Example value: myproject SCRIPT_DEBUG If set to true , ensures that the Bash scripts are executed with the -x option, printing the commands and their arguments as they are executed. 11.3. Exposed ports Table 11.3. Exposed Ports Port Number Description 8443 HTTPS 11.4. Datasources Datasources are automatically created based on the value of some of the environment variables. The most important environment variable is DB_SERVICE_PREFIX_MAPPING , as it defines JNDI mappings for the datasources. The allowed value for this variable is a comma-separated list of POOLNAME - DATABASETYPE = PREFIX triplets, where: POOLNAME is used as the pool-name in the datasource. DATABASETYPE is the database driver to use. PREFIX is the prefix used in the names of environment variables that are used to configure the datasource. 11.4.1. JNDI mappings for datasources For each POOLNAME - DATABASETYPE = PREFIX triplet defined in the DB_SERVICE_PREFIX_MAPPING environment variable, the launch script creates a separate datasource, which is executed when running the image. Note The first part (before the equal sign) of the DB_SERVICE_PREFIX_MAPPING should be lowercase. The DATABASETYPE determines the driver for the datasource. For more information about configuring a driver, see Modules, Drivers, and Generic Deployments . The JDK 8 image has drivers for postgresql and mysql configured by default. Warning Do not use any special characters for the POOLNAME parameter. Database drivers Support for using the Red Hat-provided internal datasource drivers with the JBoss EAP for OpenShift image is now deprecated. Red Hat recommends that you use JDBC drivers obtained from your database vendor for your JBoss EAP applications. The following internal datasources are no longer provided with the JBoss EAP for OpenShift image: MySQL PostgreSQL For more information about installing drivers, see Modules, Drivers, and Generic Deployments . Note that you can also create a custom layer to install these drivers and datasources if you want to add them to a provisioned server. 11.4.1.1. Datasource Configuration Environment Variables To configure other datasource properties, use the following environment variables. Important Be sure to replace the values for POOLNAME , DATABASETYPE , and PREFIX in the following variable names with the appropriate values. These replaceable values are described in this section and in the Datasources section. Variable Name Description POOLNAME _DATABASETYPE _SERVICE_HOST Defines the database server's host name or IP address to be used in the datasource's connection-url property. Example value: 192.168.1.3 POOLNAME _DATABASETYPE _SERVICE_PORT Defines the database server's port for the datasource. Example value: 5432 PREFIX _BACKGROUND_VALIDATION When set to true database connections are validated periodically in a background thread prior to use. Defaults to false , meaning the validate-on-match method is enabled by default instead. PREFIX _BACKGROUND_VALIDATION_MILLIS Specifies frequency of the validation, in milliseconds, when the background-validation database connection validation mechanism is enabled ( PREFIX _BACKGROUND_VALIDATION variable is set to true ). Defaults to 10000 . PREFIX _CONNECTION_CHECKER Specifies a connection checker class that is used to validate connections for the particular database in use. Example value: org.jboss.jca.adapters.jdbc.extensions.postgres.PostgreSQLValidConnectionChecker PREFIX _DATABASE Defines the database name for the datasource. Example value: myDatabase PREFIX _DRIVER Defines Java database driver for the datasource. Example value: postgresql PREFIX _EXCEPTION_SORTER Specifies the exception sorter class that is used to properly detect and clean up after fatal database connection exceptions. Example value: org.jboss.jca.adapters.jdbc.extensions.mysql.MySQLExceptionSorter PREFIX _JNDI Defines the JNDI name for the datasource. Defaults to java:jboss/datasources/ POOLNAME _DATABASETYPE , where POOLNAME and DATABASETYPE are taken from the triplet described above. This setting is useful if you want to override the default generated JNDI name. Example value: java:jboss/datasources/test-postgresql PREFIX _JTA Defines Jakarta Transactions option for the non-XA datasource. The XA datasources are already Jakarta Transactions capable by default. Defaults to true . PREFIX _MAX_POOL_SIZE Defines the maximum pool size option for the datasource. Example value: 20 PREFIX _MIN_POOL_SIZE Defines the minimum pool size option for the datasource. Example value: 1 PREFIX _NONXA Defines the datasource as a non-XA datasource. Defaults to false . PREFIX _PASSWORD Defines the password for the datasource. Example value: password PREFIX _TX_ISOLATION Defines the java.sql.Connection transaction isolation level for the datasource. Example value: TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED PREFIX _URL Defines connection URL for the datasource. Example value: jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/postgresdb PREFIX _USERNAME Defines the username for the datasource. Example value: admin 11.4.1.2. Examples These examples show how value of the DB_SERVICE_PREFIX_MAPPING environment variable influences datasource creation. 