Command Central Docker images

Create subscription on Docker Store

• Login to Docker Store with your Docker ID
• Open Command Central product
• Checkout, accept the license agreement to get access to Command Central images

Preparation

Login to Docker with your Docker ID on the target machine and verify you can download the images from the Docker Store:

docker login
docker pull store/softwareag/commandcentral-client:10.3

Using docker-compose to stand up basic dev or test environment

IMPORTANT: Empower SDC credentials are required to register product and fix repositories

Run example init service from docker-compose.yml file:

On Linux, Mac

export EMPOWER_USR=you@company.com
export EMPOWER_PSW=****
export CC_PASSWORD=****

docker-compose run --rm init
...
INIT SUCCESSFUL

On Windows:

set EMPOWER_USR=you@company.com
set EMPOWER_PSW=****
set CC_PASSWORD=****

docker-compose run --rm init
...
INIT SUCCESSFUL

The above command will:

• Create and start Command Central container
• Create, start and register a test managed node as node1 alias
• Register master products and fixes repositories using provided Empower credentials
• Verify node1 and repositories are registed and accessible

NOTE: Command Central container (cc service) performs all the initialization on its own. The init service is run for verification purpose only.

When the above command successfully completes, open Command Central Web UI and login as Administrator and CC_PASSWORD.

Persistance

Command Central container uses named volumes for persisting data and configuration. You can list the created volumes using docker volume ls command:

docker volume ls
DRIVER              VOLUME NAME
local               sagdevops-cc-server_cce_conf
local               sagdevops-cc-server_cce_data
local               sagdevops-cc-server_spm_conf
local               sagdevops-cc-server_spm_data

Any changes you make within Command Central container are peristed in these volumes. The containers can be completely destroyed, recreated, upgraded and the configuration and data will be preserved.

Troubleshooting

1. Check status of the containers by running docker-compose ps command

If cc service has exited with exit code 100, this means the initialization of the Command Central container has failed

2. Check the Command Central container logs by running docker-compose logs cc command.

If the failed initialization refers to repository connectivity error, double check that you provided valid Empower credentials using EMPOWER_USR and EMPOWER_PSW

Developing templates and Dockerizing your applications

Please see Software AG DevOps Templates project for details on how use default Command Central templates for template-based provisioning, customize them and create your own templates, as well as build default and custom Docker images for your applications.
