Docker installation while using 7.1.5
Hello all,
We are currently on Pega 7.1.5 and running on VM. We are planning to move to Docker installation . Does Pega supports Docker installation on 7.1.5 or upgrade required?
Even after an upgrade , how the agent configuration is supported in Pega? As of now, the agent configuration uses the host name or ID. However after docker installation the host names doesnt exists any more.

Hi,
If you will a different name while configuring Docker you have to modify the same for agents too.
So host name should be changed accordingly.
Thank You.

Than you for the response. I found the below line in this document. Thats why raised question about upgrade.
https://collaborate.pega.com/discussion/prpc-5x-6x-platform-support-guide-easy-find
Beginning in version 7.2.2, customers will be able to deploy and run their Pega Platform
enterprise applications in customer-created Docker containers.

We installed Pega using Docker. We dont have VM nodes. We have only containers. And the node name is new every time we re start the tomcat.
After installation , I still dont see the node name uder system nodes.

As per my understanding there is no option to configure the node name in prconfig.xml. The system picks the node name automatically once Pega is installed on it. And generates System node instance too.

Hi,
Is it in cloud ?
If on cloud is auto scaling enabled? You need to check the configuration details.
If the node ID is generating every time then it has to do with the configuration of container and how you have configured it.
Since node is getting new ID looks like container is getting restart each time.
Thank You.
