Docker on Xen PV or Xen HVM?

aglodekaglodek Member

I'm exploring Docker and the potential platform base. I know it runs inside KVM boxes, but not inside OpenVZ boxes. Has anybody got Docker running inside (1) Xen PV or (2) Xen HVM box?

    HVM only

  • @cassa said: HVM only

    That seems about right. But have you actually successfully installed and ran Docker inside Xen HVM?

  • Docker runs fine inside XenPV too. Your provider should support PV-GRUB. (adds a little RAM usage to hold the extra kernel image)

    I have it working on both my Prometeus Xen instances.

  • @vimalware, @StellaEV: sorry for the noob questions, but Docker's documentation is a little limited: am I correct in assuming that, same as with OpenVZ, each container under Docker requires an extra ipv4 address assigned to the box?

    @aglodek : Docker is basically a jail facilitator using LXC or other supported container tech. Extra IPv4 is not necessary.
    Docker comes out of the box with port-to-port mapping options.

    This: serversforhackers.com/Getting-started-with-docker/ is one of the better guides that I've seen.
