A bit off topic, but has anyone used K8s along with Proxmox?
- Nux 8y agoNot a k8s user, but no reason it shouldn't work from what I read about it. Spawn a few CoreOS or RancherOS VMs and off you go. Some people even used it with LXC, though it seems a bit of a work. e.g. https://medium.com/@kvaps/run-kubernetes-in-lxc-container-f04aa94b6c9c https://medium.com/@kvaps/run-kubernetes-in-lxc-container-f0...
- lprd 8y agoGonna check this out, thank you! I tried installing CoreOS a couple years ago and I recall encountering some issues using LXC, but maybe it'll work now :)
- erinnh 8y agoYes. I run my k8s cluster on a Proxmox host. Any specific questions you have?
- lprd 8y agoI'm mostly curious how you got it all set up? Did you install something like CoreOS as the host?
- erinnh 8y agoSorry for the late answer. Host (inside the VM) is a plain Ubuntu 18.04 + Docker 18.06 and Kubernetes 1.13. Currently I have 1 Master and 2 Workers. I tried to use LXC (and it worked), but for some reason the same setup resulted in 50% (yes, 50%) IOWAIT with LXC in comparison to 4-5% in the 3 KVMs. I didnt really care to look too far into the reason. The server I run it on only has 2 7200rpm SATA drives in Raid 1, so its obviously not the best thing youd want for massive load or an actual production setup. But its basically my playpen + some private "production" servers, so with 1 User the performance doesnt really matter.
