The Docker Container for Light Developer Edition is a lightweight Developer Edition (previously known as Light Edition) designated mainly for developers.
It is geared towards the DataPower developer that wants to run DPOD on their development workstation, in the context of limited functionality.
The Docker Container for Light Developer Edition does not support upgrades and not entitled to IBM support. Each new version requires deployment of new container.

Hardware

1. At least 2GB 4GB of disk space that can grow up to 4GB6GB.
2. At least 3GB of free memory.
3. At least 4 Cores of Intel based CPUs.

...

1. Specific version: datapower-operations-dashboard:<version number>. For example: datapower-operations-dashboard:1.0.89.0
2. Latest version: datapower-operations-dashboard:latest

...

1. Use the Docker pull command:

   Code Block
   language bash theme RDark
   docker pull ibmcom/datapower-operations-dashboard:latest

   
   

2. Manual load: after downloading the desired images to your Docker host use the load command:

   Code Block
   language bash theme RDark
   docker load < /tmp/DPOD-Developer-Docker-1.0.89.tgz

   
   

Use the following command to display your local image repository:

This is how the result should look like:

Enable Firewall Rules (CentOS/Ubuntu only)

If needed enable firewall rules for allowing DataPower access to DPOD Docker container agents (syslog on port 60000 and wsm on port 60020 ) :

sudo iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp -m tcp -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d 0.0.0.0/0 --dport 60000 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp -m tcp -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d 0.0.0.0/0 --dport 60020 -j ACCEPT

...

sudo iptables-save

Create a new Docker container

Use the following command to create a DPOD Docker container:

docker run -d \
   --security-opt seccomp:unconfined \
   --cap-add SYS_ADMIN \
   --cap-add SYS_RESOURCE \ 
   --cap-add SYS_TIME \ 
   --tmpfs /tmp:exec \
   --tmpfs /run \
   --tmpfs /run/lock \
   -v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:ro \
   -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
   --device /dev/rtc \
   -p 9022:22 \
   -p 443:443 \
   -p 60000:60000 \
   -p 60020:60020 \
   --stop-timeout 10 \
   --hostname dpod \
   --name dpod \
   datapower-operations-dashboard:latest && docker exec -d -u root dpod /bin/su - -c "export ACCEPT_LICENSE=true; export TIME_ZONE=America/New_York; export DPOD_EXT_HOST_IP=192.168.65.110<Host IP Address>; /app/scripts/app-init.sh"

...

Special Considerations for Apple MacOS

• Add the --privileged option to the Docker run command.
• The file /etc/localtime should be shared with the container: copy the file located on /etc/localtime to the user directory usually located at /Users/<user name>.
  If you choose to copy the file to another directory make sure to add it to the Docker File Sharing (Docker preferences  -> Preferences -> File sharing).Remove the cgroup volume from Docker run command.

Example of Docker run command for MacOS:

docker run -d \
   --security-opt seccomp:unconfined \
   --cap-add SYS_ADMIN \
   --privilegedcap-add SYS_RESOURCE \ 
   --cap-add SYS_TIME \ 
   --tmpfs /tmp:exec \
   --tmpfs /run \
   --tmpfs /run/lock \
   -v <User Directory>/Userslocaltime:/User1etc/localtime:/etc/localtimero \
   -v /sys/fs/cgroup:/sys/fs/cgroup:ro \
   --device /dev \
   -p 9022:22 \
   -p 443:443 \
   -p 60000:60000 \
   -p 60020:60020 \
   --stop-timeout 10 \
   --hostname dpod \
   --name dpod \
   datapower-operations-dashboard:latest && docker exec -d -u root dpod /bin/su - -c "export ACCEPT_LICENSE=true; export TIME_ZONE=America/New_York; export DPOD_EXT_HOST_IP=192.168.65.110<Host IP Address>; /app/scripts/app-init.sh"

...

• ACCEPT_LICENSE: (mandatory) Indication that the user has accepted the EULA (End User License Agreement). The value for accepting is the number 1. (For reviewing the license agreement see "reviewing license agreement ")
• TIME_ZONE: (optional) use the time zone configured to your monitored device. The time zone should be compatible with the “tz database time zone”. The default time zone is “America/New_York”.
• DPOD_EXT_HOST_IP: (optional) Use this variable if your monitored device does not have direct access to your DPOD container (for example, if you are using physical or virtual IDG appliance).
  The value should be the Docker host IP address.
• DPOD_NTP_1: (optional) use this value to configure your primary NTP server IP address inside the DPOD container.
• DPOD_NTP_2, DPOD_NTP_3, DPOD_NTP_4: (optional) use this value to configure your secondary NTP servers IP address inside the DPOD container.

Use the following command to display running docker containers:

docker ps
