Auto updating to Domino V12.0.1 Beta1 on Docker

Notes/Domino V12..01 Beta1 is available today!
I updated our Docker Community project to include the Beta1 in our software.txt list for Domino and Traveler.
So once you downloaded the beta1 Domino web kit for Linux Domino_1201_Linux_Beta1_English.tar you can start building the image..

./build.sh domino 12.0.1BETA1

Then in my environment I just tagged it accordingly and pushed it up to my privat registry.

docker tag   9eca5365eb72 myregistry.nashcom.de:5000/hclcom/domino:12.0.1BETA1
docker  push myregistry.nashcom.de:5000/hclcom/domino:12.0.1BETA1

My servers are running the domino_container script -- an extension to my Domino start script intended for Domino containers.
It allows you to maintain and run Domino server on Docker or Podman.

So I just went into the configuration and changed the image and ran the update command.
The update command detects that a new image is available and replaces the container.
This looks like the smoothest update I could think of :-)

Of course my other servers will need a custom image running my SpamGeek and other applications.
But the domino_container script comes with a build environment for add-on software as well.
So in the next step I will update my NashCom production image for updating my production servers soon.

Note: Domino beta versions are not intended for production use.
But I am living on the bleeding edge and want to know about potential issues early.
Domino V12.0.1 Beta1 works like a charm and you should get it up for testing..

See you in the beta forum ..
