>>102388428I'm honestly not sure how you could worry about hunger living in america at any budget, even if you can't get food stamps for some reason (literally this asian chick who was living for free in our house for 2 years and going to community college with my younger brother got them). flour is about 4400 calories per dollar white bread is like 3300 if you want to save on cooking costs, peanut butter is about 1400 per calories and has you oil and protein macros. grab whatever the cheapest vegetable with the most fiber and nutrients and you are done.
>>102389012cool story bro
>>102389012>peanut butter is about 1400 per caloriescalories per dollar*And sure it's only like a 5th protien, but you aren't trying to body build, RDA is a paltry 0.36g/lb so if you normal weight ~160lb then 58g of protein or just 270g of peanut butter.That's only slightly above RDA for fat so you should probably supplement that with lean ground meat if it's cheaper near you.
>>102389107You could also just pour out the fat in the peanut butter, but at that point it's almost certainly cheaper to get ground meat.
>>102388978pretty warm, but I have three of them in mini pcs with passive cooling and they've been fine for a year
>>102389151>with passive coolingHm, I might buy one. Where do you get them for $20? I see them for around $90CAD or $60USD.
>>102389012Not to get too off topic but people who claim to not be able to afford food are the type to never buy staples or stock up when sales happen.It's the type to buy their kids the science experiments known as "lunchables" or something similar every day, buy $10 frozen pizzas and other pre-packaged slop.Americans really have a perspective problem where because they are struggling to afford what would be considered decadence in any other part of the world, that they are being wronged with artificially high prices or low wages. You literally can't starve unless you just refuse to eat or seek help.
>>102389283Even if you don't stock up plan ahead or get any sales it's still trivial to not go into a deficit. And desu most Americans need to be in a slight deficit for a year or 2. But if they are just burning money for facsimiles of food that's worse than eating out IMO

I don't understand network cards. What is the purpose of having multiple ports?For example, if I have a 10GbE card with 4 ports. If I connect all 4 ports will I be able to send/receive 40GbE of data?
>>102390157Depends on the card. They'll specify speed per port. Why have more than one port? Lots of reasons. Maybe you're building something like a firewall or router and need WAN and LAN interfaces. Maybe you're just doing some weird shit where you need access to multiple physical networks. Maybe you're doing something unusual with VLANs. Maybe you just want a direct connection between two machines for higher transfer speeds (e.g., replication between two backup servers in the same rack).

Hello everyone. I have acquired 2 network switches, model is DSG-3100-24It has 3x8 ethernet ports and I need to know something.Do I need just 1 ethernet cable from the box to my modem for all other 23 plugs to access the internet?Is it 1 ethernet cable per bank of 8 ports?Do I have to connect the third one into the second, then the second into the first and the first into my modem?I have no idea of how they do workI wanna know more about the usage of a switch, I plan to buy 7 TVs, 7 PS3 Slims 2501A and overclock them + SSDs and install GT5 and GT6 on them to have multi-monitor and I need to know more on switches since I have a spare second one left
>>102394874If you recurse down from the root you will never request a DS record from a server that doesn't know what DNSSEC is.Resolved starts from the domain you requested and goes up towards the root.Resolved will request a DS record from something.something.outlook.com and receive an error, then try something.outlook.com and receive an error, then try outlook.com and receive a signed denial of existence, proving that domain and everything below it is unsigned and all of those requests were pointless.The fact that it does everything in reverse requires it to ignore errors until the end.https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/24747

A switch (even an unmanaged one) will be useful for that. But that requires old enough systems that can work with an alternative OS. Which makes them unsuitable for use as a gaming console.If you want to set up a wall of screens attached to gaming consoles for a single instance of Gran Turismo 5/6, you are looking for the wrong things. Daisy chaining is the concept you're after.7 Screens for 7 Stations would be a setup for a lan party, where all the consoles are attached to the switch, and each one is running its own instance of whatever is being played at the moment.Also, you're at the wrong place. A better place is >>>/g/sqt

