The CPS "groovy" is only executed on master. You can use loads of different steps in a node block to target that step at executing on the node... but it depends on the actual step to fork processes... Depending on how the step was written to fork the process you may lose the "restartable jenkins" property of pipelines, e.g. If not based on durable task api, or if not idempotent Which is another reason not to think of pipeline as "groovy" > > On Wednesday, August 2, 2017 at 12:38:37 PM UTC-5, Cuong Tran wrote: >> >> You can't use normal groovy api since it only works on master.
