  • Local run possible
  • Runs as github https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/blob/cb40bd1eba6d2024fc968d55e61491310c8f7be6/.github/workflows/build-all.yml#L106
• Christian developed new test setup
  • Writing many transactions via VDR ( https://st1.zoom.us/web_client/3jktxx3/html/externalLinkPage.html?ref=https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-vdr )
• To reproduce consensus problems
  • Sebastian Schmittner: try to find setup that consistently reproduces the write consensus problems!
    • Old debian images → pypi
• New PR for (test?) network(s?)
  • https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/pull/92
  • This seems to be directed to either run or more likely test
  • Talk to contributor and integrate into our work
  • DRY! No copy-paste files in another directory!

  • Upgrade Process 
    • Latest images

Security

The node keys handling is currently sub optimal (env variable). Should be improved to e.g. file based setup: https://github.com/IDunion/indy-node-container/issues/52

• Cristian already has a nice setup elsewhere and offers to port it
  • https://github.com/internet-sicherheit/sovrin-container
  • Merge of IFIS repo?
