You can install the Db2
Graph container
on macOS or Windows systems running Docker.
Before you begin
Attention:
With the release of Db2 11.5.9, Db2
Graph is
discontinued. You can still run Db2
Graph as a
standalone application with Db2 11.5.6 through
11.5.8.
Procedure
-
Run the following
command:
docker run -it --hostname=<hostname_from_host_machine> -v <location>:/db2graph --name=db2graph -p 8182:8182 -p 3000:3000 -e LICENSE=view icr.io/obs/hdm/db2graph:latest-amd64
where
- hostname_from_host_machine is the hostname of the system on which you are
executing the command. The hostname value is used when generating the OpenSSL certificate on the
first run of the container.
- location is set to a location on the host machine where you want Db2
Graph files to
be stored.
After viewing the license, press Ctrl+P Ctrl+Q to exit and leave Db2
Graph running
in the container.
During installation, take note of the password that is presented for the
graph_admin and graph_user accounts. You need the password
to log in to Db2
Graph.
- Optional: Change the randomly generated default password for either
graph_admin or graph_user:
- Execute the following command:
docker exec -it db2graph manage user
- Select the graph_admin or graph_user account and enter
a password.
- Repeat the process to change the password for the other account.
- Restart the container by running the following command:
docker exec -it db2graph manage restart
What to do next
By default, the Db2
Graph user
interface is available at :https://<hostname>:3000
where
hostname is the hostname of the server running Docker. The
Db2
Graph server is
available at:
wss://<hostname>:8182
If you
selected different values for the ports when issuing the docker run command, you
must update the URLs to reflect your selected port numbers.
