Docker & Compose
Install Docker with the Compose plugin on the host where you plan to run the services.
GET STARTED / DOCKER HUB
From Docker Hub
to first sign-in.
Install Sysadmin Anywhere 5.0.0 from ready-made Docker Hub images. Download only the deployment configuration from this site; Docker Compose fetches the application and supporting images. No source checkout or build is required.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Bring your environment.
The application connects to your directory and supporting services. Gather these details before starting the containers.
Active Directory access
Know the domain controller hostname, LDAP port, and accounts used for login and inventory scans.
Credentials & network
Prepare unique database, Vault, JWT, and n8n secrets. Review network ports and persistent storage.
THE PATH TO FIRST LOGIN
Five steps to a
working workspace.
The four product images are published on Docker Hub with the 5.0.0 tag. Run these commands in the extracted configuration directory.
01
Get the deployment files
Download and extract the configuration bundle above. It contains no application source code. Open a terminal in its docker/prod directory.
YOUR TERMINAL
cd docker/prod02
Configure your environment
Copy .env.example to .env. Set the LDAP, inventory, WEF, and n8n values, and replace every example password and token before starting. Keep .env private.
YOUR TERMINAL
cp .env.example .env03
Pull the images from Docker Hub
Run the pull command in docker/prod. Compose downloads sysadminanywhere/sysadminanywhere, sysadminanywhere/directory, sysadminanywhere/inventory, and sysadminanywhere/incident, along with the database and supporting images.
YOUR TERMINAL
docker compose pull04
Start the services
Start the application and its supporting services. Check the container logs if a service does not become ready.
YOUR TERMINAL
docker compose up -d05
Sign in and check status
Open http://localhost:8080/login from the host, sign in with your Active Directory account, and ask an administrator to review /settings/dependencies if a service is unavailable.
OPEN IN BROWSER
http://localhost:8080/loginBEFORE PRODUCTION
Review the configuration
for your environment.
The supplied Compose file pins the four Sysadmin Anywhere images to 5.0.0. PostgreSQL uses version 17, while Vault and n8n use floating tags. The Vault service runs in development mode; replace it with a production-ready configuration before deploying to production.
Replace every example secret, review access and exposed ports, and configure TLS and certificate trust for your environment. Keep your .env file private.
