Day 68 of DevOps, Day 18 of Azure. Kubernetes closed yesterday at Day 67, and Jenkins opens here and runs to Day 81. Both of today's tasks ended the same way: the tool said it had succeeded, and the check that settled it was something else entirely.

One Jenkins task, one Azure task. Install Jenkins and get through the setup wizard, then copy a single file into a blob container. The tasks come from the KodeKloud Engineer platform.

Task 1: Install Jenkins

The task: install Jenkins on the jenkins server, start it with the service command, and create a named first administrator.

Step 1: Java, because nothing else works without it
