Use this information to verify that the system started correctly, and to clean up the deployment.

  1. Open a new terminal window.

  2. Change directory to the docker-compose folder that you created in the deployment steps.

  3. Verify that all the services started correctly.

    1. List the images and additional details:

      docker-compose images
      

      You should see a list of the services defined in your docker-compose.yaml file:

      Container                               Repository                       Tag        Image Id       Size

    2. List the running containers:

      docker-compose ps
      

      You should see a list of the services defined in the docker-compose.yaml file.

    3. View the log files for each service <service-name>, or container <container-name>:

      docker-compose logs <service-name>
      docker container logs `<container-name>`
      

      For example, to check the logs for Share, run any of the following commands:

      docker-compose logs share
      docker container logs docker-compose_share_1
      

      You can add an optional parameter --tail=25 before <container-name> to display the last 25 lines of the logs for the selected container.

      docker container logs --tail=25 docker-compose_share_1
      

      Check for a success message:

      Successfully retrieved license information from Alfresco.
      

    Once you've tested the services, you can clean up the deployment by stopping the running services.

  4. Stop the session by using CONTROL+C in the same window as the running services:

    ^CGracefully stopping... (press Ctrl+C again to force)
    Stopping docker-compose_transform-core-aio_1 ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_transform-router_1   ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_proxy_1              ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_sync-service_1       ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_shared-file-store_1  ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_postgres_1           ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_activemq_1           ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_share_1              ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_solr6_1              ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_alfresco_1           ... done
    Stopping docker-compose_digital-workspace_1  ... done
    
  5. Alternatively, you can open a new terminal window, change directory to the docker-compose folder, and run:

    docker-compose down
    

    This stops the running services, as shown in the previous example, and removes them from memory:

    Stopping docker-compose_transform-core-aio_1 ... done
    ...
    Stopping docker-compose_digital-workspace_1  ... done
    Removing docker-compose_transform-core-aio_1 ... done
    ...
    Removing docker-compose_digital-workspace_1  ... done
    Removing network docker-compose_default
    
  6. You can use a few more commands to explore the services when they're running. Change directory to docker-compose before running these:

    1. Stop all the running containers:

      docker-compose stop
      
    2. Restart the containers (after using the stop command):

      docker-compose restart
      
    3. Starts the containers that were started with docker-compose up:

      docker-compose start
      
    4. Stop all running containers, and remove them and the network:

      docker-compose down [--rmi all]
      

      The --rmi all option also removes the images created by docker-compose up, and the images used by any service. You can use this, for example, if any containers fail and you need to remove them.
