IBM Container Registry

Since 9.0.5.8 these images have also been available from IBM Container Registry (ICR) using the same tags. In light of recent announcements from Docker about Docker Hub, IBM expects the last version of this container image in Docker Hub to be 9.0.5.18. To continue to receive updates and security fixes after 9.0.5.18 you need to switch to use the images from ICR. To switch your container builds to ICR simply update your Dockerfile to use FROM icr.io/appcafe/websphere-traditional. Pulls from ICR are not rate limited. For more details see IBM docs.

Overview

The images in this repository contain IBM WebSphere Application Server traditional. Instructions on how to use this image as well as the scripts used to build the images can be found on GitHub. See the license section below for restrictions relating to the usage of this image.

Images

We are keeping N-2 9.0.5.x release images in this repository, which means the current fixpack and the previous two. We will also eventually be providing N-2 8.5.5.x release images, starting with 8.5.5.17.

Admin console

In both cases a secure profile is created with an admin user ID of wsadmin and a generated password. The generated password can be retrieved from the container using the following command:

docker exec test cat /tmp/PASSWORD

It is also possible to specify a password when the container is run by mounting a file containing the password to /tmp/PASSWORD. For example:

docker run --name test -h test -v $(pwd)/PASSWORD:/tmp/PASSWORD \
  -p 9043:9043 -p 9443:9443 -d ibmcom/websphere-traditional:latest

Once the server has started, you can access the admin console at https://localhost:9043/ibm/console/login.do?action=secure. If you are running in Docker Toolbox, use the value returned by docker-machine ip instead of localhost.

License for the product installed within the images is as follows:

Note that this license does not permit further distribution and restricts usage to a developer machine unless you have additional entitlement that allows you to use these images in production.