Thank you anons for posting.My servers are still mostly docker compose on debian, got 2 tinyminimicros to pair with my main server and installed RKE2 on them, sloooooowly migrating services to k8s to learn it for work and get closer to high availability.Finally had an HDD start to fail - one of Seagate Exos X20 18TB started getting UNCs, wiped it with badblocks, resilvered into ZFS and a few days later it started getting UNCs at the same LBA, despite having 0 sectors pending for remapping. I'll probably return that one.Working with servers for a living turns out to be very tiresome, so I hope you will keep on helping anons with their servers, so that I won't feel guilty for not coming here as often. Well, maybe let's end this post with a question - if you work with servers (sysadmin/devops) and post here often, what do you do to feel not tired doing both? After messing with arguably stupid designs at work, the last thing I want is to come here and argue/guide anons with their own smol home servers, even though it feels a bit guilty to not keep the thread going.I'll try to follow at least this thread until archive.

>>102396704You're not getting a racing sim setup out of that, you're just getting a GT5/6 multimonitor setup. Because nothing else in the console library utilizes that mechanic.>>>/o/ovg might also be a better place for that, as there's nothing you'll need for achieving that related to this place.To connect 3 or 5 (because those are the only supported configurations for a multimonitor setup for that hardware) PS3's together, all you need is a basic unmanaged gigabit switch. From the same company, a DGS-108GL will be more than enough. One cable from your current router/switch/AP combo provided by the ISP, 3/5 cables for the consoles, and you still have 4/2 free ports to connect Smart TVs, desktops, or other networked devices that work with a cable.You don't need a managed switch for that purpose. It also makes it easier, as there's one less thing to configure.And for the record, your plan to buy 7 screens and consoles means you can either have 1 instance with 5 screens and 2 other different instances on a single screen, or 2 instances on 3 screens each and a single console doing something else. GT5/6 doesn't support a 7 screen configuration.
>>102395999Based, I have pretty much the same thing but with my home server instead of that absolutely diabolic contraption you have created. I'm using plain wireguard with tasker on my phone that switches between a local vpn and remote vpn running on a vps so that when I'm on wifi everything is routed locally and not hairpinned through a syncthing relay node. Really want to play around with zerotier or similar at some point since setting up wg manually was a pain in the ass, I'm literally running iBGP just to get proper routing between the NAS and vps to just werk(tm). Shits fucking great though. >take a snapshit with my phone>within seconds the dng is available on my desktop>can edit it in lightroom and the export gets synced back to the phone >want to add some beats to the drive to work >run yt-dlp>instantly available on the phone>doesn't cut out like jewtube during the dozen blackspots along the wayThanks for reading my blog post
>>102396589>Why are you using Linux when it's above your paygrade?but I do it for free...
>>102397070doing anything that people find as a hobby for a living always is tiresome. thats why you rarely see big artists/musicians/game devs/etc do personal work outside their career, atleast not for free.
>>102397834The reason I used zerotier is specifically because I didn't want to mess around with all the retarded NAT traversal stuff (and since non of my machines are public visible) and let zerotier handle it for me. The good thing is I haven't had to spend even a single penny for a VPS or anything similar.In my setup too I have added the address for my server on both local and zerotier in syncthing config so it automatically switches when I'm in LAN vs when I'm away from homeIts truly liberating to have stuff "just werk" which you would otherwise need to pay money for.
>>102397834>>102398193Also I'm interested in the IBGP (server?) thing you are running, could you elaborate? Is it running on your VPS?The great thing about syncthing is that its P2P so if your machines are able to reach out to each other, you are only limited by the network speed.That's where zerotier comes and makes it even better, by making a VPN with all your machines on it so you don't have to worry if you're at home or in fucking Nepal or something. As long as zerotier can connect your machine to the VPN, you can do anything.My phone, laptop, desktop, raspi all are on the zerotier network and since all are running samba servers in addition to syncthing, I can browse all my files from everywhere

