Warning: The new version of this plugin is marked as incompatible with the installed version.

[A, Ramkumar]

Hi,

 

After upgrading to Jenkins version 2.361.3, below warning is displayed for “SSH Build Agents” plugin.

 

We do not want to upgrade the plugin below thinking it may break the existing Linux executor configured on Jenkins. Is that true ? if yes, Can you suggest a way to upgrade the plugin to latest version ?

 

 

Thanks,

Ram.

I recommend you try looking at the plugin documentation. If you have done so already, what did you find?

Going through the release notes, starting from the version you have to the latest, there is one breaking change documented:

Yes, the warning is because the change to stop supporting Java 8, the only way to warning you about breaking changes is to mark the plugin as incompatible with previous versions, this should force you to read the release notes and check what are the changes about, if you are in Jenkins 2.361 and your agents have Java 11 in the path it is safe to update
