READ THE (temp)WIKI! & help by contributing:
https://igwiki.lyci.de/wiki/Home_server

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

Does Jellyfin have a native YouTube player/plugin?

I got Kodi LibreElec and it runs like a cheapo hotel IPTV system that feels awful to use.
To use the YouTube plugin I had to jump through hoops and hurdles to obtain Google APIs just to get it to work, and when it did, it still has the horrible Kodi UI that just can't get fixed even with trying out several different themes.
Moreover I realized that Kodi's community is mostly centered around pirating TV streams (Debrid) which to be very honest wasn't what I had in mind nor am I interested in.
My use cases are:
>streaming torrented movies/series that are saved on a Synology NAS
>watching YouTube videos
Basically the standard fare of a regular smart TV.

It's running on a Raspberry Pi 3B+, so I'm considering switching out the microSD for one with Jellyfin, but need some clarity on the above before wasting any time on the wrong pursuit.

What are my options for a WiFi 7 access point that can get decent speeds through a thick wall or 2?
I already a diy wired opnsense router. I would like to connect a good ap with good coverage to it, but looking at Ubiquity hardware the situation is kind of retarded. The U7-Pro-Max costs as much as a Dream Router 7 while being worse from what I've seen on the internet (when it comes with WiFi performance). Now, if I buy a dream router 7, the damn thing can't run in ap mode, so I would have to replace my opnsense router entirely with this dream router and have it run my network, which makes me feel retarded cause i just bought and setup this box with opnsense.
I'm not sure about other brands. Anything that gets wifi right and can run just as an AP?
I'm looking for like >100 Mbps through a thick wall as i said.
>>
>>107762323
You don't need the pro-max. Just get one of their cheaper APs and return it if for some reason you don't get the speed you want.
>>
>>107762336
So what am I supposed to? Buy more and more expensive access points and return them until I get one I'm ok with?
>>
>>107762430
NTA but yes. buy a U7 pro (and a poe injector if needed)
dont like it? return it for free.
>>
>>107762430
what are you actually expecting? the preferred solution would be to jump the wall with a wire and put an AP on the other side. you're shopping for wifi7 gear, but what is that supposed to accomplish? 6ghz is going to penetrate less than 2.4ghz and MLO isn't well supported. You are asking for 100Mbps, but 2.4ghz can do that already.

How does /hsg/ feel about microtik switches for simple tasks - i.e. not bridge or routing mode? I know they have weak processors but I just want to upgrade my lan from 10g to 25g; nothing fancy like vlans or anything of that nature. Thinking about a CRS510-8XS-2XQ-IN - I have 3 nodes with 2x port 25g nics among several 1g-10g devices, and would like the ability to replace those nics with 100g ones at one point in the future.

Pretty bold of you to assume there aren't people in this thread with more wasteful projects.
But in all seriousness I pretty regularly rebuild VMs, zpools and entire storage setups to try new things. Electricity is also real cheap here. Got a nice job an everything.
Any thoughts on the switch itself? I know the CRS504 is cheaper but I only have nics with 25g ports and don't want to buy breakout cables at this time.
>>
>>107762621
>and would like the ability to replace those nics with 100g ones at one point in the future.
Forget the CRS510 get the CRS520-4XS-16XQ-RM. Costs double to triple at most and comes with eight times the 100G ports.

I have a single 10tb drive, and a 5tb portable hard drive I'd use for backups of a portion of the main drive.

I have zero experience with non-ext4 filesystems but I think snapshots and corruption detection might be useful. Is a single-disk ZFS pool fine and doable? Otherwise I was just thinking of rsyncing whatever I wanted in the main drive into the portable.

>CRS520-4XS-16XQ-RM
I should rephrase - I can't imagine a future where I would want more than the 3 specified nodes on anything crazier than 100g, and that would be very long term. Going from 10g to 25 or 50 is the craziest thing I need. For my limited use case I couldn't justify this switch, and it's much more expensive than what I would want to spend for my purposes. But I do appreciate the advice, thank you.

I want the 6Ghz mostly for room A. But I also really want to hit >100 Mbps (and I mean that consistently, 100Mbps be like the minimum) in room C (kind of at the opposite corner; where the client is on the drawing)
I'm considering getting a repeater in room C, but no point to it if the signal barely gets to it in room C. Can't really get a wire from room A to C.
For size: the distance in a straight line between the ap and the client is like 8-9 meters (26-30 feet in freedom units). The distance between ap and the thick wall is like 1.5-2 meters (5-6 feet)

I'm new to this

If I need to buy cables, can I just buy whatever LAN/ethernet cable says it's rated for the speeds I want?

