Software Container node

A Software Container node represents an instance of a software container, such as a Docker container, running in the environment. Software Container nodes represent the containers, rather than any management software such as the Docker Engine. The Docker Engine and its equivalent for other providers is modeled using an SI.

Note

Software containers are not synchronized to the CMDB. The transient nature and purpose of software containers means that synchronizing them might cause excessive churn in the CMDB. However, to ensure that the CMDB reflects the state of the container software configuration, the related SIs, load balancers, and deployment information are synchronized as usual. 

Software Container node lifecycle

The following section describes the scenarios in which a Software Container node is created, updated or destroyed.

Creation

Software Container nodes are created by patterns which trigger on an SI representing container management software, such as the Docker Engine. When such a pattern triggers, it requests information on the containers that the management software is running. A Software Container node is created for each container reported by the management software.

AIX Application WPARs are also modeled using Software Container nodes. In this case, the pattern triggers on hostinfo. 

Update and removal

Software Container nodes are updated when patterns request information from the container management software. A Software Container node is:

  • Updated for each existing container reported by the management software.
  • Removed where previously existing containers are no longer reported by the management software. This is an Authoritative Removal type, see Authoritative Removal.
