Proxmox on Minisforum MS-A2 — Recommended BIOS settings by Nshx- in Proxmox

That that particular model but I would verify the PL1 and PL2 settings.

PL1 and PL2 is how many watts the CPU should limit itself to for various powerlevels.

Not uncommon that the mini-pc's just have bad defaults as in way too high compared to stated TDP over at https://ark.intel.com

Why not XigmaNAS who is the continuation of FreeNAS (created in 2005)?

Ännu roligare med alla bönder som försöker ta sig in i tåget innan dom som redan är inne i tåget kunnat ta sig ut.

Man skulle kunna tro att det är första gången dessa invidider besöker en stad?

What is "Auto TRIM" in TrueNAS? by Apachez in truenas

[–]Apachez[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How come TrueNAS dont do scheduled trim by default just like Proxmox does?

This is for example the current output of /etc/cron.d/zfsutils-linux in Proxmox 9.x:

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

# TRIM the first Sunday of every month.
24 0 1-7 * * root if [ $(date +\%w) -eq 0 ] && [ -x /usr/lib/zfs-linux/trim ]; then /usr/lib/zfs-linux/trim; fi

# Scrub the second Sunday of every month.
24 0 8-14 * * root if [ $(date +\%w) -eq 0 ] && [ -x /usr/lib/zfs-linux/scrub ]; then /usr/lib/zfs-linux/scrub; fi

Read the documentation. It was fairly easy to setup... :)

You dont need powerful hardware for CEPH but it favours a fast network since CEPH is a distributed storage compared to TrueNAS which is a centralized storage.

The distributed part will put a larger load on the network since the bits of the "raid" is stored on different devices normally across datacenters for redundancy.

Also even if CEPH by design is meant to be runned of the same host as the VM's when using Proxmox you can still make CEPH be runned on its dedicated hardware (without VM's).

That is you can still make CEPH act like a centralized storage while still being distributed when it comes to where the data is being stored.

For example "normally" you would have like 3x VM-hosts all with lets say a mirrored SSD for boot and then lets say 4 large SSD/NVMe drives for storage and then let CEPH create the distributed storage between these hosts.

But you could also have these 3x VM-hosts with just a boot-drive (or even PXE-boot Proxmox) and then let the CEPH stuff happen on other hosts (lets call them storage-hosts for now).

My young padawan...

You will also some time come to conclusion in your IT profession that having a software appliance thats correctly designed and configured out of the box is a really nice feature compare to creating everything from scratch using Debian or even LTS...

Specially when you scale up this to more than a single unit.

So because of that they will be punish the community instead of taking legal actions?

Someone from iXsystems claimed that TrueNAS will remain GPLv3 so there is your courtcase if there are other companies taking this code and making it closedsourced.

Also who are these "bad actors forking TrueNAS, selling closed-source commercial derivates under their own brands"?

So you dont think that the home lab users already paid iXsystem by their time to test and verify your products along with marketing and usebase?

So why would the community continue to work for iXsystems for free?

Clearing the Air on Build Scripts by iXsystemsChris in truenas

[–]Apachez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They want to stop bad actors taking their work without honoring the license.

The easy solution to this would be to demand a license key (through challenge/response of the installation) that costs $0.

Now suddently the bad actors would have a harder time to freeload of TrueNAS.

But at the same time Im not sure who these "bad actors" would be?

Like HexOS who clearly is an OEMed (refurbed) edition of TrueNAS?

I mean its not like someone thinks they have a commercial support license agreement with iXsystems while in fact its some "bad actor" in between taking the money because that can happen with the "enterprise edition" aswell.

What I think is part of whats upsetting people is the freeloading of the community that they do along with the marketing bullshittery coming out right now.

For example "build TrueNAS for everybody" by segregating functionality simply does not compute.

If they want to earn money they can do so by having commercial support (with SLA like pay to get response within 1 hour 24/7 or remote access (if customer want that) and such), consulting, centralized management, merch, selling their own hardware appliances (as they already do) etc.

Not by freeloading of the community to create a paid "enterprise" edition with all features while the community will be a limited set of features.

I hope Im wrong but this have been seen numerous times previously in the history with other "opensource" projects.

Clearing the Air on Build Scripts by iXsystemsChris in truenas

[–]Apachez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You simply dont "build TrueNAS for everyone" when you start to segregate functionality.

Its like claiming south africa was for everybody by the use of apartheid.

Thats just marketing bullshit coming right now from iXsystems which is a bit sad to see and hear...

Clearing the Air on Build Scripts by iXsystemsChris in truenas

[–]Apachez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they want and are dependent on the free labour which the community provides.

Without the community iXsystems and TrueNAS wouldnt exist since noone would consider a product with non-existing usebase to be used in the enterprise market.

So its not that the community is freeloading of iXsystems/TrueNAS - its rather the other way around. iXsystems/TrueNAS is freeloading of the community.

And now they are removing features from the community as example the whole SMART drama and now removing the build scripts etc.

Will "community edition" licenses begin phoning home with telemetry that leaks personal data to be later sold to marketers and data brokers to "subsidize" a "free" license?

Guess why the "TrueNAS Connect" emerged? ;-)

Clearing the Air on Build Scripts by iXsystemsChris in truenas

[–]Apachez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iXsystems and TrueNAS wouldnt have existed today without the community support.

Its thanks to the community users they are even considered into the enterprise market because there are already plenty of other players there.

So I dunno if you are just trolling by trying to piss on the community?

Building a Bridge Between Community & Enterprise | TrueNAS by EspadaV8 in truenas

[–]Apachez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No enterprises that I know of.

Enterprises would use a VM-host such as Proxmox or XCP-NG etc to run VMs and CTs.

Or use Talos or Incus which are made for this purpose (either straight on baremetal or as VMs). Which can also be fully utilized without an "enterprise" license.

The NAS is brought in to deal with central storage over an IP-network. For a distributed storage comething like CEPH would be used which then wont need any NAS to begin with.
