This repository provides the IBM Catalog Management Plug-in for IBM Cloud Paks via its github releases. The plugin streamlines the deployment of IBM CloudPaks in a disconnected environment which was done earlier using cloudctl.
There are two ways to obtain the plugin
- Download the gzipped tar archive for your OS from the assets in releases
- Download the corresponding
.sigfile for verification purposes
The plugin is also provided in a container image cp.icr.io/cpopen/cpfs/ibm-pak:TAG where TAG should be replaced with the corresponding plugin version, for example cp.icr.io/cpopen/cpfs/ibm-pak:v1.15.0 will have v1.15.0 of the plugin.
The following command will create a container and copy the plug-ins for all the supported platforms in a directory, plugin-dir. You can specify any directory name and it will be created while copying. After copying, it will delete the temporary container. The plugin-dir will have all the binaries and other artifacts you find in a Github release and repo at IBM/ibm-pak. For example,
- If you use docker:
id=$(docker create cp.icr.io/cpopen/cpfs/ibm-pak:v1.15.0 - )
docker cp $id:/ibm-pak-plugin plugin-dir
docker rm -v $id
cd plugin-dir
- If you podman:
id=$(podman create cp.icr.io/cpopen/cpfs/ibm-pak:v1.15.0 - )
podman cp $id:/ibm-pak-plugin plugin-dir
podman rm -v $id
cd plugin-dir
- Extract the downloaded plugin and copy to executable PATH.
NOTE:
- While copying, the destination name must be
oc-ibm_pak(On windows, name must beoc-ibm_pak.exe) and cannot be changed including the dash and the underscore. These special characters are used by the oc command to find and setup the plugin - On Mac before copying oc-ibm_pak-darwin-amd64 to
/usr/local/bin/oc-ibm_pakor any directory in your PATH, refer to For macOS Catalina users - If
/usr/local/binis not accessible then place it in an accessible folder and put that folder in PATH - On windows, copy
oc-ibm_pak-windows-amd64to$HOME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\oc-ibm_pak.exeor any directory and add this path to PATH environment variable. - See accompanying LICENSE file obtained on extracting for the allowed usage.
For example on Mac,
tar -xvf oc-ibm_pak-darwin-amd64.tar.gz
cp oc-ibm_pak-darwin-amd64 /usr/local/bin/oc-ibm_pakFor example on Windows (from PowerShell),
tar -xvf oc-ibm_pak-windows-amd64.tar.gz
Copy-Item oc-ibm_pak-windows-amd64 $HOME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\oc-ibm_pak.exeVerify that the installation was successful by issuing the below command
oc ibm-pak --helpInformation about plugin's available commands is described in the doc.

Starting with v1.8.0, the plug-in lays the foundation for eventual support for catalog-based mirroring. Information about catalog-based mirroring is described in the doc. At this time, catalog-based mirroring and oc-mirror tool usage is a Tech Preview feature, which may not be supported by all products.
Users on macOS Catalina might be prompted that oc-ibm_pak-darwin-amd64 is not a trusted application. There are two ways to get around this:
-
Open Finder, control-click the application
oc-ibm_pak-darwin-amd64, choose Open from the menu, and then click Open in the dialog that appears. Enter your admin name and password to open the app if promoted. -
Enable developer-mode for your terminal window, which will allow everything. Make sure you are OK with this approach:
- Open Terminal, and enter:
❯ spctl developer-mode enable-terminal - Go to System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Privacy Tab -> Developer Tools -> Terminal : Enable
