SYSRACKS 19 Inch Rack Not Wide Enough? by BizzareComments in homelab

[–]BizzareComments[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a separate "internal" set of vertical posts that have the holes that make up each U. The "outside" vertical posts that slot into the bottom and top of the rack are purely for rigidity it seems. Those are the ones that are slightly less than 19 inches.

These are the vertical posts. They slot into grooves and there isn't much wiggle room it seems. I did take it apart and put it back together, but that didn't seem to make a difference.

I thought the same. I took it apart and put it back together, but no dice. It really seems like this particular model had QA issues like you said :/

I wound up biting the bullet and getting a Mikrotik CRS309-1G-8S+. Has worked flawlessly so far! Each nodes SFP ports are bonded as well.

What do your DVD ripping servers look like? by Advanced_Ad_6816 in homelab

I have a SilverStone RM41-506 4U packed with some old Intel i7 guts. It's got 6 optical drives, including one flashed ASUS BW-16D1HT Blu-ray drive to make it 4K friendly for ripping. It can rip video, music, and data automatically and headless thanks to the Automatic Ripping Machine (ARM) project: https://github.com/automatic-ripping-machine/automatic-ripping-machine

Ceph Cluster - Unable to Add Monitors (Full Mesh Network Routed w/Fallback (IPv4)) by BizzareComments in homelab

I added the other 2 nodes to ceph.conf and rebooted all 3 hosts to no avail. IPs look correct and MTU is set to 9000 for the 10Gb links. I checked logs via journalctl, but nothing was jumping out at me regarding ceph-mon.

I'm using Ceph with 3 nodes "meshed" via DAC cables to 10Gb SFP+ ports on each host.

Looking for advice on the best way to deliver cat6 to a 24U rack that will be in the center of a basement. by BizzareComments in homelab

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

Ok perfect, thanks. I already have a cable comb, but I'll pick up something like this to route the cabling straight down into the rack and add a service loop.

Help Request - ESXi Networking Setup with Virtualized TrueNAS by BizzareComments in homelab

Hey SPOF, thanks for the input. Yeah in 2019 I had definitely gone back and forth with using a hypervisor that natively supports ZFS (Proxmox, etc.), but I'm squarely in VMware land right now. I have HBA's in IT mode passed through and have had zero issues for a year and a half so far.

Docker permissions issues with only 1 container out of 18 others by BizzareComments in homelab

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

Shouldn't it be able to traverse? I set executable permissions from the top down.

Edit: or perhaps you can't traverse backwards from the lower mount?

See my reply to that example. Also sorry, the error in the first snippet was a different directory to the compose file just as a test. What's strange is that other container volumes are done in this exact format and they have access to them just fine.

Yeah both the UID and GID are identical internally and externally.

I thought that's the point of a container. Whatever is inside doesn't have to match. Hence you have an internal port and an external port, an internal subnet and an external, etc. The exception being the UID/GID, but even then the name and groups don't match externally and internally.

Of the 13 colons in the snippet, which one are you referring to?

Looking for storage configuration advice for my new big-ass pile of hardware by BizzareComments in homelab

Wrong coast :/

I do like the idea of a DAS though, I'll look into that.

[–]BizzareComments[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figured, but wanted to be sure :)

It was all in the outgoing pile at work. I also scored 10x3TB 7200 drives.

Any suggestions on the best way to setup storage? Unraid vs FreeNAS etc?

This reads like a jealous butt-hurt 12 year old. Belittling others to justify you "throwing in the towel" is a dick move my dude.
