getChannelToMaster

@CheckForNull
public static hudson.remoting.VirtualChannel getChannelToMaster()

Obtains a VirtualChannel that allows some computation to be performed on the master. This method can be called from any thread on the master, or from agent (more precisely, it only works from the remoting request-handling thread in agents, which means if you've started separate thread on agents, that'll fail.)

Returns:

null if the calling thread doesn't have any trace of where its master is.
