Flocker abandoned?

[holms]

Sorry but last commit is in 2017 + your installation steps doesn't work as S3 bucket URL throws 404 error

Err:18 https://clusterhq-archive.s3.amazonaws.com/ubuntu/9.5/amd64  Release
  404  Not Found

So I assume this project is abandoned? Without flocker using docker-swarm is absolutely impossible.

Yes, the project ended quite a while ago, unfortunately.

That portworx seems to be not for virtual machines? It requires some kind of partition to exist on machine, which is non-sense in IAAS environment.

@holms how so? Portworx just need a disk/device. It’s fairly common to attach disks to virtual machines and in fact we deploy this way with customers today. Let me know If you would like more information. In the meantime you can take a look at https://docs.portworx.com/scheduler/docker/install-swarm.html

Creating storage for every node.. why? Just use local disk space. Thanks for link though.
Also having port opened, no idea if I can use consul from swarm itself.. This lot more painful solution than netshare https://github.com/ContainX/docker-volume-netshare, because after all I need to automate all of it, and it's lot more body movements in here.

@holms I think I saw you on slack? But the difference is that the vms would participate in a Portworx storage cluster using the block device on the vms you want Portworx to run on. Then other vms (or the same ones) can run applications and can create many volumes from that cluster and set per volume settings on them like replication etc.

Alright trying to automate digital ocean volumes, also got etcd cluster installed will see how it will go :) Portworx seems to be the only stable solution for swarm :/
