Jenkins locking my AD Account

Hello All,

We have integrated ( almost 3 years back) Jenkins to use AD account . From last few days Jenkins is locking my AD account very frequently .

I verified all the jobs in Jenkins to make sure , they are not using my old credentials .
Our AD team and UNIX team confirmed Jenkins application is locking my account .
Can someone help me how to resolve this issue .

Did you recently change your password? If so, my guess is there is some job that has the old password.

I did not change my password recently , the problem started all of sudden . I validated all the jobs for my old password and none of the jobs are using my old password .

i have the same problem. how did it get resolved

You should maybe check the Jenkins Logs.
They might contain information about which operations are causing your AD account to be locked.
You can view the logs by navigating to “Manage Jenkins” → “System Log” in the Jenkins dashboard.

You could also try to update the plugins.
If you’re using a plugin for AD integration, make sure it’s up to date. An outdated plugin might be causing this issue. :person_shrugging:

Instead of using your personal AD account, could you consider using a service account for Jenkins operations?
A service account is a special type of account that is not tied to a specific user and is typically used for running services or automated tasks.
