Note on fedora24 with digital ocean: firewalld is the new firewall management daemon for F24, but it’s not installed by default on d.o:
dnf install firewalld
service firewalld start
setenforce 0 # if you want to disable selinux

Also firewalld and docker can conflict, docker needs to be started after firewalld.

Installing influx on docker:

dnf install docker
service docker start
docker pull docker.io/tutum/influxdb
mkdir /var/influxdb
firewall-cmd --add-port=8083/tcp
docker run -d --name influx --volume=/var/influxdb:/data -p 8083:8083 -p 8086:8086 tutum/influxdb
docker logs influx # check that it's running ok


Getting Docker working with ansible:

pip install 'docker-py>=1.7.0' # host side
