#!groovy

pipeline {
    agent none
    stages {
        stage('Stage 1') {
            steps {
                node(windowsNode) {
                    script {
                        // all subsequent steps should be run on the same windows node
                        windowsNode = NODE_NAME
                    }
                    echo "windowsNode: $windowsNode, NODE_NAME: $NODE_NAME"
                }
            }
        }
        stage('Stage 2') {
            steps {
                node(windowsNode) {
                    echo "windowsNode: $windowsNode, NODE_NAME: $NODE_NAME"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
