+### Configuration Runtime Environment Variables
+You have to set config with prefix `containerized.master.env.` and `containerized.taskmanager.env.` in order to set redefined environment variable in ApplicationMaster and TaskManager.

+- `containerized.master.env.`: Prefix for passing custom environment variables to Flink's master process. 
+   For example for passing LD_LIBRARY_PATH as an env variable to the AppMaster, set containerized.master.env.LD_LIBRARY_PATH: "/usr/lib/native"
+    in the flink-conf.yaml.
+- `containerized.taskmanager.env.`: Similar to the above, this configuration prefix allows setting custom environment variables for the workers (TaskManagers).
