Do you have the env-inject plugin installed?

Found a work around ('Linux node').

To actually get the node name I am using
def nodeName = "hostname".execute().text.replace('\n', '')

node name does not have to be equal to hostname, but the hostname is just enough for me so I could locilize the node I am currently using ;-)

Cheers!

NODE_NAME is defined for AbstractBuild (freestyle, etc.), not Workflow currently. It could not be defined using the same system by which flow builds pick up general build variables (BUILD_URL) etc. because there is not a unique node for a flow build. You could open an RFE for ExecutorStepExecution to define NODE_NAME for use by steps inside node {}.
