> There are some properties that simply cannot be changed once the system is running. So if we must have setters they should do nothing or print a warning and do nothing.

Still not getting it are you. Initially they don't have a value. If the setter does nothing they will never have a value. Thus it's not possible to even start the system properly without working setters on the EnvironmentBeans.  What you really mean is that once the component that uses that value has read the bean and initialized itself accordingly, it should never re-read the bean. That's how it works now, so no problem there. The only snag is that the setter can still be called after startup but will have no appreciable effect, which is a bit confusing for the user if they have not bothered to read the docs that explain that's the expected behavior.
