Secure Token Server Container Deployment

 

Build

To build the Lightwave STS Container, follow the instructions in BUILD.md. The build process generates a saved Docker container in the file vmware-lightwave-sts.tar.

 

Deployment

The following steps show how to deploy the container image on a Photon host.

 

1. Make sure that the docker daemon is running.

bash-4.3# systemctl status docker

If the daemon is not active, start it with the command:

bash-4.3# systemctl start docker

 

2. Load the container image:

bash-4.3# docker load < vmware-lightwave-sts.tar

 

3. Create a configuration file

Example data to be placed in /var/lib/vmware/config/lightwave-server.cfg:

deployment=standalone
domain=vsphere.local
admin=Administrator
password=<Administrator password>
site-name=Default-first-site
first-instance=true
hostname=<Host IP address>

 

4. Run a container

bash-4.3# docker run -d --name <name> --privileged --net=host \
                     -v /var/lib/vmware/config:/var/lib/vmware/config \
                     vmware/lightwave-sts

Notes:

  • Choose a unique name for the container

  • This starts the container in host networking mode, meaning that it shares the networking configuration with the container host. Only one container can be running on the host in this mode.

  • The directory /var/lib/vmware/config will be mounted from the host to the container and the lighwave-server.cfg file created in step 3 will be used to automatically configure Lightwave the first time the container is run.
