Before Deploying the PACC
Perform a series of checks on the platform and cluster before deploying the PACC.
Before you deploy a PACC, or an application container based on the PACC, perform the following checks on the platform and cluster.
On the platform where you plan to deploy... | On the data-fabric cluster... |

Leveraging File System Storage for Application Persistence
The data associated with containers is typically not persistent. If you specify a mount
path using MAPR_MOUNT_PATH
, any data written to the mounted directory will
be persisted to the data-fabric file system. For example, you could create a symlink to the
Apache log directory and persist all log files in the filesystem.
If you specify a mount path and if your hardware or application fails, re-launching the container in any location using the same Docker runtime environment variables will result in all pre-created data being available for use.
Security Considerations
You should be aware of security considerations for secure and non-secure clusters when using PACCs. See Security Considerations for the PACC.
