Integrate UCP with Docker Trusted Registry trusted, registry, integrate, UCP, DTR Integrate with Docker Trusted Registry

Once you deploy Docker Trusted Registry (DTR), you can use it to store your Docker images and deploy services to UCP using those images. Learn how deploy DTR.

Docker UCP integrates out of the box with Docker Trusted Registry (DTR). This means that you can deploy services from the UCP web UI, using Docker images that are stored in DTR. You can also use a UCP client bundle to do the same from the CLI.

If you've configured DTR to use TLS certificates issued by a globally-trusted certificate authority you can skip this since all clients will automatically trust the TLS certificates used by DTR.

If you're using the DTR default configurations or configured DTR to use self-signed certificates, you need to configure all hosts that want to push or pull Docker images from DTR. This includes:

  • All UCP nodes
  • Your local computer or any other that wants to push or pull Docker images from DTR

If your host is not configured to trust the DTR TLS certificates, you'll get an error like:

docker login dtr.example.org

x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

1. Configure your local computer

If you want to use your local computer to interact with DTR, you also need to configure configure it to trust the DTR TLS certificates. This depends on the operating system:

  • For macOS:

    In your browser navigate to https://<dtr-url>/ca to download the TLS certificate used by DTR. Then add that certificate to the macOS trust store.

  • For Windows:

    In your browser navigate to https://<dtr-url>/ca to download the TLS certificate used by DTR. Then add that certificate to the Windows trust store.

  • For Ubuntu:

    # Download the DTR CA certificate
    $ sudo curl -k https://<dtr-domain-name>/ca -o /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/<dtr-domain-name>.crt
    
    # Refresh the list of certificates to trust
    $ sudo update-ca-certificates
    
    # Restart the Docker daemon
    $ sudo service docker restart
    
  • For CentOS or RHEL:

    # Download the DTR CA certificate
    $ sudo curl -k https://<dtr-domain-name>/ca -o /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/<dtr-domain-name>.crt
    
    # Refresh the list of certificates to trust
    $ sudo update-ca-trust
    
    # Restart the Docker daemon
    $ sudo /bin/systemctl restart docker.service
    

2. Test your setup

The best way to confirm that your computer is correctly configured, is by trying to pull and push images from your local Docker installation to DTR.

  1. Create a test repository on DTR.

    Navigate to the DTR web UI, and create a new hello-world repository so that you can push and pull images. Set it as private, and save the changes.

  2. Use a UCP client bundle to run docker commands in the UCP cluster.

  3. Pull an image from Docker Hub:

    $ docker pull hello-world
    
  4. Retag the image:

    $ docker tag hello-world:latest <dtr-domain-name>/<username>/hello-world:1
    
  5. Push the image from the UCP node to your private registry:

    $ docker push <dtr-domain-name>/<username>/hello-world:1
    
  6. Validate that your image is now stored on DTR.

    When successfully pushing the image you should see a result like:

    The push refers to a repository [dtr/username/hello-world]
    5f70bf18a086: Pushed
    33e7801ac047: Pushed
    1: digest: sha256:7d9e482c0cc9e68c7f07bf76e0aafcb1869d32446547909200db990e7bc5461a size: 1930
    

    You can also check that the tag exists on the DTR web UI.

1. Configure UCP Docker Engines

For each UCP node:

  1. Log into the node as an administrator, using ssh
  2. Configure the system to trust the DTR TLS certificates. This depends on the operating system.

Troubleshooting

When one of the components is misconfigured, and doesn't trust the root CA certificate of the other components, you'll get an error like:

$ docker push dtr/username/hello-world:1

The push refers to a repository [dtr/username/hello-world]
Get https://dtr/v1/_ping: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority
