This procedure describes how you can update System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) containers if a new version of the rhel7/sssd image is released.

Procedure

  1. Stop the SSSD service:

    1. If SSSD is running as a system container: 

      # systemctl stop sssd
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

    2. If SSSD is running as an application container: 

      # atomic stop <container_name>
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  2. Use the docker rm command to remove the image: 

    # docker rm rhel7/sssd
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  3. Install the latest SSSD image: 

    # atomic install rhel7/sssd
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  4. Start the SSSD service:

      # systemctl start sssd
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
