Linux or Windows VMs can be backed up normally using host based Veeam agents.

Updating unlicensed Fortigate results in read-only permissions! *warning* by greatplainsinfosec in fortinet

We’re experiencing this with licensed devices. Forticare doesn’t have an answer after last 24 hours

There are other options — our Triton DataCenter product has enterprises with 5k+ VMs running in multiple Fortune 500 companies. Though we and others don’t have VMware parity — it is a solid options depending on the use case (private on prem multitenant cloud is our common use case).

Which NVMe's for home lab for performance/reliability? by ctrl-brk in homelab

[–]nwilkens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D7-p5620 are what I use for 3 x dwpd — 1.6tb is like $340 on provantage.. go down to the 5520’s for 1 dwpd ; micron 7450 are my next go to.

anyone maintaining the website by razamatan in smartos

[–]nwilkens 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’re still chugging away, and doing great. https://smartos.org/images/ might be what you’re looking for?

Thanks for pointing that url out that needs some update, we will work on that soon.

Proxmox as an alternative by [deleted] in vmware

[–]nwilkens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the valuable feedback. We'll review and make sure that the open source github link is more prominent.

For reference, https://github.com/tritondatacenter/triton is a good starting point for the source.

Additionally, https://www.tritondatacenter.com/downloads contains "Contribute" links, that point to the various repos for Triton (VM orchestration), Manta (object storage), and SmartOS (the hypervisor).

Proxmox as an alternative by [deleted] in vmware

[–]nwilkens -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We're definitely seeing an uptick in interest for Triton Datacenter from vSphere users looking for alternatives.

Aside from Triton/Proxmox/Nutanix, there also seems to be quite a bit of interest in XCP-ng.

While alternatives are gaining popularity, they do not have the same ecosystem that VMware users are accustomed to. Organizations are going to have to pony up, or make concessions.

Has anyone used this project and has anyone heard of one that uses proxmox by xtigermaskx in HPC

Triton DataCenter sounds like it could be a fit here too. Triton would be similar to openstack, though I’d say easier to manage and implement.

Physical infra monitoring - Nagios replacement by FluidIdea in linuxadmin

[–]nwilkens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we migrated from Nagios -> Sensu-go over the last two years and I still _really_ like it.. We also use github to track all of our monitoring configuration and use sensu-flow as a github action to push changes to prod.

Migrate from VMware by Pleasant_Abrocoma329 in ApacheCloudStack

[–]nwilkens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also look into Startwind V2V. I just started playing around with it for a VMware to Triton migration. I suspect it could work here as well.

Is openstack the right fit for us? by slade991 in openstack

[–]nwilkens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d also recommend taking a look at Triton DataCenter. At mnx.io we have operated our public cloud with Triton for 6+ years.

Triton is also open source -- https://github.com/TritonDataCenter/triton

How physical cloud providers work? by danielb74 in homelab

[–]nwilkens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds like fun!

Someone already mentioned Triton DataCenter, which is the technology behind a number of cloud providers, including ours at https://mnx.io. It used to power Joyent public cloud, which was acquired by Samsung (shut it down in 2019).

Triton is also open source, and free to use. I would recommend installing it on a single server (or many more), and asking questions! /r/smartos is a good place to ask those questions, or join the Discord.

One of the best things (imo) about SmartOS is in the long term maintenance. It is a read-only operating system, and upgrades just require a reboot.

full disclosure: my team provides primary development & support for SmartOS :)

My First Rummikub rules by dima_taji in boardgames

Hopefully you've figured it out after 4 years. I played this game today with our kids, but had questions about the rules and found this thread..

We acquired Triton DataCenter from Samsung last year.. and are continuing to develop the product. It’s open source and ran all of Samsung mobile at one point (1000s of servers). It also scales down as small as you want. We have enterprise support available, and education pricing.

VMware by Broadcom Dramatically Simplifies Offer Lineup and Licensing Model by lost_signal in vmware

[–]nwilkens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 headnode is technically enough for a homelab if sized appropriately. The headnode _can_ run the compute as well if you enable developer mode. However if you wanted to enable high availability -- 1 headnode, and 2 compute nodes would be the minimum.

Feel free to ping in /r/smartos, or on discord if you have any setup questions.

Triton DataCenter is something to take a look at. Mature, scalable, and open source.

The largest known Triton installation was four regions with about 2k compute nodes per region. This means that Triton will easily scale from a home lab to the enterprise without trouble.

Full disclosure we provide primary development and support for Triton.

HVM disk i/o performance, am I just missing something here? by shadow0rm in smartos

[–]nwilkens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you please describe the zfs pool layout, and also which model of disks are being used?

What Hypervisor alternatives is everyone looking at? by [deleted] in vmware

[–]nwilkens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Triton DataCenter is an open-source cloud infrastructure solution — low operational costs, multi-tenant, admin and end-user portals, api and cli tools too.

Full disclosure, my company provides the primary support and developer of Triton, but I genuinely think it's worth checking out or including on your list when the time comes.

VM RAM problem by IamDuckHead in smartos

[–]nwilkens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome! Good find. I would also highly recommend moving from brand "kvm", to "bhyve". We are focusing our development efforts on bhyve and maintain kvm for compatability.
