      and
      Jenkins 1.497 on SUSE Linux

      I have a job that allows parallel runs which frequently leads to a number of workspaces being creted.

      After running it a few times I have the following file structure:

      jenkins-home/jobs/job1/
      workspace
      workspace@2
      workspace@3
      workspace@4

      If I run "Wipe Out Workspace" it seems as if Jenkins chooses a random directory of the 4 to wipe out (possibly based on which one was used last). So sometimes it will remove the "workspace" directory, and leave the other 3 and sometimes it will remove one of the others (like workspace@2). It never seems to remove all of them though.

          Is it reproduced with a recent Jenkins version?

          This is how 'Wipe Out Workspace' works, it deletes the workspace that's shown on the UI, which is usually the one corresponding to the latest build.
