问题
I'm trying to host Jenkins in a Docker container in the Azure App Service. This means it's 'linux' hosting.
By default the jenkins/jenkins-2.110-alpine Docker image stores its data in the /var/jenkins_home folder in the container. I want this data/config persisted to Azure persistent storage so that it's persisted across container restarts.
I've read documentation and blogs stating that you can have container data persisted if it's stored in the /home folder.
So I've customized the Jenkins Dockerfile to look like this...
FROM jenkins/jenkins:2.110-alpine
USER root
RUN mkdir /home/jenkins
RUN ln -s /var/jenkins_home /home/jenkins
USER jenkins
However, when I deploy to Azure App Service I don't see the file in my /home folder (looking in Kudu console). The app starts just fine, but I lose all of my data when I restart my container.
What am I missing?
回答1:
That's expected because you only persist a symlink (ln -s /var/jenkins_home /home/jenkins) on the Azure host. All the files physically exist inside the container.
To do this, you have to actually change Jenkins configuration to store all data in /home/jenkins which you have already created in your Dockerfile above.
A quick search for Jenkins data folder suggests that you set the environment variable JENKINS_HOME to your directory.
In your Dockerfile:
ENV JENKINS_HOME /home/jenkins
