Nutanix and DCOS Part 1

In order to be able to work on multiple projects (one for Kubernetes / Openstack/Helm and one for DCOS Mesos), I have started work on deploying VM's inside of a Nutanix CE cluster.  

I have 3 Intel NUC nodes with 32G RAM each.  Even with the Nutanix overhead of 8G per machine that still leaves me with 72G for VMs in my cluster which is much more than i can get via Vagrant on my laptop.



Currently, I have successfully deployed the DCOS GUI to a Centos7 image that I got running in Nutanix.  I also cloned the Centos image that had Docker 13.1 installed to the master and agent and public nodes.  



In Part2 I will go over the Deployment steps for DCOS and attempt to get the SMACK stack running in the cluster.
