tobilg/mesos-slave repository overview

⁠Mesos Slave

This Docker image is using the base tobilg/mesos image, which is a build of the lastest Mesos version available in the Mesos Git repository⁠. Currently, the latest version is 0.24.0.

⁠Configuration

Mesos allows you to set all configuration options⁠ via environment variables. That means that you don't need any additional scripts to start up a Mesos slave node using this Docker image; just pass in -e options to set each configuration option:

$ docker run -d \
    --name mesos_slave \
    -e MESOS_LOG_DIR=/var/log/mesos/slave \
    -e MESOS_WORK_DIR=/var/lib/mesos/slave \
    -e MESOS_MASTER=[zookeeper URL] \
    -p 5051:5051 \
    tobilg/mesos-slave

Also note the -p option, which exposes the default Mesos slave TCP port (5051) on the container host.

⁠Running containerizers

You can use the containerizers (Mesos, Docker) by providing the following options:

$ docker run -d \
    --name mesos_slave \
    --privileged \
    -e MESOS_LOG_DIR=/var/log/mesos/slave \
    -e MESOS_MASTER=[zookeeper URL] \
    -e MESOS_EXECUTOR_REGISTRATION_TIMEOUT=5mins \
    -e MESOS_ISOLATON=cgroups/cpu,cgroups/mem \
    -e MESOS_CONTAINERIZERS=docker,mesos \
    -v /run/docker.sock:/run/docker.sock \
    -v /sys:/sys \
    -v /proc:/proc \
    -p 5051:5051 \
    tobilg/mesos-slave

⁠Networking

If you want your Mesos slave to be accessible via the Docker host ip, then you should add the following options:

    --net=host \
    -e MESOS_IP=$(/usr/bin/ip -o -4 addr list eth0 | grep global | awk '{print $4}' | cut -d -f1) \
    -e MESOS_HOSTNAME=$(/usr/bin/hostname) \

Be sure to replace eth0 with the actual interface your host is using for external access. For RedHat/CentOS/Fedora-based hosts' the MESOS_IP line needs to replaced with

    -e MESOS_IP=$(/sbin/ifconfig eth0 | grep 'inet ' | awk '{print $2}') \
