Hi folks,

Can I get script customized for my issue; disconnecting a windows slave connected through JNLP & reconnecting it again.

Thanks & Regards,

Sridevi

Hi everyone,

This script will not help for windows slave connected through JNLP I think because if the slave is offline, how can the job be run on the slave. If anyone has any suggestion for this please help me. I want the script to be run on windows slave (disconnecting & reconnecting a windows slave connected through JNLP using Jenkins job).

Thanks & Regards,

can i get this script customized for disconnecting a slave permanently??

Regards,
Priyanka

If you experience issues with constantly connecting & disconnecting node, this is due to java version. Check which java your jenkins use - the node has to use the same version of java for running slave.jar.

Hi,
How can get the jenkins api as mentioned in curl url.

I matched the java version, problem of slave.jar disconnection still exists. happens a log in packer build
