The Software AG product installation directory/Adabas/docker/ directory contains scripts to create Docker-compatible packages from the Adabas installation. A prerequisite to use the scripts is to use the Software AG Installer for the installation of Adabas.

Use the scripts to generate a package for:

• A single Adabas instance without add-ons

• A single Adabas instance with Adabas RESTful Administration (the installation must contain the Adabas RESTful Administration component).

The Adabas RESTful Administration allows you to administer and monitor an Adabas Docker container through a REST server port instead of using the docker attach command. Software AG provides a batch tool to connect to the container through a REST server port. For more information about administering Adabas through REST, see Adabas REST Administration.
