How To Setup Jenkins With Windows Master and Linux Slave

an alternative but fun perspective on this harmonious world

Normally, the Jenkins master is installed on a Linux server, while the clients are installed on various platforms ranging from *nix systems to windows systems. However, what if the Jenkins master is installed on a windows server and it has to command its Linux clients. Is it possible still?

The answer is yes!

By default, the one you have installed Jenkins is the master; on the slave, you don’t have to install anything, just download slave-agent.jar

Every project, you will see “Build with parameters” instead of “Build”

Then go back to master and click run the project -” build with parameters” and choose the node you want to run an item on.

There you go! :)
