Alternate Host Name Environment Variables

  • postgres: HUB_POSTGRES_HOST, HUB_POSTGRES_PORT

  • registration: HUB_REGISTRATION_HOST, HUB_REGISTRATION_PORT

  • logstash: HUB_LOGSTASH_HOST

  • cfssl: HUB_CFSSL_HOST, HUB_CFSSL_PORT

  • rabbitmq: RABBIT_MQ_HOST, RABBIT_MQ_PORT
Resources/Constraints

Set in the gen05 sizings.
Users/Groups

This container runs as UID 8080. If the container is started as UID 0 (root) then the user will be switched to UID 8080:root before executing its main process.

This container is also able to be started as a random UID as long as it is also started within the root group (GID/fsGroup 0).
