Java : Where exactly the Properties would be configured?

Inside my Java class say Props.java File . I have this static block as shown 

static
  {
    instanceName = System.getProperty("bayer.instanceName");
    systemPath = System.getProperty("bayer.home");
    if (systemPath == null)
      systemPath = ".";
    propsFile = new File(System.getProperty("bayer.home") + File.separator + "bayer.properties");
  }

Please tell me where this properties , bayer.instanceName and bayer.home would be defined ?? For more information i am using Apache Tomcat 6.0 server and Linux Environment .

Another standard location is 

$TOMCAT_HOME/bin/setenv.sh

If you don't find them there do a grep bayer.home $TOMCAT_HOME/bin

Another resource to check are the init-scripts which depend on your system. See /etc/init.d.

System properties are set on the java command line using the -Dpropertyname=value syntax, for example:

java -cp someclasspath -Dbayer.instanceName=foo com.mycompany.MyClass
