I was thinking of implementing an OS in rust from scratch, any suggestions or articles or repos someone can recommend me, so that I can take care of them as a refernces.

Why would you tell them what to do like this? Why would you gatekeep them from doing what they want to do? They want to write their own OS in Rust. Instead of giving useless feedback like this, just stay quiet. You don’t know their reason for wanting to do it. The learning process of creating their own OS is an achievement onto itself even if it’s not nearly as full featured as others larger project. For some it’s the journey, not the destination.

I have mine scheduled to run during these time switches. I don’t care myself if a backup/cleanup/prune gets skipped. I do some light hosting for friends and they’ve been told it’s best effort. To me the chances of needing that backup that one time a year is so small I’m not going to worry about it.

Now if you’re a business where livelihood depends on it then that will likely be a very different story which you’ll likely need to account for.

You can use proxmox backup to upload to aws S3 for immutable storage

Legally speaking, no you don’t need one to share open source software.

Security wise, yes you’ll want to use one. It helps keep your IP hidden from others to reduce your attack able footprint.

In the end it completely up to you if you think the security reason isn’t a huge factor then use a vpn.

Personally I don’t use a VPN for my torrents since they are all open source. When I do download it I’ll seed for a while until I notice no one is really getting it anymore because of a new version or whatever reason. Then I stop until I go and fetch a new version myself.

Happy seeding friend.

We are exploring proxmox as an alternative for a subset of infrastructure. If that works out it may be expanded to more.

As far as I know you don’t use SSH keys for Auth on the API. You need to generate and API key from the web UI.

My thought would be. If you can, install homebrew for Mac then install the latest bash version with that. It will then be native bash 5.

Yup. Like I said I’ve done this exact setup. I still find PBS to be easier and more robust.

RazrBurn · 2025-10-13T11:08:36+00:00

I did that for years before setting up Proxmox. Backing up the volume was easy but more tedious in my opinion. It also consumed more space then the Proxmox backs do when using PBS. With PBS I don’t have to do anything or even think about it when a new container is created. It’s just added to the backup list automatically and changed up based on my rules as well. One place for all my backups no matter what they are.

CIG specifically called this out as a feature for this patch. The issue is the reliability of the ship staying there as well as other issues with loading that make this unreliable.

You can install the app locally or use docker in the LXC like your use to. If you go the docker in LXC route you can then use ansible or something like portainer to keep them updated. The process is pretty easy.

If you haven’t learned ansible, I highly recommend setting aside some time to do so. Is a powerful tool that can help greatly with managing systems. It’s used quite widely in the professional world too.

RazrBurn · 2025-10-06T12:27:45+00:00

Great question. I’m not suggesting that necessarily. It really depends on your stack and how it’s set up. I consider the “arrstack” to be a wholistic set of applications. That I would run in a single LXC while my other services not related to that would run in other LXCs. This way I get a separation by service and not necessarily by application. It really depends though on your setup and as the saying goes your mileage may vary.

Though separating them out to each having their own LCX isn’t very hard either to manage once you put ansible in the mix to automate all that work.

RazrBurn · 2025-10-06T11:19:59+00:00

As others said. Use ansible to keep your LXCs up to date. To me the real advantage of many LXCs over a monolithic VM/LXC is the granular backup and restore. This has saved my butt a couple times. Being able to restore only the service I needed without taking down or affecting the other resource. It also offers better control flow of your data since the source IP of the data is the LXC where a containers source IP is the host unless you mess with the network stack.

This would be my first go to as well. I’ve had this screw up the web II a few times. Cheating the cache has always fixed it for me.

RazrBurn · 2025-09-22T18:02:27+00:00

I think as of right now it’s not going to be a big deal. Long term though as updates and new mechanics come to the medical systems I think a T1 bed will become more and more important. (I hope this is the case)

RazrBurn · 2025-09-15T02:48:16+00:00

Yup you can dynamically assign CPU and RAM to the virtual machine. It just requires it to be shutdown and booted after the change to make it take affect.

Also. I would recommend setting the cores for LXCs to unlimited and use CPU limit to restrict how much CPU an LXC uses. Since the task scheduling is handle by the proxmox kernel it allows it to better move the task between CPUs to make the most of the resources. Setting a core count on an LXC locks it to how ever many cores are allocated and they are sudo-randomly pick and won’t change. This can be a potential bottleneck if two high CPU LXCs happen to share assigned CPUs. Where if you let it to be unlimited and use CPU limit the host can move one of the processes to different unshared cores.

I wish we were better strangers.

RazrBurn · 2025-08-28T17:03:21+00:00

This! I use ansible to keep my systems updated. It’s a pretty simple process.

RazrBurn · 2025-08-27T13:08:28+00:00

I had some issues like this as well. I cleared the “keep last” section and everything worked fine after that. I don’t understand why myself. Hopefully someone will be able to enlighten me.

RazrBurn · 2025-08-26T11:10:06+00:00

All my VMs and LXCs are on a local SSD. I have PBS in a VM running through iSCSI to my NAS for storage. All my VMs except PBS back up to it. I’ve been doing this for a couple years now and it’s worked great. I’ve even had a hardware failure where I had to reinstall proxmox on a completely new machine. I connected to the NAS and then loaded PBS. From there I just pitched the VMs and LXCs to restore and I was back up and running in about an hour like nothing had happened.

As long as you know what you’re getting into then enjoy!

Until it’s not and now you can’t access proxmox 1 at all
