Removing build associated files on Linux from Windows Jenkins

[Ioannis Moutsatsos]

I have a job that uploads user data on a Linux server where it gets processed (ssh remote execution build step). Results (artifacts) are subsequently downloaded and archived on the windows Jenkins server.

How can I delete the user data on the Linux server when  their associated Jenkins build is deleted?

Jenkins obviously deletes the archived artifacts, but I can't think of a good way to also trigger the cleanup of the remote data on Linux.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

Must be missing something. Why can't you just:
* upload files
* process them
* download resulting files
* clean up everything

In the same go?

Cheers

Good question! If we were using the intermediate files (on Linux) just for that build, we could certainly do what you are suggesting.

In our use patterns the intermediate results can be reused by several downstream jobs. As a result we don't want to delete them at the end of the first build that uses them.

Thank you for the feedback!
