Learn about how to start the Search server Docker container by specifying CONFIGURE_MODE=EnvVariables.

If you are configuring a Search repeater or Search subordinate:

For 9.0.0.0 to 9.0.0.2, you must specify the -e SOLR_MASTER_SERVER_URL=search_master_hostname:3737
For 9.0.0.3 and later, you must specify the -e SOLR_MASTER_SERVER_URL= search_master_hostname:3738.

Mandatory parameters


Parameter name	Value
SPIUSER_NAME	Your SPIUSER name. The default value is `spiuser`.
SPIUSER_PWD	The encrypted password for the spiuser. For more information, see Setting the spiuser password in your Docker images.
DBHOST Note: If you need to point to a different database, you must specify all database-related parameters.	The database hostname.
DBNAME	The name of the database.
DBUSER	The database user name.
DBPASS	The database user password, which is used to connect the database to the application server.
DBPORT	The database port.
SOLR_MASTER SOLR_SLAVE	SOLR_MASTER and SOLR_SLAVE work together to determine the search node type. To configure the Search server container as: Search-master node: `SOLR_MASTER=true SOLR_SLAVE=false` Search-repeater node: `SOLR_MASTER=true SOLR_SLAVE=true` Search-subordinate node: `SOLR_MASTER=false SOLR_SLAVE=true`
SOLR_MASTER_SERVER_URL	The IP and port of the search node to poll from. Mandatory for the search-repeater/subordinate on the live environment SOLR_SLAVE=true. For the search-repeater node, specify the following: `search-master-ip:3737` `search-master-ip:3738` For the search-subordinate node, specify the following `search-repeater-ip:3737` `search-repeater-ip:3738`
TX_HOST	Specify the Transaction server hostname.
