Some things you need to understand about the promoted builds:

The promotions are kind of like 2nd class citizens in the Jenkins job 
population: They are subservient to their parent job and they do not have their 
own workspace.

This means that you should not do anything in the promotion actions that uses 
the workspace. Or if you do, you have the responsibility of synchronizing the 
workspace access with the promotion and the parent job.

If your promotion actions need to use a workspace, it is often easier to just 
trigger a build of another job. This other job would be a normal job, which 
means it would have its own workspace and it would be safe to use it.
