Running Docker on two hosts, bridged with Open vSwitch

This Gist shows how to use Open vSwitch to bridge Docker containers on two hosts. It is based on this blog post http://goldmann.pl/blog/2014/01/21/connecting-docker-containers-on-multiple-hosts/.

A similar Gist using Tinc instead of Open vSwitch is available: https://gist.github.com/noteed/11031504.

Setup

tmux cheat sheet

(C-x means ctrl+x, M-x means alt+x)

The default prefix is C-b. If you (or your muscle memory) prefer C-a, you need to add this to ~/.tmux.conf:

remap prefix to Control + a