What do you guys think of using an old Android phone as a home server? Using a cheap powered hub you can connect HDD/SSDs and keep it charged, while the in built battery acts as a great UPSSoftware support can be shit but a lot of applications have Android apps as well (though they're obviously gimped with bad UIs)
>>102398354I use void linux on most of my machines, so I just set up a container on my NAS, nginx caching reverse proxy, pointing to the upstream repos. Packages are cached for a month, package lists are cached for a few minutes, error responses aren't cached at all. Super simple, only took me a few minutes to set up, works like a charm, highly recommended.
>>102398251Big reason for BGP for me is that I live in the sticks and need multiple ISPs to get decent internet, there is zero wired infrastructure within 5.5km of my property, no fiber, no copper, no power. So I use a long range direction antenna to connect to the nearest 5G tower for speed and a starlink for bulk data transfer. Both shit the bed continuously due to environmental conditions so they need to be able to switch automatically for redundancy. Basically I have a VPS running vyos with iBGP and multiple wireguard tunnel instances, two are for the ISP connections and the other is for when I want to remote in. On the other end my server runs another vyos router with both modems connected, two wireguard "clients" connect to the VPS over the respective modems using fwmark rules and the local iBGP instance exchanges routes and topology with the VPS. Now the critical part is that BGP itself is very slow at detecting topology changes in order to not flap interfaces. So in addition I'm using BFD to detect latency and switch off the 5G when it goes to shit and also allow bulk traffic like syncthing to still work if starlink is down. Effectively the VPS acts as aggregation node for my internet as well as a publicly facing endpoint for my LAN, of course with a firewall so from the outside it just looks like a server with ssh and a bunch of wg endpoints. Additionally the local router treats all of the VPS traffic as foreign even if it originates from a wg client, so only a handful of applications are exposed like syncthing.I haven't had a chance to look into zerotier deep enough to see if it can function correctly with multiple uplinks but if it can it would probably be the better way to go. This shit was a colossal turd to get working 100%
>>102398413In short, pretty retarded.Turning a phone into a server is a worse version of turning a laptop into a server. At least the laptop might be somewhat specced for running services, and you can often remove/replace the battery without issues.With laptops, at least there's a chance that the device won't be harmed by having a constant supply of power, with overcharging protections and stuff like that. But with a phone, especially with some sort of cheap powered hub?Not only is the battery going to shit, it's also going to expand, physically. So the end result is going to be a piece of dangerous electrical waste that won't even boot.But until that happens, you can technically use it as an extremely limited "server" that will require going through multiple hoops to achieve a similar functionality that some older thin client can achieve.It might be just a bit more portable than the thin client or even a laptop, but portability is rarely a goal when considering a HOME server environment.There are guides online that mention how to turn an older android phone into a "server", so it's not a new idea. Doesn't make it any less retarded. If you want a highly portable "server" for "cheap", some used ThinkPads (W or P line) or other equivalents will be much better. And if you don't care about the screen, go DIY, with a NUC or similar device.

