Module-0

Module 0: Access your Docker Lab Development Box

If you decided not to follow along with this lab on your local host with docker pre-installed, you can gain access to your cloud hosted student development box for development. This VM comes pre-installed with Docker and all dependencies required to complete this lab.

This module will be used at ServTech 2017 for TechTables. Cloud hosted resources will only available during the allotted Session time slots.

Accessing your VM

1. Navigate to https://portal.sl.americasreadiness.com to access your HTML5 based VM console through Guacamole.

2. Logon using your username and password :

   • Username: UserX
   • Password: XXXXXX (given out at the time of session)

   X in 'UserX' corresponds to your student number (1 through 7). For example, if you are student 1, you will logon with username user1 and password Password01.

3. You will enter directly into a CLI interface of an Ubuntu Docker host which you will use to learn more about docker. A few things to note about the HTML5 based console:

   • If you need to change input methods to copy and paste text into the CLI, press the keys: alt + ctrl + shift to toggle the side pane.
   • You can select None which directly translates keyboard inputs into the CLI
   • You can select Text Input for a text form field entry to copy and paste large amounts of text.
   • You can also select On-Screen Keyboard if you are on a tablet or touch screen device without a proper keyboard input device.
   • Be sure to use the Clipboard text box on the left. If you would like to paste text into the console, somply right click into the CLI screen.
