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

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*.