so i finally got a nas. built it myself and put in 3 drives for testing. one of which was dead but i expected that since its some old drive i found somewhere in the cellar. where do you guys get your drives? i bought a case with 5 hot swap bays and got a intel n100 board on it. i got the asus board and the hba for 100€ and the case for another 100€. had an short depth ocz modular psu lying around and put put an old 250gb nvme ssd in it as system drive.right now 3 drives are occupied.1x 250gb 3,5" hdd that is unfortunately dead1x 150gb 2,5" hdd1x 500gb 2,5" hddits running omv and im actually quite happy with it but now i want to add some real storage. i was thinking of 5x 4tb drives in raid 5. the issue being storage is fucking expensive.where the fuck do you get cheap storage? i was expecting 4tb hdds to be cheaper than 100€ a pop.working on my home network is gonna bankrupt me.
>>102401475>where do you guys get your drives?For a big RAID in a NAS? Refurbished HDDs provide the best value in terms of disk-hours per dollar. Technically higher failure rates than new, but they're so much cheaper it's worth it. And it's a RAID so disk failure is less of a concern. In <current year> you might as well go larger than 4TB. 8TB disks are like 50% more expensive for twice the capacity.
>>102388949FUCKING jew
>>102401475Nice. I started with shitter HDD than you.3x 250GB HDD SATA 11 2TB HDD SATA2Only used it for testing and replaced all 4 of them with just 2 12TB HDD SATA3. I got them in Amazon's refurbished store. Tech on Tech is a reputable brand. Their online store is called serverpartdeals. Shipping is a bitch however. Use diskprices to check price per TB.I'm guessing you're in the UK?https://diskprices.com/?locale=uk
Assuming all I'm going to hold on my home server is pirated media (which would be a hassle to lose but is completely replaceable) and maybe files that are already backed up elsewhere like photos or PDFs, is there any reason to use several HDDs over one very big one?
>>102399830are you running it via docker? IIRC, it has to run on 80 & 443, and make sure whatever platform its being run on has those open. you shouldnt need to open any ports on the router's firewall to get it to work. Ive never had any issues with my dns conflicting with nginx. >OR set up a NAT to use local DNS but nginx always takes me to my router login screenare you accessing the services via a domain name or just the ip?
>>102401685naziland. though i have some options for cheap and reliable online retailers.amazon was my first stop to check stop to check out some of the prices however.i was not actually considering refurbished drives but i think i might check them out or go to one of those sales companies do when they go bankrupt.
>>102399868>CPU isn't as important as you'd thinkI use Topaz occasionally and some tasks require the CPU more than the GPU. I noticed my CPU was heavily bottlenecking my performance. Once I upgraded the problem went away. Then again, I was on a 10+ year old cpu before the upgrade. In any case, not all forms of ai processing are GPU bound.
>>102401715If you think you only need one disk, then sure. I buy multiple because I run out of space. Especially during new seasons.
>>102401685captcha ate my picdoesnt even recognize the 3.5" drive. i tested the bays by swapping the drives around and they were all recognized. so yeah im looking for cheap storage. technically i can have more than 5 drives. the hba i put in has 8 sata prots and there is another one on the motherboard. the case is a sliverstone silverstone CS351 which i got for half the regular price. the board is an asus prime N100I-D D4 and the hba is the some random one i found. it came preconfigured in it mode though.pic related literally set it up a couple of hours ago. for testing i copied about 100gb of old movies to it and enabled dlna to stream to a few different clients at the same time while i collected some statistics through checkmk.
>>102401756That's fair. When someone says AI in 2024 I just assume they mean LLMs and stable diffusion.
>>102401837Some 3.5" HDD can't power on because of a third pin that's not supposed to get power. Try taping over it and see if it might get recognized. It happened to one of my drives also. I took it out of a Dell computer and after putting the tape it worked.Haven't bought a SAS HBA yet since my P510 still has 3 more SATA ports that's not being used. Once it's full I'll buy one.I also use OMV but as a VM inside Proxmox.
>>102401715It sounds like you're thinking about this solely from the perspective of risk management, which is understandable, but there's more to a RAID than just that.Having an array of disks increases IO speed, and it can also make upgrading easier in the future if you need more space, either by expanding the array or by replacing disks in the array with larger ones.
>>102401889oknerd
>>102401866deepbooru uses ai for image recognition and auto-tags. then there's various video deduplicator projects on github that uses ai find duplicate videos and such. lots of useful projects out there that use ai
>>102401882nah its just dead. its powering on and audibly spins. it probably died at one point and i just forget to shred it and throw it away. im running on bare metal but i do have a proxmox host that runs my locally hosted stuff.thats partly why i wanted a nas so i can host the bulk of data on it and then just access it over thee network.
>>102401889There's definitely IO speed as a benefit but realistically I don't see myself saturating the IO of even a single HDD.99.9% of the time I'd use it for Jellyfin and at the most extreme there would be MAYBE three watchers simultaneously.
>>102401906You could just try. Yeah it turns on but it's in a low power state which is why it's not being recognized.One day I'll get a 3rd PC and be able to run OMV baremetal but not yet. I'm poor and spent money for other and more important reasons. Maybe next year.
Does anyone else just run linux on their nas? Like no retarded truenas or unraid bullshit, just linux with some network shares? It's so simple to set up I don't know why so many self-professed experts and power users spend time struggling with shitty GUIs.
>>102402288no because truenas's gui isnt shitty nor do i spend any time 'struggling' with it. it just does what the fuck I want. its nice not having to remember cli commands for every little thing. i bet in 1 year without touching your server you will 100% forget what the fuck to do if you need to do a basic task that the gui can do.I do however run plain debian on my mini pc because its headless and just runs docker containers.

