Creating Container Images with Software AG Installer on Linux systems
You can use Software AG Installer to create container images on Linux systems without a preexisting installation. The Installer client can install any certified products along with their fixes and build a container image. When one or more of the products you are using to build a container image have default administrator passwords, make sure to specify the --admin-password property. Only products that are certified for containerization and their top level dependencies are shown in the product tree and only a single runtime product can be selected at a time. For example, if you select Microservices Runtime then you won't be able to select Universal Messaging, because both products provide their runtime and entrypoint scripts.
Note:
Products that are not certified or are not in the scope of the release are not shown in the Installer tree.
To create a container image with Software AG Installer, start the Installer client executable with the
create container-image command after adding the desired options to the command.
To view all required and available options when creating a container image with Software AG Installer, start the Installer client executable with the
create container-image help command.
When you are creating an image with Software AG Installer and a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space error occurrs, add the JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Dcom.softwareag.installer.useTempFileForZipMerge=true system environment and then create the image.
Note:
This functionality is not available for releases lower than 10.11.
