[Hawkular-dev] Tip: Hawkular running in Openshift on OS/X

[Mike Thompson]

This pertains only to Hawkular services running on Mac OS/X via Openshift.

There is a small but critical detail that *must* be adjusted before running
Hawkular in Openshift on OS/X. *Not doing so will result in an
endless(almost) looping and crashing of pods *with very little information
because of the pod logs/events crash very close to startup.

The trick here is to make sure that the OS/X docker has enough memory
because the default is only 2 Gb, which is not enough to run
Hawkular/Cassandra. To adjust this setting go into docker preferences and
find the *Advanced* tab. There you can adjust the Memory and CPU. The
memory is set initially at 2Gb which is not sufficient for
Hawkular/Cassandra -- *adjust this to 8 Gb or more*.

The feel free to run Hawuklar/Cassandra:
`oc new-project mm-app;oc process -f hawkular-services-ephemeral.yaml | oc
create -f -`

Special thanks to Matt Wringe and Matt Mahoney for their time and expertise
in diagnosing this issue.
