Taking a long time to push image

When running the prepareserver.sh script, it takes more than 20 minutes to push an image to the IBM® Containers Extension (ICE) registry.

Explanation

The prepareserver.sh script pushes the entire IBM MobileFirst™ Platform Foundation stack, which can take from 20 to 60 minutes.

How to resolve

If the script has not completed after a 60-minute time period has elapsed, the process might be hung because of a connectivity issue. After a stable connection is reestablished, restart the script.
