Had the same issue. As a workaround, I'd created a function like:
def login(String ip, skey) {
remote=[:]
remote.name='the remote server'
remote.host="${ip}"
remote.user='jenkins'
remote.allowAnyHosts = true
remote.identityFile="{skey}"
return remote
}
Set the environment variables:
environment {
SSH_HOST1=credentials('host1')
SSH_HOST2=credentials('host2')
}
And then used the function in the steps with corresponding values like:
stage('Test') {
steps {
login('10.0.51.145', env.SSH_HOST1)
sshCommand remote: remote, command: "ip a"
}
Works fine for me.
