I've only been seriously looking into docker for the last few weeks or so but I'm really enjoying learning about all its capabilities. However, one thing I'm still having trouble understanding is the actual use-cases for using a mapped location on the host vs just using a volume.
Volumes...
A Place to document my setup of a Docker Swarm
Requirements:
2-Node HA (needs to be resilient to network isolation and power failures of host)
Turns out you need an odd # of managers, I have added a 1cpu, 1GB CentOS VM to act as a third manager
Persistent Data Storage for Containers
Inbound...
Here is a quick guide to getting setup with Docker and docker-compose on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
1. Update system, install Docker, and add the current user to the Docker group:
#!/bin/bash
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
sudo apt-get install brew
wget -qO- https://get.docker.com/ | sh...
Poking around the internet looking for a NAS Distro to try. I was planning on going to FreeNAS Corral since it had Docker Integration...but we know how that went :(
Seems like most people have gone to ZFS historically because it was more stable than BTRFS, but is that still the case today...
This guide has how to create a KVM/ LXC virtualization host that also has Ceph storage and ZFS storage built-in. The same host will also have access to bare metal Docker-ce containers using Portainer as a GUI management.

Heading off to sleep, but I think I have a project tomorrow that people are going to be interested in. We have had threads on Proxmox v. Docker and periodic threads on why not Proxmox and Docker.
For a home lab proof of concept I now bring you: Docker running on Proxmox bare metal with a web...
Just uploading Docker images for Intel Atom architecture based CPUs. These will follow a similar structure to others. I may eventually end up tagging them on the mainline or use tags for pools. Until then you can use these.
So far it seems like Atom CPUs and Intel Knights Landing/ Xeon Phi x200...
I ended up installing Rancher today. It took slightly longer than Portainer and Shipyard. It runs more services across the nodes and requires privileged mode. We
It seems like there is a lot more going on here, but at the same time it is a "much" more mature option than Shipyard and Portainer...
For those who want an easy way to mine Zcash (ZEC) using Docker here is a simple way to run a fairly optimized miner in Docker:
Code:
docker run -d -e username=example@example.com servethehome/zec_cpu_nheq_minergate
Replace example@example.com with your minergate username.
This Docker image...
For those who saw the Monero CPU Mining with Docker Swarm Mode post today, I decided to use that test cluster (coming down Friday) to try Portainer.
I logged into the swarm manager node and ran:
docker run -d -p 9000:9000 -v "/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock" portainer/portainer
That...
Did anyone see this? I watched the talk live. Zenly + Docker 1.12 + 1M teenagers
One of the few small shops I have heard talk about moving early bare metal due to costs/ performance.
Docker has betas of both Docker for OS X as well as Docker for Windows. Macs were running every Docker team demo at the Dockercon 16 keynote today, however, there are a lot of us using Windows for newer hardware.
The Windows version requires Hyper-V which is nice since you do not need...
Another post here today got me thinking about a project a friend of mine asked me about...
Somewhat highly available system that will be I think a web server... He has 2 (and could get a 3rd) Intel NUC (nuc5ppyh I believe). Has low requirements and they have 250gb Ssd and 8gb.
How would you...
