Presuming that you have the Jenkins server / master configured not to build software (no executors), you must have at least one build slave set to: Utilize this slave as much as possible or the system will not shelve jobs (at least on Jenkins v1.466.2)

Yes, we have a Linux, 2 Winodows, and 2 Mac, build servers. The jobs I'm trying to shelve have all run successfully. They just will not recognize the build servers.

Whenever I try to shelve a project it just sits in the "Build Queue" with the msg "Waiting for next available executor". There is nothing running on any of the build servers. Outside of clicking into the project and choosing "Shelve Project" from the left hand menu and then clicking on the "Shelve Project" button after that, what do I need to do to get this to work? Any info is appreciated.
