Hello usergroup, I have two Jenkins servers (both at version 1.598), one which is responsible for setting up how the jobs are configured in the other one. The jobs being configured are inheritance jobs containing inheritable parameters (I unfortunately can't use OOTB parameters for this and we use the inheritance functionality pretty substantially, so that can't be factored out either). So far, I've tried setting up the reconfiguration jobs to modify the config.xml file directly with the new default values and then force the Jenkins to reload its configuration, but the old values are still present (they still appear to be present after shutting down and restarting the Jenkins server as well, so it doesn't look like it was a case of the reload simply not going through). I then tried POSTing the modified version of the config.xml file, but that also didn't appear to change anything. Checking the job configuration in the web UI and the parameter derivation still shows the old values. I checked the job's config.xml in the filesystem and confirmed that the parameters were modified properly.
Is there a correct way to modify the default values to these parameters without having to use the web UI?
