    Description

      After last update (not sure which one, everything worked last time on 4. nov 2016) pipeline job began to use local jenkins directory (c:/Users/jenkins/.jenkins) for workspaces completely ignoring settings set under: "Manage Jenkins / Worspace Root DIrectory" and "Manage Jenkins / Build Record Root Directory", which are configured as follow:

      Workspace Root Directory = d:/jenkins/ws/$

      {ITEM_FULLNAME}/work
      Build Record Root Directory = d:/jenkins/ws/${ITEM_FULLNAME}

      /builds

            I completely agree with zswanson on:

            Moreover, if the jenkins config has an option to set a workspace to a particular location than that location should be respected even on the master.

            The plugin should respect global Jenkins settings and use its values.

            And jglick I was trying to avoid going onto personalities, but as one of the lead developers of this plugin, please stop marking this issues as RESOLVED or DUPLICATE and find some time to understand why it is not working for everyone (I think previous posters explained it in details already).

            Because currently all the communications can be shortly described as: "We decided it to be this way. Accept it or get lost."

            From the description it appears to be a duplicate of the known issue which was recently fixed, so you just need to update your plugins.

            Quick question.. We are using Jenkins 2.121.3 (& planning to upgrade to 2.164.3). Can I use custom workspace in Multibranch/Script pipeline !?
