Keep in mind that containers can't be live migrated!

To those who believe #Firecracker is a good idea for running #containers in another protective layer, should just migrate to #QEMU #microvms on #SmartOS, which will protect the #VM within a container.

Hey @dexter@bsd.network, when will #bhyve support microvms (https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/system/i386/microvm.html) ? I am curious to see if @cperciva@mastodon.social 's #FreeBSD kernel work allowing it to boot in ~20ms, works over there, and gets carried over into #OmniOS.

Managing jails and Bhyve VMs is easy once you know the commands on the CLI.

Cronos to the rescue, cbsd web interface: Jails, Bhyve Vms creation, rename, etc. Easy peasy.
And access to the console via VNC on the fly.
It can be installed from an image as full blown freebsd system with Clonos on top.
The install method on topof an existing Freebsd system (14.1) did not completely work as intended.
A very good alternative to proxmox on top of linux

* Assigned Resources: Rebalances VMs by their max. assigned resources to guarantee the resources (avoid overprovisioning)

I am considering moving some jails and bhyve VMs from Bastille BSD to CBSD.
CBSD menu structure and options are in some cases much better.
I can export from one, import to the other but no way these are compatible of course. Is there a workaround? Except the tedious one of manually converting them

I'm trying Hoster - both for some test VMs and jails. I like it!

It's still in early stages of development, but this looks absolutely interesting:

There reason why my bhyve guest running slow: vm-bhyve runs the vm with its default cpu configuration (which is 2 cores) and e1000. Read, edit and test are the best way to tune up things. #vmbhyve #bhyve

@jloc0 really nice!!! I should install again #openbsd :)

but now I'm about to test #openzfs with #slackware current first in a #vm, I liked to test and test it, documenting a little them go to full install in my laptop.

Shhh! Something is coming... Don't tell anyone.

This morning, a colleague (a sysadmin who works exclusively on Red Hat) needed to quickly create a VM for a reverse proxy. Among the requirements:

Minimal, only for nginx
Root file system on btrfs (I don't know why, but it's their internal policy)
Be online ASAP

I swiftly installed Alpine Linux for them. With just two commands, I set up the root on btrfs and got the setup running. Within a minute, the VM was up; in ten seconds, nginx was installed, and within two minutes, it was configured.

They were amazed by the speed and lightness of it all, as well as the updated kernel.

Alpine Linux remains, in my opinion, an excellent and flexible solution in the Linux environment.
