humm.. really there isn't a paramenter to pass to jenkins that tells it where to do the build? oh well.. then probably, as you advice, the best option is to run the build on another executor, may it be on the same server, elsewhere or on the HPC cluster.. Thank you very much for your help. Best regards.
