The Jenkins book is correct, but the terminology can be misleading. Artifacts and build results will indeed be stored on the Jenkins master. However, "build results" include only success/failure, console log, and other things Jenkins and your plugins use to perform their functions. "Artifacts" will only include those files specifically designated as artifacts in "Archive the artifacts" under post-build steps. Any other files in the workspace will not be transferred. So although you may think of various files created by your build as artifacts, Jenkins has to be told which ones you want to archive (store on the master).

No, there is no NFS setup between master and server.

That's indeed the case.


Are you sure Jenkins does not copy the artifacts created in a job automatically from slave to master? I read differently in chapter 11 (Distributed Builds) in a book named "Jenkins - The Definitive Guide", author John Ferguson:

"In all cases, the fact that a build job is being run on a slave, and how that slave is managed, is transparent for the end-user: the build results
and artifacts will always end up on the master server."
