System properties management

Question

Is there any \"adequate\" way to change system properties in Jenkins? What is the easiest/fastest way change them? For instance, I need to turn off the useless (in my case)

Answer 1

The system properties available and how to set them are listed on the wiki:
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Features+controlled+by+system+properties

To disable slave pinging, you can set hudson.remoting.Launcher.pingIntervalSec to 0.

System properties can be set in the same way as with any other Java program, e.g.:
java -Dhudson.remoting.Launcher.pingIntervalSec=0 -jar jenkins.war
