We had those bullshit apps on PC before Android was a glimmer in its Mama’s eye. Why is Microsoft pushing that crapware?

Weird I still see the comment. I wouldn’t even know it was deleted if you hadn’t said something.

Looks like wireguard encrypts traffic to me.

No but less power hungry than a full desktop. It’s a good trade-off between power and performance.

If you want the small footprint and power costs are a concern, look for a second hand mini computer. Dell, Lenovo, Intel nuc.

Something like this as an example.

I just wanted to say I loved your analogy.

Then you didn’t understand how the system uses swap.

I’ve been happily running Open Media Vault in a Proxmox VM for some time now.

I didn’t pass any phy disks through, if that’s what you mean. I’m using that system for more than OMV. I created disks for the VM like I would any other VM.

I think that’s illegal in some places, like California and the EU.

Nextcloud AIO in docker is dead simple and has been reliable for me.

The sync client is capable of syncing the whole tree as remote pointers that didn’t take space until you access the file then it downloads it local. You can also set files to always be local.

I’m using CheckMk for pretty much all of that. Personally I found zabbix to have too much overhead.

Media should exist in its own with a tuned record size of 1mb

Should the vm storage block size also be set to 1MB or just the ZFS record size?

Thanks I may give it a try if I’m feeling daring.

SeeJayEmm, 25 days ago

I’m referring to this.

… using grub to directly boot from ZFS - such setups are in general not safe to run zpool upgrade on!

<span style="color:#323232;">$ sudo proxmox-boot-tool status
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Re-executing '/usr/sbin/proxmox-boot-tool' in new private mount namespace..
</span><span style="color:#323232;">System currently booted with legacy bios
</span><span style="color:#323232;">8357-FBD5 is configured with: grub (versions: 6.5.11-7-pve, 6.5.13-5-pve, 6.8.4-2-pve)
</span>

Unless I’m misunderstanding the guidance.

That cheat sheet is getting bookmarked. Thanks.

Thanks for all the info. I’ll keep this in mind if I replace the drive. I am using refurb enterprise HDDs in my main server. Didn’t think I’d need to go enterprise grade for this box but you make a lot of sense.

SeeJayEmm, 26 days ago

This was really interesting, thanks for the info.

SeeJayEmm, 25 days ago

I’ve done a bit of research on that and I believe upgrading the zpool would make my system unbootable.

Proxmox is using ZFS. Opnsense is using UFS. Regarding the record size I assume you’re referring to the same thing this comment is?

You can always find some settings in your opnsense vm to migrate log files to tmpfs which places them in memory.

I’ll look into this.

SeeJayEmm, 26 days ago

I may end up having to go that route. I’m no expert but aren’t you supposed to use different parameters when using SSDs on ZFS vs an HDD?

Not really. They need FF to exist to avert monopoly accusations.
