Before we begin: This is in no way production ready, as the title states. In a production setup you would put the internal registry on a persistent storage, you would probably have more than one master node and you would probably have more than on compute node. Security is not covered at all here. This post is intended to quickly…

A couple of weeks ago, a customer asked me how to restart containers automatically after a reboot of the underlying host. In his context, it was not an insignificant question because some containers are concerned by SQL Server databases and he wanted to stay relaxed as long as possible even after a maintenance of the Linux host by sysadmins.
