As preparation, create data directories and change the data directory ownership to uid(10000) which is the default user id used in the Pulsar Docker container.

You may encounter issues with the default RocksDB metadata store.

We recommend you consider using the following environment variable to use ZooKeeper as the metadata store:

```
...
-e PULSAR_STANDALONE_USE_ZOOKEEPER=1 \
...
```

Don't apply this fix for existing Pulsar standalone instances if you don't want to loose your data.

:::

If you want to change Pulsar configurations and start Pulsar, run the following command by passing environment variables with the `PULSAR_PREFIX_` prefix. See [default configuration file](https://github.com/apache/pulsar/blob/e6b12c64b043903eb5ff2dc5186fe8030f157cfc/conf/standalone.conf) for more details.

I don't think it's a good idea to recommend not to use a default setting. If we have a bug in default configuration, we must fix it. If it cannot be fixed, we will have to change the defaults.

It would be the best solution. @lhotari 's concern was that:

it would have to be documented since many might be using old versions and wondering about the resolution.
The problem in changing the default is that it would break existing "deployments" with data

@merlimat I agree. Since we cannot change already released versions and users are hitting problems, I think it's worth documenting the workaround until there's a better solution. It seems that there isn't a nice way to solve this problem.

I'll merge this PR with the current content. We can come back to this later once there's a better resolution.
