等等新特性。

VMware 新出的容器工具 vctl

使用说明

vctl - A CLI tool for the container engine powered by VMware Workstation
vctl Highlights:
• Build and run OCI containers.
• Push and pull container images between remote registries & local storage.
• Use a lightweight virtual machine (CRX VM) based on VMware Photon OS to host a container. Use 'vctl system config -h' to learn more.
• Easy shell access into virtual machine that hosts container. See 'vctl execvm’.

USAGE:
  vctl COMMAND [OPTIONS]

COMMANDS:
  build                        Build a container image from a Dockerfile.

  start                        Start an existing container.
  stop                         Stop a container.
  system                       Manage the container engine.
  tag                          Tag container images.
  version                      Print the version of vctl.
  volume                       Manage volumes.

Run 'vctl COMMAND --help' for more information on a command.

OPTIONS:
  -h, --help   Help for vctl

小试牛刀

1. 启动vctl命令行工具

vctl system start

2. 基本用法

vctl.exe run -d  -p 80:80 --name nginx --restart unless-stopped daocloud.io/nginx #创建容器

vctl.exe ps # 查看运行中的容器。
────    ─────                      ───────                   ──               ─────       ──────    ─────────────
NAME    IMAGE                      COMMAND                   IP               PORTS       STATUS    CREATION TIME
────    ─────                      ───────                   ──               ─────       ──────    ─────────────
nginx   daocloud.io/nginx:latest   /docker-entrypoint.s...   192.168.197.10   80:80/tcp   running   2020-09-17T22:28:44+08:00

容器与虚拟机网络融合

通过上面vctl ps 命令查看到容器的IP其实是属于VMware Workstation 安装时自动创建的虚拟网络VMnet8子网下。是不是发现了什么？

对，就是容器和虚拟机之间的网络处于同一平面，虚拟机与容器在网络中地位同等。

总结

笔者认为稳态和敏态两种类型应用将在未来企业架构中长期并存的，所以VMware这种将容器和虚拟化高度融合的方案是非常巧妙的，容器满足互联网化敏态应用的高速迭代场景，虚拟化兼顾需要稳态的数据库等中间件以及容器化成本过高的老旧系统场景。
