Execute job on all the nodes with a certain label
Hello, I'm trying to use Jenkins as a remote execution tool. In case you're wondering why I'm using Jenkins and not some other tool, it's because I haven't found a tool for remote execution that provides: - multiple options for connecting to a machine - a web interface - easy configuration (very important from an administrative point of view) - no client/slave/agent install on the machines (you just need Java and you're all set from Jenkins' point of view) - dozens of notification systems - tons of useful plugins Anyway, back on track. I want to execute a command on all the nodes with a certain label. Is this possible? I'm not sure it is, but I'm missing something. I don't want to configure the matrix jobs to use individual labels since I'll have dozens of jobs, and lots of duplicated configuration. Plus the list will have to be updated periodically. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated :) _ Costin Caraivan

Have a look at this plugin: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/NodeLabel+Parameter+Plugin I think this should do what you want… regards Domi On 14.05.2012, at 16:48, Costin Caraivan wrote: Hello, I'm trying to use Jenkins as a remote execution tool.

Hello, Woohoo. I misread a part of the configuration and thought that it couldn't run concurrent builds. Apparently it can :) Thanks a lot!
