Maybe I'm biased, but I'm shocked when I see people still running iocage.
It's not that it's bad software, it just hasn't been maintained in literal years!
How are people still running software that never gets patched? Crazy to me!
For those on iocage that still need a new home, we can import your jails natively. A simple iocage export and bastille import and you're migrated to a supported platform.

Falls Ihr mal grössere Jails von iocage nach bastille migrieren müsst

It looks like iocage has been abandoned and I've found Bastille to have some advantages over it.
I tried to look up a way to migrate my jails to Bastille but so far everything includes exporting them from one system to another. Anyone know if I can do this on one system?
It seems that I should, given that both programs just manage the jails, but iocage uses a json file instead of the normal jail config and I'm not exactly sure what it's doing.

I've come from using #iocage and this is a breeze of fresh air!
Had to get use to some new things to me like the pf integration (rdr), and other stuff I'm still exploring but rather than that it's been awesome!
Currently have #AdGuardHome, #Gitea, #Plex, #Nextcloud, #Matrix, #Zabbix and #OpenVPN. All running behind a #nginx reverse-proxy.
Pretty happy with the results!
Amazing job so far! Congrats!!!

@BastilleBSD I used #iocage for some years to test updates of a complete #puppet infrastructure before committing the #FreeBSD ports.
I recently starting to switch to #bastille because iocage seems dead 😟. Some cool features make me think I can refactor some code to make it easier to maintain.
It is a long term project and I work on it with each new Puppet release. For now, changes are only in my working directory, but Puppet 8 being released in February, this might change soon 😉.

Et sinon, avec #iocage, j’ai découvert la propriété « jail_zfs » : si mise à 1, iocage crée automatiquement un dataset ZFS pour la jail, ce qui permet d’avoir des données persistantes qui résident à l’extérieur de la jail. Un peu comme l’option -v de Docker. Très pratique.

👋 Hey #FreeBSD friends!
In a project I rely on #iocage to ease-up jails management from a script (update a template, create a bunch of jails from this template, install WIP ports, run commands to check they work, delete jails).
I am lacking some feature and was about to contribute some code but the project seems dead 💀 (last commit is more than 1 year old, recent PR have no feedback, CI is broken).
Maybe Its time to consider another tool… What are you using to script jails nowadays?

Recently I talked about the #FreeBSD, #Linux, #MacOSX #CheatSheet file I have.
I'm so proud today to announce that it's already on #GitLab.
Please share, fork, and contribute!

@xanderio It's complicated… It works ok-ish when you just want to configure a FreeBSD host.
It get's a lot more complicated when you want to use jails, which I infer from the #iocage Tag.
The iocage ansible adapter is somewhat incomplete, somewhat buggy, but it basically works.
If you want to use ansible in jails you have to either expose SSH directly in the jail (and use the Host as an SSH Jumphost) or do raw commands from the host or use iocage. -
How do you manage your #iocage jails with Ansible? All the roles i'm finding are over a year old and look unmainted.

CW: #SysadminLife
Spent another evening with @luto playing with #Ansible and #FreeBSD #iocage(8).
Verdict: Creating jails now worked with Ansible/iocage. We didn't manage to get networking to work at all, no matter whether shared IP or VNAT. (Compiled our own kernel for VIMAGE.)
Anyone know if Ansible ezjail-admin(8) integration works any better? Or is the only working way to manage jails with Ansible to write jails.conf files?
Is it that I just don't know enough about FreeBSD/jails/tech yet?
