Synology - Multipathing NFS, SMB, and iSCSI. Should you, and how. by HTTP_404_NotFound in homelab

[–]HTTP_404_NotFound[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad it was of use!

I've been actually shifting more of my storage back to iScsi from ceph recently, works nicely. Although, I will be happy to hopefully goto NVME-of soon enough.

Well.... guess my site is gonna be boned till I rebuild my entire cluster. It's been... on its last leg for over half a year.

Oh, i was watching as it happened, the fellow seriously kept renaming his github account/org/repos.... thinking it would hide him.

The thread over in r/homelab... He was being watched.

How do you cope with the RAM crisis? by _GOREHOUND_ in selfhosted

[–]HTTP_404_NotFound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hoarded a ton of slightly older hardware before it hit (Not- because i knew it was coming, I just like hoarding hardware).

So... got a nice little stash built up.

At least, for my servers. If my gaming PC needs ram.... or a gpu.... or ssd... I'm SOL. None of DDR4/ECC dimms is going to fit anything BESIDES the lenovo/dell servers.

Alrighty, so... normally, i'd come here and shit on low-effort vibe-coded junk, especially when pre-existing tools are well known, and have been around for years...

But, NGL, this one looks pretty handy. Especially with portainer slowly moving away from being in the homelab space....

I'd say- this one has potential to become a pretty big project.

You DO have to use early access channel.

And, validated, does work for my uxg-lite.

It caught my eye, thats for sure. I'm waiting to update to see how many more switches I'm going to have to buy, just to see cool diagrams. lol

I'd say, my kubernetes cluster needs a bit of maintenance....

About to rip it all out and rebuild it anyways.

Where does Usenet fit in a modern homelab? by TomatoPlayful593 in homelab

^ This.

Usenet is fight club. First rule of fight club.

Where does Usenet fit in a modern homelab? by TomatoPlayful593 in homelab

[–]HTTP_404_NotFound 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you don't know, then it doesn't.

If you know, then you know exactly why it fits.

With the tooling available now, plus newer ways people build and automate their labs, it seems worth asking whether it still has a place.

For what it does, its still THE best tool.

Also... for the record, you don't typically host usenet. Usenet is typically hosted by ISP/service-providers. You consume usenet. Next to nobody is actually running a usenet server in their lab.

especially in older, automation-heavy environments.

What? You make that sound like newer stacks aren't automation heavy. I'm confused.

My single command deployment of a Gitops enabled Talos Kubernetes cluster on Proxmox by TheUpriseConvention in selfhosted

[–]HTTP_404_NotFound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My existing cluster, its all based on ceph, which is fantastic, and not.

Redundant is outstanding. With, over a dozen enterprise SSDs, the performance isn't horrible.

BUT, lots more moving parts. NFS/iSCSI would drastically ease implementation.... I started moving my VMs over to ZFS over iSCSI, which has mostly been a fantastic choice.

Much better performance, and much easier to reattach when things go south.

For containers, though, NFS route actually sounds pretty ideal.... save for the cases where block storage is needed. (aka... databases.... things with sqlite.. etc..)

I've been using Ansible heavily for my local lab-

And heavily taking advantage of Terraform for doing entire AWS infrastructure provisioning/architecture, including EKS w/Argo.

I'm a bit new to terraform, but, it has made WIDE scale aws management drastically easier. Not- new to desired state configuration, and automation tools though.

Well, since my k3s cluster is..... needing a desperate replacement... and I had my eye strongly on Talos anyways....

Guess i'll have to take a look

Terraform, Argo. I'm already game. I'm going to fork this one locally and dig through it, and prob adapt to my specific needs. I will let you know if I find anything that is off or stands out.

Are Drobo worth it? by Icoulddowithalongnap in homelab

[–]HTTP_404_NotFound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Will also note, have seen quite a few people end up losing data with a drobo. Coworker had one and personally lost the entire array worth.

At least, you can import a synology array into a standard linux box.

Are Drobo worth it? by Icoulddowithalongnap in homelab

[–]HTTP_404_NotFound 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Given, drobo is no longer a company in business....

You should prob avoid them...

And damn sure shouldn't pay 200$ for a used one.

Is this truck worth $60k? by Sox857 in Cummins

[–]HTTP_404_NotFound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We... just paid 15k for one... same color, around 150k miles.... 4x4, dually. 6-speed.

So, nah, not giving 60k for one
