Proxmox VE 6.x release includes a feature to add custom cloud-init configs. Unfortunately there is poor documentation, so I had to figure this out by adding pieces of information together.

The custom cloud-init files (user-data, meta-data, network-config)

The cloud-init files need to be stored in a snippet. This is not very well documented:

1. Go to Storage View -> Storage -> Add -> Directory
2. Give it an ID such as snippets, and specify any path on your host such as /snippets
3. Under Content choose Snippets and de-select Disk image (optional)
4. Upload (scp/rsync/whatever) your user-data, meta-data, network-config files to your proxmox server in /snippets/snippets/ (the directory should be there if you followed steps 1-3)

Prevent creation of vmmem files in VMware (Windows)

Issue

VMWare creates .vmem files to back the guest RAM. On the host this causes disk thrashing especially during powering on and off the guest.

Solution

Add the following lines to the .vmx file to prevent creation of .vmem files. This will reduce disk IO and VM performance will improve especially on non-SSD disks.

Steps to build Android kernel and system for LXC:

1. Download Android SDK, NDK, system and kernel source code;
2. Download modified lxc and libcap source code (ppoffiec/lxc-android, ppoffice/libcap-android)
3. Build Android system from source first so that we can link to its shared library when we build lxc (or maybe we don't have to);
4. Modify Android kernel config and make sure lxc-checkconfig does not report any missing features. Then build kernel;
5. Modify Android system/core/rootdir/init.rc according to init.rc.diff. Make sure you mount all the cgroup subsystems needed (cpu, cpuacct, cpuset, memory, pids, devices, freezer, blkio) under /sys/fs/cgruop, otherwise lxc won't find them;
6. Rebuilt the Android system image so that the modified init.rc is in the image;
7. Fire up the emulator with custom kernel (emulator -kernel kernel-file-path) and use adb shell and dmesg to check if everything is doing ok.

Transparent proxy for Docker containers

If the Docker host is placed inside a proxy server, it needs to add the proxy configuration to each Dockerfile such as ENV http_proxy.

Following allows transparent access from the container to outside without any proxy configuration.

1. Set up the transparent proxy
2. Apply iptables rule for the transparent proxy
