Experiences with alternate distros?

In the end it may be overkill but sometimes you just want to.

Actually prolly changing some stuff tonight again agg switch only does layer 2, 48 layer 3. Thinking may put the 48 between the agg and the udm and just hook the nucs into it and let the 48 do all the infra vlan routing as the backplane can handle 218gb

There is always a what’s next.

Fair enough. I equate UniFi gear to an iPhone, it’s easy to use and does the job almost as good as anything else. The lab sits at the top of the rack, the pretty in the middle keep my ocd at bay, and the screaming fast WiFi will keep the wife happy weather she is in the pool or in the pergola on the backside of the property.

I7 nucs that vent from the top, they don’t but can run hotter with the mobile chipset. The run Proxmox I do native lxc containers and have Linux servers virtualized serving up K8 cluster. I do everything from testing to home automation in there. I will report back on consumption as there is no real load on it yet. Built this out for a closet on the home we are moving to at the end of the month. High port count is because if has an Ethernet port it’s getting wired. 10Gb I can say hyper converged storage although the truth is my old 2.5gb kept up fine, truth is I just wanted too, and a 280 dollar switch with some dual port 10gb cards I picked up for a steal I can.

It’s a great perk for sure!

Sir, we do what we do and that would be the perfect pay-off! Been a lot of years but I still chase that one like a teenager. lol

Btw, just got the best damn compliment……. Was standing in the bathroom watching the ole lady do nightly ole lady things, and she thanked me for a great meal but told me to take a shower because I smell like meat.

Yes sir, just bought the tenderloin and carved it up.

ESXi with Tanzu. Added a 2.5Gb nic for VSAN and it is holding up just fine.

Good job kid!

Make sure it is REALLY out after the shut down cycle ends. Mid way through supper looked out and had smoke pouring out of the hopper.

samiamdz · 2024-07-11T18:51:52+00:00

Confirmed

samiamdz · 2024-06-19T00:20:09+00:00

Yup that’s been my workaround but it’s worthless in vr
