-Optional ENV Variables

+Environment Variables
+---------------------
-You can set the following environment variables when launching a container to change the A1 behavior:
-1. ``A1_RMR_RETRY_TIMES``: the number of times failed rmr operations such as timeouts and send failures should be retried before A1 gives up and returns a 503. The default is ``4``.
+Kubernetes Deployment
+---------------------
+The official Helm chart for the A1 Mediator is in a deployment repository, which holds all of the Helm charts
+for the RIC platform. There is a helm chart in `integration_tests` here for running the integration tests as
+discussed above.
-2. ``INSTANCE_DELETE_NO_RESP_TTL``: Please refer to the delete flowchart in docs/; this is ``T1`` there. The default is 5 (seconds). Basically, the number of seconds that a1 waits to remove an instance from the database after a delete is called in the case that no downstream apps responded.

-4. ``USE_FAKE_SDL``: This allows testing of the A1 feature without a DBaaS SDL container. The default is False.

-The "real" helm chart for A1 is in the LF it/dep repo. That repo holds all of the helm charts for the RIC platform. There is a helm chart in `integration_tests` here for running the integration tests as discussed above.
