OPCH Testing : 01 - Download Image and Connect Container to Factory Site

OBJECTIVE
Download the Docker image for the on-prem connector host (OPCH) and use 'docker run' to build and run it in a container connected to a remote Tulip Factory instance.
PRECONDITION
  1. 'docker' must be installed locally.
  2. 'docker' virtual disk limit must be greater than 2 GB to download the image.
  3. For a smooth testing experience, 'docker' available memory must be set to at least 4 GB of RAM, 1 GB of swap memory, and at least 2 CPUs.
  4. One must have the following credentials ready and available or made available through the commissioning of an OPCH using the following command:
  • mulch -t <target instance> create_connector_host_credentials --output docker <target name> "<connector-host-name>" '<connector-host-label>'
    • where <target instance> is the instance created for testing the LTS release (e.g. lts12.tulip.co)
      • this assumes that the related instance for the LTS release has been created by QA
    • <target name> the instance's name without the domain link (e.g. qa)
    • <connector-host-name> is the OPCH name that is created in the instance (try to make it unique)
    • <connector-host-label> is the OPCH image name that is running in docker
    • the result of this command will include the script to be run in Step 1
