Mirroring Siebel CRM Base Images

You can mirror the Siebel CRM base images that SCM uses to provision a Siebel CRM environment, to a user defined destination registry through the base/images/mirror API. The API call pulls the container images and pushes them to the user defined destination registry.

To mirror the base images, call the base/images/mirror API as follows:

POST endpoint:

https://<CM_Instance_IP>:<port_num>/scm/api/v1.0/base/images/mirror

Sample payload:

{
      "destination_registry": {
            "registry_url": "iad.ocir.io",
            "registry_user": "deploygroup/user.name@example.com",
            "registry_password": "aDgFFg123",
            "registry_prefix": "deploygroup"
      },
      "update_global_config": "true"
}

Note: Specify the value of payload parameters suitable for your circumstances by referring to the payload parameters in the Parameters in Payload Content table.

For every image mirroring process job triggered via the POST API, a unique 6 character identifier "RUN_ID" is generated through which you can check status of the job. To get the details of the current job, execute a GET method API call as follows:

GET endpoint:

https://<CM_Instance_IP>:<port_num>/scm/api/v1.0/base/images/mirror/<RUN_ID>

Sample response:

Parameters in Response Definition

The following table describes the parameters in the response:

Payload Parameter	Section	Definition
image_mirror_details	Top level	Provides the details of the image mirroring process.
start_time	image_mirror_details	The time when the image mirroring process started.
end_time	image_mirror_details	The time when the image mirroring process finished.
images	image_mirror_details	A dictionary containing individual images and their respective upload statuses.
start_time	images	The time when this specific image started uploading.
end_time	images	The time when this specific image finished uploading.
message	images	Status message for the specific image upload process.
images_processed	image_mirror_details	The number of images processed so far during the mirroring process.
run_id	image_mirror_details	Unique identifier for tracking the current image mirroring process.
status	image_mirror_details	The overall status of the image mirroring process (in-progress, completed, failed).
total_images	image_mirror_details	The total number of images scheduled for mirroring in the process.
update_global_config	image_mirror_details	Indicates whether the destination registry details was saved to the global configuration for future use.
message	Top level	A general message describing the current status of the image mirroring operation.
status	Top level	Indicates the success or failure of the API request (success, failed).

Note: If you're using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Registry (OCIR) as the destination registry, ensure that registry_user has permission to create the repository name (for example, project01/acme-web-app/component1) in the root compartment, or you should create the repositories before pushing images. The /home/opc/siebel-cloud-manager/scripts/cmapp/yaml/siebel_images.yaml file in the SCM container will contain a list of images, and the corresponding repository paths need to be created in OCIR.

For more information, see the Creating a Repository topic in the OCI documentation.
