Section Number and Name: 
CHAPTER 3. SPECIAL SETUPS


Describe the issue: 

It is necessary to setup persistence for kie-server.war in BPMS.
Process / Task related data would be persisted in database and by default, the out-of-box ds "ExampleDS" is used.

For those customers choose not to use "java:jboss/datasources/ExampleDS" as JNDI name, there needs to be a way to configure this in kie-server.war, just as what we do in business-central.war.


Suggestions for improvement: 
It appears we can specify the DS name by adding system property in JBoss config file (standalone.xml / domain.xml), so standalone.xml looks like:
-------------------------------------
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

<server xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:1.7">
......
    <system-properties>
......
        <property name="org.kie.server.persistence.ds" value="java:jboss/datasources/MyBPMSDS"/>
    </system-properties>
-------------------------------------

Please confirm with developer team if this is the correct / recommended way.
