Mutibranch project plugin does not respect "Workspace Root Directory" global configuration

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      The multibranch project plugin always creates the workspaces to build the branches in "${JENKINS_HOME}/jobs/your-multi-branch-project/branches/${branchNameEncoded}/workspace", however our configuration has the workspaces on a different drive with much more space, so WORKSPACE is not on the same drive as JENKINS_HOME.

      This is configured in the global config->Workspace Root Directory (under advanced below Home Directory).

      Please use "${Workspace Root Directory}/${branchNameEncoded}/workspace" or something similar instead.

            will still retrieve the entire repository into the master's workspace directories for each Jenkinsfile it wants to read

            Not if you update workflow-multibranch and meet the conditions mentioned in its release notes. Anyway that is off topic here.

            IIUC the a master with zero executors will still retrieve the entire repository into the master's workspace directories for each Jenkinsfile it wants to read. I'm seeing this with Jenkins 2.19.4, Branch API Plugin 1.11.1, Git plugin 3.0.1.