Can I just buy any cable that says 2.5gbps?
>>
>>107763234
Generally, yeah. That said, given the low price and high availability of cat6(10Gb cable) you might be better off buying that instead and saving yourself more time/money/e-waste in infrastructure upgrades if/when you decide you need 10g connectivity in the future.
>>
>>107763234
I'm guessing you have 1 gigabit ethernet like most people. Ethernet cables nowadays go way past that, to like 10 or so, so yeah, buying a 2.5gbps is fine as long as it's slightly above what your internet plan is. Your devices have a limit on its ethernet speed too.

>>107763234
When it comes to cables you should consider categories (Cat X). Check the table. It's more of guideline as I've heard of people doing over 1Gbps on cat 5e, but yeah generally you should pick the proper cable for the job.
Everything above cat 6A it's a meme and it shouldn't be taken seriously. Cat 7 is a meme entirely and should be skipped. Cat 8 might be for some really niche use cases, but it's best to avoid it at least for now considering most of the scams you see on the net are actually not cat 8, they just lie they are and you end up with some cat 5 cable. Also consider that generally those cables get thicker with each generation so if thickness is an aspect that you care about be mindful of that.
You want to do over 10Gbps? You want to do 10 Gbps over 100 meters?
Use fiber with sfp+ port.
If the distance is really short (1 meter or less) use a dac copper cable.

rebuilding VMs and zpools are all local actions that take place on the backplane you fucking retard. the only time those actions touch the network is pushing an iso or ovf/ova which you can do over 1g for a minute or so extra time. let's say your "storage setup" rebuilds are clustered just to give you the benefit of the doubt. can your storage array push 100g? can it push 25g even?

a fool and his money as they say. why not just expand your infrastructure to get to the point where it can even utilize a 100g pipe to begin with. this is cart before the horse.

>do you currently have an AP in room A in that location? if so, what is the client in room C seeing for wireless?

Very mixed/inconclusive results. If I connect to wifi while facing the ap direction (supposing I'm in the lower half of room C, the half closer to the ap) i get over 100Mbps, sometimes even over 200 on download. But I connect and run the test with my back to it or even taking a few steps back can drop the tests to ~30Mbps and barely 5-6Mbps upload, a few times it even failed the test on upload.
The ap is one of those pieces of shit Deco X60 mesh things and the client is some android phone that supports ac WiFi. What I think is happening at some point in that room C the ap thinks I'm too far away and switches my client from 5Ghz to the 2.4Ghz band and that just tanks the speeds.

buy a gl.inet flint 2 or one of their travel routers, preferably one that can run openwrt. configure it in room c (or maybe b) as a client or repeater so that one radio talks to room a and one radio is for clients sitting in room c. sit and do testing until you find the optimal location for the fastest backhaul speeds between c and a.

>rebuilding VMs and zpools are all local actions that take place on the backplane you fucking retard. the only time those actions touch the network is pushing an iso or ovf/ova which you can do over 1g for a minute or so extra time.
No anon, I'm referring to repopulating pools and entire systems/backups with several terabytes of data multiple times over the lan. If I was unclear about that I apologize.
>let's say your "storage setup" rebuilds are clustered just to give you the benefit of the doubt. can your storage array push 100g?
No, but I plan to expand to utilize this capability in the intermediate to distant future
>can it push 25g even?
Yeah man, I have nvme storage devices on all 3 devices, never-mind the zpools, one of which is built out of 8 sata ssds, it reads and writes well in excess of 3GB a second. Only my HDD pools don't saturate my 10G lan, and even those can utilize well above 75% of network availability.
>a fool and his money as they say. why not just expand your infrastructure to get to the point where it can even utilize a 100g pipe to begin with. this is cart before the horse.
I 100% agree with the spirit of everything you're saying, and I appreciate your concern, but you're half correct. No immediate plans for 100g, but my motherboards have the available pcie lanes and generational support to handle such nics, and as is common with retards like me I'm getting tired of incremental switch upgrades.
Thus, I would like something that can not only support 1, possibly 2 sfp28 connections per node, but the ability in the far future to not necessitate replacing/upgrading should I ever decide to upgrade to 100g.

then that switch you originally suggested is probably fine. but, i would place it as a backend storage switch instead of putting it upstream to use as a general agg switch on the network. your individual devices wouldn't make use of a 25g pipe. but, according to you, your storage nodes theoretically could in the future.

