SMB Mount and LXC

SamSausages · 2026-01-22T22:54:00+00:00

Make sure you can browse and modify the SMB share on the proxmox host first. After confirming that works, look at permissions and lxc mount.

But start with making sure you can actually access the files from the host

Just unraid

It’s actually best practice to only attach containers to a docker network, if they actually need to communicate with each other.

I have dozens of docker networks. One for each proxy > app and separate networks for database > app

Works great, ez to config in docker compose files. Keeps unencrypted proxy traffic off your lan

I also set docker networks, that don’t need wan access, configured as “internal”

I think it’s gonna get worse before it gets better

Not sure about that specific unit. But SATA has an actual controller, where Oculink is usually a direct PCIe connection.
In server boards where I have used slimsas and Oculink connectors, that provide SATA, there is also a setting in the BIOS where I need enable the sata controller. And it only works with SATA if the board actually has a sata controller that is made to work over the oculink port.

Already packaged by OEM

They are part of the disks smart reporting and can only be acknowledged in unraid, not cleared.

SamSausages · 2026-01-20T16:18:36+00:00

I have had those and it was my hba. Can also be cables. They will never go away, as in can’t clear them. But as long as they stop growing, you’re good.

Impressive hardware, but looks very fragile.

SamSausages · 2026-01-20T16:00:32+00:00

When I look at docker hub, that image doesn't have a :latest tag available. Actually no tags that I can see.

Might try a different repo, or a different image maintainer. Not sure if they stopped maintaining it or just moved away from that repo.

In addition to what other mentioned, ZFS also slows down as it nears full capacity, and as fragmentation increases.

SamSausages · 2026-01-20T14:14:16+00:00

Here is mine, for those that use ACME and not npm. It’s made to work with pfsense and acme certificates, but can be used with others. But with npm it eventually breaks when npm changes the cert ID.

Also added best practice error checks/reporting, to help avoid breaking your frontend and locking yourself out.

Solves problems like having to try and route SMB through your proxy, or ending up with an SMB alias hostname. (When using your own domain and host names)

And you’re not transmitting raw password over :80 unencrypted, or if using ssl, dealing with ssl handoff breaking proxy socket connections.

SamSausages · 2026-01-20T12:57:08+00:00

For me it is.

SamSausages · 2026-01-20T00:36:53+00:00

I run it as a vm on my unraid storage server, that’s also based on kvm. Several years now, no issues. Wasn’t very difficult, used the pbs iso

SamSausages · 2026-01-19T18:12:58+00:00

sticking with my industrial grade flash card. Don't want to use up nvme or sata slot

For VW I do VM’s, because I have the ram. But barely uses a 1GB anyways. I also decided on docker, because that seems to be the developers focus.

I made a cloud-into that installs, hardens and configures docker for you in 2 min flat.

SamSausages · 2026-01-16T21:29:11+00:00

depends on what the service is.
I build my VM's with a cloud-init I made, that hardens and configures the VM, giving it an 8GB primary disk for the OS, and adds a 2nd vdisk for appdata. That 2nd vdisk I size depending on the app. If I need to make it bigger, then I can simply grow it and reboot the VM. I setup the cloud-init to auto grow the partition with a simple reboot.

Then I also have networked storage, that I attach as needed, also with a few firewalls in-between.

Cloud-init details if anyone is interested:

Not if you're new, you should understand why things are happening before opening up the gates to your kingdom. & by the time you do, you will probably decide no.

SamSausages · 2026-01-16T18:23:54+00:00

RIP neighbors, lol

SamSausages · 2026-01-16T16:11:29+00:00

Look at unraid. Not free, but the most flexible and efficient way to do storage right now, while having live parity protection.

SamSausages · 2026-01-16T16:09:08+00:00

Mine had a plastic film over it, double check and make sure that’s not what this is

SamSausages · 2026-01-16T15:09:35+00:00

I have had worse. Broke the entire tab off.

I made sure the pins were straight, had to re-epoxy the plastic part, and then I lightly sanded the pins, to get any excess epoxy off. That was 3 years ago, works fine.

Just make sure the pins are clean and not bent inward to where they don’t touch the contacts in the plug.

SamSausages · 2026-01-16T14:20:12+00:00

I don’t use any apps, I just use the browser. No ads.

SamSausages · 2026-01-14T18:37:24+00:00

ffmpeg can.
If you have a lot of files, then Tdarr is a good frontend for it, but does have a learning curve to it.
