I have a requirement to run a destroy job (which will destroy the instances) after testing. The testing will take around 1hr. So the instances can be destroyed after that, adding some leisure time, say after 2hrs.

Jenkins file
Run job-1
Run job-2 - deploy in lower environment
Run job-3 - destroy lower environment after 2hrs of current-time
Run job-4
Run job-5 - after 3hrs

All the jobs should run one after another without wait. And there I am stuck !!

timer - will wait until the given time completes and abort :(
sleep - will wait until the given time and runs next job/whatever :(
trigger - will trigger the job but with cron functionality :(

I am ok to use trigger if my requirement can be accomplished with it.
Or any groovy code to set trigger time (set cron time [currentTime + 3hrs])!

Or

simply - I want to run a cronjob ONLY for one time [just after 3hrs of Now]

Note: I am a newbee to groovy

  • triggers { upstream(upstreamProjects: 'job2', threshold: hudson.model.Result.SUCCESS) } https://jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/syntax/#triggers Will this not work for you instead of waiting for 3 hours? – dot May 22 '19 at 00:52

Use Quiet period set to 120 mins for the last job - Job-5 Groovy syntax is build job: 'Job-5',quietPeriod: 120, wait: false
