    Hallo Christian. Darf ich Du sagen? Ich verfolge ihren Kanal jetzt schon seit längerer Zeit. Sie sind ein absolut sympathischer Mensch. Und ich habe von Ihren Videos schon sehr viel gelernt. Danke dafür ;-) Ich bin jetzt nicht unbedingt ein Englisch native speaker. … darum auf deutsch :-) Dieses minisforum Board gibt es ja in zwei Varianten. Auch als Intel Version mit 4 nvme slots. Jetzt die Frage an sie. Ich mag ja immer alles sehr gerne redundant. Heißt. Sicherheit. Würde darum lieber zum Intel Board tendieren. Mein setup wäre. Auf zwei 4 tb nvmes das Betriebssystem von Proxmox. Plus VM Speicher, Raid 1. Plus zwei 4 Tb nvmes. Raid 1. für die VMs. Habe zwei UnRaid Server mit 400 Tb am laufen. Gespiegelt. Bin sehr in Video und Fotografie tätig. Darum der Speicher. Und. Ein unsicherer Mensch, der Angst davor hat, Daten zu verlieren. Power Consumptiion ist sehr wichtig. Können sie mir mit einer Entscheidung helfen? Viele Grüße an Sie

    Having a HomeLab is definately very helpful, using it since my early IT days. And concentration on an IT-field is key, you will become distracted very easily. As you said, a goal is important, I have to find a new one now that I'm well into Linux. Maybe deeper into Linux (also programming) or Windows world, as my employer uses it also. Thanks for the great video, will be very helpful for IT-beginners.

  • @23Vacuu
    @23Vacuu Před dnem

    Just to clearify: You have an Server running Home Assistent in your network and maybe some sensors. Sensors are dump so the data from them can only be pulled by a gateway like ConBee2 which need the appropiate support of the software link like Zigbee2MQTT which depends on the device itself? How about zigbee sensors for example. Do they also need a gateway? It would make sense cause they are also dump by default right? Second question: What about the range. If you want to have one sensor really far away from the gateway how can it connect and how can it pull the data?

    This is a good discussion. Basically you trade cost for support. It really boils down to that. If you pay a company, they can afford to quit their "day jobs" and fix the bugs that inevitably come up.

  • @heldmar
    @heldmar Před 2 dny

    Hey Christian! First of all great channel, and thanks for such great videos! I am a Proxmox user for more than 8 years now, and most of the things you summarized in this video are really a must do. One thing I would recommend is setting up a VM in Proxmox, and connect primers to the Proxmox server and pass them through, if your VM is Linux for example, you can share those printers using CUPS and you will have the printers easily available for any device within your network without the need to even install them or configure it. I have done it, and I am able to print from Linux desktop, Windows desktop, Mac desktop, iPhones and iPads by simply using network printer, no driver hassle or ant other shannanigans! I hope this helps and also you can use this idea for your environment. Cheers!

    Good tips but clickbait title. You can definitely run proxmox without any of these tips. Except for updates, of course.

  • @praetorxyn
    @praetorxyn Před 2 dny

    Good timing. I have a Minisforum MS-01 sitting next to my desk that will be my first ever Proxmox host, but the RAM doesn't arrive til Monday I think, and the WD N700 2TB SSDs I ordered were on back order, so they're not supposed to get here til Wednesday. The first thing I want to do with it is stand up a Debian VM to serve as my Docker host, and move all my Docker containers off my Synology NAS onto there. I am however a tad leery about the virtualized storage, as I just don't know if I like the stuff being wrapped up in virtual disks with snapshots backed up to the NAS, as opposed to backing up the actual files themselves to the NAS, then backing them up offsite to Backblaze B2 or something. Can you speak to this? Like... if I have snapshot backups and Proxmox gets hosed, if I setup Proxmox again will restoring those snapshots work?
