It's really hard to tell what the benefits of Incus over Ganeti are. The Incus site doesn't really lead with features or benefits that I can see. About the only things I could figure out are that Incus can manage containers and can manage instance creation through cloning a base volume, where ganeti (afaik) always creates volume and populates it. Well, and Incus seems to be MUCH more popular than Ganeti.
I searched the documentation but it wasn't really clear what its live migration and ZFS migration story is, but when I asked Claude to research it, it tells me that it supports live migration via ZFS snapshot replication, which is exactly what I'm looking for. I implemented a ganeti storage driver that does the same thing and am just getting ready to start testing it, but if Incus supports it I might look at moving that direction.
Anyone use Incus live migration with ZFS?
- FireBeyond 4mo agoYeah, one thing I've found with Nix is that documentation is generally very terse and assumes you're capable of filling the blanks yourself, even though you might not know they exist. Like... this... this is not great documentation (I know I know, contribute myself): https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Incus https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Incus Within a few lines: > To provide non-root access to the Incus server, you will want to add your user to the incus-admin group. Don't forget to reboot. I mean I get that they probably mean /etc/group, but going on from there plenty of examples of "just change the config to use x" or similar.
