Apache resource does not come online if the directory containing Apache pid file gests deleted when a node or zone restarts (2680661)

The directory in which Apache http server creates PidFile may get deleted when a node or zone restarts. Typically the PidFile is located at /var/run/apache2/httpd.pid. When the zone reboots, the /var/run/apache2 directory may get removed and hence the http server startup may fail.
Workaround: Make sure that Apache http server writes the PidFile to an accessible location. You can update the PidFile location in the Apache http configuration file (For example: /etc/apache2/httpd.conf).
