Prepare Your Environment

  1. Set up your Kubernetes Cluster
  2. Check the Kubernetes Cluster is Ready
  3. Install the Oracle Internet Directory Image
  4. Setup the Code Repository To Deploy Oracle Internet Directory

Set up your Kubernetes Cluster

If you need help setting up a Kubernetes environment, check our cheat sheet.

It is recommended you have a master node and one or more worker nodes. The examples in this documentation assume one master and two worker nodes.

After creating Kubernetes clusters, you can optionally:

  • Configure an Ingress to direct traffic to backend instances.

Check the Kubernetes Cluster is Ready

  1. Run the following command on the master node to check the cluster and worker nodes are running:
$ kubectl get nodes,pods -n kube-system

The output will look similar to the following:

Install the Oracle Internet Directory Image

You can deploy Oracle Internet Directory images in the following ways:

  1. Download a pre-built Oracle Internet Directory image from My Oracle Support. by referring to the document ID 2723908.1. This image is prebuilt by Oracle and includes Oracle Internet Directory 12.2.1.4.0 and the latest PSU.
  2. Build your own Oracle Internet Directory container image either by using the WebLogic Image Tool or by using the dockerfile, scripts and base image from Oracle Container Registry (OCR). You can also build your own image by using only the dockerfile and scripts. For more information about the various ways in which you can build your own container image, see Installing the Oracle Internet Directory Image.

Choose one of these options based on your requirements.

The Oracle Internet Directory image must be installed on the master node and each of the worker nodes in your Kubernetes cluster. Alternatively you can place the image in a docker registry that your cluster can access.

After installing the Oracle Internet Directory image run the following command to make sure the image is installed correctly on the master and worker nodes:

$ docker images

The output will look similar to the following:

Setup the Code Repository To Deploy Oracle Internet Directory

Oracle Internet Directory deployment on Kubernetes leverages deployment scripts provided by Oracle for creating Oracle Internet Directory containers using samples or Helm charts provided. To deploy Oracle Internet Directory on Kubernetes you should set up the deployment scripts on the master node as below:

Create a working directory to setup the source code.

$ mkdir <work directory>

For example:

$ mkdir /scratch/OIDContainer

From the directory you created, download the Oracle Internet Directory deployment scripts from the Oracle Internet Directory repository.

$ git clone https://github.com/oracle/fmw-kubernetes.git --branch release/21.4.1

You can now use the deployment scripts from <work directory>/fmw-kubernetes/OracleInternetDirectory/kubernetes/samples/ to set up the Oracle Internet Directory environments as further described in this document.
