Import Docker Images for an Offline Installation of the PubSub Beat

To install docker images, which allows for Open Collector to operate offline, do the following:

  1. Remove the previous versions.yml file if one exists.

    BASH
     rm -f versions.yml
  2. Download and copy all the artifacts below to the virtual machine. 

    Before extracting the .tar files into docker images, Docker must be installed.

    If the Docker is already installed, skip to step 6.

  3. Extract docker_20_10_8.tar.gz:

    BASH
    tar xzvf /path/to/docker_20_10_8.tar.gz
  4. Move the binaries to /usr/bin/:

    BASH
    cp docker/* /usr/bin/
  5. Start the Docker Daemon:

    BASH
    dockerd &
  6. Before downloading the artifacts, remove any running container(s) and the images related to that container. 

    1. To stop all the running components, run the following command: 

      BASH
      docker rm -f $(docker ps -aq)
    2. Next, remove all the docker images in the system:

      BASH
      docker rmi -f $(docker images -aq)
  7. To extract a docker image from a .tar file, use the following command:

    BASH
    docker load < <image-name>.tar

  8. Repeat step 7 to extract any additional .tar files.
  9. Place lrctl and versions.yml in the same folder.
  10. Execute this command after step 9.

    BASH
    ./lrctl autoupdate disable

Use "-V versions.yml"  with every command while working with the beat.

BASH
./lrctl -V versions.yml pubsubbeat start


Once all the .tar files have been extracted, start the Open Collector and PubSub Beat as normal by following the steps at .Configure the PubSub Beat v2021.12.