11.4.1.2.1. Single Mapping Consider value test-postgresql=TEST . This creates a datasource with java:jboss/datasources/test_postgresql name. Additionally, all the required settings like password and username are expected to be provided as environment variables with the TEST_ prefix, for example TEST_USERNAME and TEST_PASSWORD . 11.4.1.2.2. Multiple Mappings You can specify multiple datasource mappings. Note Always separate multiple datasource mappings with a comma. Consider the following value for the DB_SERVICE_PREFIX_MAPPING environment variable: cloud-postgresql=CLOUD,test-mysql=TEST_MYSQL . This creates the following two datasources: java:jboss/datasources/test_mysql java:jboss/datasources/cloud_postgresql Then you can use TEST_MYSQL prefix for configuring things like the username and password for the MySQL datasource, for example TEST_MYSQL_USERNAME . And for the PostgreSQL datasource, use the CLOUD_ prefix, for example CLOUD_USERNAME . 11.5. Clustering 11.5.1. Configuring a JGroups Discovery Mechanism To enable JBoss EAP clustering on OpenShift, configure the JGroups protocol stack in your JBoss EAP configuration to use either the kubernetes.KUBE_PING or the dns.DNS_PING discovery mechanism. Although you can use a custom standalone.xml configuration file, it is recommended that you use Environment variables to configure JGroups in your image build. The instructions below use environment variables to configure the discovery mechanism for the JBoss EAP for OpenShift image. Important If you use Helm chart to deploy an application on top of the JBoss EAP for OpenShift image, the default discovery mechanism is dns.DNS_PING . The dns.DNS_PING and kubernetes.KUBE_PING discovery mechanisms are not compatible with each other. It is not possible to form a supercluster out of two independent child clusters, with one using the dns.DNS_PING mechanism for discovery and the other using the kubernetes.KUBE_PING mechanism. Similarly, when performing a rolling upgrade, the discovery mechanism needs to be identical for both the source and the target clusters. 11.5.1.1. Configuring KUBE_PING To use the KUBE_PING JGroups discovery mechanism: The JGroups protocol stack must be configured to use KUBE_PING as the discovery mechanism. You can do this by setting the JGROUPS_PING_PROTOCOL environment variable to kubernetes.KUBE_PING : The KUBERNETES_NAMESPACE environment variable must be set to your OpenShift project name. For example: The KUBERNETES_LABELS environment variable should be set. This should match the label set at the service level . If not set, pods outside of your application (albeit in your namespace) will try to join. For example: Authorization must be granted to the service account the pod is running under to be allowed to access Kubernetes' REST API. This is done using the OpenShift CLI. The following example uses the default service account in the current project's namespace: Using the eap-service-account in the project namespace: Note See Preparing OpenShift to deploy an application for more information on adding policies to service accounts. 11.5.1.2. Configuring DNS_PING To use the DNS_PING JGroups discovery mechanism: The JGroups protocol stack must be configured to use DNS_PING as the discovery mechanism. You can do this by setting the JGROUPS_PING_PROTOCOL environment variable to dns.DNS_PING : The OPENSHIFT_DNS_PING_SERVICE_NAME environment variable must be set to the name of the ping service for the cluster. The OPENSHIFT_DNS_PING_SERVICE_PORT environment variable should be set to the port number on which the ping service is exposed. The DNS_PING protocol attempts to discern the port from the SRV records, otherwise it defaults to 8888 . A ping service which exposes the ping port must be defined. This service should be headless (ClusterIP=None) and must have the following: The port must be named. The service must be annotated with the service.alpha.kubernetes.io/tolerate-unready-endpoints and the publishNotReadyAddresses properties, both set to true . Note Use both the service.alpha.kubernetes.io/tolerate-unready-endpoints and the publishNotReadyAddresses properties to ensure that the ping service works in both the older and newer OpenShift releases. Omitting these annotations result in each node forming its own "cluster of one" during startup. Each node then merges its cluster into the other nodes' clusters after startup, because the other nodes are not detected until after they have started. kind: Service apiVersion: v1 spec: publishNotReadyAddresses: true clusterIP: None ports: - name: ping port: 8888 selector: deploymentConfig: eap-app metadata: name: eap-app-ping annotations: service.alpha.kubernetes.io/tolerate-unready-endpoints: "true" description: "The JGroups ping port for clustering." Note DNS_PING does not require any modifications to the service account and works using the default permissions. 