Downside is you are relying on the seller to provide the warranty.I paid €112 a piece for 12TB enterprise drives with about 20 hours on them and one year warranty.its basically impossible to get refurb drives for a reasonable price in europe.>>102402288yes. just plain debian. I can't stomach having to learn my way around an inherently limited web ui or preconfigured bullshit.though I've been doing this sort of hobby sysadmin crap for over a decade and when I started there just werent good options for a web interface (I wanted to run a minecraft server on my $15 vps)I finally relented and started using docker last year but the vast of my containers are ones I either made myself from a bare image or heavily modified.>>102402553this>>102403329that or tunnelling everything through a vps.

I want to move the stuff I'm running on my personal PC (Minecraft server, shared Jupyter notebook, want to run a Plex server for my Legally Obtained Media) to a dedicated server. Am I retarded if I upgrade my personal PC and stuff my current 4 year old components (Ryzen 5 3600, GTX 1650 Super) into a new case? Am I going to burn down the house in the middle of the night?
>>102404246i would sell those and get an i3 and a quadro
>>102404246So you want to build a new PC and you're going to use your current PC as a server? Yeah, sure. Why not. No, you're not going to burn down the house. It's kinda too high specs to leave 24/7 if you care about power that much but if you turn it off at night then there's no problem.
>>102404351That latter part is what I was worried about. I work with some Euros so I would want to leave it on for them. Unfortunate, thank you though.>>102404279Yeah I'll probably look into getting something like that. Thanks again.
Man, I am so glad I don't have to pay for hydro or electricity at the place I rent.
>>102404396My personal PC is a VM in my dedicated server, it works alright, that way I just run a single machine with everything on it
>>102388428How much performance would I get with harddisks using software RAID5? My current shitty premade NAS box gets like 20 MB/s write with 100% CPU usage. I want to switch to a real system with a powerful CPU.
>>102404489What specs? I wanted to try doing that. Like using Linux as my main OS and just use Windows in a VM. But a lot of games break if it detects that you're in a VM, especially online games which is what I play the most.
>>102404551I get around 125MB/s. So it's limited by my 1GbE intergrated NIC/switch.
>>102404684With spinning rust? That's pretty impressive. Would a 5600G suffice for that speed? I'm not very experienced with RAID.
>>102404702Yes. You realize that HDD average 150MB/s right? And that's only a single disk.
>>102404713I was thinking CPU would be a bigger bottleneck. Do drives matter? For example a WD Red or WD Purple.
>>102404737Drives does matter. SATA1 is slow as fuck. 52k RPM is slow as fuck. As long as your HDD is made in the last 5-10 years you should be good in speed. I can assure you CPU does not matter. Your 5600G is 12 cores 3.9GHz. I currently use E5-1620v4, 8 cores and 3.5GHz.I'm assuming you have high CPU usage because you're using Windows and trying to do everything in it.
>>102404790No, I have a qnap NAS that I got for free. It has a shitty arm processor that can't handle more than 20 MB/s write. I'll switch to a 5600G system for that and some other small stuff as well. Thank you for your help anon.

