix System, it is now possible to declare
builds machines to offload to directly from the @code{operating-system}
declaration by specifying the @code{build-machines} field of
@code{guix-configuration}. When you do this, @command{guix system} generates
a @file{/etc/guix/machines.scm} file by concatenating the @code{(build-machine
@dots{})} expressions you specified.
This mechanism is used by @code{hurd-vm-service-type}, also known as
``childhurd'', to create virtual machines running the GNU/Hurd operating
system one can offload to, without additional configuration steps.
Run @command{info \"(guix) Daemon Offload Setup\"} for more info on
offloading; run @command{info \"(guix) Virtualization Services\"} for info on
@code{hurd-vm-service-type}.")
(fr "Dans sa configuration Guix System, il est désormais possible de
déclarer les machines de construction vers lesquelles se décharger directement
dans la déclaration @code{operating-system} en spécifiant le champ
@code{build-machines} de @code{guix-configuration}. Quand on fait cela,
@command{guix system} produit un fichier @file{/etc/guix/machines.scm} en
concaténant les expressions @code{(build-machine @dots{})} fournies.
Ce mécanisme est utilisé par @code{hurd-vm-service-type}, également appelé
« childhurd », pour créer des machines virtuelles faisant tourner le système
d'exploitation GNU/Hurd vers lesquelles se décharger, sans étape
supplémentaire de configuration.
Lancer @command{info \"(guix.fr) Réglages du déchargement du démon\"} pour
plus d'informations sur le délestage ; lancer @command{info \"(guix.fr)
Services de virtualisation\"} pour en apprendre sur
