Why jenkins doesn't assign jobs to an agent with more resources

Hi all,

I have a cluster with 20 agents, all of them are able to run 8-9 dockers. In my understanding after installing "least load" plugin, it should take agent1-docker1 and then, agent2-docker1 but why i am seeing is that it is using agent1-docker1, agent1-docker2. So I have a node overloaded and 19 more doing nothing.

Any clue?

Hi,

Some basic questions;

- what Jenkins version?

- has it ever work for you?

- you mention 8-9 dockers per agent, is that being controlled using "Number of executors" being set for each agent?

2.319.3 (now), but I have been tested several versions

No. Even with least-load plugin

I have 1 executor per agent, and I set the amount of dockers running in the setup of the plugin (docker-plugin)
