Setting the registry location for data volumes

For Tonic Ephemeral, the configured container registry is used to store data volumes that are used to create databases. These can include data volumes that Tonic Structural creates when it writes output to a container repository.

If you change the registry location, then when you start a new database, you won't have access to volumes that were in the original location. You must manually move the volumes to the new location.

If you only update the credentials, then you must make sure that the new credentials have the required permissions for the existing repositories.

To change the registry location:

1. In the Ephemeral heading, click Registry.

Registry Settings panel to configure the registry location

1. In the Registry URL field, provide the URL to the registry location.

2. Provide the credentials for Ephemeral to use to read from and write to the registry. On a self-hosted instance, you can either provide a username and access token, or provide a secret.

   On Ephemeral Cloud, you must provide a username and access token.
