Wouldn't that cause Maven to ping every server sequentially for every needed artifact? Better to set up a Maven repository manager (Nexus, Artifactory, etc.) and proxy all the needed sources, no? Then your settings.xml is always constant, pointing at your master Nexus, which groups all your needed repositories. Your build is reproducible and remains resilient to otherwise disruptive remote repository changes -- as long as your master Nexus does not change. On Tue, Oct 18, 2016 at 8:03 AM, Mark H.