11.5.2. Configuring JGroups to Encrypt Cluster Traffic To encrypt cluster traffic for JBoss EAP on OpenShift, you must configure the JGroups protocol stack in your JBoss EAP configuration to use either the SYM_ENCRYPT or ASYM_ENCRYPT protocol. Although you can use a custom standalone.xml configuration file, it is recommended that you use Environment variables to configure JGroups in your image build. The instructions below use environment variables to configure the protocol for cluster traffic encryption for the JBoss EAP for OpenShift image. Important The SYM_ENCRYPT and ASYM_ENCRYPT protocols are not compatible with each other. It is not possible to form a supercluster out of two independent child clusters, with one using the SYM_ENCRYPT protocol for the encryption of cluster traffic and the other using the ASYM_ENCRYPT protocol. Similarly, when performing a rolling upgrade, the protocol needs to be identical for both the source and the target clusters. 11.5.2.1. Configuring SYM_ENCRYPT To use the SYM_ENCRYPT protocol to encrypt JGroups cluster traffic: The JGroups protocol stack must be configured to use SYM_ENCRYPT as the encryption protocol. You can do this by setting the JGROUPS_ENCRYPT_PROTOCOL environment variable to SYM_ENCRYPT : The JGROUPS_ENCRYPT_KEYSTORE_DIR environment variable must be set to the directory path in which the secret containing the keystore is mounted. For example: The JGROUPS_ENCRYPT_KEYSTORE environment variable must be set to the name of the keystore file within the created secret specified. If not set, cluster communication is not encrypted and a warning is issued. For example: The JGROUPS_ENCRYPT_NAME environment variable must be set to the name associated with the server's certificate. If not set, cluster communication is not encrypted and a warning is issued. For example: The JGROUPS_ENCRYPT_PASSWORD environment variable must be set to the password used to access the keystore and the certificate. If not set, cluster communication is not encrypted and a warning is issued. For example: 11.5.2.2. Configuring ASYM_ENCRYPT Note JBoss EAP 8.0 includes a new version of the ASYM_ENCRYPT protocol. The version of the protocol is deprecated. If you specify the JGROUPS_CLUSTER_PASSWORD environment variable, the deprecated version of the protocol is used and a warning is printed in the pod log. To use the ASYM_ENCRYPT protocol to encrypt JGroups cluster traffic, specify ASYM_ENCRYPT as the encryption protocol, and configure it to use a keystore configured in the elytron subsystem. 11.5.3. Considerations for scaling up pods Based on the discovery mechanism in JGroups, a starting node searches for an existing cluster coordinator node. If a coordinator node is not found within a given timeout, the starting node assumes that it is the first member and takes up the coordinator status. When multiple nodes start concurrently, they make an assumption of being the first member that leads to the creation of a split cluster with multiple partitions. For example, scaling up from 0 to 2 pods using the DeploymentConfig API may lead to the creation of a split cluster. To avoid this situation, you need to start the first pod and then scale up to the required number of pods. Note By default, the JBoss EAP Operator uses the StatefulSet API, which starts the creation of pods in order, that is, one by one, preventing the creation of split clusters. 11.6. Native Health checks The JBoss EAP for OpenShift image implements Liveness and readiness probes that are included in OpenShift by default. For more information, see liveness and readiness probes in the OpenShift Container Platform Developer Guide . The following table demonstrates the values necessary for these health checks to pass. If the status is anything other than the values found below, then the check is failed and the image is restarted per the image's restart policy. Table 11.4. Liveness and Readiness Checks Performed Test Liveness Readiness Server Status Any status Running Boot Errors None None Deployment Status [a] N/A or no failed entries N/A or no failed entries Native Health Checks UP UP [a] N/A is only a valid state when no deployments are present. 11.7. Messaging 11.7.1. Configuring External Red Hat AMQ Brokers You can configure the JBoss EAP for OpenShift image with environment variables to connect to external Red Hat AMQ brokers. 