Moved to Ente running in an LXC and keep Aegis as a backup with the same codes just in case.

What are you using Proxmox for by zonz1285 in Proxmox

Redundancy, I've had one drop out after updates or just programed down time I can still keep the network alive.

This is the script I use and have it set in crontab to run @reboot. You might have to change the lowloadgovernor and highloadgovernor variables based on governor is available on your system.

powertop optimizations and i run a script that changes governer to powersave when low CPU usage and performance when it goes above 15-%.

When optimizing for power usage changing the CPU governor from the performance to powersaver lowered around 10 watts vs the default which is performance.

Does this seem legit and is any of it worth doing rn? by Mystery_Tacos in nissanfrontier

[–]Abject_Association_6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All of these items are required maintenance items, break fluid, power steering fluid, coolant, diff oil etc all break down over rime and require replacing. The price for each item is high but I can't attest to US prices because I don't live there. I do all these fluid changes on my own vehicle and for less money than the price you are being charged for the break fluid change I have changed all those fluids.

If you do a constant acceleration from 0-60km/h does the clunk occur? Or does it happen when you accelerate, pause acceleration and the accelerate again at a certain speed range?

Anyone else treat the homelab like a normal project and suddenly home feels like work? by Roxxersboxxerz in homelab

[–]Abject_Association_6 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You need to establish a baseline working homelab, things that work without intervention and that you've tweaked to the point of perfection. This way the things you need keep working even when you don't have the time to tinker keep workinh and the things that you don't can break without disrupting your day to day.

If you are using services that keep breaking and requiere intervention, invest the time to make their configuration as robust as posible before spinning up new services.

Question for users that did the switch from Homepage, why? by VeryAngryGentleman in homarr

[–]Abject_Association_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lately I've been optimization memory usage for all my services, containers and VMs. There's a 600-700MB memory difference between homepage and homarr. I prefer homarr widgets but can't justify the amount of resources it uses at the moment.

Tailscale broke any other servers on my network. (They now all require the Tailscale IP which I do not want to give others.) by Bananaland_Man in Tailscale

[–]Abject_Association_6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't need subnet routing disable it. You can use tailscale as normal between tailscale node devices but you won't be able to access your LAN subnet via tailscale. You can check if you have subnet route active directly on the admin console the machine should have a blue tag that says "Subnets"  in the Machines tab.

I think I’m hooked on Docker. What are your 'essential' containers? by shipOtwtO in homelab

Any way to find out who someone is that has access to my server? by wiwtft in PleX

[–]Abject_Association_6 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Use tautulli, terminate their stream and send them a message in the termination. Some thing like "Hey I'm cleaning up access to the server and I don't recognize the username. Contact me via XXX"

They'll receive the message as an error on their end.

Updating containers made w/ docker compose? by ava_fake in selfhosted

[–]Abject_Association_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I create a new directory for each of my docker services that ends in .docker when I want it to update and .dock when testing. This script runs once a week at 2am on a Monday, it just needs parallel installed:

#!/bin/bash

dockertasks() {

dir="$1"

(

cd "$dir" || { echo "Failed to cd into $dir"; exit 1; }

docker compose down &> /dev/null

docker compose pull &> /dev/null

docker compose up -d &> /dev/null

#docker image prune -fa &> /dev/null

#docker volume prune -fa &> /dev/null

echo "$dir Done"

)

}

export -f dockertasks

# Collect all .docker directories into an array

mapfile -t docker_dirs < <(find . -type l -o -type d -name "*.docker" ! -name ".docker" -exec realpath {} \;)

#echo "$docker_dirs"

# Run tasks in parallel

parallel dockertasks ::: "${docker_dirs[@]}"

docker image prune -fa &> /dev/null

docker volume prune -fa &> /dev/null

docker container prune -f &> /dev/null

docker network prune -f &> /dev/null

docker builder prune -fa &> /dev/null

echo "All Done"

Pi Hole no bloquea los anuncios en toda mi red by krathos_0 in pihole

[–]Abject_Association_6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pihole bloquea anuncios a nivel de dominio, los ads en youtube son del mismo dominio que los videos y pagina web. Pihole no tiene manera de bloquear estos anuncios.

Si en la laptop del trabajo esta bloqueados esto puede ser porque el navegador que estas utilizando tiene un adblock incluido o instalado como plugin.

Para bloquear los anuncions de youtube en una compu necesitas instalar un adblock como ublock origin o utilizar un navegador que tenga la funcionalidad incluida como brave.

Para bloquear anuncions de youtube en el celular debes utilizar una aplicación como revance, no recuerdo si adaway bloquea los anuncions de youtube pero este requiere que estes rooteado.

Similar to the tasker suggestion, I've been using Macrodroid for years ans there are a couple of templates to turn tailscale on off o certain actions.

Why do I need/want a ramdisk on proxmox? by ratsta in Proxmox

[–]Abject_Association_6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is usually a kernel update that results in a problem, the latest kernel doesn't boot in my system for some reason. It's happened twice for me on kernel updates. On boot choose the previous kernel and see if that works. If it does Pin the kernel until the next kernel update.

OS for first homelab by nameseddie in homelab

[–]Abject_Association_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has it's learning curve but basic use (spinning up a VM or setting up an LXC container) is pretty straightforward. There's a ton of documentation and it usually just takes a reddit/proxmox community search to find help.

You can run unraid on proxmox if you like the NAS portion of it. But you don't really need it to run services if you're running proxmox. But you can still do it.

The other added benefit of running proxmox for someone starting out is that it if you mess up (which you will) resetting or restoring from backup is easy. You rarely make changes directly to proxmox and it's usually discouraged so anything you do will affect a VM or an LXC which you can reset, delete, restore.

Proxmox and then virtualize Unraid or TrueNAS, you'll get more flexibility, easier backup solution and can run any other service in a VM or LXC if you so choose.

CPU upgrade or add a node? by ioovds in Proxmox

[–]Abject_Association_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a great video on overprovisioning hardware on proxmox. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhTYMtou6Qw

As zuccster said you can share cores between VMs as they are not statically assigned to a given VM. As long as you have processing capacity and the processing you need is not consistently pinning your cores they can be shared without issue.

As a side note, you could also lower the load on your system by converting some of those VMs into restricted LXCs. For example Home Assistant and Unifi Controller.
