OCF_HEARTBEAT_DOCKER(7)	      OCF resource agents      OCF_HEARTBEAT_DOCKER(7)

NAME
       ocf_heartbeat_docker - Docker container resource	agent.

SYNOPSIS

       docker [start | stop | monitor |	meta-data | validate-all]

DESCRIPTION
       The docker HA resource agent creates and	launches a docker container
       based off a supplied docker image. Containers managed by	this agent are
       both created and	removed	upon the agent's start and stop	actions.

SUPPORTED PARAMETERS
       image
	   The docker image to base this container off of.

	   (required, string, no default)

       name
	   The name to give the	created	container. By default this will	be
	   that	resource's instance name.

	   (optional, string, no default)

       allow_pull
	   Allow the image to be pulled	from the configured docker registry
	   when	the image does not exist locally. NOTE,	this can drastically
	   increase the	time required to start the container if	the image
	   repository is pulled	over the network.

	   (optional, boolean, no default)

       run_opts
	   Add options to be appended to the 'docker run' command which	is
	   used	when creating the container during the start action. This
	   option allows users to do things such as setting a custom entry
	   point and injecting environment variables into the newly created
	   container. Note the '-d' option is supplied regardless of this
	   value to force containers to	run in the background.

	   NOTE: Do not	explicitly specify the --name argument in the
	   run_opts. This agent	will set --name	using either the resource's
	   instance or the name	provided in the	'name' argument	of this	agent.

	   (optional, string, no default)

       run_cmd
	   Specify a command to	launch within the container once it has
	   initialized.

	   (optional, string, no default)

       mount_points
	   A comma separated list of directories that the container is
	   expecting to	use. The agent will ensure they	exist by running
	   'mkdir -p'

	   (optional, string, no default)

       monitor_cmd
	   Specify the full path of a command to launch	within the container
	   to check the	health of the container. This command must return 0 to
	   indicate that the container is healthy. A non-zero return code will
	   indicate that the container has failed and should be	recovered.

	   If 'docker exec' is supported, it is	used to	execute	the command.
	   If not, nsenter is used.

	   Note: Using this method for monitoring processes inside a container
	   is not recommended, as containerd tries to track processes running
	   inside the container	and does not deal well with many short-lived
	   processes being spawned. Ensure that	your container monitors	its
	   own processes and terminates	on fatal error rather than invoking a
	   command from	the outside.

	   (optional, string, no default)

       force_kill
	   Kill	a container immediately	rather than waiting for	it to
	   gracefully shutdown

	   (optional, boolean, no default)

       reuse
	   Allow the container to be reused once it is stopped.	By default,
	   containers get removed once they are	stopped. Enable	this option to
	   have	the particular one persist when	this happens.

	   (optional, boolean, default 0)

       query_docker_health
	   Query the builtin healthcheck of docker (v1.12+) to determine
	   health of the container. If left empty or set to false it will not
	   be used.

	   The healthcheck itself has to be configured within docker, e.g. via
	   HEALTHCHECK in Dockerfile. This option just queries in what
	   condition docker considers the container to be and lets ocf do its
	   thing accordingly.

	   Note	that the time a	container is in	"starting" state counts
	   against the monitor timeout.

	   This	is an additional check besides the standard check for the
	   container to	be running, and	the optional monitor_cmd check.	It
	   doesn't disable or override them, so	all of them (if	used) have to
	   come	back healthy for the container to be considered	healthy.

	   (optional, boolean, no default)

SUPPORTED ACTIONS
       This resource agent supports the	following actions (operations):

       start
	   Starts the resource.	Suggested minimum timeout: 90s.

       stop
	   Stops the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 90s.

       monitor
	   Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout:	30s.
	   Suggested interval: 30s.

       meta-data
	   Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested
	   minimum timeout: 5s.

       validate-all
	   Performs a validation of the	resource configuration.	Suggested
	   minimum timeout: 30s.

EXAMPLE	CRM SHELL
       The following is	an example configuration for a docker resource using
       the crm(8) shell:

	   primitive p_docker ocf:heartbeat:docker \
	     params \
	       image=string \
	     op	monitor	timeout="30s" interval="30s" depth="0"

EXAMPLE	PCS
       The following is	an example configuration for a docker resource using
       pcs(8)

	   pcs resource	create p_docker	ocf:heartbeat:docker \
	     image=string \
	     op	monitor	timeout="30s" interval="30s" OCF_CHECK_LEVEL="0"
