I perform a backup once a week from my main desktop to a HDD, then once a month I copy important data/files from all nodes (proxmox, rpi's and main desktop) to 2 "cold" unplugged HDD that's the only time I connect them. I do all of that using rsync with backup.sh and coldbackup.sh

I use syncthing for notes across mobile/desktop/notebook, for that and other important files the backup goes to Google Drive or MEGA (besides the offline backup).

I want to try S3 Glacier since is cheaper for cloud backup... has anyone tried?

Can we get a factorio server?

Wait for it to go up gain 🥲. But now I'm curious how people use 4G as second option maybe I will try juat for fun.

What a good timing, I was looking for a YT music replacement.

Navidrome seems like a good choice but is exactly what you're are saying "classic media player with a webUI". I like the convenience of YT music recommendations and all the music available even the music I don't usually listen to. I would need a much bigger music library or a way to facilitate the music discovery and automate the downloads.

I know there's is Lidarr to automatically download music but I read some people saying music naming scheme is a mess. So anybody has successfully replaced Spotify or YT music with Navidrome or similar? How is your setup?

Maybe it's hard at the beginning but as you keep doing it becomes easier. If you feel overwhelmed take a break for a few days and try again later. I think we all have been there and hit a wall. Self host, open source and Linux communities are friendly you can ask for help and find someone willing to help you, so don't be afraid to ask for help (as I was before). Just take small steps.

Don't give up. Have fun.

Make sure my proxmox desktop build can do GPU passthrough.

I use podman auto-update command.

I'd also like to see what others use

So I have been running a proxmox server for a few month now, just playing with it a bit blindly. Just recently bough another drive and reading the storage docs I got some question how does everyone else do things... now I'm planning a backup strategy and want to know what are good practices to manage my VMs/LXC and storage in general.

I currently have:

  • 250G SSD shared between host and VMs/LXC
  • 4TB HDD in RAID1 (ZFS)
  • 8TB HDD as LVM

I normally create VMs with 30G base storage in the SSD and add another virtual hard drive to the VM from the HDDs to create a LVM inside the VMs to store data. Is that good enough? Would I have bad performance creating the VMs in the HDDs?

When creating a snapshot I see this warning below:

WARNING: Sum of all thin volume sizes (438.00 GiB) exceeds the size of thin pool pve/data and the size of whole volume group (<223.07 GiB).

That got me wondering:

  • How should I store snapshots in another drive? In the ZFS? Would cause issues if I delete old snapshots?
  • What about backups for the VMs? I'd like to have automatic weekly backups but how should I plan this?
  • Also I'm not sure if the 8TB is ok as LVM or should be LVM-thin or directory?

If you know any proxmox storage management guide for newbies please share, any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading.
