This document details the containerisation of a Mysql Database both locally and on the SCD Cloud for Monitoring the State of Autoreduction

• Configure Virtual Machine on SCD Cloud - I would recommend using m3.small flavour of ubuntu Xenial NoGui distribution if just for testing purposes.

• SSH into machine using <staff_username>@

• Run sudo apt-get update

• Install Docker repository using the following command:

  sudo apt-get install \
      apt-transport-https \
      ca-certificates \
      curl \
      gnupg-agent \
      software-properties-common
  

• check if hostname exists in VM:

  cat /etc/hosts

  • If hostname doesn't exist use vim to edit /etc/hosts to add it 127.0.0.1 <hostname>

• Add Docker official GPG key:

  curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -

• Verify You now have key with fingerprint 9DC8 5822 9FC7 DD38 854A E2D8 8D81 803C 0EBF CD88:

  sudo apt-key fingerprint 0EBFCD88

• Setup a stable repository on x86_64/ amd64:

     sudo add-apt-repository \
         "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \
         $(lsb_release -cs) \
         stable"
  

• Update all existing packadge using command: sudo apt update

• you are about to install from the Docker repo instead of the default Ubuntu repo using command:

  'apt-cache policy docker-ce'

  This should output something along the following lines:

  docker-ce:
    Installed: (none)
    Candidate: 18.03.1~ce~3-0~ubuntu
    Version table:
       18.03.1~ce~3-0~ubuntu 500
          500 https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu xenial/stable amd64 Packages
  

• Install latest Version of Docker Engine and containerd using command:

  sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

• Optionally, but also good practice - check everything installed correctly by trying the following commands:

  • docker --version
  • sudo docker run hello-world
  • sudo docker ps -a
  • sudo docker rm <CONTAINER ID>

Clone repository: git clone https://github.com/ISISSoftwareServices/AutoreductionMonitor.git

Follow instructions within repository located here (note you will need to add sudo to each command):

• database_containerisation/README.md - (Please note that when running docker commands on SCD Cloud, you may need to add sudo)
