--In the current runtime architecture of eMagiz, Docker technology is used to deploy runtimes. eMagiz creates specific runtime images that contain the eMagiz runtime, and can be deployed in dockerized environments.

++In the new runtime architecture of eMagiz, Docker technology is used to deploy runtimes. eMagiz creates specific runtime images that contain the eMagiz runtime, and can be deployed in dockerized environments.
++
++In the below section the Windows and Linux variants are described in terms of how to prepare the server to allow the eMagiz Deploy agent to be installed. That agent allows to download images from the eMagiz infrastructure.
++
  == 3. On-premises deployments ==
  ===3.1 General requirements===
++These are the general requirements to allow the installation of the eMagiz Docker agent:
++* Ensure access to the following URLs is enabled
++    ** registry.emagiz.com:443
++    ** controlplane.emagiz.com:8000
++    ** Preferably the entry should be *.emagiz.com
--{{info}}It is advised to use Docker version 29.1.3 as this is the version being used in the latest eMagiz cloud template. We advise aligning the on-premise Docker version and updating it according to the release notes of the [[Cloud templates>>doc:Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates.WebHome||target="blank"]].
--{{/info}}
++===3.2 Installation requirements Linux===
++Whenever Linux is selected as operating system, the latest version of Ubuntu will work. Other Linux distributions will also work such as Debian or Red Hat.
++**Step 1: Install linux distribution**
++Follow the relevant steps in section 3.4
--{{info}}
--* When **your** security requirements require **DNS Whitelisting**, the following DNS-level configuration is needed to communicate with our infrastructure and the specific eMagiz model(s) you need to connect to. These IP addresses are subject to periodic change on our end.

--    ** controlbus.emagiz.com:443
--    ** {yourcloudslotid}.emagizcloud.com:8443
--
--* Preferably we suggest to implement the following entries on DNS level.
--    ** *.emagizcloud.com
--    ** *.emagiz.com

++===3.3 Installation requirements Windows Server 2022 ===
--===3.2 Installation Windows===
--When Windows is selected as the operating system, you need Windows Server 2022. Older Windows servers are **not** supported.
++{{info}}Please note that this section also applies to Windows Server 2019 version >1806{{/info}}
--==== 3.2.1 Docker Installation ====
--To install Docker on your machine, execute the following commands in PowerShell with administrative rights:
++The steps below will install a linux subsystem under Windows. In that Linux system, Docker and Java will be installed. Please note that the Windows server needs to be able to run Virtualized (either via BIOS setting or via Nested Virtualization).
++**Step 1: Install linux distribution**
++
  {{code language="cmd"}}
--Invoke-WebRequest -UseBasicParsing "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emagiz/windows-support/main/Install-update-docker/install-update-docker.ps1" -o install-update-docker-ce.ps1

++  wsl --install -d Ubuntu
++  sudo apt-get update
++  sudo apt install --no-install-recommends apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg2
++  . /etc/os-release
  {{/code}}
--==== 3.2.2 Customization ====
++**Step 2: Configure linux system**
++Please see section 3.4 for these these steps
--After installing Docker, you can stick with the standard configuration or adjust specific settings. Settings that can be of particular interest include the one that defines the IP address range your Docker installation will use to run containers, and the one that defines where to store data (i.e., containers and images). To check the full list of compatible configuration options for Windows, you can check: [[Configure Docker in Windows>>https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/manage-docker/configure-docker-daemon||target="blank"]].
++**Step 3: Update wsl config file **
++In this step we need to add or update the WSL config file that manages the resources of the Linux subsystem. Important resources to manage are the assigned memory and number of processors. For memory we recommend to review the mempory settings for the runtime that need to run on this server and add 762 MB to the total value of the heap and non-heap of these runtimes. For processor we recommend to set the value to 2 - depending on the amount of processors available on that machine
--{{warning}}Be aware that the customization will only take effect once you have restarted the machine.{{/warning}}
++First, locate the config file or add it to the location %USERPROFILE%. The name should be .wslconfig (no extension)
--===== 3.2.2.1 IP address range =====
--
--Below is the code needed to configure a different IP address range.
--
  {{code language="cmd"}}
--cd C:\ProgramData\Docker\config\daemon.json
--#Add the following lines
--{"fixed-cidr": "<ip-address>"}
++  #Add following lines
++
++  # Settings apply across all Linux distros running on WSL 2
++  [wsl2]
++  # Limits VM memory to use no more than 4 GB, this can be set as whole numbers using GB or MB
++  memory=16GB
++  # Sets the VM to use two virtual processors
++  processors=2
  {{/code}}
--===== 3.2.2.2 Data location =====
--
--Below is an example of switching from the default C directory ({{code language="cmd"}}c:\programdata\docker{{/code}}) to the D directory to store Docker data. Based on your internal configuration, you can choose the best suitable variant if needed. To do so, you can add the following attribute to the Docker daemon file:
++**Step 4: Auto start the linux subsystem when Windows server restarts **
  {{code language="cmd"}}
--cd C:\ProgramData\Docker\config\daemon.json
--#Add the following lines
--{
-- "data-root": "d:\\docker"
--}
--{{/code}}
++* Press Windows+R
++* Type shell:startup and press enter
++* Add or update file start_wsl.bat
++* Add following line into the document and save file
++  * wsl sudo /usr/bin/dockerd
++  {{/code}}
--{{warning}}Note that when you want to create multiple customizations to your configuration, the result in the daemon.json file should be a **valid** JSON structure{{/warning}}
++**Step 5: Install eMagiz Deploy Agent**
++Install the eMagiz Deploy agent as can be found in this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Intermediate Level.eMagiz Runtime Management.intermediate-runtime-management-deploy-agent.WebHome||target="blank"]].
--==== 3.2.3 Check installation ====
++===3.4 Installation steps to configure Linux subsystem ===
--After executing the commands above, the server will restart if required. After the restart, execute the following command
++**Step 1: Install Docker **
  {{code language="cmd"}}
--docker ps
++  curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/${ID}/gpg | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/docker.asc
++  echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/${ID} ${VERSION_CODENAME} stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list
++  sudo apt update
++  sudo apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
  {{/code}}
--If the command returns "command not found," please run the following command again.
++{{info}}
++ Requires ~335 Mb space to install

--=== 3.3 Update Docker ===
--When you are advised to update your Docker version, you can verify whether you are on the correct Docker version by executing the following command in PowerShell with administrative rights:
++This step ensures that the IP address range of the machine doesn't conflict with any IP address of the Linux subsystem. Below the recommended values depending on the range which can be filled in the value <ip-address> below:
++* 10.0.0.1/8
++  ** advised value 10.25.0.1/16
++* 172.16.0.1/12

--docker version
--{{/code}}
++sudo nano /etc/docker/daemon.json
--When this returns a version **lower** than the advised version shown under the "General requirements" section, you can update Docker on your machine. To do so, execute the following command in PowerShell with administrative rights:
++  #Add following lines
--{{code language="cmd"}}
--.\install-update-docker-ce.ps1 -DockerVersion DESIRED_VERSION
++  {"bip": "<ip-address>"}
  {{/code}}
--{{warning}}It may happen that, due to the update, your containers are no longer starting up. To resolve this, please restart the containers, which can be done via a deployment plan or the deploy architecture.{{/warning}}
