Hi Anshul,

I work for Control-M Solutions Marketing and have seen your posts here. I'm wondering if you would be willing to work more directly with me and possibly other BMC resources, to help you make quicker progress?

Some issues I may be able to help directly while for others, I'll have to rely on others, but may be able to get you responses more quickly.

I found your comments very interesting and about the approach you are taking to install an agent to avoid requiring credentials at build time. I think there are several approaches that can optimize that process both for images as well as for Linux VMs. As an example, look at the "run_register.sh" script I published in the same repo (https://github.com/controlm/automation-api-community-solutions/blob/master/3-infrastructure-as-code-examples/kubernetes-agent-application-pods/Misc/ctmContainer/run_register_controlm.sh). The example there reads credentials from conventional external files mounted in the container. That is meant to be a proxy for using tags/labels and a vaulting/secrets facility to store the credentials and have the container bind to the appropriate environment at run time to address the exact concern you have about baking credentials in at build time..

My contact info is [email protected] and I would be happy to connect with you directly to help in any way I can.

Will be resolved with the release of a supported containerized agent.
