nodelabel parameter plugin configuration questions

[Katie Outram]

I have a build flow plugin configuration for my build job in jenkins(main-build-job).     I want to make sure that my build occurs on one of two machines so I installed the nodelabel parameter plugin.   My build flow is

 

build ("joba.sh", PARENT_BUILD_ID : build.properties.environment['BUILD_ID'])

parallel (
        {
           build ("jobb.sh", EnvVarFile : bParent.build.properties.environment['ENV_VAR_FILE'])
        },
        { 
           build ("jobc.sh", EnvVarFile : bParent.build.properties.environment['ENV_VAR_FILE'])
        },
        { 
           build ("jobd.sh", EnvVarFile : bParent.build.properties.environment['ENV_VAR_FILE'])a
         }

)

 

My NodeParameter plugin is set on the main job (main-build-job) that executes the steps above with configuration settings of

default node:   MachineA, MachineB

possible node:  MachineA, MachineB

Allow multi node selection for concurrent builds

Ignore offline nodes

 

When my main job (main-build-job) executes(the job that calls the build flow), it runs on Machine A.      My next job (joba.sh) is executing on a totally different node (Machine X).   I stop both jobs that are running at that point.

 

I'm guessing I have missed a configuration setting somewhere or I've missed something in my understanding of this plugin.     Can anyone point me in the right direction to so that all of my jobs (main-build-job, joba, jobb, jobc, jobd) all execute on the same node?

 

Thanks!

 

 

"Execute concurrent builds" and "Allow multi node selection for concurrent builds" only make sense together!
