RAID for the DataPower Gateway on Docker

The DataPower Gateway RAID is backed by a user-defined image file. For example, /opt/ibm/datapower/raid.img. The image file should be defined with a minimum of 800M of storage and must be accessible in the DataPower Docker container.

The administrator must create and manage the image file. One method of creating an image file is with the Linux dd command. dd if=/dev/zero of=/opt/ibm/datapower/raid.img bs=1M count=80000

The 'datapower.conf' file is read by the system to determine the image file location. This file can be edited directly, or can receive settings placed in the Dockerfile.
