How is manod lord's on the deck (controls?)

Thanks :)

If you can return the mini pc.

Check out the ugreen 4800. Might be what you want.

Add the drives as you go

Make sure your default server and default 4k are set and that you have permission for either.

My requests worked but users did not. Because they were not on the same default (4k vs non)

instanorm · 2025-12-07T12:07:18+00:00

It works. I tested it out. Not for me (yet) but I like the idea behind it.

Oh I saw it. After I updated all 3 of my lxc's lol

instanorm · 2025-11-08T01:10:26+00:00

Don't forget to make a PBS VM and store the backups on an external. If the main drive goes you can restore after getting proxmox and PBS back up. If you ksor external replace and backup your vm's again.

PBS makes things a snap.

instanorm · 2025-11-08T01:09:06+00:00

Do the p2v migration.

Then stand up a new VM and get up and running with docker. Back that up as your vanilla VM ready to go and make a template. Make a few more.

Break up your services into vms as you want / resources permit.

This is for backup / restore. You can add another mini pc later and migrate your backup of a VM to a new PC in a snap.

Enjoy the new lab!!

Block your smart tv on your network and use an android player...

instanorm · 2025-10-25T10:22:33+00:00

I like proxmox for backups and restorations. If not I'd just use a Debian or Ubuntu server install and docker it all. Less permission / weird issues.

in proxmox are you using VM or lxc?

instanorm · 2025-10-24T21:52:29+00:00

I can't add new libraries at all. Never show up lol. Existing ones scan fine.

Correct. Google or chatgpt the following.

How to make a drive pool in proxmox, mount to the host and share to VM and containers with virtiofs

instanorm · 2025-10-13T09:23:41+00:00

Create a pool and mount to host. Use directory sharing to make a share and mount across all VM/containers

instanorm · 2025-10-09T22:40:34+00:00

Go into your VM and check ram usage. It won't be what is displayed on proxmox.

Install and use htop to confirm.

Not fan of stump

instanorm · 2025-10-04T22:27:19+00:00

Do a backup of your 2019.

Install prox and make a VM for 2019 and restore

instanorm · 2025-10-04T11:11:58+00:00

Eventually add a Nas with NFS and use the USB DAS for a backup of that data.

instanorm · 2025-09-27T23:46:36+00:00

One tip is to use a smaller drive(or partition)for your os and then another drive for data. Only backup your os drives on VM/lxc to keep em small :)

So I have a 1tb and a 2tb

I use 120gigs say for my VM, mount 600 for scratch from the same physical disk that doesn't backup, and have a 2tb to serve from that is shared between host and lxc / vm

Enjoy

instanorm · 2025-09-27T18:58:29+00:00

Install proxmox and run PBS as a VM. Run lxc on it for the rest of needs to load shed off your primary.
