How’s the state of DayZ these days by the way? I haven’t messed with it since they first moved over to the standalone client.

Do you still have to cheat a bit to get the cost effective storage for NASs or had that changed?

You’re a BSD fan, we know you can’t help it  In terms of reverse proxies, is there any reason to swap from Synology’s solution if I’m getting what I need out of it? Iirc the only thing I have external facing is Plex and 99% of my use case is “I hate IP addresses and/or ports in my address bar.”

Synology’s Photo app can field most of that, but it assumes you’re in their ecosystem already. Maybe Photoprism?

Got around to playing with Synology drive the other day after a year or two of not really caring/bothering and it’s pretty magical. Being able to have those files be local when I need them is a hoot on the laptop. A bit less so on the desktop as it’s hardwired in all the time and not hurting for storage, but still. I hope they get a Linux ARM build out soon so I can replace borg with it for my RasPi workstation backups.

I do, but only because I have a couple of internet exposed services and the red lock deal driving me insane. It’s pretty easy for me to add new domains now that I have things moved to DigitalOcean and use their CLI tool.

Hm. Last I looked our setup was just a general discount and the 10 $/mth I’m currently doing for LR and PS (plus some amount of storage I don’t use) is low enough that I can’t be bothered. Free would be better of course. Back to email talk, I’ve been half thinking about getting a domain to have a fancy dumb email address instead of a @gmail one. Is this a bad/dumb idea for personal use? I could see problems arising if the domain price spiked or something. Afaik you can’t just outright own anything anymore so that seem like a potential nonstarter.

They’re not super useful for the most part imo, at least the official ones. If there is a “read more” FRSS version I don’t know about I’d love to hear about it. This said between the web interface and Reeder on my Mac stuff it’s about perfect.

I also went ahead and added a bunch of other extensions (I hadn't messed with them before). I forgot about the thread so forgive me being late to the party. That's pretty neat and I'll have to check it out. Most of the places I pull from right just kind of dump everything into the feed....object? so I usually don't have to click through but it might be fun to tinker with it. On a related note, since we're using RSS in the year of our lord 2023, does anyone have some blogs they're fond of? I'm always looking for another source to pull from.

On that subject, is there any sort of configuration I could do/make where a NUT server would would work without the main network router being on a UPS as well? My lab stuff is off somewhere else and I’d have to go buy at least 2 UPSs I order to keep power on the router and a switch I have b/t the two “ends”.

SamDabbers posted:Can you power your router with PoE? Then it can run off the UPS in your lab even though it's in another room. Something like this adapter could be useful if your router uses a DC barrel jack and doesn't natively accept standard PoE. Not sure, I’d have to look. Even if so that would require replacement of two switches to support PoE so that may or may not be viable.

Iirc the API endpoint is it’s own thing so you could just set up a rule/path/whatever to that without oauth enforced and go about your business. That would have your feed sitting out there but at worst that would result in someone criticizing your taste in articles.

I do on occasion, there are plenty of ways to skin that cat but the "simplest" there may be to set up a VM template either manually or via packer/cloudinit that has the user/ssh key for your ansible runners and go from there. If you're looking for something a bit more dynamic or complicated automating the deployment entirely via Terraform may be more attractive and just have the ansible element serve as an external provider after the actual provisioning is complete.

While we’re on the subject, has anyone here dealt with Packer on Proxmox? I’ve finally got it more or less doing what I want but it stalls out waiting on a ssh connection. The VM is getting created and configured and can even ping/curl the Packer endpoint when accessed via the Proxmox console but I haven’t been able to sort out what the issue is so far. The VM is running Ubuntu Jellyfish if that’s any help.

It’s completely possible though a bit limited. You can create a VM or a container with the given attributes. That’s about it.

So I think I’ve screwed up. Last night I set about setting up gitea on my Synology and was surprised to see that the installation step was taking absolute ages despite being a Docker container. After a bit of digging I think the problem is that the MariaDB instance I’m running is both on a btrfs file system and likely within a share with checksum checking enabled. Both apparently are strongly advised to not be used for anything with a large amount of random writes which, potentially, explains why this git business hasn’t finished setting itself up after 7 or so hours as well as lackluster performance of DB/VM/some Docker containers in the past. Naturally my existing volume takes up everything on the NAS so there is no reasonable path forward to pull the data off so I can go about making a smaller volume that’s more performant for that sort of workload. Fun. This said, I sure do have a Proxmox machine that isn’t doing a great deal and would likely be a bad better home to both my DB and container infrastructure. Is there any “idiot’s guide” for this sort of thing I should know about? Naturally shifting things over isn’t going to be particularly hard but I’d like to avoid gotchas like this in the future.

