Running this https://github.com/taliesins/packer-baseboxes/blob/master/hyperv-ubuntu-16.04.json

• Generation 2 VM
• Working boot commands
• Passes preseed through HTTP

It works, all except for the last shutdown step. This is described at taliesins/packer-baseboxes#2, but the root cause isn't known yet.

packer.exe build -parallel=true hyperv-ubuntu-16.04.json

packer.exe build -only=hyperv-iso windows_2016_docker.json

hyperv-iso output will be in this color.

Warnings for build 'hyperv-iso':

* For nested virtualization, when virtualization extension is enabled, mac spoofing should be allowed.

Using Azure Container Service with Kubernetes and Windows containers

There's still a problem with the PowerShell module & Azure Container Service. For now you'll need to use the portal:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-service/container-service-kubernetes-windows-walkthrough

Later, if you'd like to try using PowerShell to deploy a cluster, then follow the next section. Otherwise, skip to "Building & Deploying MusicStore"

Just an experiment setting up a test deployment of Zookeeper + Mesos + Marathon on an existing machine with Docker installed.

Running it

docker-compose up -d

I've made the mistake of accidently removing VMs with Remove-VM or Hyper-V Manager that I originally created with Vagrant. This is a set of code snippets I'm using to help prevent that and make it easy to find all Vagrant created VMs, remove the ones I don't need, then delete the boxes.

$oldpwd = $pwd ; gci -r Vagrantfile | %{ cd $_.Directory ; Write-Output "Checking status at $pwd" ; vagrant.exe status } ; cd $oldpwd

Other things I still need to do:

There's a prebuilt VHD with Windows Server 2016, Visual Studio 2017, and more for hands on labs available from https://almvm.azurewebsites.net/labs/tfs/ . This will upload it to Azure and create a ready to run VM :)

Unfortunately as of 6/5, it doesn't work. I can't connect to it presumably because Remote Desktop isn't enabled or the firewall port isn't open
