Jenkins doesn't have label Linux

Question

I am trying to run a Jenkins pipeline and I just keep getting the error:

Jenkins doesn't have label 'linux'

Any idea why this is happening? Is it a plugin I am missing?

pipeline {
    agent{
        label 'linux'
    }
    stages {
        stage('Checkout Code') {
            steps {
                checkout scm
            }
        }
        stage('Build Docker Container') {
            steps {
                script {
                    sh "ls -ltr"
                    env.HARBORHOST ="harbour.com"
                    env.REGISTRY = "securewbs"
                    env.IMAGE = "${env.HARBORHOST}/${env.REGISTRY}/securewbs:${env.BUILD_NUMBER}"
                    wbs = docker.build("${env.IMAGE}")
                }
            }
        }

Answer 1

Go to Manage Jenkins->Manage Nodes. You can chose one of these nodes as your agent. Take the string from the column "name". If the name of one of your nodes is for example "master" you can write:

pipeline {
    agent {
        label 'master'
    }
    ...
}

Answer 2

Look at the configuration section of your Jenkins instance (https://your-jenkins/configure). There is a section called Lockable Resources Manager, and your 'linux' label should be listed here.
The label is a selection field.

Answer 3

if you can, avoid naming the agent, use pipeline { agent any ...

Answer 4

you need to add new variable or name or like a constant (i don't no exact name)

step 1. click on this link: http://localhost:8080/manage/configureTools/
step 2. add tool whatever you want like: node, maven, jdk , etc.
step 3. if it's not visible then first you need to install plugin according to your requirement.
step 4. try again step 2 and use you created "Name" in jenkins file.
