# IICS Secure Agent Docker Image # IICS Secure Agent Docker Image
## Description ## Description
This project was forked from [jbrazda/ic-sagent-docker|https://github.com/jbrazda/ic-sagent-docker] with the intention of containerizing the IICS Secure Agent to run in Amazon Web Services. As of early January 2019, there is no official Docker image for IICS Secure Agent.

## Requirements ## Requirements
* Docker.
* Docker
* An IICS user account and password for your organization that has appropriate rights to create and manage secure agents. This user will be used to login to the Informatica APIs to register the agent. * An IICS user account and password for your organization that has appropriate rights to create and manage secure agents. This user will be used to login to the Informatica APIs to register the agent.
* Your Informatica POD and REGION, which can be inferred from https://${POD}.${REGION}.informaticacloud.com/. Defaults are set to POD=usw3 and REGION=dm-us, but can be overriden with Docker environment variables. * Your Informatica POD and REGION, which can be inferred from https://${POD}.${REGION}.informaticacloud.com/. Defaults are set to POD=usw3 and REGION=dm-us, but can be overriden with Docker environment variables.
## The image ## The Image
The image is based on Ubuntu 18.04. It downloads and installs necessary dependencies, and then downloads the installer file from the correct Informatica URL based on your POD and REGION.

1. Clone this repository 1. Clone this repository.
2. `docker build . -t secure-agent` Optionally pass --build-arg parameters for POD and REGION if the defaults are not correct. POD and REGION are also set as environment variables, because containers will use these values for communicating with the Informatica API. 2. `docker build . -t iics_secure_agent:<tag>` - optionally pass --build-arg parameters for POD and REGION if the defaults are not correct. POD and REGION are also set as environment variables, because containers will use these values for communicating with the Informatica API.
## Containers ## Containers
The container executes a bash script called run_agent.sh upon start. It needs INFORMATICA_USER and INFORMATICA_PASSWORD environment variables set during runtime in order to communicate with the Informatica API to check and register the Secure Agent. The container executes a bash script called run_agent.sh upon start. It needs INFORMATICA_USER and INFORMATICA_PASSWORD environment variables set during runtime in order to communicate with the Informatica API to check and register the Secure Agent.
### Environment variables ### Environment Variables
* INFORMATICA_USER (required) - User that can run the agent and access Informatica APIs * INFORMATICA_USER (required) - User that can run the agent and access Informatica APIs
* INFORMATICA_PASSWORD (required) - Password for above credential. Used for API access only. * INFORMATICA_PASSWORD (required) - Password for above credential. Used for API access only.
* JSON_LOG (optional) - If this is set, then the log output will be in JSON format. * JSON_LOG (optional) - If this is set, then the log output will be in JSON format.
### Volumes ### Externalized Configurations
Secure Agent's configurations can be externalized using Docker [volumes](https://docs.docker.com/storage/volumes/). Following
Secure Agent's directories and files can be externalized for containers. Note that after initial
container startup, these configurations can be used to start subsequent containers.
* `agentcore.log` - Secure Agent default runtime log file.
* `infaagent.log` - Secure Agent start up log file.
* `logs` - contains Secure Agent runtime log files and lock files.
* `data` - contains the configuration data for mapping and integration components.
* `conf` - contains Secure Agent runtime configuration files.
1. `infaagent.ini` - contains the registration information for the secure agent(this will be populated by Secure Agent during start up).
2. `proxy.ini` - proxy configurations for Secure Agent, if running behind a [proxy](https://kb.informatica.com/howto/6/pages/20/512361.aspx) server.
* Log files - tomcat log files are in the WORKDIR/logs directory. agentcore.log and infaagent.log are in the WORKDIR directory Following ports(among others) in Secure Agents can be mapped to host for externalized control.
* Infaagent.ini - in WORKDIR/conf/infaagent.ini. Contains the registration information for the secure agent * `7080` - Process Engine shutdown port.
* data - Not sure what this does right now and whether this needs to be mounted as a volume. * `7443` - Process Engine https port.
* `5432` - Process Engine Postgres DB port.
See below section for examples on how to use volume and port mapping.
### Starting ### Starting
Setting the hostname will provide the associated name in the IICS web site. * Setting the hostname will provide the associated name in the IICS website.
* Note: since anybody who has access to see the processes can view the values `INFORMATICA_USER` and `INFORMATICA_PASSWORD`, it's
recommenced to configure them in a Docker [.env](https://docs.docker.com/compose/env-file/) file.
`docker run -d -h <hostname> --env INFORMATICA_USER=xxxxx --env INFORMATICA_PASSWORD=xxxx --name <container_name> <image_name:image_tag>` ```shell
$ touch agentcore.log infaagent.log
$ docker run -d \
-h <hostname> \
--env INFORMATICA_USER=xxxxx \
--env INFORMATICA_PASSWORD=xxxx \
-v $(pwd)/infaagent.log:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/infaagent.log \
-v $(pwd)/agentcore.log:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/agentcore.log \
-v $(pwd)/logs:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/logs \
-v $(pwd)/data:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/data \
-p 7080:7080 \
-p 7443:7443 \
-p 5432:5432 \
--name <container_name> iics_secure_agent:<tag>
```
* Note that if `conf` directory needs mounting, a minimum configuration for starting the Secure Agent is required, see [conf](./conf) for example.
```shell
$ touch agentcore.log infaagent.log
$ docker run -d \
-h <hostname> \
--env INFORMATICA_USER=xxxxx \
--env INFORMATICA_PASSWORD=xxxx \
-v $(pwd)/infaagent.log:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/infaagent.log \
-v $(pwd)/agentcore.log:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/agentcore.log \
-v $(pwd)/logs:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/logs \
-v $(pwd)/data:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/data \
-v $(pwd)/conf:/home/agent/infaagent/apps/agentcore/conf \
-p 7080:7080 \
-p 7443:7443 \
-p 5432:5432 \
--name <container_name> iics_secure_agent:<tag>
```
### Monitoring ### Monitoring
If volume mapping is not used use `docke exec` to attach to the running container.
```shell ```shell
docker exec -it ic-agent1 less agentCore.log docker exec -it <container_name> less agentCore.log
``` ```

* Doesn't seem to be able to run in host network mode because it won't be able to talk to internal ports. It would probably work if you expose those ports. * Doesn't seem to be able to run in host network mode because it won't be able to talk to internal ports.
