Chapter 32. Working with Fabric Containers

32.1. Creating a new child container
Copia collegamento

A child container is created on the server where its parent is.

To create a new child container:

If necessary, in Fabric Explorer, expand the tree of the selected fabric in which you want to create the new child container.
Right-click the target parent container to open the context menu, and then select Create a new child container.

In Container name, enter a name for the new child container.
We recommend that you replace the default name with a meaningful name that identifies the container's role or function.
If multiple versions exist, you can select one from the Version drop-down list. Otherwise, accept the default value.
Under Profiles, click the checkbox next to the profile or profiles you want to assign to the new child container.
Profiles determine the function of containers; what applications they run. You can assign multiple profiles to a container, as long as the applications they install do not conflict with one another.
Important
Do not assign a base profile (one ending in -base) to a container.
Click OK.
The new child container appears in Fabric Explorer as a node under Containers
Note
Selecting the new container in Fabric Explorer populates its Profiles and Profile Details pages in Properties viewer.
