I just bought aan IP KVM switch for a hundo, now heading to the store foir a case of frosty’s and re-rack my servers to make room.

The one factor that no one seems to have mentioned yet that is key for many of us is LEARNING …

It’s a great way to learn virtualization and containerization

I use it exclusively to run Linux containers, it makes it very convenient to backup and restore as well as replicate environments.

We are now migrating our lab at work away from VMW

That’s exactly what I have, and that’s exactly what I wanted … DARN … oh well. I guess it’s nice to have the document sync as well

correct, it also has the benefit of allowing my IP to change without impacting public or private access.

I do something similar I use Pangolin (Which is an EXCELLENT project) as a self hosted alternative to cloudflareD tunels. I host it on a public VPS and then thru it tunnel web traffic to my public resources, that way I don’t have to expose my IP or have a static. Then I also use netbird as an overlay network not only to access my servers remotely but also to “join” two sites via a VPN (Backup server at my mom’s)

Is it better than NC?

Interestingly enough … the Cuban slang for “gay” is the same word we use to describe one of these gender changing fish

“Cherna” … while more light heated than the English F word, it’s still a derogatory term so please don’t use it on your friends.

Actually now that I think about it, this is how it’s most commonly used … Straight males sling it to their other straight male friends.

This is bad news … I also host my Pangolin ingress node on Ionos … Can you let me know what you pick?

Watch them try to ban raspberry pi now … like they did with the flipper

That’s fucking awesome!

I feel like this woman is about to give a bomb ass obituary so fucking powerful that it’s going to start a revolution https://youtu.be/TaKrm5txGCQ?t=4

because it’s fake … I’m implying the orange king boy rapist is going to offer her a pardon in exchange for lying under oath

I can’t believe no one has commented this yet.

She’s not going to say there’s no list. She’s going to say she has the list and it’s conveniently going to contain all of trump’s enemies … probably including Obama.

Interesting, thanks for sharing.

Any clue what the power draw on the disk array is? I did some basic measurement with the kill-a-watt and a spinner takes about 6-7W where as an SSD takes about 2, the price difference is too much for my use case tho, performance per watt per TB, I’m better off with 1 single disk (or a mirror pair) of 6 TB in spinning rust.

I’m not particularly concerned about data security since I’m syncing evrything 3 ways. Whenever one of the drive fails I’ll consider it a “surprise disaster recovery exercise” XD

Appreciate your input. K8 is on the roadmap. Currently on portrait using pangolin as a tunneled proxy.

Eventually plan to migrate from Joomla in LXC to a docker swarm load balanced by pangolin.

It does but there’s a lot of other stuff connected that I can’t unplug. I ended up getting a kill a watt and since the server has redundant power supplies I checked by unplugging one at a time.

I’m using 168W on an R430 with 2 E5-1220’s and 128 G and 8 spinners.

I don’t trust oracle at all. The guide uses them because they’re free (It includes a business generator so that oracle doesn’t reclaim your box)

I personaly went with IONOS because they have a 2.99 plan with unlimited bandwidth which is great for pangolin as that’s routing traffic for my “media” box

Host a pangolin reverse proxy on a free oracle cloud VPS! It’s super nice to redirect online traffic to a LAN resource, that way you can share your home lab with friends and family without having to forward any ports or loosen your security posture.

I also highly recommend this suite of tools for downloading and streaming legal media via torrent because I would never endorse piracy.

Interesting,

I’ve automated deployment with SDNET and templates, but the other stuff you’re doing with terraform is more akin “Orchestration” There must be some GUI for terraform that works with proxmox.

I guess you could do the same with expansible and playbooks but it sounds like you’re looking for something with a GUI that does the work for you.

I can’t think of any, but proxmox does have an API … wondering why no one has done this yet …
