Accessing the Docker containers

When your deployment is up and running, you can access your Docker containers to begin using the InfoSphere® MDM application.

Procedure

  1. On the host machine, go to the Docker working directory where you earlier deployed the Docker image package files (/mdm).
  2. Run the Docker list command to get a list of all the Docker containers running in your system:
    docker container ls
  3. For terminal access, attach to each InfoSphere MDM Docker container, as needed.
    docker exec –it <container name> /bin/bash

    In each command, replace <container name> with the name of the Docker container you wish to connect to (such as mdm_container, db2_container, wb_container, bpmdb_container, mdmisc_container, or clientapps_container).

    The following are the default users used for attaching to various containers if you do not specify another user in the terminal access command:
    • The bpmadmin user connects to the mdmisc_container. This user does not have a set password.
    • The ws9admin user connects to mdm_container, clientapps_container, and wb_container. This user does not have a set password.
    • The db2inst1 user connects to db2_container and bpmdb_container.
    Tip: Terminal access is useful for running commands such as Installation Verification Testing (IVT). To run IVT from a terminal command, run the following script:
    ./verify.sh <dbuser> <dbpassword> <mdmadmin> <mdmpassword> <database SSL enabled> <database trust store location> <database trust store password>
    Where:
    • dbuser is the database user.
    • dbpassword is the password associated with the database user.
    • mdmadmin is the default WebSphere® Application Server administration security user name.
    • mdmpassword is the password associated with the mdmadmin user.
    • database SSL enabled is whether the database is SSL enabled or not (true or false). For Deployed MDM, the database is always SSL enabled.
    • database trust store location is the file path of the database trust store. For Deployed MDM, the file path of the database trust store is $WAS_PROFILE_HOME/config/cells/WASHOSTCell01/nodes/WASHOSTNode01/trust.p12.
    • database trust store password is the password of the database trust store. For Deployed MDM, the trust store password is WebAS.
    The SSL and trust store arguments cannot be left blank. For example, if SSL is not enabled on the database and there is no trust store, then the command should be similar to the following:
    verify.sh db2inst1 db2inst1 mdmadmin mdmadmin false none none
  4. To access the various parts of the InfoSphere MDM application on the Docker containers, use the following information:
    MDM application container (mdm_container)
    • InfoSphere MDM administrator credentials:
      • user ID: mdmadmin
      • password: mdmadmin
    • WebSphere Application Server administrator credentials:
      • user ID: mdmadmin
      • password: mdmadmin
    • Database administrator credentials:
      • user ID: db2inst1
      • password: db2inst1
      Note: Use db2inst1 only if you are using IBM Db2 (db2_container). If you are using another database system, use the appropriate user and password.

    MDM Workbench container (wb_container)
    The MDM Workbench container includes VNC server (and also a noVNC server) so that you can access it remotely.

    To access the MDM Workbench desktop using VNC in GUI mode, browse to http://hostname:6080/vnc.html. Each open browser/tab at this URL opens a new session.

    The default password for noVNC is temp4now. To change it, edit the Docker Compose file mdm-wb.yml.

    MDM Workbench workspaces are mapped under the Docker volume on the host machine under workspace. This location contains all of the workspace assets and will survive even if the wb_container goes down. It is mapped to the wb_container location /opt/IBM/rationalsdp/workspace.
