A simple way to test whether the OpenEdge database running inside a Docker container can be accessed from outside the container is to use an ABL client such as Data Administration to establish a connection with the database.

To establish a connection with the OpenEdge database running inside a container using Data Administration:
  1. Launch Data Administration.
  2. Select Database > Connect in the menubar.
  3. Enter the database name in the Physical Name field.
  4. Click Options.
  5. Enter the IP address of the Docker host in the Host Name field.
  6. Enter the database server port in the Service Name field.
  7. If user credentials are required to access the database, then enter a valid user ID and password in the User ID and Password fields.
  8. Click OK.

    You should be able to connect to the OpenEdge database in a container.
