Docker Registry with Bosh

Deploying a Private Docker Registry using Bosh

A bosh release is available for Docker Registry at https://github.com/cloudfoundry-community/docker-registry-boshrelease and can be used to deploy a private docker registry using Bosh.

The sample provided requires a Bosh 2.0 deployment (Cloud Config-based).

The sample manifest will deploy a Docker Registry with the following VM/jobs topology:

         [PROXY_VM]  
          |     |  
[REGISTRY_VM1]  [REGISTRY_VM2]  
          |     |  
        [NFS_SERVER]  

The Proxy VM will load balance requests for Docker images between the two registry nodes, which in turn will retrieve/restore images from/to the shared NFS server node.

The proxy's IP address is the one to be used by the tools and clients that will interact with the registry. For example, a Concourse pipeline would refer to the private registry's images with address <proxy_ip_address>:5000/<image-name>. If a DNAT or LB rule is setup at the network egde for the proxy, then the corresponding ip address and port numbers should be used instead.

Deploying the Docker Registry

The provided sample requires a Cloud-Config-based Bosh 2.0 Director. A sample cloud config file for a docker registry deployment is provided here. Once the Cloud Config is set for the Bosh Director, then update a copy of this sample deployment manifest with the required information tagged in it and run Bosh Deploy.
