Copying a Container Configuration

InstallAnywhere 2022

InstallAnywhere provides the ability to copy a container configuration in a project. Copying creates a new container configuration with the same settings as the original container configuration. You can modify the copied container configuration as needed without modifying the original container configuration.

You may want to create one container configuration with the appropriate default settings, and to use it as a template to create additional container configurations that have slight changes from the default values.

To copy a container configuration:

1. In the Advanced Designer, on the Build page, click Build Containers. The Build Containers view opens.
2. In the Docker Configuration area, in the Choose Container Configuration setting, select the configuration that you want to copy.
3. In the Choose Container Configuration setting, click the Copy button. The Copy Configuration dialog box opens, prompting you to enter a new name for the container configuration.
4. Enter a name and click OK.

The name must be 60 characters or fewer, and it must not contain any of the following characters: asterisk (*), question mark (?), period (.), backslash (\), or forward slash (/).

InstallAnywhere adds the new container configuration and selects it in the Choose Container Configuration setting. Configure the container configuration’s settings as needed.
