I have no idea if it is working and I’m going to bed before trying to find out. It is started.
Three VMs each with a ZooKeeper, BookKeeper, and Broker running on them. Once I get it tested, I’m definitely arranging this properly and putting it on github. This should not have been so difficult.
On the network front, my IP addresses changed (192.168.2.23 and 192.168.2.24 swapped). I figured out where they are coming from: My router’s DHCP server. I have it configured to only allocate 192.168.2.2-127 but with the whole subnet masked (255.255.255.0 or /24, however you want to look at it). This means I can grab static addresses in the top half; .223, .224, and .225 seem easy to update configuration files with. I’ll do that, tomorrow.
You can configure a DNS server for Docker to use with the docker run command using the admittedly obvious --dns option. I have one on the firewall (running Pi Hole), which is on the other side of that router. I could add names there. I’m considering a “utility” VM for that sort of thing. First, static IPs; then I’ll worry about names. And Kubernetes is lurking out there. I need to find out how it deals with cross-VM networking before getting too carried away.
BTW: The Pulsar logo is a vector graphic and Gimp just handled it. That was nice.
