    log.info("Connecting to database @ " + dbUrl + " using " + dbUser + "/" + dbPass);
    emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("manager", Maps.create(
            "javax.persistence.jdbc.user", dbUser,
            "javax.persistence.jdbc.password", dbPass,

    ));

not part of jpa spec, so no. some implementations may allow some updates ... e.g dayanucleus http://www.datanucleus.org/products/accessplatform_3_0/jpa/persistence_unit.html but what do u want to change?
