#clusterhat — Public Fediverse posts

My #Raspberrypi cluster is like a goldfish. It doesn't do a lot. I'm simply glad it's alive and healthy.
#clusterhat

And we survived a reboot.

I think that deserves a cup of tea!
#Raspberrypi #clusterhat #visualizer

pi@pi0:~ $ ansible all -i hosts -m shell -a "docker system prune -a -f --volumes" --become

Just freed up over 1.6 Gigabytes of disk space

That's two years' worth of junk from messing about. 🤣

#Clusterhat #DockerSwarm #Ansible

Spent some time resurrecting my #raspberrypi cluster. It looks like every man and his dog has dropped support for Pi Zero 1st Gen., which hasn't made it any easier. Still, as the saying goes:

"There's still life in the old bugger, yet."
#clusterhat #8086

Getting back to testing Trixie images again today 😀 .

#ClusterHAT #Trixie

An updated ClusterHAT v2.6 will be available shortly.

The Cluster HAT is a simple way to connect up to 4 Raspberry Pi Zero to a host Raspberry Pi using USB Gadget network and serial with I2C power control via GPIO.

The main changes are:

* The USB HUB updated to the CH334F which has a Multiple Transaction Translator (MTT).
* The (now obsolete) XRA1200P I/O expander is replaced by an ATtiny1616 which ships with firmware emulating the XRA1200P. It also has a built-in UPDI programmer for the ATtiny1616 allowing simple updates or switching to custom/more advanced firmware.

What about update the #ClusterHAT #Debian package for 13 #Trixie ?

https://github.com/PureHTML/clusterhat-image

#RaspberryPi

You'll need to use Raspberry Pi Imager version 1.9.x for now if you want to customise Cluster HAT images.

@neil LOL
It's a Marmite Cluster!
#raspberrypi #clusterhat

Well, that's the Docker Engines brought into line on the #clusterhat Still need to update Portainer
#raspberrypi

Decided to be a good boy and run updates on the #clusterhat OMG. There's a tonne of them and all five #raspberrypi's need updating.

I've only done three so far. 😞

Turned it all off now.
#clusterhat #raspberrypi

And yet lazydocker is happy(ish)?
#clusterhat #raspberrypi

I just looked at how to update @portainerio (CE) to the latest version. I'm running 1.24.2, and I'm depressed again. Looks like a right faff. 😞

Oh, and $ docker node ls works, but $ docker service ls returns nothing, so something is wrong somewhere?
#clusterhat #raspberrypi

I might be getting somewhere with the dust blown off the #clusterhat. I've recreated the swarm, and in my novice eyes, it seems a lot happier.
#clusterhat #raspberrypi

Ah, I remember now why the #clusterhat was chucked on a shelf. It's broken, in't it. I say broken. Portainer works; I had to reset the password coz I'd forgotten it, hadn't I? But I think the swarm no longer works.

pi@pi0:~ $ docker service ls

Error response from daemon: This node is not a swarm manager. Use "docker swarm init" or "docker swarm join" to connect this node to swarm and try again.

Not forgetting the Pi zeros are wrong: 172.17.0.0/16

And #clusterhat makes six Pi
Gonna play with this today if I get a chance.

My 30% off Black Friday / Small Business Saturday / Cyber Monday sale is live on @tindie https://www.tindie.com/stores/8086net/items/ and #eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/8086consultancy 🎉. Yes it's early (for me) but the #ClusterHAT is back in stock and it felt wrong for those who've been waiting for it to miss out on the sale price 😃 .

Replacement RPi 5V@5A 27W PSU has arrived from #ThePiHut (backorder on the 10th) 🥳 .

#RaspberryPi 5 (4GB+active cooler) and four Pi Zero 2W on a #ClusterHAT all running "stress-ng --matrix 0" is happy using ~4.49A/22.8W (the 60mm fan is to stop the Zeros from thermal throttling).

The Pi 5 is booting the test Bookworm (arm64) Lite image from the USB2 connected 500GB M.2 NVMe (doesn't boot when using USB3), the Pi Zero 2W are all booting over USB using the Bookworm (arm64) usbboot archive.

Test #Bookworm #ClusterCTRL #ClusterHAT images have been uploaded to https://dist.8086.net/clusterctrl/testing/ check https://groups.google.com/g/clusterhat/c/tOKqbmlhl58 for details.

My #Pi5 has arrived so I've started looking at updating the #ClusterHAT/#ClusterCTRL images to bookworm again.

The first problem not found in the beta or 2023-10-10 bookworm images but from an update is "raspi-config nonint do_serial 0" no longer works as the non-interactive options to manage the serial port have been "tidied" ( https://github.com/RPi-Distro/raspi-config/commit/a5bd201044510a208ac481829fd4dd18f915ad47 ) aka removed 😭.

@rpilocator working out which of my products don't work this time as something always breaks 🤣 . Then I'll be testing my bookworm updates work OK on the Pi5 before releasing updated #ClusterHAT images 🙃 .

My third #ClusterHAT is ready for service now in #Prague #CzechRepublic - another happy end for @sales's business. Check out their other products: https://clusterhat.com/

My third #ClusterHAT by @burtyb is waiting for its #raspberrypi

Please feel free to download and install new #ClusterHAT software unofficial packages for #Debian with fresh upstream changes by original author Chris Burton @burtyb
