How to set up dlite (stable 1.1.5) on OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)

etc--exports

# BEGIN: dlite
/Users -network 192.168.64.0 -mask 255.255.255.0 -alldirs -maproot=root:wheel
# END: dlite

etc--hosts

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1	localhost
255.255.255.255	broadcasthost
::1             localhost

Install dlite.markdown

With homebrew

Install:

brew install dlite
sudo dlite install
dlite update -v 2.3.0
dlite start

Without homebrew

Download from releases.

mv ~/Downloads/dlite /usr/local/bin
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/dlite
sudo dlite install
dlite update -v 2.3.0
dlite start

NFS setup

Check to make sure /etc/exports, which is used for NFS mounting, contain something like what I have in the file etc--exports. If not:

sudo curl -o /etc/exports https://gist.githubusercontent.com/0x414A/c1c52a031b0796ceef02d70ef2041931/raw/etc--hosts

I'm not sure why but sometimes dlite fails to set up /etc/exports.

Troubleshooting

If you get something like this:

docker run hello-world
docker: Error response from daemon: client is newer than server (client API version: 1.23, server API version: 1.22).
See 'docker run --help'.

You have to manually update the DHyve OS:

dlite stop && dlite update -v 2.3.0 && dlite start