11.8. Security domains To configure a new Security Domain, the user must define the SECDOMAIN_NAME environment variable. This results in the creation of a security domain named after the environment variable. The user may also define the following environment variables to customize the domain: Table 11.5. Security Domains Variable name Description SECDOMAIN_NAME Defines an additional security domain. Example value: myDomain SECDOMAIN_PASSWORD_STACKING If defined, the password-stacking module option is enabled and set to the value useFirstPass . Example value: true SECDOMAIN_LOGIN_MODULE The login module to be used. Defaults to UsersRoles SECDOMAIN_USERS_PROPERTIES The name of the properties file containing user definitions. Defaults to users.properties SECDOMAIN_ROLES_PROPERTIES The name of the properties file containing role definitions. Defaults to roles.properties 11.9. HTTPS environment variables Variable name Description HTTPS_NAME If defined along with HTTPS_PASSWORD and HTTPS_KEYSTORE , enables HTTPS and sets the SSL name. This should be the value specified as the alias name of your keystore if you created it with the keytool -genkey command. Example value: example.com HTTPS_PASSWORD If defined along with HTTPS_NAME and HTTPS_KEYSTORE , enables HTTPS and sets the SSL key password. Example value: passw0rd HTTPS_KEYSTORE If defined along with HTTPS_PASSWORD and HTTPS_NAME , enables HTTPS and sets the SSL certificate key file to a relative path under EAP_HOME /standalone/configuration Example value: ssl.key 11.10. Administration environment variables Table 11.6. Administration Environment Variables Variable name Description ADMIN_USERNAME If both this and ADMIN_PASSWORD are defined, used for the JBoss EAP management user name. Example value: eapadmin ADMIN_PASSWORD The password for the specified ADMIN_USERNAME . Example value: passw0rd 11.11. S2I The image includes S2I scripts and Maven. Maven is currently only supported as a build tool for applications that are supposed to be deployed on JBoss EAP-based containers (or related/descendant images) on OpenShift. Only WAR deployments are supported at this time. 11.11.1. Custom Configuration It is possible to add custom configuration files for the image. All files put into configuration/ directory will be copied into EAP_HOME /standalone/configuration/ . For example to override the default configuration used in the image, just add a custom standalone.xml into the configuration/ directory. See example for such a deployment. 11.11.1.1. Custom Modules It is possible to add custom modules. All files from the modules/ directory will be copied into EAP_HOME /modules/ . See example for such a deployment. 11.11.2. Deployment Artifacts By default, artifacts from the source target directory will be deployed. To deploy from different directories set the ARTIFACT_DIR environment variable in the BuildConfig definition. ARTIFACT_DIR is a comma-delimited list. For example: ARTIFACT_DIR=app1/target,app2/target,app3/target 11.11.3. Artifact repository mirrors A repository in Maven holds build artifacts and dependencies of various types, for example, all of the project JARs, library JARs, plug-ins, or any other project specific artifacts. It also specifies locations from where to download artifacts while performing the S2I build. Besides using central repositories, it is a common practice for organizations to deploy a local custom mirror repository. Benefits of using a mirror are: Availability of a synchronized mirror, which is geographically closer and faster. Ability to have greater control over the repository content. Possibility to share artifacts across different teams (developers, CI), without the need to rely on public servers and repositories. Improved build times. Often, a repository manager can serve as local cache to a mirror. Assuming that the repository manager is already deployed and reachable externally at https://10.0.0.1:8443/repository/internal/ , the S2I build can then use this manager by supplying the MAVEN_MIRROR_URL environment variable to the build configuration of the application as follows: Identify the name of the build configuration to apply MAVEN_MIRROR_URL variable against. Update build configuration of eap with a MAVEN_MIRROR_URL environment variable. Verify the setting. Schedule new build of the application. Note During application build, you will notice that Maven dependencies are pulled from the repository manager, instead of the default public repositories. Also, after the build is finished, you will see that the mirror is filled with all the dependencies that were retrieved and used during the build. 