 In the meantime, if mixed-case SDC properties need to be set, they can either be set in an <code>sdc.properties</code> file packaged in a custom SDC image, as in the [Custom Docker Image example](2-custom-docker-image), or loaded from a configmap as shown in  the examples [here](5-sdc-properties-configmap-1) and [here](6-sdc-properties-configmap-2).
 
-It's also worth noting that values for environment variables with the prefix <code>SDC_CONF_</code> are written to the <code>sdc.properties</code> file by the SDC container's <code>docker-entrypoint.sh</code> script, which forces the SDC container to have read/write access to the <code>sdc.properties</code> file, which may not be the case if <code>sdc.properties</code> is mounted with read-only access.

The same issue can also occur if the SDC deployment manifest sets these two environment variables:
