h2. Building the Arvados Docker containers
-First we need a suitable @config.yml@ file.
+First of all, a suitable @config.yml@ file is needed.
<notextile>
<pre><code>~$ <span class="userinput">cd arvados/docker</span>
~$ <span class="userinput">cp config.yml.example config.yml</span>
</code></pre></notextile>
-Now it's time to edit the @config.yml@ file and fill in suitable values for at a minimum these parameters:
+Edit the @config.yml@ file and fill in values for at a minimum these
+parameters:
<pre>
PUBLIC_KEY_PATH
+ARVADOS_USER_NAME
API_HOSTNAME
API_AUTO_ADMIN_USER
</pre>
+Then build the docker containers (this will take a while):
+
+<notextile>
+<pre><code>
+~$ <span class="userinput">./build.sh</span>
+...

+Step 8 : CMD ["/usr/bin/supervisord", "-n"]
+ ---> Running in 84c64cb9f0d5

+Removing intermediate container 84c64cb9f0d5
+Successfully built d6cbb5002604

+</code></pre></notextile>
+
+If all goes well, you should now have a number of docker images built:
+
+<notextile>

+h2. Updating the Arvados Docker containers
+
+If there has been an update to the Arvados Docker building code, it is safest to rebuild the Arvados Docker images from scratch. All build information can be cleared with the 'clean' option to build.sh:
+
+<notextile>
+<pre><code>~$ <span class="userinput">./build.sh clean</span></code></pre>
+</notextile>
+
+You can also use 'realclean', which does what 'clean' does and in addition removes all Arvados Docker containers and images from your system, with the exception of the arvados/debian image.
+
+<notextile>
+<pre><code>~$ <span class="userinput">./build.sh realclean</span></code></pre>
+</notextile>
+
+Finally, the 'deepclean' option does what 'realclean' does, and also removes the arvados/debian, crosbymichael/skydns and crosbymichael/skydock images.
+
+<notextile>
+<pre><code>~$ <span class="userinput">./build.sh deepclean</span></code></pre>
+</notextile>
+
h2. Running the Arvados Docker containers
The @arvdock@ command can be used to start and stop the docker containers. It has a number of options:
usage: ./arvdock (start|stop|restart|test) [options]
./arvdock start/stop/restart options:
- -d [port], --doc[=port] Documentation server (default port 9898)
- -w [port], --workbench[=port] Workbench server (default port 9899)
- -s [port], --sso[=port] SSO server (default port 9901)
- -a [port], --api[=port] API server (default port 9900)
- -k, --keep Keep servers
- --ssh Enable SSH access to server containers
- -h, --help Display this help and exit
+ -d[port], --doc[=port] Documentation server (default port 9898)
+ -w[port], --workbench[=port] Workbench server (default port 9899)
+ -s[port], --sso[=port] SSO server (default port 9901)
+ -a[port], --api[=port] API server (default port 9900)
+ -c, --compute Compute nodes (starts 2)
+ -v, --vm Shell server
+ -n, --nameserver Nameserver
+ -k, --keep Keep servers
+ --ssh Enable SSH access to server containers
+ -h, --help Display this help and exit
If no options are given, the action is applied to all servers.
