Hello All,
This post is about how to use Docker and utilize oracle container registry i.e oracle official docker hub.
Until now,I am using open source/public docker images from dockerhub, Today I had a final look on Oracle Container Registry which having Official Oracle Docker Images with different products like FMW,Database,Goldengate,Java, Coherence,Weblogic.
These two locations we can find Oracle Docker Images
- https://container-registry.oracle.com
- https://store.docker.com/search?certification_status=certified&q=oracle&source=verified&type=image
And there is github official repository as well.
Those who are not familiar with docker, its just simple. All of us are using Oracle Virtual Box/VM etc for Virtualization, how ever if you want to use a virtual box first you need to install the OS on virtual machine, in Docker, your host OS is shared among all other containers (aka virtual images) or the docker image will have its own OS too. All you need Install docker, download image, run the image. Thats it. :). I will write a post on managing docker separately .
Let's have a quick install and look at container-registry.
Install docker for windows using following link (You need to have virtualisation enabled in your machine)
https://store.docker.com/editions/community/docker-ce-desktop-windows
Then log into https://container-registry.oracle.com with your single sign on account.
As you see above Coherance, Databases, Java,Middleware,MySQL, OS and Openstack are the current categogies and docker images available. Click on the Databases.
There you find the enterprise,standard, instant client for oracle database. click on any enterprise or standard, you will be asked to accept terms and conditions, You click on button, on the right of the following screen. I already accepted hence I do not have it to show you
Currently with Oracle database the following limitations are there
- This Docker image release supports only single database instance.
- Dataguard feature is not supported.
When you click on the enterprise again you will be open with documentation how you can use this image.
The highlighted are the two commands really you need to do to get a database up and running. (You must have a decent internet connection to download the 2.5gb of database image).
At this point, you have installed docker and you have container-registry account.
Open a command prompt and pull the docker image first. It will prompt you to login your sso account. While pulling the image if you receive access denied error that means you have not accepted the terms and conditions in browser, accept it and then pull again.
Once you pulled the images, run using,
docker pull container-registry.oracle.com/database/enterprise
For standard edition use ,
docker pull container-registry.oracle.com/database/standard
This will take time to download, once downloaded, run the image with, Just run the docker image without options,
Just run without options
docker run -d -it --name orcl12c container-registry.oracle.com/database/enterprise:12.2.0.1
Login to docker for sqlplus
docker exec -it orcl12c bash -c "source /home/oracle/.bashrc; sqlplus /nolog"
Run the image to ensure the database is accessible outside container -p is used
docker run -d -it --name orcl12c -P container-registry.oracle.com/database/enterprise:12.2.0.1
If you want to set options and few other params for databases run the following block, This will use this options, SID, PDB Name, Password and Characterset , lets run this one
docker run --name orcl12cr2 -p 1521:1521 -p 5500:5500 -e ORACLE_SID=ORCL12C -e ORACLE_PDB=PDB1 -e ORACLE_PWD=admin123 -e ORACLE_CHARACTERSET=AL32UTF8 - container-registry.oracle.com/database/enterprise:12.2.0.1

Find the tns details using
docker port oracleDB
C:\Users\gandhi>docker port orcl12cr2
1521/tcp -> 0.0.0.0:1521
5500/tcp -> 0.0.0.0:5500
Then connect using sqlplus, but in order to work connection outside of container works you must run the container with -P or -p option and the default sys password is Oracdoc_db1
sqlplus sys/Oradoc_db1@ORCLCDB as sysdba
Let's look at environment, the filesystem and enviornment variables inside the container
docker exec -it orcl12cr2 bash
Let's check the alert log, docker has option logs, which shows alert log, and also you can tail it using -f and since how many mins you want ,
docker logs orcl12cr2 -f --since 10m
For your knowledge purpose , /home/oracle/setup/ contains all the files that docker use for setup etc.
Hope you liked it, Dockers provides much quicker provisioning and provides flexibility and feasibility for a devops model in database domain.
Next post we will be seeing Oracle Container for MySQL and Weblogic
-Thanks
