V2 over HTTPS with
basic authentication
The standard implementation is open sourced at
https://github.com/docker/distribution.
V2 over HTTPS with
authentication through
a central service
You can run a Docker registry in standalone mode, in which there are no
authorization checks. Supported third-party registries are JFrog Artifactory
and Harbor. Docker Hub is enabled by default for all tenants and is not
present in the registry list, but it can be disabled with a system property.
Note Docker does not normally interact with secure registries configured with certificates signed by
unknown authority. The container service handles this case by automatically uploading untrusted
certificates to all docker hosts and enabling the hosts to connect to these registries. If a certificate cannot
be uploaded to a given host, the host is automatically disabled.
Create and Manage Container Registries
You can configure multiple registries to gain access to both public and private images.
Registries are public or private stores, from which you upload or download images. You can disable, edit,
or delete the registries that you created. The images shown in the Templates tab are based on the
registries that you define.
When you create or manage registries in the Existing Registries page, you can click the Credentials or
Certificate buttons to add or manage credentials and certificates.
Prerequisites
n
Log in to vRealize Automation as a container administrator.
n
Verify that at least one host is configured and available for container network configuration.
Procedure
1 Click the Containers tab.
2 Click Registries.
The Existing Registries page appears.
3 Click +Registry.
4 Enter the registry address.
5 Enter a name for the registry.
6 Select your login credentials from the drop-down list.
7 (Optional) Click Verify to confirm that the configured parameters are valid.
8 Click Save to add the registry.
Configuring Network Resources for Containers
You can create, modify, and attach network configurations to containers and container templates in the
Containers for vRealize Automation application.
