This section explains how to start a TDV Docker container on a Docker environment hosted on the Windows platform. The bridge and user specified bridge network options in Docker should work for a TDV Container on this platform.

Resource configuration: small (poc/demo): 2 CPUs/cores, 8 GB memory, external container volume tdv-vol with 8 GB persistent readable/writable storage.

Windows specific configuration: -p <host-port>:<container-port> for all DV ports exposed and --hostname=localhost or --hostname=<ip-or-hostname>

TDV configuration: base port (9400), admin password (default), server memory (default). Refer to the Dockerfile.tdv for TDV Docker image default values.

Note:

The TDV Docker image uses a Linux base OS. This means if you are running Docker on Windows then you need to make sure Docker is set to use Linux containers. For more details, see https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/#switch-between-windows-and-linux-containers.

If you have issues connecting to your TDV Docker container (specifically accessing TDV via localhost and TDV port), then you may need to add "--hostname=<ip-or-hostname>" in addition to the other docker run options. The --hostname parameter sets the IP address or Hostname that the server listens to for client connections. This command may take a few seconds to execute.
