Brian, Absolutely agree on an online collection of how-to docs for LXD. We started using LXD about 8mos ago as an alternative to full-blown VMs for hosting WordPress websites. Since then, we are now have 4 main LXD containers hosting over 100 sites, and we are expanding every day. Our goal is to move all our sites (and other admin VMs) over to LXD in the future.
I think a wiki page of some sort to share the data would be a fantastic idea for the community. In fact, I am spinning up my own personal blog in a few days and will have a bunch of notes on LXD. Let me know what I can do to help or contribute. -Ron On Jan 8, 2017, at 2:51 PM, brian mullan <bmullan.m...@gmail.com> wrote: I know there is the LXD github info that the developers provide and there are other awesome sources of info like Stephane Graber, Serge Hallyn, Tycho's etc websites on LXD. But I've also seen a tremendous amount of LXD related "how-to's" scattered all over the web.and I've tried to collect what I personally found on the LXD subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/LXD/ <https://www.reddit.com/r/LXD/> I see great questions & answers on the lxc-users mailer all the time but unless I cut & paste ones that are particularly insightful in order to save them for later I find it sometimes hard to "re-find" them later by going to the lxc-users mailer archive (https://lists.linuxcontainers.org/pipermail/lxc-users/ <https://lists.linuxcontainers.org/pipermail/lxc-users/>) as I haven't found a convenient way to "search" the entire archive for specific info other than expanding each month-by-month entry by subject although I do understand that there appears to be a way to make pipermail archives searchable - https://wiki.list.org/DOC/How%20do%20I%20make%20the%20archives%20searchable <https://wiki.list.org/DOC/How%20do%20I%20make%20the%20archives%20searchable> All too often I read comments by people along the lines of "Why is there no general LXD Users Guide". Those types of comments are are often accompanied by questions related to specific areas like how to map devices or other "how-to" configure type questions. Myself, I'd started collecting tidbits into a .ODT file to reference when I need to and so far I have about 19 pages of info on various topics. I have to believe I'm not the only one that's got their own list of LXD how-to's saved away on their pc! All of the info I've gathered was gleaned off of various sites on the web and unfortunately since I was, at the time only collecting the info for myself, I didn't keep a Link or author reference to where some of it came from (sorry about that). Some of my .ODT probably came from things I'd read by the above individuals. Attached is my .ODT. The format may not be the greatest but again, it has been for my own reference so far. I was thinking if something like this might be of interested to more people then we could host the file on github somewhere and the LXD user community could add/correct/delete info as time went on "how to" do things with LXD? So thought I'd just throw this out there.