I want to run a Mini PC as a media server, VPN gateway, and with a pfSense VM. I already have a tower server for bulk storage, but I want to have it sleep for most of the day and night because it's only used in the evening.How big of a difference is there between a Jasper Lake N6000 and an Alder Lake N100 in terms of power consumption and transcoding performance? I know N100 Minis are popular to use as low-power servers but I don't have any spare SODIMM DDR5. Are the benefits of Alder Lake really that great compared to the previous generation Pentium/Celeron processors?
>>102406468In terms of power consumption, they're practically the same. They're within 5% of each other.As for transcoding, the N100 is better, way better. But the N6000 is still good. As in, good enough for maybe 2 streams and you could probably push 3. The N100 can easily do 3-4 streams.

I have one 12TB and four 14TB HDDs. What OS will allow me to optimize for storage capacity with different drive sizes while having decent redundancy? Unraid seems like the answer, but I'd rather not shell out more shekals if I don't have to.I'll be virtualizing the OS on Workstation through windows if that changes anything.
>>102409639>I returned the ones I bought and went for lenovo tinies insteadWell that's annoying. It looks like a Tiny will be at least twice as expensive and require a separate proprietary pcie riser. Maybe I'll just a grab a cheap 2.5G card and slap it in the 5070 for now, and save the 10G network upgrade for later when there's better/cheaper hardware for it.Thanks for the info anon.
>>102409961>What OS will allow me to optimize for storage capacity with different drive sizes while having decent redundancy?Any Linux if you know what you're doing, otherwise unRAID>I'll be virtualizing the OS on Workstation through windows if that changes anything.Shame on you. In all seriousness though I hope your Windows has the Hyper-V role and you're not just running some VirtualBox or VMware Workstation shit-tier hypervisor
>>102409961>What OS will allow me to optimize for storage capacity with different drive sizes while having decent redundancy?Every Linux distro has the same filesystems available, so you can use any distro to do what you need. But if you're coming from Windows then you're probably going to need the retard-friendly NAS-specific GUI in Unraid.

>>102410799Literally nothing wrong with n100
>>102406967That's not even the cause of issue for I226-V, the issue is caused by EEE being enabled on older firmware, on both the NIC and the connected switch. Newer firmware disables EEE by default.Still a cope post, because N100 are not servers and have very little or none in common with server hardware for manageability or reliability.
>>102409380OEM validation with server operating systems, and support with industry partners when their product doesn't work as intended.Sometimes longer support and sales life than desktop equivalents.Not all server CPUs even fit two of your criteria.

