Ah,OK. There's no mechanism that I know of for that.
I'd guess system properties wouldn't even work as two cores in the
same JVM would potentially want different values for the same embedded
system variable if they used different configsets.
So I think you're stuck at present with specifying the properties at
core creation time. I can imagine scripts that read your common
properties file and auto generate the CREATE call, but that would be
custom...
Best,
