Set the readOnlyRootFilesystem: true

Current: IBM DataPower Interact Gateway v12.1.1.3

Our security Team reached us to verify the read permission, and set the readOnlyRootFilesystem: true
What could be the impact of setting this on each iDIG container? Which paths need to be writable?
 

Could future releases ship the Deployments with readOnlyRootFilesystem: true and the required emptyDir volumes by default, 
or expose securityContext/volumes in the custom resources? (In our tests, a spec.template override on the DatapowerInteractGatewayCluster 
was accepted but not applied to the analytics-proxy Deployment.)

(this was just an example/template from our Sec Team)
