There’s a plenty of articles out there on VFIO GPU pass through out there, so I’ll skip many of those details here to let us focus on stuff that’s somewhat specific to Dell R711.
Before we get to the nitty gritty details of the whole setup, just a short warning: If the GPU pass through is the only use case you want to cover, starting with Dell R710 is absolutely not the way to do it.
Here’s why:

This could've been called "Learning Kubernetes the hard way", because that's basically what I was trying to achieve here. It wasn't so much about learning how to use Kubernetes via its ingenious API as it was about learning about its individual components. If you want to just run Kubernetes locally, there's Minikube, that will give you nice VM with everything already set up.
What I've wanted to achieve is to have a set of components, all nicely isolated with a well defined connection between each other so I can add them, remove them and break the connections and see how this affects the cluster. To put it simply I was interested in Ops side of running Kubernetes. This is why I took Hyperkube and mixed it with docker-compose and tried to stand up Kubernetes "from scratch".
Let's get started..

Earlier on I've shown you how I run docker containers on NAS using systemd. This time, I'll show you an easy way to configure systemd with Ansible that will get you running containers in no time. (and in reproducible and automated way)

Has science gone too far? It might look so, because:
Well let me explain my reasons.

As I've mentioned before, I'm using HP Microserver Gen8 as a small home NAS. There is a lot of stuff stored there, but the primary reason why I actually started using NAS (back then slow, but hackable D-link DNS-323) was to store my photo collection. With ZFS, mirrored drives and extra backup to off-site location, the data on it should be reasonably safe, right? However that's not all that useful if most of the recent photos reside on the SD card inside the camera on in the case somewhere, just because I didn't have time to copy them to the NAS yet. So what can we do about it if we have 15 minutes to spare? Let's automate it a bit!
