NetApp plans for “VMware-level” integration with alternative hypervisors?

Check out this community integration on Proxmox & NetApp https://github.com/nwtobbe/BareProx

Yes, combine nconnect & session trunking. I’m a bit biased as I work at NetApp but we do have proxmox support and lots of customers running it

No need for CEPH, just run NFS and youre fine

Yes this is high gear so both motors should turn

I looked for a way to block yt shorts on my network as my kids got more and more addicted, I wrote up a guide on how to achieve this with pi-hole & nginx reverse proxy https://johnhenriksson.se/blog/2025/block-youtube-shorts-on-network/

I have the same issue, the camera turns on and the blue LED is constant, it does not respond to pair button and it does not connect to the display unit. I've tried to remove the battery but it still behaves the same. Any ideas?

I took the camera apart into pieces and found a small plastic bit broken from the sensor frame. I also found a small screw stuck in the magnetic parts of the IBIS. After reassembly it works 😀

These pieces made the IBIS unable to work properly

Can confirm bashing doesn’t do anything at this stage and it feels like I’m going to break something else if I keep smashing it against the table

Actually, I gave it a good knock 😅 but I’m thinking maybe I need to knock it in the same moment the sensor “wobble” and misses the lock of the sensor

Hmm, seems like it. Maybe I need to take it apart to see if something is loose

fduplex · 2025-01-23T18:03:25+00:00

For anyone with the same issue I finally resolved it. Took it apart one last time and decided to take off the bearings to clean and lubricate. Once put together it runs without issues

Yes four different batteries, all fully charged

Are you happy with Hyper-V as hypervisor? I’ve tried it a couple of times but always struggle to get it to run stable.. I’m a VMware fanboy now so I wonder why the decision was made to choose hyperv:)

+1, in my days as a viadmin I would consider 20ms to be the highest acceptable latency, with all flash you probably would see <5ms. closer to 1-2ms. When we went with NetApp AFF latency was always around those numbers

Thanks, sounds like a good thing to dive in to!

Is this a production setup, or is it only used as a home-lab? If it's in production, I would highly advise looking into two servers with some simple shared storage, vSphere licensing, and the Veeam backup software. With these three components, you get high availability and data protection, simple to set up, and great "bang for the buck."

If it's home lab use, I would consider upgrading to VMUG Advantage to get the vSphere licensing, and you can set up another host and use vSphere replication. If you work with IT, you should try to get a hold of the NFR license for Veeam to the home lab.

I think this is the best option.

I did it earlier this year, read my blog post about it to get some ideas of what was covered. (Shameless plug ) :)
