I don't see why not. I have been using it for BC11.

Here's a simple script.

$version = 14

$containerName = 'bc' + $version

$password = 'password'

$auth = 'UserPassword'

$artifactUrl = Get-BcArtifactUrl -type 'onprem' -select 'Latest' -version $version

$licenseFile = 'C:\NAV\NAV.flf'

# *** CREATE BC CONTAINER

New-BcContainer `

-accept_eula `

-accept_outdated `

-containerName $containerName `

-auth $auth `

-artifactUrl $artifactUrl `

-imageName $containerName `

-multitenant:$false `

-assignPremiumPlan `

-licenseFile $licenseFile `

-dns '8.8.8.8' `

-updateHosts `

-shortcuts DesktopFolder `

Hi TeddyH

Thank you so much. I have two issues and I appreciate your help

1) I am receiving the below error. I have created NAV folder in C and it is there. How I can resolve this issue?

Copy-Item : Cannot find path 'C:\NAV\NAV.flf' because it does not exist.

At C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\BcContainerHelper\4.0.5\ContainerHandling\New-NavImage.ps1:532 char:25

+ ... Copy-Item -path $licenseFilePath -Destination "$dbPath\CR ...

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (C:\NAV\CRONUS.flf:String) [Copy-Item], ItemNotFoundException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : PathNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.CopyItemCommand

2) I only created blank NAV.flf file in folder. Should I include anything specific in it? I have no license for BC.

Thanks

Oh, you need to have BC license in it. You can try using cronus license or try removing the licenseFile parameter.

Thanks Teddy. Removing license file worked. Below is the working code just in case for future

$version = 14

$containerName = 'bc' + $version

$password = 'password'

$auth = 'UserPassword'

$artifactUrl = Get-BcArtifactUrl -type 'onprem' -select 'Latest' -version $version

# *** CREATE BC CONTAINER

New-BcContainer `

-accept_eula `

-accept_outdated `

-containerName $containerName `

-auth $auth `

-artifactUrl $artifactUrl `

-imageName $containerName `

-multitenant:$false `

-assignPremiumPlan `

-dns '8.8.8.8' `

-updateHosts `

-shortcuts DesktopFolder `
