Here's what I do. For the variable value, I use ${__P(my_param_name)}.
Then I invoke Jmeter as
$ jmeter -n -t plan.jmx -Jmy_param_name=10
or whatever value I want.
Careful: When running with servers (jmeter -R) use -G instead of -J !
Cheers,
Felix

Hi Nythia,
I haven't heard of a possibility to change test plan variables from the
command line yet. To work around this you could write a csv file which
is editable via the nano or pico editors. You may have to install cygwin
if you're not on a linux machine. Having done that, you could even edit
the jmx in the command prompt for it is a 'simple' xml file. I wouldn't
suggest that, though, and you will agree once you've tried.

Im assuming you want to change this while the test is running?
a. http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/best-practices.html -
BeanShell Server
b. Modify your test itself so that it knows that the value needs to be
changed and picks up a new value(What is the condition under which you want
to make this change)?
