CLI in a Docker environment

In a Docker environment, a subset of the appliance CLI commands are available for you to manage the runtime aspects of the appliance.

The CLI can be accessed by invoking the "isam_cli" command in the container. For example, the command to access the CLI in a container with the name "isam_config" would be: "docker exec -it isam_config isam_cli".

The reload command

The reload global command is a new command that is used to reload the configuration for Docker containers. After making configuration changes, use this command to reload the latest configuration data and apply the changes to the running services.

The supported options include:

reload [all|check|policy|runtime] [force]
all
Reload the entire configuration. This will involve some minimal service interruption while the services are restarted.
check
Check whether the container is running with the latest snapshot.
policy
Reload the Security Access Manager policy database. No service interruption will occur as a result of this operation. The policy option is only available in Web Reverse Proxy containers.
runtime
Reload the federation and advanced access control runtime information. No service interruption will occur as a result of this operation. The runtime option is only available in runtime containers.
force
Use this option to force the use of the locally cached data in the event that the configuration service is unavailable.
