Goal

• To run MariaDB container
• To edit DB configuration including memory parameter and connector

Intro

• Install MariaDB in IBM Linux using docker
• I already received docker image in advance.

Practice

1. Run container

1.1 Check Docker images

# docker images

1.2. Create container from image

# docker run --name [CONTAINER_NAME] -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWERD=[PASSWORD] -d [IMAGE_NAME{:TAG}]

# docker ps

–name : Container’s name

-e, –env : Set environment variables

-d, –detach : Run container in background and print container ID

1.3. Interface TTY with container

# docker exec -it [CONTAINER_NAME] /bin/bash

-i, –interactive : Keep STDIN open even if not attached

-t, –tty : Allocate a pseudo-TTY

1.4. Install vim

• Update apt-get

(container)# apt-get update

• Install vim

(container)# apt-get install vim

1.5 Edit MariaDB configuration

1.6. Restart container

# docker restart [CONTAINER_NAME]
