title: Changing default JENKINS_HOME directory on Ubuntu Install with apt-get?
body: <p>I am running an EC2 instance with an attached EBS of 100GB exclusively for the use of Jenkins Workspace (i.e. Jenkins_Home)</p>
  
  <p>I mount the EBS at /mnt/jenkins and i set up the variable JENKINS_HOME to /mnt/jenkins before i install jenkins via apt-get</p>
  
  <p>Still my jenkins defaults to /var/lib/jenkins/</p>
  
  <p>How can i pass this information during / after setup before launch. I am not looking towards difficult management by moving the folder to the desired location and changing the config files. </p>
  
  <p>What is the best practice regarding this.</p>
