Tonight, I started looking at automated deployment of services within my homelab.

I've been using ansible already, so I figured I would just start by going through my current virtual machines, harvest the config files, create ansible roles and templates, then go from there.

But then I wondered about my containerized services.

I've just migrated from Portainer to Arcane, and I realized all of my precious compose files weren't stored or tracked anywhere.

So, I did what any normal person would do, and set up a new Gitea organisation to handle my compose files and went ahead and set up each compose file (with example .env files) in new repositories. Now, a change in a compose.yml file in gitea causes the appropriate container stack to redeploy.

This is great, but how would I get these container hosts to point at arcane and get their relevant projects?
Easy! Ansible.
I can use a module to run a compose file, which links my machine to Arcane for management.

But now, I'll need to manually create an entry in Arcane for each new host before I deploy the agent. Can I automate that?

I can. Using Arcane's API, I can programmatically register a new environment, thus allowing my new device to have new gitea projects deployed to it.

So much to do!

I just need to share that I've "discovered" and started using the #MooseFS distributed file system on my local LAN and its really quite fantastic. As a professional #sysadmin I didn't find it hard to install or use, I think its quite straightforward but I'm coming at it from a different perspective perhaps than 'average' users. I will point out: it works for #immich storage, as well as steam games, believe it or not. Great for my #photography needs too. Ask anything!

So I spent a number of hours last night trying to figure out why my beautifully crafted firewall rules in pfSense suddenly stopped blocking outbound traffic when my VPN gateway was down.

It turns out newer versions of pfSense changed the firewall rule behaviour so that if you have a rule such as "if traffic source is (LAN subnet) and destination is not(LAN subnet), use VPN gateway" to force traffic over the VPN, then when the VPN gateway is down it *silently* changes the "use VPN gateway" to "use default gateway", and makes you start leaking encrypted traffic. It's so upsettingly shit 😅

Anyway, I found the relevant setting in "System -> Advanced -> Miscellaneous" and now all my firewall rules don't suddenly drinking silly-juice whenever the VPN blips.

#homelab #pfsense

A screenshot of the pfSense web UI showing the "Gateway Monitoring" options. One option is highlighted in red: "Skip rules when gateway is down Do not create rules when gateway is down By default, when a rule has a gateway specified and this gateway is down, the rule is created omitting the gateway. This option overrides that behavior by omitting the entire rule instead. " This is disabled by default and causes the aforementioned absolutely cursed behaviour

This morning after reading the #FreeBSD Handbook chapter on Jails I had a massive realization. Look, I've dabbled in jails over the years but it was really just scratching the surface. But after reading about VNET Jails....this is some deep, mind-expanding awesomeness. One can run entire workloads completely segregated by a complex virtual network with VLAN tagging, independent network stacks, routing, and switching internally on one OS on a single kernel. Not that I have a use for it (yet) but this is truly exponentially mind blowing.

It's clear FreeBSD is *the* infrastructure operating system.

When Renovate bumps a Helm chart, the PR gets a comment showing what will actually change in my cluster: not a diff of the upstream chart, but of the final manifests rendered with my values.yaml, old vs new, before I merge.

HowTo? on each PR, the CI checks out main and the PR branch and swaps SOPS values for typed placeholders. Then flate renders the #Flux HelmReleases on both sides with my values, and the diff is posted as a PR comment.

I have some questions for the #FreeBSD folks in the room:

1.) What are the best practices for Poudriere and Packages. I understand one shouldn't mix Ports and packages, but I want to have some custom builds for my machines, like vim, zsh, wget, mutt, nano, while not relying on compiling everything. Is there a safe way to do this? Presumably one tracks the same quarterly ports tree as packages. But is there more to it?

2.) When managing software using Poudriere and Ports, how does one manage emergency OOB patches? I would imagine switching Poudriere to use LATEST is an operational death wish.

Looking for anyone who has successfully installed Proxmox on an HP ProLiant DL380 G6 with a Smart Array P411 controller. I have tried Proxmox 7, 8, and 9. Most attempts end in a black screen or kernel panic. Debian itself also fails to detect the RAID 0 logical drive. I have tried both the older CCISS driver and the modern HPSA driver with no luck. Ubuntu installs without issues and sees the array fine, but I do not want Ubuntu running bare metal. I chose Proxmox because the original ESXi install is full of security vulnerabilities and ongoing problems, and I need something better supported. Has anyone got Proxmox working on this exact hardware, or found a reliable way to make the P411 visible during install?