11.11.3.1. Secure artifact repository mirror URLs To prevent "man-in-the-middle" attacks through the Maven repository, JBoss EAP requires the use of secure URLs for artifact repository mirror URLs. The URL should specify a secure http ("https") and a secure port. By default, if you specify an unsecure URL, an error will be returned. You can override this behavior using the the property -Dinsecure.repositories=WARN . 11.11.4. Scripts run This script uses the openshift-launch.sh script that configures and starts JBoss EAP with the standalone.xml configuration. assemble This script uses Maven to build the source, create a package (WAR), and move it to the EAP_HOME /standalone/deployments directory. 11.11.5. Custom Scripts You can add custom scripts to run when starting a pod, before JBoss EAP is started. You can add any script valid to run when starting a pod, including CLI scripts. Two options are available for including scripts when starting JBoss EAP from an image: Mount a configmap to be executed as postconfigure.sh Add an install.sh script in the nominated installation directory 11.11.5.1. Mounting a configmap to execute custom scripts Mount a configmap when you want to mount a custom script at runtime to an existing image (in other words, an image that has already been built). To mount a configmap: Create a configmap with content you want to include in the postconfigure.sh. For example, create a directory called extensions in the project root directory to include the scripts postconfigure.sh and extensions.cli and run the following command: Mount the configmap into the pods via the deployment controller (dc). Example postconfigure.sh Example extensions.cli 11.11.5.2. Using install.sh to execute custom scripts Use install.sh when you want to include the script as part of the image when it is built. To execute custom scripts using install.sh: In the git repository of the project that will be used during s2i build, create a directory called .s2i . Inside the s2i directory, add a file called environment, with the following content: Create a directory called extensions . In the extensions directory, create the file postconfigure.sh with contents similar to the following (replace placeholder code with appropriate code for your environment): In the extensions directory, create the file install.sh with contents similar to the following (replace placeholder code with appropriate code for your environment): 11.11.6. Environment variables You can influence the way the build is executed by supplying environment variables to the s2i build command. The environment variables that can be supplied are: Table 11.7. s2i Environment Variables Variable name Description ARTIFACT_DIR The .war , .ear , and .jar files from this directory will be copied into the deployments/ directory. Example value: target ENABLE_GENERATE_DEFAULT_DATASOURCE Optional. When included with the value true , the server is provisioned with the default datasource. Otherwise, the default datasource is not included. GALLEON_PROVISION_LAYERS Optional. Instructs the S2I process to provision the specified layers. The value is a comma-separated list of layers to provision, including one base layer and any number of decorator layers. Example value: jaxrs GALLEON_PROVISION_CHANNELS This is a comma separated list of JBoss EAP channels manifest. The JBoss EAP channel manifest is identified by groupid:artifactId:[version] . Note The version is optional, which means that the latest channel manifest will be retrieved. For JBoss EAP 8.0, use this channel org.jboss.eap.channels:eap-8.0 . GALLEON_PROVISION_FEATURE_PACKS Builds environment variable to specify a custom Galleon feature pack for your S2I image. For example: org.jboss.eap:wildfly-ee-galleon-pack:[version] , org.jboss.eap.cloud:eap-cloud-galleon-pack:[version] . Note When you set up the GALLEON_PROVISION_CHANNELS=org.jboss.eap.channels:eap-8.0 , the feature-packs versions are not required. HTTP_PROXY_HOST Host name or IP address of a HTTP proxy for Maven to use. Example value: 192.168.1.1 HTTP_PROXY_PORT TCP Port of a HTTP proxy for Maven to use. Example value: 8080 HTTP_PROXY_USERNAME If supplied with HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD , use credentials for HTTP proxy. Example value: myusername HTTP_PROXY_PASSWORD If supplied with HTTP_PROXY_USERNAME , use credentials for HTTP proxy. Example value: mypassword HTTP_PROXY_NONPROXYHOSTS If supplied, a configured HTTP proxy will ignore these hosts. Example value: some.example.org|*.example.net MAVEN_ARGS Overrides the arguments supplied to Maven during build. Example value: -e -Popenshift -DskipTests -Dcom.redhat.xpaas.repo.redhatga package MAVEN_ARGS_APPEND Appends user arguments supplied to Maven during build. Example value: -Dfoo=bar MAVEN_MIRROR_URL URL of a Maven Mirror/repository manager to configure. Example value: https://10.0.0.1:8443/repository/internal/ Note that the specified URL should be secure. For details see Secure artifact repository mirror URLs . MAVEN_CLEAR_REPO Optionally clear the local Maven repository after the build. If the server present in the image is strongly coupled to the local cache, the cache is not deleted and a warning is printed. Example value: true APP_DATADIR If defined, directory in the source from where data files are copied. Example value: mydata DATA_DIR Directory in the image where data from USDAPP_DATADIR will be copied. Example value: EAP_HOME /data Note For more information, see Building and running JBoss EAP applications on OpenShift Container Platform , which uses Maven and the S2I scripts included in the JBoss EAP for OpenShift image. 11.12. Unsupported Transaction Recovery Scenarios JTS transactions are not supported in OpenShift. XTS transactions are not supported in OpenShift. The XATerminator interface that some third parties use for transaction completion and crash recovery flows is not supported in OpenShift. Transactions propagated over JBoss Remoting is Unsupported. Note Transactions propagated over JBoss Remoting is supported using EAP operator. 11.13. Included JBoss modules The table below lists included JBoss Modules in the JBoss EAP for OpenShift image. Table 11.8. Included JBoss Modules JBoss Module org.jboss.as.clustering.common org.jboss.as.clustering.jgroups org.jboss.as.ee org.jgroups org.openshift.ping net.oauth.core 11.14. EAP Operator: API Information The EAP operator introduces the following APIs: 11.14.1. WildFlyServer WildFlyServer defines a custom JBoss EAP resource. Table 11.9. WildFlyServer Field Description Scheme Required metadata Standard object's metadata ObjectMeta v1 meta false spec Specification of the desired behaviour of the JBoss EAP deployment. WildFlyServerSpec true status Most recent observed status of the JBoss EAP deployment. Read-only. WildFlyServerStatus false 11.14.2.

Table Field Description Scheme Required metadata Standard list's metadata metav1.ListMeta false items List of WildFlyServer WildFlyServer true 11.14.3. WildFlyServerSpec WildFlyServerSpec is a specification of the desired behavior of the JBoss EAP resource. It uses a StatefulSet with a pod spec that mounts the volume specified by storage on /opt/jboss/wildfly/standalone/data. Table 11.11. WildFlyServerSpec Field Description Scheme Required applicationImage Name of the application image to be deployed string false replicas the desired number of replicas for the application int32] true standaloneConfigMap Spec to specify how a standalone configuration can be read from a ConfigMap . StandaloneConfigMapSpec false resources Resources spec to specify the request or limits of the Stateful Set. If omitted, the namespace defaults are used. Resources false SecurityContext SecurityContext spec to define privilege and access control settings for the pod containers created by the Stateful Set. If omitted, default privileges are used. For additional information see securityContext *corev1.SecurityContext false storage Storage spec to specify how storage should be used. If omitted, an EmptyDir is used (that does not persist data across pod restart) StorageSpec false serviceAccountName Name of the ServiceAccount to use to run the JBoss EAP pods string false envFrom List of environment variables present in the containers from configMap or secret corev1.EnvFromSource false env List of environment variable present in the containers corev1.EnvVar false secrets List of secret names to mount as volumes in the containers.

Resources Resources defines the configured resources for a WildflyServer resource. If the Resources field is not defined or Request or Limits is empty, this resource is removed from the StatefulSet . The description of this resource is a standard Container resource and uses the scheme for corev1.ResourceRequirements. 11.14.5. StorageSpec StorageSpec defines the configured storage for a WildFlyServer resource. If neither an EmptyDir nor a volumeClaimTemplate is defined, a default EmptyDir is used. The EAP Operator configures the StatefulSet using information from this StorageSpec to mount a volume dedicated to the standalone/data directory used by JBoss EAP to persist its own data. For example, transaction log). If an EmptyDir is used, the data does not survive a pod restart. If the application deployed on JBoss EAP relies on transaction, specify a volumeClaimTemplate , so that the same persistent volume can be reused upon pod restarts. Table 11.12. Table Field Description Scheme Required emptyDir EmptyDirVolumeSource to be used by the JBoss EAP StatefulSet corev1.EmptyDirVolumeSource false volumeClaimTemplate A PersistentVolumeClaim spec to configure Resources requirements to store JBoss EAP standalone data directory.
