Historically NFS and using one service per server was the usual process. “Builds on” means that the newer processes were developments and improvements to older processes. For example NFS was released in the 1980s and Docker in 2013. Obviously the efficiencies in docker and hyperconverged servers are the reason they have taken over most set ups, but it’s not obvious that software such as docker would have come into existence without the original networking processes.

…which is exactly my point. Using a VM or docker to run the relevant programs and using hard links rather than NFS shares is just a more complicated (but more efficient) setup that follows the same logic. It also has a more complicated network setup for VPN use than running a VPN client on an SBC. That’s why an SBC is the easiest way in to the lifestyle, before graduating to the more complicated yet more powerful setups.

A NAS, an SBC eg a raspberry pi, and NFS shares are the basic setup. Everything else essentially builds on this.

Don’t split up a bonded pair, it’s cruel. How would you like it if you got locked away from a life partner and could never see them again?

Dissertation title: the use of self hosted technological solutions for stress management in off duty nursing staff

Ie why torrenting media is the only way for poorly paid nurses is a sign of the breakdown in the social contract

Or, and this is one I’ve been thinking about, The use of patient data in health organisation owned AI systems and consent: What happens when children say no

Get a used adaptec arc 82885T which as an expander card. It only needs molex to power it, and it allows the HBA to connect to up to several hundred data drives (HBA to expander to HDD). The documentation is straightforward to understand.

An example: https://ebay.us/m/SYvAxO

Do not use a raid controller with Truenas. Use a HBA such as an LSI 9300 or 9207 (old but fine for HDD). Truemas manages the drive itself and any barrier to that (like device managed SMR drives and Rains controllers) means Truenas does not know where the data is, and you are likely to get data corruption at some point.

Ditto.

…it isn’t down for me…?

LiFePO4 batteries within the house are the correct resolution.

In winter the panels make nothing anyway, and in summer the houses will essentially run themselves for somewhere between 4 to 8 months depending on peak power usage and panel array size.

Essentially it removes residential baseload and flattens the duck curve so the peak 1600 to 1900 peak can disappear, with the obvious knock on effect of reducing the LCOE.

Truenas Scale NAS server, just add the storage.

Thanks!

Ok, stupid question from a stupid person: if I have a phone connected to a local WiFi network, and I type in the URL of a subdomain which points make to that same network ie a hosted service on a home server, what route does the data take from the service back to my phone?

Alternative option: Truenas Scale. Supermicro motherboard. AMD Epyc (used) for lots of PCIE lanes. LSI 9300 and AEC 82885 expander. 16TB+ drives. Rack mount, with SAS back planea. RaidZ2 minimum. Special vdev, NVMe drives and dedicated apps and VM storage, don’t be afraid of a converged solution.

And fans. Lots of fans.

Pretty sure truenas scale can host everything you want so you might only want one server. Use Epyc for the pcie lanes, and a fractal design r7 XL and you could even escape needing a rack mount if you wanted. Use a pcie to m.2 adapter and you could easily host apps on them on a mirrored pool and use a special vdev to speed up the HDD storage pool

The role of the proxmox server would essentially be filled by apps and/or VM you could turn on or off as needed.

Have you got a recent copy of the configuration file?

I’ve used expressvpn on an Asus router, using fusion to split different ip addresses onto different vans and its been sound, no issues. So much easier than I was expecting.

I’m not the best person to explain the how or why but they are looking at Q3 for beta and Q4 for main release.

I’m running Immich, Nextcloud and Jellyfin on TNS and it’s fine. Nextcloud takes a bit of work though.
