In this example, the certificates are stored at ``/home/user/cordaBase/certificates``, the node configuration is in ``/home/user/cordaBase/config/node.conf`` and the CorDapps to run are in ``/path/to/cordapps``
..note:: Requirements: A valid node.conf, a valid set of certificates, and an existing network-parameters file
In this example, we have previously generated a network-parameters file using the bootstrapper tool, which is stored at ``/home/user/sharedFolder/network-parameters``
There is a new mount ``/home/user/sharedFolder/node-infos:/opt/corda/additional-node-infos`` which is used to hold the ``nodeInfo`` of all the nodes within the network.
As the node within the container starts up, it will place it's own nodeInfo into this directory. This will allow other nodes also using this folder to see this new node.
..note:: Requirements: A Compatibility Zone, the Zone Trust Root and authorisation to join said Zone.
It is possible to use the image to automate the process of joining an existing Zone as detailed `here <joining-a-compatibility-zone.html#connecting-to-a-compatibility-zone>`__
The first step is to obtain the Zone Trust Root, and place it within a directory. In the below example, the Trust Root is stored at ``/home/user/docker/certificates/network-root-truststore.jks``.
It is possible to configure the name of the Trust Root file by setting the ``TRUST_STORE_NAME`` environment variable in the container.
Several environment variables must also be passed to the container to allow it to register:
1.``MY_LEGAL_NAME`` - The X500 to use when generating the config. This must be the same as registered with the Zone.
2.``MY_PUBLIC_ADDRESS`` - The public address to advertise the node on.
3.``NETWORKMAP_URL`` - The address of the Zone's network map service (this should be provided to you by the Zone).
4.``DOORMAN_URL`` - The address of the Zone's doorman service (this should be provided to you by the Zone).
5.``NETWORK_TRUST_PASSWORD`` - The password to the Zone Trust Root (this should be provided to you by the Zone).
6.``MY_EMAIL_ADDRESS`` - The email address to use when generating the config. This must be the same as registered with the Zone.
There are some optional variables which allow customisation of the generated config:
1.``MY_P2P_PORT`` - The port to advertise the node on (defaults to 10200). If changed, ensure the container is launched with the correct published ports.
2.``MY_RPC_PORT`` - The port to open for RPC connections to the node (defaults to 10201). If changed, ensure the container is launched with the correct published ports.
Once the container has finished performing the initial registration, the node can be started as normal
