Enterprise Light Deployment

Prerequisites

• Enterprise Light docker image (opens in new window or tab)

• Docker runtime

Steps to Create a New Instance in Catchpoint Portal

1. Access the Instance Creation Page

• Go to the Add Catchpoint Instances Page to start the process of creating a new instance.

2. Set the Hostname

• Ensure that the hostname you enter matches the hostname of the container you intend to create. This is crucial for proper identification and functionality.

3. Generate the MAC Address

• The MAC Address should be a 12-character alphanumeric string (using uppercase letters A-Z and numbers 0-9). It is recommended to use a random generator to create this string.
• This MAC Address will later be used as the instanceID.

4. Select the Operating System and Network Type.

• Choose Docker as the operating system.
• Select the appropriate Network Type based on your contract.
• The options may include: Enterprise,Enterprise (pt) or Enterprise Branch

5. Node and package Selection

• Choose whether to create a new node or add the instance to an existing node.
• Select the appropriate package for your instance. Typically, only one package type will be available, depending on your contract.

Once you've completed these steps, proceed with the creation of the instance.

Once the instance is saved and assigned to a node in the UI, you are ready to install the node software in your environment.

Starting the Container

With docker installed, use the following command to load the docker image:

docker load -i .\catchpoint-lwa.tar

You can then use the following command to start a new instance of the Lightweight Agent:

docker run --hostname=<your instance hostname> -e ActiveConfigurationEnvironment=PROD -e CP_INSTANCEID=<your instance mac address> --name container_name qadockerrepo.cpsqa.net/catchpoint-lwa:1.0.0

*Replace fields with <> using the values from the instance you created in the UI. The container name can be anything you choose since this is not used by the node.
