We are using Glassfish for several projects. I would like to completely disable the update checks at startup since they make testing difficult in low-bandwidth scenario.
We are doing automatic testing with both Glassfish in embedded mode as well as automatically configuring a new domain, starting the server and testing with server running normally.
Since all the tests are completely automatic all the solutions I found involving the admin interface are not practicable.
BTW: we are using Glassfish 3.1.2
Any hint?
Have a look at this discussion referenced in one of my old answers. There are some options discussed.
If I remember correctly, one of them was about renaming the particular module in the GF modules dir. But it is a kind of lenghty discussion there. Hope you get some hints!
