Step 5: Configure the Docker File

The Docker file is used to build the TIBCO MFT Platform Server for UNIX container.

    Procedure
  1. Configure the Docker file based on your requirements.
    The Docker file performs the following functions:
    • Installs the Unix version and debugging tools.
    • Sets environment variables that can be overridden by the Docker build.
    • Creates MFT groups and users.
    • Copies the Platform Server distribution. If you are running as a non-root user, make sure the directories have the correct rights and attributes.
    • Defines the user that the container runs under.
    • Sets the Platform Server CFROOT environment variable and create the bash_profile file.
