I've set up a namespace for my container registry. I tried creating my first docker container. However, now I would like to change the namespace. How can I do this?

You can't do it. According to IBM Containers Docs

The first time that you create a container within an organization, you are prompted to enter a name for the namespace that is associated with the private Bluemix repository. The namespace is used to generate a unique URL that you use to access your private Bluemix repository. The URL is required whenever you perform an action, such as a pull request or a push request of an image, to the repository. [...]

The name cannot be changed after it is set for an organization.

Namespace management is now possible in the IBM Bluemix Container Registry using the container-registry plugin for the bx command.

There isn't a direct rename option but you can:

  • bx cr namespace-list - list all the namespace in your Bluemix account
  • bx cr namespace-add - add a new namespace to your Bluemix account
  • bx cr namespace-rm - remove a namespace from your Bluemix account

Namespaces are visible to all users in your Bluemix account.

Note that when you delete a namespace with bx cr namespace-rm, all images in that namespace are deleted from the registry.

Read the docs here.
