[JIRA] (JENKINS-12667) No possibility to specify "Workspace Root Directory" for Slave node

[ciar...@gmail.com (JIRA)]

ciaranj edited a comment on JENKINS-12667 No possibility to specify "Workspace Root Directory" for Slave node As an update, further reading of the code has shown that it is possible to achieve what I (and possible the issue author requests through specifying a system property on startup of the jenkins master node. I've updated my jenkins startup script to pass: -Dhudson.model.Slave.workspaceRoot=e:/ This is interpreted seperately from the JENKINS_HOME variable so I'm able to have separate local jenkins working files, but a shared disk location for all the slave workspaces(in my case the E: drive, note the value passed can be absolutely specified or specified relatively to JENKINS_HOME), which is exactly what I wanted to achieve. Be aware this will affect all nodes however!