btrfs is good actually and I like it
You enterprise niggers don't belong here. Literally the first link in /hsg/ is the wiki. And guess what, even the wiki recommends consumer grade gear. Go open the wiki, the first topic is literally about hardware. It recommends Rasberry Pi and NUCs. Yeah, it says you can't scale them up but if I just need a machine that runs Plex and I don't care about scaling it up? NUCs work for me.And would you look at that, it even says to repurpose old hardware, like an old gaming PC (which probably has no ECC or even using the i-226-V NICs you niggers are so scared about), or an old workstation, or even a laptop.There's even more! The Build Your Own section shows non-ECC memory in the example build, and a consumer CPU.And don't get me started on the separate page for server cases. 99% of the things listed there are consumer cases and hard;y and server rack chassis.Let's go down the list some more. Oh, there's something about Networking. It says it's okay to use Asus for a router. Fucking Asus.What about software though?Open Media Vault, unRAID, these aren't enterprise software. Why is that there? mergerfs? snapraid? Those aren't used in big data centers.My point is the wiki literally says not to stick to only enterprise hardware. And tell you what, remove the wiki next time from the OP and I'll concede.
>>102410584Can anyone else chime in, is Hyper-V actually better than workstation/Proxmox or is this just one autistic fan?
>>102411772Nice
>>102411822it depends on your application.if you are in a windows environment and rely on microsoft services such as active directory and its integrations then yeah hyper-v is fucking greatfor every other application id use proxmox or unraid depending on your experience level. hyper-v isnt bad but its fits into the really well into the microsoft ecosystem but not that well with others.
>>102411816its only one fat trolling faggot that gets a raise out of the attentionother generals have worse schizos
>>102411772Nice. I started with a P510 ThinkStation a couple weeks ago. It's been great learning about server stuff and how I can apply what I learned to my main PC.Like for example, since I had to keep reinstalling different OS I realized how good it was to keep your boot drive separate from your storage drives. Recently bought a 2nd NVMe for my main machine and did a fresh install of Windows there and made my bigger NVMe as my storage drive.
Do you guys know anything about archiving? I'm working on archiving Google Arts and Culture. I've been going by Art Movement but I've run into a problem where it seems that you can't get more than 5000 images from a category.The api is of course undocumented but basically it's a chain of requests where each request contains the id for the next request, but it seems that you can only get 5000 images this way, despite the category containing more than that according to their site.Also, it's very strange, usually a request returns 15 images, but sometimes it is more and sometimes less.Anyone have ideas?
>>102412001Google does everything they can to try and stop you from getting their data. They want to be the first and only source.
Any sugestions on how define my lab infra as code? I'd like to have it be mostly in Terraform, abut the proxmox terraform providers seem to suck ass. I'm also mostly using LXC's because my host is a thinkcentre tiny with 8Gb of RAM so I'm trying to avoid the overhead of VM's.
Will be bringing back my chink, shit-tier mini pc as a Proxmox node today as I wasn't doing anyting in its previous role.Some things I've thought:>Add another pfSense for HA (specially when servicing the main node)>Torrenting (move)>Proxy (move)>IRC & XMPP (move)>MySQL (move)>Setup kubernetes pods for HA of my bots"Move" means that I have those services running on main node.Aaaaaaa there's some much stuff that can be done yet so little time
>>102412098bpg's provider for Proxmox VE (still bad), a Kubernetes / OpenShift cluster to use with Terraform, or switching to VMware vSphere (vCenter) for its official Terraform provider. I chose the latter personally, when I had the same issue.>thinkcentre tiny>8Gb of RAM>I'm trying to avoid the overhead of VM's.That's a big constrained (You) problem and that's not a server. You can solve this by purchasing a proper server.Avoid running containers on the host, no security isolation and no live migration.This architecture and hardware sucks.
Yo enterpriseschizo, suggest some hypervisor /OS/whatever that plays nice with Terraform that isn't VMware/vSphere. Otherwise suggest an alternative to Terraform that plays nice with non-enterprise OS/hypervisorsThanks in advance

I realized that having a huge 12 bays NAS is just a waste of power, centralizes my data way too much, too loud and requires me to cool down the room in summer.For this reason I want to try to switch to smaller and more spammable solutions, the idea is to have multiple smaller and less power hungry machines with at most a 4 disks RAID each, keep my data I care little about on a single one and keep the important data synced between 2 ore 3 machines.Has anyone done that?
If I have 2 NICs for a proxmox machine, is it better to bond them (and keeping one disconnected as a backup) and do vlans for management/vms or to use one nic for the management and one nic for the vms?
>>102412447Have you tried turning the disks off when not in use?
>>102412001>>102412028Well I figured out that if you organize by color it returns smaller groups, so I might be able to get it all this way.
What should I use for identity and access management?
yeah this place is pretty quiet, but there is a homeserver anon living next door so it can get a bit noisy when his enterprise sized nas cluster spins up every 60 minutes
>>102412447I tried doing this but unfortunately lower power devices only allow 2.5" drives and those are 4/8TB max. My approach was to get a single not-so-power-hungry box with 4 big drives.Which consists of 5700G + 4x20TB drives>>102412457Depends entirely on your usecase. From my experience bonding is useful only if:>You have a lot of clients that make use of the network a lot>You require high availabilityIf your infrastructure requires proper separation of duties then it makes sense to dedicate a NIC for management.>>102412527LDAP if on Linux/UnixActive Directory if on Windows

