Is there any actual research? All I see are TikTok videos and Reddit comments.
Love another iOS option.
Nextcloud Photos performs okay, but the interface is very ‘meh’. Plus, the mobile client’s sync is a little unstable. On iOS, there’s no background sync at all.
This seems the correct advice. If the container is on the same host as the data, there’s no need to access the data via Samba. In fact, it’s likely the container doesn’t contain the samba client needed for such connectivity.
Assuming TrueNAS allows the containers to see local data, a bind mount is the way to go.
Maybe some castration along the way, too.
Right. You kind of want your bare metal OS as vanilla as possible. If you need to nuke and pave, you don’t need to worry about re-applying various configs. Additionally, on a theoretical level, if there’s a bug in something on the bare metal OS, the separation provided by VMs and containers should mean it doesn’t affect the the apps in those VMs / containers.
That seems easier - at least to me - than keeping track of configs in text files or even Ansible playbooks.
This is good stuff. Has it been posted to the project’s GitHub (issue, discussion, etc.)?
Just watched this episode. It was as fun as a Q episode can be. Slightly annoying that the omnipotent beings can come around and NOT whoosh Voyager forward on the journey home.
Have you considered searching the GitHub issues?
I love how the ONE time they did, all the fears were validated.
This is a question probably better-suited for one of the Proxmox communities. But, I’ll give it a try.
Regarding your concerns about new SSDs and old VM configs: why not upgrade to PVE8 on the existing hardware? This would seem to mitigate your concerns about PVE8 restoring VMs from a PVE7 system. Still, I wouldn’t expect it to be a problem either way.
Not sure about your TrueNAS question. I wouldn’t expect any issues unless a PVE8 installs brings with it a kernel driver change that is relevant to hardware.
Finally, there are several config files that would be good to capture for backup. Proxmox itself doesn’t have a quick list, but this link has one that looks about right: https://www.hungred.com/how-to/list-of-proxmox-important-configuration-files-directory/
