But today I did it! Synapse, Mastodon, and WordPress are running again. Busy with work and life and easy to procrastinate. Shortly after, I shuffled some drives around, and installed Proxmox VE and TrueNAS.Īnd that was how it sat for longer than I’d care to admit. Previously I was using Longhorn for my in-cluster storage (which worked very well).Ī couple of weeks ago, I made database dumps, ferried off some PV contents, and nuked my cluster. Another thing I’d heard about for ages but never played with. We also made a TrueNAS thing at work to do backup duties for our Proxmox servers at the data center. We use Proxmox at work, and I didn’t have much experience with it, so I wanted to have a way to play with it at home. Also felt like my learning was stagnating a bit. Makes it easier to play with things like pfSense, Security Onion, and other technologies that can’t run in a container. I’m able to run all of my workloads in Kubernetes, but the ability make VMs offers more flexibility. Difficult to use for things outside of Kubernetes. Good utilization of compute resources.īad because: not so flexible. New year, new homelab configuration! Old setup:
