You should be able to migrate most or all of your existing Hyper-V VMs to Proxmox, which would be relatively straight forward. My recommendation would be backing up everything to your TrueNAS (that has the dedicated HBA) then you can wipe your Windows boot drive and install Proxmox. Then you could start by migrating your TrueNAS VM over and passing it's HBA back to it.

Yeah I thought about this being the easiest way to do it. I just wasn't sure if TrueNAS would come back up and just recognize the disks and start working. I have backups of everything and I've tested restoral. I would prefer to not have to go the backup restoral route as it's more a scorched earth option. My other VMs I'm not really concerned about, it was mainly the NAS.

I don't really have any experience with PVE, but I want to learn. I've been learning about docker containers more recently, I like learning new tech so I'm all for it. My main PC has been running Linux for about 6 months now and I'm just trying to get away from Microsoft in general. Thanks for the info.

This is great and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

 

I was wondering if I could get some suggestions from the community about the best way to go about migrating from Windows Server on my homelab host to Proxmox.

Background: Currently running Server 2022 Datacenter on my host because that's what I was familiar with. Using Hyper-V to manage multiple VMs like HomeAssistant and TrueNAS among other things. I have multiple container apps running within TrueNAS. There's an HBA passed through Hyper-V to the TrueNAS VM that has all of my HDDs connected to it. I'm just looking to migrate away from anything Microsoft/Windows.

Way Forward: The only procedure that I could come up with in my head was moving everything off of the NAS to my personal PC if I have the space, or maybe multiple PCs in the house. Back up all of my configs. Install Proxmox on the host, build out the VMs again, then restore the configs and just hope everything works the same. Or, just backup my configs build the new VMs on proxmox, restore and hope the new TrueNAS VM sees the data on the HDDs? I don't know if that would work.

If someone has a better idea, I'd like to hear it. Is there any way to dual boot Proxmox on the host maybe and slowly migrate things 1 by 1? Can you convert the VMs from Hyper-V before I install Proxmox?

Thanks everyone!

100%, trying to get my local icons to show up was a pain in the ass, turned out to be a permissions issue on the storage. I didn't want homepage reaching out to the web for icons.

I only recently started using it, honestly couldn't say. I've never used portainer. I just started using dockge because that's what the guide I was following for the arr stack was using. Still haven't finished the arr stack setup yet. I did stand up changedetection with dockge though because trying to set it up in TrueNAS was a pain in the ass when trying to get it to play with playwright correctly.

Well the dev built it to run in a container image. You'd have to ask them why that was their choice instead of making an app that can be installed. The dev is on Lemmy, they've posted before. Shoot them a message.

You basically get all of the things an adobe subscription would get you for free? Also, I'm on Linux so no Adobe anyway. It all runs in the browser so no need to install software.

Yeah, Homepage is great.

Correct, most of that is ZFS cache. All of my containers are barely using 2-3GB.

Look up some youtube videos on self hosting. For Immich I just mostly followed their guide on their site. Really depends on what you want to do and how you want to do it.

Really the only thing I use it for currently are 2 smart plugs to turn my turtle's lights on/off on a schedule. Replaced some amazon plugs with some ESP32 plugs. I plan on doing more if/when we move into our forever home.

I have a Prusa Core One+ that I just got and built recently, don't have anything for it on the homepage. Then the Octoprint is on a Pi 3B plugged into my Prusa MK3S+. I've been trying to sell the MK3S+ because I don't have room for them both, but not getting any takers.

 

Any recommendations for my Homepage setup or services to add/replace?

Had this thing printed months ago, but I procrastinated and finally got it put together. Just needs paint now.
