Create a container running the Adaptec Maxview Storage Manager application and the necessary daemons (cimserver and agent).
With this container, you can manage an Adaptec RAID adapter on the dockerhost. It is based on Centos 6 and Adaptec MSM version 2.00.21811.
It should be run with --privileged, in order to have access to the hardware and insert the necessary kernel modules.
Listening on port 8443 (user=root, password=root):
sudo docker run -d --privileged --user root --name storman -p 8443:8443 nheinemans/storman
It also contains the arcconf binary, which can be invoked with:
sudo docker run --privileged --user root --entrypoint=/bin/arcconf nheinemans/storman
Or in an already running container:
sudo docker exec -it nheinemans/storman /bin/arcconf
This container is based on Centos 6, because the agent/cimserver doesn't seem to work properly in Centos 7. However, the install scripts contain some Centos 7 specific commands (e.g. the service command), which cause some error messages. The resulting container seems to work fine, I will try to fix the error messages or move to Centos 7 soon.
I'm in no way affiliated to Adaptec and cannot support its products. I just needed an easy method to manage my Adaptec RAID controller. I tried to keep this image as small as possible. I realize I should have split the 3 daemons into separate containers, however I haven't found time to do so. Also, I don't use MaxCache, so the MaxCache manager is not installed in this image.
