Is there a way in Jenkins to prevent jobs from executing if a another job that it is not dependent on is already running ? I didn't see any options like that in the build section. in other words, I want to hold a job from running while another job that it is not dependent on is already running.

I'm running Jenkins 1.625.2 on Windows Server 2008.

Depending on your need you might also want to try:
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Throttle+Concurrent+Builds+Plugin

This allows you to configure a category for each project and prevent executing jobs in that category to run in paralel (either globaly or on a single node).
