Not able to successfully run websphere traditional container in minikube ( kubernetes )

8/24/2017

Following the documentation from https://hub.docker.com/r/ibmcom/websphere-traditional/ I was able to successfully deploy the WebSphere traditional image to Docker and access the admin console as described in the document.

Then I tried to deploy the same image to minikube ( kubernetes ). It seems to deploy successfully. But I'm not able to access the admin console.

Here are the commands I ran,

kubectl run websphere-traditional  --image="ibmcom/websphere-traditional:install"   --port=9443 --port=9043

kubectl expose deployment websphere-traditional --type=NodePort --name=websphere-traditional --port=9043 

minikube service websphere-traditional --url
Returned http://192.168.99.100:30030

Thanks for the help in advance.

I'm not sure if it helps, but WAS full profile console is usually exposed on ports 9060 and 9043:

http://yourserver:9060/ibm/console
or
https://yourserver:9043/ibm/console

WAS full profile also exposes much more ports (SOAP, IIOP, JMS etc..)
