  1. Challenge

    Create a Dockerfile

    Create a Dockerfile for an application.

    There is a project directory at /home/cloud_user/buzz. All the necessary files are in this directory. Create a Dockerfile in /home/cloud_user/buzz.

    Use the busybox:1.34.1 image as the baseline for your new image.

    Configure the Dockerfile to place data1.txt from the buzz directory into the resulting container image at /etc/data/mainData.txt.

    Add data2.txt to the container image at /etc/data/data2.txt, and add data3.txt to the container image at /etc/data/data3.txt.

  2. Challenge

    Build and Save a Container Image

    Build a container image using your Dockerfile located at /home/cloud_user/buzz/Dockerfile. Install Docker on the CLI server, and you can use the service to build the image.

    Give this image the tag buzz:1. You do not need to run a container using this image or push it to any remote repository.

    Save a copy of the image to an archive file located at /home/cloud_user/buzz_1.tar.
