mrcl3 / archiver-appliance-with-example-ioc

A deployment of my Docker image of the EPICS Archiver Appliance with an example IOC and a Redis DB for persistence

Docker-Compose Deployment of Archiver Appliance with Example IOC

This respository in an example deployment of my Docker image of the EPICS Archiver Appliance (on Docker Hub and on Github) bundled together with an EPICS example IOC and a Redis database.

Redis is used for the persistance of the appliance configuration, see the RedisPersistence class.

Data is stored in ./storage/{sts,mts,lts} mounted from the host.

Usage

Run:

docker-compose up

In a browser, open http://localhost:17665/mgmt/ui/index.html. It might take ~20-30 seconds until the tomcat server is fully up and running, so if you get the following error, just refresh the page after a couple of seconds:

HTTP Status 503 – Service Unavailable
This appliance is still starting up

On this home page of the archiver appliance, you can add the PVs served by the example IOC by entering the following lines in the input field and then clicking the [Archive] button:
