    πŸš€ How to Deploy IBM Maximo Manage on Podman (Without OpenShift)

    Skip the complexity of OpenShift and run Maximo Manage locally with Podman!

    After working with containerized Maximo deployments, I've streamlined the process into a simple PowerShell workflow that gets you up and running quickly.

    Why This Approach?
    βœ… No OpenShift overhead
    βœ… Local development flexibility
    βœ… Faster iteration cycles
    βœ… SQL Server integration ready

    Quick Setup Process:

    Step 1: Initialize Environment

    podman machine start
    Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass


    Step 2: Deploy Images

    .\install_and_delpoy_start-manage_images.ps1

    This pulls Maximo Manage images and sets up containers with SQL Server local image.

    Step 3: Start Your Instance

    .\start-manage-dev.ps1

    Use this script for subsequent starts after initial deployment.

    Essential Podman Commands:
    β€’ podman ps -a - List all containers
    β€’ podman logs -f manage-dev-container - Live logs
    β€’ podman system prune -a - Clean up resources

    Key Benefits I've Experienced:
    β†’ Rapid prototyping without infrastructure complexity
    β†’ Direct container access for debugging
    β†’ Simplified customization workflow
    β†’ Local SQL Server eliminates database setup hassles

    This setup has transformed my Maximo development workflow. No more waiting for OpenShift provisioning or dealing with cluster overhead.
