Doc question: need to create a Postgres database in order to run Clair container about clair HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello,

Correct ! The database has to be present in the first place. However, the schema is then created by Clair itself at the first run. The error that you have is actually expected - everything is fine !

Note: Bolt is great for testing but as it uses a file lock, it is not possible to run multiple Clair instances on the same database. That is why PostgreSQL is the way to go for the distributed service.

Thank you.

Quentin, have you removed the ability to use bolt in the latest? It was great for testing/evaluation purposes.

@candita Hi. The Bolt backend was powered by Cayley and Clair doesn't use Cayley anymore for performance reasons. It is however possible to re-implement the Bolt backend using the Datastore interface.
