oddgen demo using an Oracle Database 12.2.0.1 Enterprise Edition with non-CDB architecture
This project has been deprecated in favor of the docker-odb. This repository will not be updated anymore.
Dockerfile including scripts to build an image containing the following:
This image supports CDB and non-CDB architecture. The latter is the default. Please note that the non-CDB architecture is deprecated with Oracle 12.2.0.1. See Oracle Database Upgrade Guide for more information.
Due to OTN Developer License Terms I cannot make this image available on a public Docker registry.
Complete the following steps to create a new container:
Create the container
docker run -d -p 8080-8081:8080-8081 -p 1521:1521 -h odb --name odb phsalvisberg/oddgendemo
wait around 25 minutes until the Oracle database instance is created and APEX is updated to the latest version. Check logs with docker logs -f -t odb
. The container is ready to use when the last line in the log is Database ready to use. Enjoy! ;-)
. The container stops if an error occurs. Check the logs to determine how to proceed.
Feel free to stop the docker container after a successful installation with docker stop -t 60 odb
. The container should shutdown the database gracefully within the given 60 seconds and persist the data fully (ready for backup). Next time you start the container using docker start odb
the database will start up.
You may set the environment variables in the docker run statement to configure the container setup process. The following table lists all environment variables with its default values:
Environment variable | Default value | Comments |
---|---|---|
MULTITENANT | false |
Set to true if you want to create a database with CDB architecture. |
DBEXPRESS | true |
Set to false if you do not want to use Enterprise Manger Database Express. |
APEX | true |
Set to false if you do not want to install Oracle Application Express (container will be created faster). |
ORDS | true |
Set to false if you do not want to install Oracle REST Data Services. |
DBCA_TOTAL_MEMORY | 2048 |
Memory in kilobytes for the Database Creation Assistent. |
GDBNAME | odb.docker |
Global database name, used by DBCA |
ORACLE_SID | odb |
Oracle System Identifier |
SERVICE_NAME | odb.docker |
Oracle Service Name (for the container database) |
PDB_NAME | opdb1 |
Name of the pluggable database |
PDB_SERVICE_NAME | opdb1.docker |
Oracle Service Name for the pluggable database |
PASS | oracle |
Password for SYS, SYSTEM, APEX_LISTENER, APEX_PUBLIC_USER, APEX_REST_PUBLIC_USER, ORDS_PUBLIC_USER |
APEX_PASS | Oracle12c! |
Initial APEX ADMIN password |
Here’s an example run call amending the PASS environment variable skip APEX installation:
docker run -e PASS=manager -e APEX=false -d -p 8080-8081:8080-8081 -p 1521:1521 -h odb --name odb phsalvisberg/oddgendemo
Here’s an other example createing a container database and extending the database port ranges to cover a total of three pluggable databases:
docker run -e MULTITENANT=true -d -p 8080-8081:8080-8081 -p 1521-1523:1521-1523 -h ocdb --name ocdb phsalvisberg/oddgendemo
The image defines a volume for /u01/app/oracle
. You may map this volume to a storage solution of your choice. Here’s an example using a named volume odb
:
docker run -v odb:/u01/app/oracle -d -p 8080-8081:8080-8081 -p 1521:1521 -h odb --name odb phsalvisberg/oddgendemo
Here’s an example mapping the local directory $HOME/docker/odb/u01/app/oracle
to /u01/app/oracle
.
docker run -v $HOME/docker/odb/u01/app/oracle:/u01/app/oracle -d -p 8080-8081:8080-8081 -p 1521:1521 -h odb --name odb phsalvisberg/oddgendemo
Please note: Volumes mapped to local directories are not stable, at least not in Docker for Mac 1.12.0. E.g. creating a database may never finish. So I recommend not to use local mapped directories for the time being. Alternatively you may use a volume plugin. A comprehensive list of volume plugins is listed here.
The default timezone of the container is UTC. To query the available timezones run:
docker exec odb ls -RC /usr/share/zoneinfo
To change the timezone to “Central European Time (CET)” run the following two commands:
docker exec odb unlink /etc/localtime
docker exec odb ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Zurich /etc/localtime
Restart your container to ensure the new setting take effect.
docker restart -t 60 odb
User | Password |
---|---|
system | oracle |
sys | oracle |
Property | Value |
---|---|
Workspace | INTERNAL |
User | ADMIN |
Password | Oracle12c! |
To access the database e.g. from SQL Developer you configure the following properties:
Property | Value |
---|---|
Hostname | localhost |
Port | 1521 |
SID | odb |
Service | odb.docker |
The configured user with their credentials are:
User | Password |
---|---|
system | oracle |
sys | oracle |
apex_listener | oracle |
apex_rest_public_user | oracle |
apex_public_user | oracle |
ords_public_user | oracle |
scott | tiger |
hr | hr |
oe | oe |
pm | pm |
ix | ix |
sh | sh |
bi | bi |
ftldb | ftldb |
teplsql | teplsql |
oddgen | oddgen |
ogdemo | ogdemo |
Use the following connect string to connect as scott via SQL*Plus or SQLcl: scott/tiger@localhost/odb.docker
Complete the following steps to backup the data volume:
Stop the container with
docker stop -t 30 odb
Backup the data volume to a compressed file odb.tar.gz
in the current directory with a little help from the ubuntu image
docker run --rm --volumes-from odb -v $(pwd):/backup ubuntu tar czvf /backup/odb.tar.gz /u01/app/oracle
Restart the container
docker start odb
Complete the following steps to restore an image from scratch. There are other ways, but this procedure is also applicable to restore a database on another machine:
Stop the container with
docker stop -t 30 odb
Remove the container with its associated volume
docker rm -v odb
Remove unreferenced volumes, e.g. explicitly created volumes by previous restores
docker volume ls -qf dangling=true | xargs docker volume rm
Create an empty data volume named odb
docker volume create --name odb
Populate data volume odb
with backup from file odb.tar.gz
with a little help from the ubuntu image
docker run --rm -v odb:/u01/app/oracle -v $(pwd):/backup ubuntu tar xvpfz /backup/odb.tar.gz -C /
Create the container using the odb
volume
docker run -v odb:/u01/app/oracle -d -p 8080-8081:8080-8081 -p 1521:1521 -h odb --name odb phsalvisberg/oddgendemo
Check log of odb
container
docker logs odb
The end of the log should look as follows:
Reuse existing database.
(...)
Database ready to use. Enjoy! ;-)
