Re: [lxc-users] Am I misusing LXCs?

When you decided to make your worktable better organised and safer, you should realise it requires more work to maintain it as well. Learn and deploy some automation tools, for example I'm very happy with ansible, to be precise: Debops package of ansible playbooks: https://debops.org/ cheers, Serg

Re: [lxc-users] Am I misusing LXCs?

Personally I run each service/application in a separate container, in a separate uid range, in a full distrubution (various Ubuntu flavors). All automatically updated, as otherwise I'd certainly get in trouble. With iptables routing incoming ports. So sounds like you're doing basically the same

Re: [lxc-users] Am I misusing LXCs?

Is it functioning for you? Yes? Then it isn't wrong. In *nix there are a dozen ways to skin a cat, and that's before you start scripting in your language of choice. Is it the most efficient use? Maybe not. Running a single application in a LXC container? Maybe you'd be better off with Docker or Rk

Re: [lxc-users] Am I misusing LXCs?

It is traditional LXC because LXD wasn't out when I set it up originally. I won't build the packages for LXD if I am not even using it properly. I direct incoming connections using iptables with both the the host and the virtual router. I am extremely confident about moving my installation. I wi

[lxc-users] Am I misusing LXCs?

I build an LXC network on my VPS to separate all of my personal service from each other how similar they are to each other while not having to buy more VPS that I don't utilize intensely. Both my containers and my host are running Debian 8. I made a container for Email communications (Email and PB

[lxc-users] Making sure that you can actually "dig mycontainer.lxd" from the server, etc.

Hi All, I just figured out that it is possible, and available by default, to use the domain names of the LXD containers FROM the server. It has been quite confusing, and could not get it working, so I am documenting this here. Let's get a list of the containers and try to access by DNS the hostna

thanks to both of you for chiming in. Maybe gluster got better, by my past experiences with it weren't particularly good so I'm inclined to stay away from it until at least I can find some solid demonstration of it working on ubuntu. @Marat, re kernel code, yes, that was my conclusion also per thr

Hi All, I just tried "lxc image list ubuntu:" and I do not see any 16.04 images. (i.e. lxc launch ubuntu:x mycontainer fails). I attach the output of "lxc image list ubuntu:". I suppose it is a temporary issue, just logging it here. Simos image-list-no-x.txt.gz Description: GNU Zip compress