That’s because it is. Docker Swarm should be looked into first as it does more or less what you’re looking for but isn’t an experience akin to slamming your hog in a car door to maintain and set up. If you’re not an enterprise setup you likely don’t need K8s. This said, you’d do well to look into to High Availability (HA) setups for your app of choice to see if it even plays nice in that sort of setup. If it’s not meant for that sort of architecture then it’s likely going to become a job in and of itself to get to play nice.

Is there anyone here I can pick the brains on for Synology or regular networking nonsense? I recently started using IDrive for offsite backups and they provide a Syn native application that "just works". This is all well and good, but it is architected to run via a web portal using the Syn native webserver (Apache iirc) and lives as a subdomain, [nas domain]/IDrive. The issue here is that my Reverse Proxy (again, Syn native. NGX iirc) isn't having it when I try to access it via the domain and I have to use [NAS IP]/IDrive to go about my business. Not a major issue, but an annoying one. Does anyone have a notion as to what might be causing the issue? The web service has an alias set up so [domain]/subdirectory ought to work same as it would for the photo service.

Nitrousoxide posted:If you're running the SQL server in a docker/podman container I'd just stop the container and back up the data volumes. It might be a bit bigger than it strictly needs to be from a proper sql dump, but you should never need to worry about learning the underlying sql tool. Oh huh, I hadn’t considered that. Iirc it’s just in some LXC setup from turnkey so I could likely automate that all in Proxmox. Hell, I should go see if Turnkey bundled some stuff in.

Nitrousoxide posted:If your VM's storage is on ZFS storage you can use the "snapshot" mode in a backup task (one of the options under your proxmox cluster's datacenter) which will only pause the VM for a second or two while it snapshots the storage's current state. Then it'll run the backup on that state while it keeps running. Otherwise if it's not on ZFS storage you can have it suspend or shut down the vm for the backup. This obviously takes it down longer. You know, I don't honestly know. I set up this PMox instance years ago just to try it out and have been meaning to get around to wiping it out and resetting it up with intention.

Dockge is apparently adding support for remote hosts and agents similar to how Portainer do, which pretty much removes the last reason I had to use the drat thing. I need to see if they have built in cron stuff. Portainer did iirc but you had to do some weird nonsense.

Speaking of, when did it become kosher to run databases in containers anyway? When I first started out common wisdom was that it was a terrible idea but that seems to have changed from then. I’d presume so long as you’re volume mounting the data it would largely be fine.

bsaber posted:I haven’t used it yet but have been looking at Wallabag: https://github.com/wallabag/wallabag WB has promise but is a bit of a nightmare to set up. I ran the docker version for a bit but it’s architected in such a way that it has load bearing env vars for reverse proxy settings so you can just brick your entire setup for no reason even if you try and use IP:Port. It’s barely supported as well. Also also, the mobile client will just coin flip on whether or not it will authenticate and connect to your instance; naturally there are no descriptive errors as to why. Great promise, some of the worst implementation I’ve seen.

The email bit should be in a thread of its own imo as anywhere you bring it up you’re going to hear the same as you have here. You’re insane for doing this of your own volition, but I applaud your insanity. Most people doing self hosting are either full on homelab setups and don’t have a need or desire for lower overhead stuff or are just sticking to OTS solutions to problems. I honestly think you should ditch the RasPi for something more capable as it really isn’t great for what you’re trying to accomplish imo. They’re great machines but blood from a stone and so on. Edit: to be clear though that is a neat little way to accomplish what you’re going for with as little overhead as possible. Warbird fucked around with this message at 17:37 on Jan 14, 2024 |

Maybe it will coax the comic bassed *arr apps to not be utter rear end in a few months. I've been vaguely meaning to mess with Kogma but it hasn't been near the top of my list. On that note, how did those extensions handle progress syncing anyway? CBRs are just fancy zip files iirc so I could sort of guess at the methods. Same question for ebooks if anyone here happens to know.
