moved pi-hole and HA from pi3 to miniPC Proxmox reddit / selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nivijah · 2023-11-25 04:36 what an awesome experience, I'm now addicted, what are other things you guys have running? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dazchad · 2023-11-25 05:38 https://github.com/Kickball/awesome-selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- szakes1 · 2023-11-25 06:55 I have three VMs on Proxmox VE: 1. OPNsense as a router/firewall for my whole network, 2. "Zeus" (god from Greek religion, I usually name VMs as gods from Greek religion) - VM with multiple Docker containers: Jellyfin, Plex, Nextcloud etc. 3. UniFi - VM with just UniFi Controller in a Docker container. I wanted to separate the UniFi controller and Zeus' apps, so that's why they're two VMs. 4. Other VMs, I use Proxmox VE to spawn more VMs and test some solutions at work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- notdoreen · 2023-11-25 07:06 What do you use unifi for? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Beneficial-Clock4820 · 2023-11-25 07:06 Hi ---------------------------------------------------------------------- szakes1 · 2023-11-25 07:13 I use it to manage Ubiquiti UniFi devices. I have one network switch and four access points from Ubiquiti, so instead of managing every network device separately, I configure them from one, centralized console. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ciberjohn · 2023-11-25 08:16 Sounds nice. I use a similar setup, only my server is a mini of with 12gbs of RAM and 1TB msata. Instead of VMs I use Linux containers with ubuntu as base. Then I run full-fat applications like Wazuh, checkmk and docket containers. I tend to use one LXC per function. I even host my personal blog in this setup. No piercied firewall here for public facing services. I'm using clouflare tunnels and access. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ciberjohn · 2023-11-25 08:17 Apologies for the typo. I meant my server is a mini PC (18w/h) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Fishamatician · 2023-11-25 08:57 I'm doing this today as well! I have a dell wyse 5070 and am moving pihole and unbound dns over then adding a reverse proxy and maybe a vpn for my networking stack. I plan to put each in its own lxc container but still not sure if that's the right approach. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AfterShock · 2023-11-25 12:45 I did similar a little over a year ago, I got tired of trying to justify things to keep my pi 3 in service. Had a ProxMox cluster of Intel NUCs running so just created lxc containers for everything I had on the pi. Now with HA!! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nivijah · 2023-11-25 13:05 went through that, but wanted to know whats "standard", so much too choose from ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nivijah · 2023-11-25 13:08 > Jellyfin thanks ! wasn't familiar with Jellyfin, ill give it a spin ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Oujii · 2023-11-25 13:34 How do you manage reboots and maintenances on your PVE host as your network is attached to it? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sk1nT7 · 2023-11-25 13:51 - get yourself a dashboard. I recommend `homepage` - get yourself a video conferencing platform. I recommend `mirotalk` - get yourself a type writing web app to improve your typing speed and challenge other people. I recommend `monkeytype` - get yourself a family tree and manage all your family members. I recommend `gramps web` - get yourself a drawing platform. I recommend `excalidraw` - get yourself a recipe platform. I recommend `mealie` - get yourself a photo backup solution alike to Google photos. I recommend `immich` - get yourself a git repo manager. I recommend `gitea` - get yourself a VPN. I recommend `wg-easy` You can find many more examples in my public repo with many compose examples: https://github.com/Haxxnet/Compose-Examples ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nivijah · 2023-11-25 13:56 thank you! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- darthrater78 · 2023-11-25 14:28 Here's another great source for PVE scripts. https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jsaumer · 2023-11-25 15:06 I do the same, but... I don't use my shared storage for my piholes. I have two of them, one on each miniPC, on local storage, and then PBS backs them up to my backup storage. Reason being, redundant DNS. I lose a node, or lose shared storage? I will still have DNS. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GoobyFRS · 2023-11-25 15:09 This is /selfhosted Host what you want because you want to learn and tinker. Not because a random ass list on the Internet says it's "standard"..... I host like 25 items off that list he linked, because I want too. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nivijah · 2023-11-25 15:16 that's fair ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dazchad · 2023-11-25 16:09 To add to GoobyFRS, there's no standard. Host what makes your life easier (or harder; not judging). Some people like to be practical, others experimental. Common items are PiHole, Home Assistant, Jellyfin/Plex/Emby/etc, *arr suite, own/nextcloud, wireguard/tailscale/vpn (sometimes all of them), Unraid/Truenas/generic NAS, [Google Photos alternatives ](https://www. reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/k5nzkj/google_photos_the_megathread/) , etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Silencer306 · 2023-11-25 18:16 How does OPNsense work as a router for the entire home? You have it on a machine right? Or is there a way to install it on the actual router? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Icannotfindnow · 2023-11-25 18:42 You can go through people's dashboards they post here and get a good idea what is commonly self hosted. I would think it best to figure out what you want to accomplish and work backwards from there. Media --> Jellyfin Photos --> Immich Music--> Navidrome Good luck.
