<p>I'm building a CD pipeline using Jenkins on the Google Kubernetes Engine and I'm running into problems on the first build. As shown in the output below, the pipelined stages are being skipped &quot;due to earlier failure(s)&quot; which I am unable to identity.</p>
<p>I'm very new to Jenkins so would appreciate any help.
I've also pasted the Jenkinsfile below.</p>

<p>Plainly at the bottom of the log is the message:</p>
<p><code>ERROR: Node is not a Kubernetes node:</code></p>
<p>The pipeline is failing to launch the kubernetes agent because the master (according to the log: &quot;Running on Jenkins in /var/jenkins_home/workspace/sample-app_canary&quot;) is not in the kubernetes cluster that's been set up in the Manage Clouds section in Jenkins.</p>
