Docker Installs with Preinstalled Image

Prerequisites

To install, you need:

  • A valid LeanXcale license file

  • The LeanXcale docker image

  • A Linux system with

    • docker version 20.10.6 or later.

    • python 3.7 or later.

Your sales representative will provide you with a valid license file. In case you have any issues with it, please send an email to sales@leanxcale.com.

Download the latest LeanXcale docker image from:

https://artifactory.leanxcale.com/artifactory/lxpublic/

There is a docker image file per version.

Install

Working on the directory where the image file has been downloaded, add the image to your docker system:

unix$ docker load --input lx.2.1.docker.tgz
Loaded image: lx:2

Double check that the image has been loaded:

unix$ docker images lx:2
REPOSITORY   TAG       IMAGE ID       CREATED        SIZE
lx           2         bd350f734448   28 hours ago   1.33GB

Create the docker network lxnet:

unix$ docker network create --driver bridge lxnet

The image is a single one for all containers. The name given when creating the container determines the host name used (in this example, lx1).

Before using the system, a license file must be installed on each container created. This is explained in the next section.

To remove the image when so desired, use this command:

unix$ docker rmi lx:2
