Accessing the Revenera Registry
This section describes the URL for the Revenera registry and how to find your registry secret that is required to log in to the Revenera registry.
You need the "View and Manage Download Packages" permission to access the Revenera registry.
The URL for accessing the Revenera registry depends on the deployment type and has the following format:
Deployment Type |
URL |
||||||
Shared registry |
|
||||||
Dedicated registry |
Note:Replace <tenant-ID> with your 4-character tenant ID. |
||||||
Open Registry (Bring Your Own) |
URLs are as specified by the software producer. Producers who use the Open Registry model need to communicate the URL to their respective producer users. |
Tip:The registry URL can be displayed on the View Download Package page in the Producer Portal (see Identifying Syntax for “pull” Command) or in the pull command tooltip on the Download List page in the End-User Portal (see “Viewing Details of Containerized Applications” in the FlexNet Operations End-User Portal Help Library).
Logging in to the Revenera Registry
Producer users use their FlexNet Operations user name and the container registry secret found in their profile page to log on to the Revenera registry. Customer users use their End-User Portal login and their container registry secret to log on to the Revenera registry.
A registry secret is available for all users (producer user and end users) who have been copied by FlexNet Operations to the Revenera registry and have been associated by FlexNet Operations as members to a project. (This step cannot be carried out manually.)
The Revenera registry can only be accessed using the Docker or Helm CLI.
To determine your container registry secret
Point to the User menu (next to the System menu at the top right corner of the Producer Portal page) and click My Profile. The option Container registry secret shows your secret. You can use Copy to copy the secret to the clipboard.
To log in to the Revenera registry
1. | In a command prompt, enter the following to log in: |
docker login <registry-hostname>
where <registry-hostname> is the location of the Revenera registry (see Revenera Registry URL, above).
2. | You are then prompted to enter your username and password. Your user name is your FlexNet Operations user name. Your password is the container registry secret, which you can find in your user profile (see above). |
Important Information for Open Registry Users
All configuration tasks (such as adding and removing projects or users) are handled by FlexNet Operations. Software producers who use the Open Registry (Bring Your Own) model must not do any of the following:
• | Alter the project structure in the registry, either by adding projects or removing them |
• | Alter the user lists directly in the registry, either by adding users or removing them, or by editing membership information |
