+mp.config.profile
++++++++++++++++++
+
+MicroProfile Config 2.0 defines the `concept of "profiles" <https://download.eclipse.org/microprofile/microprofile-config-2.0/microprofile-config-spec-2.0.html#configprofile>`_.
+They can be used to change configuration values by context. This is used in Dataverse to change some configuration
+defaults when used inside container context rather classic installations.
+
+As per the spec, you will need to set the configuration value ``mp.config.profile`` to ``ct`` as early as possible.
+This is best done with a system property:
+
+``./asadmin create-system-properties 'mp.config.profile=ct'``
+
+You might also create your own profiles and use these, please refer to the upstream documentation linked above.