PS. unfortunately I cannot update the firmware right now and since it is not mine and it is for the place that are work in, this is the test hardware that they gave me to try proxmox and see if it's better than EXSI or not.

Thinking of pulling my externally hosted services into my own basement.

What's everybody's favourite way to put a container on the Internet without giving it LAN access?

#homeLab #sysadmin #podman #docker

I wanted another computer as a sandbox, I don't really trust VMs, and fucking chip shortages, so to the boneyard it is. I have a disused ASRock Rack J1900D2Y with 8GB of RAM and a PicoPSU that used to be my mail server. Somehow, at some point, I modded the 1U case to mount the rack ears on the back. Annoying. So I dig up the original rack ears which I apparently still have, and try to flip things around, except the drive tray doesn't work the other way around somehow. What. Fine. I have a drill and a file. Sorted. While I'm at it, I splice an INA219 current sensor into the power connection for funzies and hook it up to the BMC's I2C bus. I then root the BMC so I can access it. So then I set about setting up Debian on it on a mirrored pair of Intel enterprise SSDs with encrypted ZFS. The board claims to support UEFI booting. This was determined to be a lie. Whatever. A problem for later. I put GRML (which is my new favorite rescue "CD" since it also has aarch64 builds available) on a flash drive, remove the case from the false drive, solder it to a motherboard header cable, and plug it into the internal USB hub I at some point added to the case. Boots fine, but only as a BIOS drive. I do a manual ZFS setup and debootstrap install, then I fuck around with GRUB for... a while... and eventually get it working on a system partition I've set up mirrored with mdadm (metadata v1.0 - at the end of the partition). Then comes the part where I get ZFSBootMenu working with SSH unlock. ZFSBootMenu is intended to boot via UEFI, but as I said, that doesn't work, but that's what GRUB is - I can chainload. Eventually that works, but I cannot manage to type the passphrase via the janky BMC's Java IPKVM. Fine. I have a file server I already set up SSH unlock with, but that means I'll have to build my own ZFSBootMenu files. After a while, I finally get that working, only to be immediately prompted for the passphrase a second time (on the screen, via the IPKVM, where I keep failing to type it, and it takes abour 90 seconds to check because I cranked up pbkdf2 iterations) when Debian starts. Right, need to bake the key into the encrypted initramfs that ZFSBootMenu loads. More chroot bullshit. I get that working, and Debian shits a brick and drops into a root shell because it can't find /sbin/init. Apparently I needed to install systemd-sysv for that. So I sigh, boot back into the GRML environment, mount the chroot for the fifteenth time, run the apt install, and rebuild the initramfs. I unmount everything, cross my fingers, and type reboot. The janky Java IPKVM refreshes. BIOS POSTs. GRUB chainloads ZFSBootMenu. The SSH unlock actually works perfectly. The boot process finally gets past the init stage, and a beautiful flood of green [ OK ] messages starts cascading down the screen. The login prompt finally appears. I go to type my username, but the BMC drops the connection again. I frantically reload the applet, but instead of the console, the screen glitches out, showing a live camera feed of my street just as a yellow car pulls up outside. I whistled for a cab and when it came near, the license plate said 'Fresh' and it had dice in the mirror. If anything I could say that this cab was rare, but I thought 'Nah, forget it, yo, holmes, to Bel-Air!' I pulled up to the house about seven or eight, and I yelled to the cabbie, 'Yo holmes, smell ya later!' I looked at my domain, I was finally there, to sit on my throne as the Heir of Bel-Air.

🧻 This tutorial is designed for #openwrt users and #pihole / #unbound users looking for a clean way to protect your LAN's DNS. This tutorial used a dedicated vlan/subnet with 4 Wyze v4 cams but/and can easily be extended to any IoT devices one chooses. There are three types of actions covered in this tutorial:

- Hijacking plain-text udp 53 and udp 853 DNS requests
- Hijacking tcp 853 (DoT) requests
- Dropping DoH requests for specified upstream DNS ips

📜 I hope people find this tutorial helpful. Feedback and comments are welcome. For those seeking assistance and/or if you want to chat about setup or other Linuxy stuffs, feel free to swing by the GNU/Linux Club Matrix over at https://matrix.to/#/#introductions:gnulinux.club

@krans Excellent question for the #homelab @homelab community!

IMO:
- Set boundaries on what you are going to do with it, on a scale of: Personal-NAS -> family-ISP -> AV platform -> mini supercomputer system (eg: ML training).
- This will give an idea of scale: one machine or a rack of 'em?
- That determines software a bit, such as RAID array or cluster file system...

Family-ISP here: One Dell T20 tower server, soon to be replaced with a much smaller Beelink Me Pro NAS, NetBSD+services.

There seems to be some interest, so I'm going to stream at ~4ish UK time on Twitch (sorry, don't have the energy to figure out a new platform today).

Repeating the rough plan:

• Hook up the Pi with a TTL serial cable, Ethernet, and power it through a relay board.
• Build a minimal U-Boot that chainloads a full U-Boot over serial, flash that to the SD card
• Build a full U-Boot (with my patches) that sets up netconsole and loads a signed FIT image with kernel, initramfs, and maybe devicetree from my TFTP server
• Cross-compile a Linux kernel and modules for the Pi
• Statically (musl) cross-compile BusyBox (with patches) for the Pi
• Statically (musl) cross-compile Dropbear for the Pi
• Statically (musl) cross-compile rsync (and whatever dependencies it has) for the Pi
• Statically (musl) cross-compile gpsd for the Pi
• Statically (musl) cross-compile chrony for the Pi
• Statically (musl) cross-compile my temperature logger for the Pi
• Script up something to build the initramfs
• Set up runit as the init system and script an overlayfs setup
• Iterate until it works properly.

• Build a full U-Boot (with my patches) that sets up netconsole and loads a signed FIT image with kernel, initramfs, and maybe devicetree from my TFTP server

My homelab. 3 Lenovo Tiny PCs in a 10" rack with a network switch, patch panel and 4 port KVM.

My #NAS rebuild is entering its 4th week. 3 shows daily, but it can't last! Get tickets while you still can.

The number of mistakes I have made in this is embarrassing in and comical. Here's a small sampling. This is how one keeps oneself humble: openly admit the stupid shit.

1. I had a really shitty Molex to SAS/SATA power adapter. Drives weren't getting enough power.
2. I managed to stick not one, but TWO SATA drives into a 6-drive array with 4 SAS drives. So I had SAS 12G/s drives, SAS 6G/s drives, and SATA 6G/s drives all in the same #TrueNAS array. You can do that!? Holy shit, I guess you can!
3. I wasn't doing burn-in testing on used, crappy disks before putting them into service. Pay me now, or pay me later. Either take the hours and hours to test it now, or spend the hours and hours dealing with a failure later.
4. I had both 4K logical sector and 512b logical sector drives in the same array. This, it turns out, is no big deal for TrueNAS / #ZFS. It just sets ashift=12 and you never have to think about the difference.

There is some good news. My backups work! I have lost no data at all, despite clownshoes system administration.

LFMF y'all. Learn from my fail.

My Jellyfin server works like a charm at home but it's very buggy remotely. I see OpenVPN sucking 20% of CPU and ffmpeg at 10%. Tomorrow, I'll move the instance to a more beefy server with a 3060 Ti to offload transcoding and it has a more powerful CPU. But the data disks are on USB. If that doesn't work, I'll create a second Jellyfin instance in the remote LAN directly to have full bandwidth.

I'm having NAS fun with failing drives and such. My #TrueNAS is a much bigger mess than I realised. I had a bunch of drives fail at the same time. It has caused me to look very carefully at each drive, its specs, and how it is behaving. It is shocking that it works at all. I have made embarrassing errors that I"ll admit after I've fixed them. 😀

Nothing with multi-TB NASses is fast. (at least none of MINE are). So replacing drives, resilvering, replacing, resilvering, etc. will take days.

I have dead drives I need replacing AND I have live drives that need to be replaced once it's safe to do. Ugh.

#selfhost #homelab

First off, how many drives do you think are in the box? Since the right answer has to be in the list, I put a lot of options in to raise the difficulty a bit.

#selfhosting #homelab #selfhost

Ok. It's always fun to post stuff like this here, because there will be some #selfhosting afficionado who replies "You are like little baby. This is what real man has." But here goes.

