Building a container image

Prerequisites

You need to have the following tools installed:

If you are working in the Windows Subsystem for Linux, follow this guide by Microsoft to set up Docker first.

You will also need a Red Hat Account to be able to access the Red Hat Registry.

Building your MFT container image

This procedure works for building the MQ Managed File Transfer Redistributable package on amd64 architectures.

  1. Clone the GitHub repository to local directory.

  2. Login to the Red Hat Registry: podman login registry.redhat.io using your Customer Portal credentials.

  3. Navigate to directory where Dockerfile-agent is located.

  4. Download 9.4.1.0-IBM-MQFA-Redist-LinuxX64.tar.gz or higher from IBM Fixcentral into the current directory. Note: The redistributable MFT package must be present in same path as the Dockerfile-agent file.

  5. Unpack the 9.4.1.0-IBM-MQFA-Redist-LinuxX64.tar.gz to a temporay directory. Copy com.ibm.wmqfte.com.ibm.wmqfte.exitroutines.api.jar to credentialsexit/BridgeCredentialExit/thirdparty directory.

  6. Download json-20240303.jar file from Maven Repository and copy to credentialsexit/BridgeCredentialExit/thirdparty directory.

  7. Run the following command to build container image

    podman build -f Dockerfile-agent -t mqmft:9.4.1.0 --build-arg ARG_MQMFT_REDIST_FILE=9.4.1.0-IBM-MQFA-Redist-LinuxX64.tar.gz .

    You can replace the 9.4.1.0-IBM-MQFA-Redist-LinuxX64.tar.gz with the version of the redistributable package of your choice.
