Issue/Introduction:

When using the Apache Mesos and Marathon hosting platform (instead of the supported Docker Compose or Kubernetes), the following error was shown when running the provided IAAM Docker image (sv-docker.packages.ca.com/sv/iaam):

IAM Setup Error:
app: iam
run_id: abcdef-af62-4cd1-ba38-3793416b3c38
task_instance_id: 123456-1d30-11ea-8779-ca9ad2b80edb
epoch:
team:
message: Cannot start embedded server: SRVR-1: Cannot invoke 'start' on embedded process: SRVR-1: Could not create server content directory: /iam/standalone/data/content

Is there a way to not make the container tightly coupled with a specific account, or resolve this permission issue.

Environment:

Release : 10.5.1

Component : CA Service Virtualization

Resolution:

The provided DevTest IAAM Docker image (sv-docker.packages.ca.com/sv/iaam) was used and the following command was run before start up to set the permissions on the iam folder:
RUN chown -R 0 /iam/ && chmod -R g+rw /iam/
