A persistent monitor can use the Apama Time Format and MemoryStore EPL plug-ins and the chunk types contained by the events defined by those plug-ins. A persistent monitor cannot use any other chunk types. This means that a persistent monitor cannot use an event or plug-in that references a chunk type even if the application does not use those chunks.

Please note those upgrading to 5.3 onwards with applications using persistence should read the information about backwards incompatibility at Backwards incompatibility with persisted projects recovered to 5.3 from older versions.
