Relocating the Java class cache location for DX on OpenShift?

Just reviewed the generic JVM arguments being set for the DX profile when running DX on K8S based deployments. By default the Java class cache is located in /tmp hence every new pod starts with an empty cache.

Therefore we are considering locating the java shared class cache on a customPVC (mounted RWX) (which must not be a networked file system) which can be shared by all core pods of the namespace so that the class cache can be shared across all pods like it would be the case for a vertical cluster in a DeploymentManager setup? Might improve the startup time of the pods.

Is this a by HCL supported setup / configuration?

My thoughts are that this is a new feature request but perhaps someone from portal L3 or Dev may have another idea.

Thanks John, created https://dx-ideas.hcltechsw.com/ideas/DX-I-240 for that.

Hope it gets implemented.
