Environment

• CloudBees Jenkins Enterprise 1.11.0 (CJE)
• CloudBees Jenkins Enterprise 1.11.1 (CJE)
• CloudBees Jenkins Enterprise - Operations Center 2.89.1.6 (CJE-OC)
• CloudBees Jenkins Enterprise - Operations Center 2.89.1.7 (CJE-OC)
• Master Provisioning Core 2.0.3

Resolution

To confirm the issue you are facing execute this script on your CJE-OC Script Console (Manage Jenkins -> Script Console)

ExtensionList.lookup(com.cloudbees.jce.masterprovisioning.DockerImageDefinitionConfiguration.class).get(com.cloudbees.jce.masterprovisioning.DockerImageDefinitionConfiguration.class);

If the script returns nothing you are facing the issue known as TIGER-3950.

There is currently no fix available for TIGER-3950. It will be fixed in the next version of the Master Provisioning Core plugin

Workaround: Restart your CJE-OC (A simple restart from CJE-OC_URL/restart).
