Docker is not suitable for the hypervisor role. You lose most of the advantages of docker, and gain a bunch of weirdness in your instances. It was never designed to act like a whole machine, so don't try to bend it to be one. It's an app, to be run on computers, and OpenStack is excellent at managing computers and computer-like things in various forms. Your options are this: * Ironic - just run Docker in baremetal boxes booted by Nova. * KVM - Same, but on VMs so you can chop the hardware up more. * LXD - You can run Docker inside LXD. Main reason to do this is that you think KVM is too heavyweight. > Sent from my iPhone > > > On 31 Mar 2017, at 19:27, Martinx - ジェームズ <thiagocmarti...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Why not LXD instead of Docker? ;-) > > > >> On 31 March 2017 at 08:17, Jorge Luiz Correa <corre...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hi!