Jellyfin is a server program focused around streaming media from your own storage. It has no connection to YouTube, I think you're confused and don't really know what these things are or do. Plex is the same but proprietary and with locked features behind payment.

there are no good resources for small medium, you have to adapt what you learn from the general concepts of networking and scale it to suit your needs.

as far as switching is concerned, in a homelab scenario, there are extra considerations for your purchase. size, heat, power, noise, features, and user interface. so it's hard to give a ranking because my preference is based on what works at work not what works for home. you can not successfully meet all of the home criteria, it is impossible. you rob peter to pay paul. for 25g and up specifically you can not buy a good switch for home without making some serious sacrifices. that said, go mikrotik.

if i were to do a tier list of switches it would have to be by usecase so you'd have five or so different lists. best core, agg, access, spine/leaf, multirole.

Does anyone know with netapp ds424x (and other rebranded zyratex shelves like from dell and oracle) need to have their back planes swapped to be able to use faster iom modules? For example a 4243 shipped with sas1 3gb modules, does it have to be upgraded with a back plane from a 4246 that would have shipped with sas2 and later 3? Only asking because I know some supermicros are like this.

few day later, ran the test again.
I cleaned all end before with a pen style cleaner.
Is this to be expected with a visual faul finder?
I plan on running my gpon connection over one of these.
This line has two more keystones on the other ends and these do not show nearly that much reflexion.

I got into homelabbing just to set up a media server but with time things have gotten out of hand and now I have a 400 lines long docker-compose and dozens of different .env files.
Right now I just backup everything with restic, but is there a better way to manage the compose and the settings "as code", including the additional users and folder permissions/masks?
>>
>>107770885
Learn how to split up compose files.
Use Ansible for configuration management.
Try using services then lend themselves better to IaC.

Yes. It's extremely simple to this with Ansible.
If you want to be even more autistic you can define the entire OS as code with NixOS.

>>
>>107771381
well I just went for the dell because i saw a good local deal
I saw a guy on yt take the Lenovo, remove the fan and make a new lid to fit the fan, no modding of the heatsink
so I think I'll make a hole in mine and slap a 140mm fan and a dust filter on it
>>
>>107771482
I don't think the fan is proprietary though.
Is it just the noise or bad temps?
Maybe switch to noctua fan?

I'm trying to see if IPv6 is working for me (Wireguard use case). If I can do
netcat -6 -l -p 6969 -W 1 && echo "somethingsomething"

and in another terminal I do
echo asd | ns xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx 6969

and then the ping gets routed back around and netcat receives the asd and terminates, does that mean everything should be working correctly? With IPv4 this would mean the port is opened correctly but port testers like https://port.tools/port-checker-ipv6/ report either that the port is closed or that "We can NOT see your service on [my IPv6] on port (6969)" .
I cannot login into my router because the ISP went through a merger since the router was installed and the new slow-as-fuck interface doesn't accept the password on the router's sticker.
I need to host a Wireguard gateway on my machine, but since port forwarding is not an option currently I hoped IPv6 would work. Is it actually working now or will I need to call the ISP's support?

the fan is one of these little shits the case can't fit a normal fan

I was expecting SC connectors for the GPON from your ISP.
That doesn't look likes broken fiber/cable, however it does look like quite a bit of loss.
The little LC connectors might not be aligning correctly in the keystone, does the light change if you move the cables around? Single mode often prefers shallower bends then you are showing on the back of the panel here.
Unless you really want to use the panel, maybe look into single "splice" box that accepts a female-female connector thing with ears. Those keep the connectors straight.

>Unless you really want to use the panel
thing is i have a 4x box on the start and end of the line with the same keystones and they both hardly show any glow, but with them the Fiber goes in straight and leaving straigt
>does the light change if you move the cables around?
i only checked the bottom one, it does change if i touch it. Also its the same without zip ties.
But you gave me an idea, im starting to suspect the strain relief pushes them out of alignment.
I will put a seperator between the fibers at the zip tie, widen the bottom radius a bit and put the second fiber keystone in position 5 so it enters straight

i will post again in a few days when it is no linger cold as shit

buffered and unbuffered are keyed differently you should have specified that in your listing
probably something to reiterate to your buyers if you're going to be selling more. the average new user isn't going to know.

Buddy I listed the part number along with memtest86 results, and with RDIMM PC4- blah blah blah in the description. I have a disclaimer to check for your motherboards QVL as I'm not responsible for tech support blah blah blah. I'm pretty sure that I have all the bases covered.

I even made sure to not include RAM or Memory in the title because I was exactly afraid of these types.

Anyways he's mad that Google shopping bought my results up first and apparently that's still my fault? Holy shit lol this is so funny.
>>
>>107777837
well you didn't mention in it in your post just now and that's the entire reason they don't fit

Nah I mentioned them both in title and description (post). I've been selling my gear on eBay for 11 years.

