The container demonstration to create the
Enterprise Test Server base image includes a
batch file (bld.bat) to make the process of running the demonstration as easy as possible. This topic lists and describes the parameters that
you can specify when running
bld.bat.
Note: The product installers for the
... for docker products, such as Visual COBOL Development Hub for Docker, are supplied as a
.tar file. For example
devhub_dockerfiles_8.0_platform.tar for the base release, and
devhub_dockerfiles_8.0_platform_patchupdate01.tar for the patch update installer. (The patch update installers provide the basic product images, but do not include the
Hello World or other container examples; these are only provided with the base release.)
To obtain the
bld.sh installation script, installable executable, and other files mentioned below, extract the provided
.tar file into an empty directory on the container host machine. The files for the base release will be in a
DevHub directory within the
.tar file; the files for a patch update will be in the main directory extracted from the
.tar file.
When using
bld.bat to create a base image for
Enterprise Test Server you need to ensure that the relevant installation files and licenses are available in the same folder as
bld.bat. These are:
- The installable executable file for
Enterprise Test Server. This is
ets_80.exe
and is supplied in the container demonstration for the
Enterprise Test Server base image.
- The appropriate license (.mflic or
.xml) file for
Enterprise Test Server.
The command to execute the batch file to run the container demonstration for the
Enterprise Test Server base image is as follows:
bld.bat { IacceptEULA [hotfix <patch-update-installer-exe>] [install-location] |
rmi }
where the parameters are:
- IacceptEULA
- Indicates that you accept the
Micro Focus End User License Agreement (EULA).
You must specify
IacceptEULA to create a base image containing
Enterprise Test Server.
- hotfix
<patch-update-installer-exe>
- Specifies the executable installer for the patch update, which is included in product download
.zip file. Use this option to build the
Enterprise Test Server base image demontration that is based off of a patch update install.
- install-location
- Specifies the name of the folder in the image filesystem into which
Enterprise Test Server will be installed. If specified, this must be the last parameter.
- rmi
-
Indicates that you want to remove any previously-created
Enterprise Test Server base images. Specifying
rmi results in the execution of a number of
docker rmi --force commands to remove all
Enterprise Test Server base images.
