Hi Prashant,
If you use Cloudbees autoscaling plugin to provision your VMWare virtual
machine (ServerB) then the IPAddress is available as a job environment
variable[1].
If you use the OSS vSphere cloud plugin[2] then the ip address is
available for certain commands - but I think you will need to controll
the pooling of the VMs yourself.
As for passwords in scp - you are in control of the SUT so why not
enable public/private key authentication?
you can always pass a password to scp if you are running Unix commands -
I will leave that as an excersize for you to google.

Hi James,
Thanks for update.
i am using all linux boxes for this task.
As i mentioned above my jenkins will get the code from Git and bundle
it on *server A, *After this step i'm provisioning new VM in VMware
infrastructure*. *
Now i want to move that code from *Server A* to newly Provisioned
*Server B.*
As you mentioned i tried to use SCP plugin to transfer the code, but
the challenge i'm facing here is SCP target has to be pre-configured (
but my target is always dynamic) in Jenkins(Correct me if i'm wrong).
is there any chance to use scp command along with password..? since
i'm not using key based authentication.

It all depends on what is your target server is running, and what
you want to transfer.
If the slave and target server are unix like then scp is your
friend. For windows things get a little more complex but if you
can expose a share on the target you can just copy (windows to
windows with unc paths) or for unix to windows use something like
smbclient.
With windows the harder part may be getting your software to run
depending what your deployment model is.
