Hi Isaac<br>
From my point of view, we should choose between one way or another,
I find it can be confusing to support both options. I'd prefer
templating the file, but not only adding the memory parameter here,
but make it fully customizable so we remove the need to pass an
external file.<br>
Any other thoughts there?<br>

<font face="sans-serif" size="2">openstack-infra/puppet-jenkins

a default file with the configuration of jenkins master
(/etc/default/jenkins).</font><br>
<font face="sans-serif" size="2">Many times, this file needs to be

<font face="sans-serif" size="2">Customization of this file by

<font face="sans-serif" size="2">For example: It is simpler to use

<font face="sans-serif" size="2">According to Yolanda, discussion
about
passing an external file Vs customizing the default file in a

took place in the past.</font><br>
