Mesos on OS X
Hey all,
We're contemplating setting up a small OS X Mesos cluster for running iOS
tests. I know Mesos technically builds on Macs, but has anyone ever had
experience with a long running cluster on OS X? Is it possible?
Recommended? Not recommended?
Thanks,
Sunil

Thanks all, that sounds promising! We'll probably give it a go and see how
that works out...

There's no isolation between containers on OSX. Process management is based
on posix process tree (unlike cgroups on Linux), which has some limitations.
If you're fine with the above, then it should work.

MacOS is a supported platform, you can see the supported versions here:
http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/building/
The containerization maintainers could probably chime in to elaborate on
the isolation caveats. For example, you won't have many of the resource
isolators available and the launcher cannot prevent processes from
"escaping" from the "container".

I don’t have long running experience but I would expect it to work fine… the thing to be aware of is that under OSX there are no cgroup constraints… you also may want to review the APPLE difference: https://github.com/apache/mesos/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=__APPLE__&type= <https://github.com/apache/mesos/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=__APPLE__&type=>
