My own approach is to run vm/lxc of SSDs that's are hosted on proxmox directly.
Then I have a truenas with Nas storage. I mount that through SMB to proxmox and pass the different dirs into the vm/lxc that need them.
SSD are much better performance for vm/lxc.
Edit: even running the Nas as a vm i would mount it with SMB, making it easy to spilt them up later if you want. Also I have 10gbit netcards between the nas and proxmox.
I'm glad you have not sucked his dick in a long time 🥳
Install proxmox, and play around with Linux containers, if it goes wrong just delete it and start over. Also installing change detection is quite easy using helper scripts: https://helper-scripts.com/scripts?id=Change+Detection
Just curious, is there anything like that for Facebook? Facebook groups specifically.
I've been using proxmox mainly with lxc containers for years. I gave an lxc running docker and portainer, for a few services I have running in docker.
I wouldn't do it with anything critical it anything that needs mich performance or resources. But honestly most things don't need that.
So is you like me just need a few docker containers and you already have everything else running - this can be a fine way to do it. Go for it :)
I watched birds are not real Ted talk the other day, I think it was awesome to give a perspective on the conspiracy stuff and how people run with it.
If it flies, it spies. 🐣
It worked really well for me, used to have two domains on it, have one now - it made sense to move one of them to an old legacy gmail to have integrated calendar.
Anyway, been happy about mxroute, from what I read they are quite strict about not using it to bulk email, but I'm just using it for my personal mail, so that's not an issue.
They also provide access to smtp logs in and out, makes it easy to see if an email was sent out received.
The downside is the 10gb space, but if you like me are only a few people then it's most likely not an issue.
Sounds crazy they are but allowed to negotiate?
Is that the same for anything else the government buys? I can't imagine the army buying 100 tanks and just paying the first price they get?
I've bought mxroute lifetime a year ago, so far it been working really good. I use imap for my mail, my wife gets it forwarded to Gmail - both works fine.
Plus I can use mxroute smtp from my self host server to send mails from the services on it.
Could be worth to look into.
Isn't the frontend stuff open source? So even if they change something, others might make a fork?
I took my truenas some months ago and installed proxmox on that server instead.
I can't from your post figure out what you need truenas for? Proxmox runs zfs, etc?
I made an lxc container with samba to share the discs in proxmox.
I'm not op, but: I have 10gbit between by truenas server and my proxmox server. The use case is faster access to files from my proxmox server.
1gbit is actually quite slow when we talk disk speed.