Im not so heartless that I don't want to leave this guy hanging but at the same time I dunno if he damaged them while installing it, or just feels robbed that ram prices went up and taking out his frustration at me. I've experienced everything from genuine mistakes to maliciously trying to fuck me over with swapped parts during returns. This is the first where Google algo fucked me over lol

What are your opinions on recordsize for a ZFS SSD mirror that will host Linux virtual machines? I'm torn between 16k, 32k, and 64. My gut says to do 16k, to reduce write amplification, but I'm wondering if that might have adverse affects on KVM/QEMU VMs.

Any opinions?
>>
>>107778076
>adverse affects on KVM/QEMU VMs
You're not running those VMs off zvols, right? I'm running my bhyve-hosted VMs on zvols and the performance is fucking awful.
I'm not really convinced running the VM disks off files in a ZFS filesystem would be much better. I'd recommend looking into LVM or something to run them off raw partitions (if that's a thing, I'm a retard not a Linux user).
>>
>>107778356
No, this would be raw img files on datasets. I tried zvols but they're too much work, and their volblocksize is not dynamic like datasets' recordsize is.

Active CCNP fag here who has done plenty of DWDM stuff. That light bleed is normal for the visual fault finder. Direction is correct, but I would take the loop out, that's too aggressive of a bend to make me happy.

>A YouTube player is my biggest requirement at the moment
I think the cheap walmart Onn Android TVs should work for that. Kodi has a plugin too.
Youtube is a massive pain in the ass to get working without an account and/or a browser. At one point selfhosting invidious was easier than wrangling youtube tv apps to work but my invidious instance hasn't worked in almost a year now. Now I just have a laptop connected to my tv with a bluetooth mouse and keyboard.
Plus, I can't use youtube without a million userscripts like ublock origin, sponsorblock, dearrow, shorts redirect, etc. I'm basically stuck with firefox browsers or jailbroken android apps.

Hi anon, nice setup.
Is that the Inter-tech 4U-4129L (https://www.inter-tech.de/productdetails-149/4U_4129L_EN.html)?

Tell him he didn't read the listing and check compatibility and that you'll refund him if he pays return shipping and didn't damage the RAM in the process of trying to install it

Otherwise, if its on ebay or something, dispute the negative feedback because the buyer is an idiot

Recently I've had fuckups with RAM on ebay, but the seller literally listed Cisco UDIMM DDR3 as Cisco UDIMM DDR4. Sure, the images showed DDR3 but the listing specifications said DDR4 so it came up in results for DDR4 so not my fault and I got a refund and got to keep it. No idea what to do with 128GB of DDR3 UDIMM though

You need to test from the internet, not from the same machine.
My guess is that the ISP router doesn't forward inbound traffic by default.

>What's the core issue you're having?
the light bleed only visible at this section freaked me out, that fiber run is almost 40 meter so i wanted to get reassurence it is not fucked before i need it next month.

spec says 30mm radius static, how much larger would you go to be happy? 50mm? 80mm?

My laptop only has a 1gbps ethernet/LAN port, and I want faster transfer speeds then that with my NAS

I know that people make USB LAN adapters, but I've only ever used them to get low latency wired connections for gaming consoles, can I use them to actually transfer files and connect my laptop to a NAS as well?

EX: I'd plug a 2.5gbps or a 10gbps ethernet/lan cable into the NAS, then plug that cable into a USB to LAN adapter, then plug that adapter into my laptop's USB port

ubiquiti cloud gateway ultra + its APs seem like the next logical step from my crappy ass netgear r6700v3 running on fumes with freshtomato, but something about ubiquiti seems glowy. Does anyone have opinions on it? Or should i go for a gl-inet router
>>
>>107784737
gl.inet, only models with openwrt support like the flint2.
>>
>>107784418
Sure, why not. Just make sure your laptop's USB ports are fast enough.
2.5 and maybe 5gpps is easily doable on any USB 3.2 port. 10gbps is weird. Older 10gpbs NICs require 40gbps USB4 to work properly. Newer (and cheaper) RTL 10gpbs NICs require 20gbps USB aka "USB 3.2 gen2x2" (I hate USB spec naming so much it's unreal). The "x2" part is very important here, regular "USB 3.2 gen2" is a 10gbps port which is not enough for 10gbps NICs.

I mean a 40 meter run in nothing. I have some 80km runs (without amps).

If it's in spec you're fine then, personally I wouldn't coil it like that at all, let it hang and you groom inside the cable management tray.
