System Properties and Environment Variables

You can use system properties and environment variables to configure many aspects of Management Center, from JMX to the home directory and feature flags. These properties give you the power to tweak settings at startup without having to configure anything in the UI.

If an environment variable isn’t available for a property and you start Management Center using any of the following methods, you can use the JAVA_OPTS environment variable to set system properties:

  • Docker environments

    You may also need to use other environment variables. For the Docker reference, see DockerHub.
  • hz-mc conf tool

  • Start scripts included with Hazelcast Platform or Management Center such as hz-mc start.

You can use properties to configure both Management Center and Management Center’s client connection strategy on startup.

Management Center Configuration

If an environment variable is available, it is listed under the system property in the Property column.
