Why I did it
Fix the issue with running "dhcp-server-ipv4:kea-dhcp4" process after a cold reboot: TODO issue number
Work item tracking
How I did it
The root cause of the issue is that during the cold reboot, the PID file of the process (that is stored on the persisted FS) is not cleared. From the KEA DHCP server documentation:
To make sure that the PID file is always cleared during the dhcp-server container restart the PID file should be stored on the tmpfs.
How to verify it
