How to disable updates in Jenkins

Question

Do I have a chance to disable unwanted updates in jenkins such as plugins, so the pipeline should not break while in pipeline. And it can break the stability of pipeline.

I looked at Configure System in Jenkins but I could not see any information about it.

Answer 1

Starting jenkins 2.230 you can add next JCasC yaml config:

jenkins:
  disabledAdministrativeMonitors:
    - hudson.model.UpdateCenter$CoreUpdateMonitor

Answer 2

There is an option under Manage Jenkins: Configure System -> Administrative monitors configuration. Uncheck "Jenkins Update Notification".
