Istio Proxy image from Docker.io

Hi,

Currently, Istio proxy sidecar image gets pulled from Docker.io. We have a requirement to pull all of the images from our private Azure container registry. How to ensure that Istio proxy image gets pulled from our ACR only?

Hi @Mohd_Aslam

The istio operator has “hub” flag to change the images registry: https://istio.io/latest/docs/reference/commands/istioctl/

Exactly that I did and see it is fetching (pulling) image from my ACR but after it container is not getting started…I feel it pulls something else as well…

You could change the sidecar Injection template: https://istio.io/latest/docs/setup/additional-setup/sidecar-injection/

There you can control exactly which image to use.
