Can you access server properties at runtime?

Hi folks,

Can you access server properties (what's listed in the manifest) when a step runs?

For example, the default "Example" collector checks the version of java installed and stores it in a server property called JVM_VER.

I would love to use the value of JVM_VER in a step.
However, I can't seem to reference it as a normal variable.

Is there any way to get the values of server properties? (in a read only manner)..

Thanks

Andy

Hi Andy,

There isn't a way to get at a server's manifest unless you're using the services layer API, but I don't think that is what you were thinking of.