>>102412527Entra ID, P1 or better. Because of FIDO2 and MFA.Like sure, AD can be setup on-prem with smart cards and PIV, but it's much more of a chore to setup and maintain.It's just a thing that with Windows 11, everything's being tied to Microsoft or Azure one way or the other.You also won't need an SCCM license, when Intune is best bundled with Entra ID, and over 3-5 years Intune will be still cheaper than SCCM for 1 user.

>>1024125478 TB max sounds good to me, that's what I have on my 12 bay anyway, if I can spam them in quantity I'll have my needs covered, I want my data to be spread among many devices for fault tolerance rather than have everything in a giant raid, plus differentiate between low priority and high priority data, I don't care as much if I lose half my PLEX collection
>>102412686Prepare to spend a bit thohttps://www.amazon.com/SAMSUNG-870-QVO-SATA-MZ-77Q8T0B/dp/B089C3TZL9And QVO's are not the most resilient drives of them all.
>>102412547>Depends entirely on...It's just home lab use. My reasoning was if I bond them and keep one disconnected, I don't have to configure the other one again in case I lose access.My goal is simple management and VM separation.
"Enterpriseschizo" is not a personality and the meme has gotten stale.Maybe you can start shilling cloud services or something for a change?
>>102412721I don't really need SSD though, I'd rather go with spinning drives, that's what's on my current setup anyway, while I do have 10Gb fiber running in my house I haven't had the need to go past the 800Mb or something the current setup is giving me
>>102412572you only have yourself to blame for not doing your research before buying (i9500t has active cooling and is at the upper price bracket)
>>102412572>>102412773A reminder for you two that Intel Xeon D processors/SOCs are purpose-built for networking, due to Intel QAT.Not that you should probably buy any of them anyway, and prefer the two big firewall OEM names with ASICs.
>>102412773ofcoursebut not in this form factor that fits in my pocket, i wanted it to be more slick
>>102412735>My reasoning was if I bond them and keep one disconnected, I don't have to configure the other one again in case I lose access.Makes sense, and a good learning experience, go for LACP if your switch is capable

>>102391432>Mosquitto - MQTT broker. IMO, works better than using web sockets to get messages.Link me your github, I still don't use any MQTT, largerly because I can just spin up anything with TCP sockets. But people with many IoT devices or sensors can profit from it. How many do you run?

I have a piece of shit 2.5" kicking around that has a Reported_Uncorrect of 1 from over 300 days of uptime ago, at 700 days in this case. No reallocated, no pending, no offline uncorrectable, etc. Should be fine for stuff I don't care about, right?
>>102411790why and what distro
>>102415155If you don't care about the data? Sure.I have a 2.5" 52k RPM laptop HDD I still use from 2009. It has 24 uncorrected sectors for the last 10 years. Hasn't given me a problem since.

Has anybody here ever used oauth2-proxy, and if so, what are your experiences with it? Leaning towards that as my authentication / authorization middleware between nginx and my identity manager. Looked at vouch-proxy as well, but apparently they don't follow the spec properly and that causes issues sometimes. They had an open pull request to fix the issue that is three years old...

>>102416326I've used vouch-proxy before and discourage anyone from using it. I haven't used oauth2-proxy but it looks promising although maybe a bit on the bloated side. What i did was write my own program that integrates well with haproxy, it was a fun exercise.
