# Building a container image
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
You need to have the following tools installed:
|
|
|
|
* [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) V17.06.1 or later, or [Podman](https://podman.io) V1.0 or later
|
|
* [GNU make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/)
|
|
|
|
If you are working in the Windows Subsystem for Linux, follow [this guide by Microsoft to set up Docker](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/commandline/2017/12/08/cross-post-wsl-interoperability-with-docker/) first.
|
|
|
|
You will also need a [Red Hat Account](https://access.redhat.com) to be able to access the Red Hat Registry.
|
|
|
|
## Building a production image
|
|
|
|
From MQ 9.2.X, the MQ container adds support for MQ Long Term Support (LTS) **production licensed** releases.
|
|
|
|
### MQ Continuous Delivery (CD)
|
|
|
|
This procedure works for building the MQ Continuous Delivery release, on `amd64`, `ppc64le` and `s390x` architectures.
|
|
|
|
1. Create a `downloads` directory in the root of this repository
|
|
2. Download MQ from [IBM Passport Advantage](https://www.ibm.com/software/passportadvantage/) or [IBM Fix Central](https://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral), and place the downloaded file (for example, `IBM_MQ_9.2.4_LINUX_X86-64_NOINST.tar.gz`) in the `downloads` directory
|
|
3. Login to the Red Hat Registry: `docker login registry.redhat.io` using your Customer Portal credentials.
|
|
4. Run `make build-advancedserver`
|
|
|
|
> **Warning**: Note that from MQ 9.2.X CD, the MQ container build uses a 'No-Install' MQ Package, available under `IBM MQ V9.2.x Continuous Delivery Release components eAssembly, part no. CJ7CNML`
|
|
|
|
If you have an MQ archive file with a different file name, you can specify a particular file (which must be in the `downloads` directory). You should also specify the MQ version, so that the resulting image is tagged correctly, for example:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
MQ_ARCHIVE=mq-1.2.3.4.tar.gz MQ_VERSION=1.2.3.4 make build-advancedserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### MQ Long Term Support (LTS)
|
|
|
|
This procedure works for building the MQ Long Term Support release, on `amd64`, `ppc64le` and `s390x` architectures.
|
|
|
|
1. Create a `downloads` directory in the root of this repository
|
|
2. Download MQ from [IBM Passport Advantage](https://www.ibm.com/software/passportadvantage/) or [IBM Fix Central](https://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral), and place the downloaded file (for example, `9.2.0.1-IBM-MQ-Advanced-Non-Install-LinuxX86.tar.gz`) in the `downloads` directory
|
|
3. Login to the Red Hat Registry: `docker login registry.redhat.io` using your Customer Portal credentials.
|
|
4. Run `LTS=true make build-advancedserver`
|
|
|
|
> **Warning**: Note that from MQ 9.2 LTS, the MQ container build uses a 'No-Install' MQ Package, available under `IBM MQ V9.2 Long Term Support Release components eAssembly, part no. CXXXXXX`
|
|
|
|
If you have an MQ archive file with a different file name, you can specify a particular file (which must be in the `downloads` directory). You should also specify the MQ version, so that the resulting image is tagged correctly, for example:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
MQ_ARCHIVE=mq-1.2.3.4.tar.gz MQ_VERSION=1.2.3.4 LTS=true make build-advancedserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Building a developer image
|
|
|
|
Login to the Red Hat Registry: `docker login registry.redhat.io` using your Customer Portal credentials.
|
|
Run `make build-devserver`, which will download the latest version of MQ Advanced for Developers from IBM developerWorks. This is currently only available on the `amd64` architecture.
|
|
|
|
You can use the environment variable `MQ_ARCHIVE_DEV` to specify an alternative local file to install from (which must be in the `downloads` directory).
|
|
|
|
## Installed components
|
|
|
|
This image includes the core MQ server, Java, language packs, GSKit, and web server. This is configured in the `Generate MQ package in INSTALLATION_DIR` section [here](../install-mq.sh), with the configured options being picked up at build time.
