Installing Service Management Unite

Load and run the Docker image to install Service Management Unite.

1. Download the SMU Docker archive depending on the architecture of your host system, for example SMU_Enterprise_v1.1.6.0_Docker_Image_xLinux.tar for the SMU Docker image running on xLinux (x86_64).
   The SMU Docker archive is a compressed file. Run the command to extract the contained files to a target directory:

   tar -xvf <SMU_Docker_archive.tar> --directory <target_dir>

   Note: The target directory must exist before tar can extract the files into it.
   The package contains the following files:
   • An exported Docker image that includes all the prerequisite software and must be loaded into your Docker environment: smu_image_v1160.tar
   • The IBM SMU Docker Command Line Utility: A shell script with other necessary files that help you to manage the SMU Docker image and perform common tasks like loading the Docker image or starting and stopping the SMU Docker container.
     This utility consists of the following files:

     • eezdocker.sh: The key script that allows you to manage the Docker image and container.
       Run command eezdocker.sh help for more details.

       Note: The script must be ran from a user who is allowed to use Docker, for example, root.
     • eezdocker.cfg: A file that allows you to overwrite the default settings used by eezdocker.sh. It must be in the same directory where eezdocker.sh is located. If it doesn’t exist, eezdocker.sh will use its default settings.
     • util: A folder that contains utility files for the eezdocker.sh script.
   • A readme file with additional information about the SMU Docker image.
2. Edit file eezdocker.cfg if you want to change the default settings of eezdocker.sh. For more information, see Customizing the SMU Docker Command Line Utility.
3. Use the IBM SMU Docker Command Line Utility to load the SMU Docker image into your Docker environment by issuing the following command:

   ./eezdocker.sh load

   To verify if the Docker image is loaded, issue command eezdocker.sh status.
   Sample output for checking the status:

   ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
   +         IBM Service Management Unite Docker Command Line Utility         +
   ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 	
   	Executing command status ...
   	
   	Docker image smu_enterprise:1160 ---------------------------- Loaded.
   	Docker container smu_enterprise_1160 ------------------------ Not available.
   	Status of Docker container smu_enterprise_1160 -------------- Not started.

   If the load is successful, you can delete the smu_image.tar because it is not needed anymore.

4. Use the IBM SMU Docker Command Line Utility to start the SMU Docker container by issuing the following command:

   ./eezdocker.sh start

   If you run this command for the first time, a new SMU Docker container will be automatically created from the SMU Docker image.

   The Tivoli Directory Integrator server and WebSphere Application Server are automatically started when a Docker container is started from the SMU Docker image.
   Note: The Docker container is started with the Docker option '–restart on-failure', which means it will be automatically restarted when the SMU Docker container crashes or if the Docker runtime environment or the host system is restarted.

   To verify if the Docker container from the SMU Docker image is started, issue command eezdocker.sh status.

   Sample output for eezdocker.sh status:
