In my last post, I talked about how to set up a quick-and-dirty OpenShift environment on Atomic.  Here, we’ll talk about firing up a test application, just to verify that everything works.

For my work, we’re looking at OpenShift, and I decided I’d set up an OpenShift Origin setup at home on my KVM box using CentOS Atomic.  This is a really basic setup, involving one master, two nodes, and no NFS persistent volumes (yet!).  We also don’t permit pushing to DockerHub, since this will be a completely private setup.  I won’t go into how to actually setup Atomic instances here.

I’ve been messing about with getting back into X3 in the past few days, specifically with Albion Prelude.  I spent ages with Terran Conflict, back in the day.

There’s a few issues with running Vagrant with Libvirt on Ubuntu 16.04 .  Namely, the bundled version of Vagrant is broken.  Whoops!

I do a fair bit of messing around with Linux in VMware Workstation on Windows.  This tends to make the underlying VMDK increase rapidly in size, and the ‘Compact’ feature doesn’t work in the current version of Workstation.

If you’ve configured Dropbear (the SSH server) for OpenWRT so that it has a secondary listener for your WAN port (you may want to do this if you want the WAN SSH listener on a different port from the default), then you’ve probably noticed that it doesn’t come up on its own after your WAN link drops.