When hard drives die on me, I don't throw them away and I don't take them to the county e-waste dropoff. There's a company nearby that will take them, certify that they destroy them, and dispose of the waste properly. So I have this box in my garage that accumulates dead drives until I'm ready to go drop them off. It's getting kinda full.

When I went to add a couple to the box tonight, I took an inventory. Wanna guess some stats about the box of dead drives? Remember that some of these are old enough to vote. Others are old enough to walk to school. None are in diapers.

Here are some fun polls related to all my dead drives. First, a couple photos. Polls will be in replies.

#homelab #selfhost

Alt...

Photo of a cardboard box with a bunch of hard drives neatly stacked. On top are 2 2.5 inch drives that are Seagate 1.8 terabytes and a Hitachi SAS drive that is 4 terabytes.

Alt...

A more jumbled photo of the same box of hard drives. In this case you can see a wide variety of 2.5 inch drives and 3.5 inch drives. They're at angles and stuff to make it a bit easier to see just what the variety is like.

This is streetmentioner.dmz.icant.alt. It knows what time it is because it knows what time it isn't. It calculates this by un-becoming the time it previously will be. The local daemon, chrony, then applies a corrective slew to drive the temporal state from a time that it isn't, toward a present that is progressively less absent.

#homelab #ntp

A close-up, vertical photograph of a Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 2 enclosed in a clear, transparent plastic case. Attached to the main board's GPIO pins is a blue expansion board labeled 'Raspberry Pi GPS Board Rev 2.5'. This add-on board features a silver uBlox MAX-M8Q GPS module, a small coin cell battery, and a gold SMA connector with a black coaxial antenna cable attached. Several status LEDs are illuminated, including glowing red and green lights on the GPS board, and bright red and yellow lights near the USB and Ethernet ports of the main Raspberry Pi.

Kubernetes (and k3s) is a damn headache.

So many moving parts and pitfalls.
So easy and quick to seriously mess up.
So difficult and time-consuming to repair.

Thousands of hours of my life spent babying a kubernetes homelab. Little actual usefulness produced. I don't want this kind of life.
Instead I want to put less time and effort towards tending digital infra, and more time towards organizing community around that digital infra; so our communities can move away from big tech.

Do y'all have suggestions for FLOSS k3s alternatives?

For my use case, it needs to:
- run distributed on a cluster of old linux computers
- run linux containers
- be able to schedule workloads to specific nodes, and reschedule if the node drops off
- be resilient to nodes dropping off and rejoining (both cluster, apps and databases should be fine)
- have deterministic configuration / use git as a source of truth for cluster config and app config. I like the nix method (compute derivation in isolation, only deploy if it will work, immutable) better than the ansible method (commit changes directly to the live system, try to roll back if something breaks. Mutable)
- be easier than k3s
- be more resilient to cluster admin screwups than k3s

Nice to have:
- self-healing
- simple disaster recovery
- geo-distribution
- delay-tolerance
- tolerance towards low inter-node bandwidth
- ability to use transport-agnostic p2p networking (like reticulum)

Your suggestions are very welcome

I have only been using #FreeBSD more regularly now for the past couple months. One of its well known features is the clean separation of the base system and third party packages. Without a lot of experience, I just accepted it and figured that's their engineering choice, whatever, no big deal. And I kept using it.

And then fast forward to this past weekend when I installed #Debian on a spare server. When I had to configure something (I forgot what it was at this point and it's irrelevant) I went to /etc.

And that's when it hit me. /etc is just a dumping ground for config files. The total lack of distinction between base and third party was a total mess and, honestly, a nuisance.

The cleaner design really does make for a better learning tool and helps build a mental model of how the OS functions.

Yup, I can definitely say I prefer the FreeBSD way! 😀

Do you use #OpenZFS? Do you ship a product or service with #ZFS in it? Do you work on a storage- or filesystem-related project and are interested in how ZFS could make it better? Are you interested in the future of software-defined storage?

If any of these are you, you should consider presenting at the OpenZFS User and Developer Summit 2026! Our CfP is open until September 11, and we'd love to hear from you!

This morning I tested my backup recovery in my #homelab @homelab

I restored FreshRSS into a separate namespace to avoid conflicting with the live deployment.

* Velero restored the k8s resources and the app volumes (extensions)
* Barman (CNPG) rebuilt the database from its own backup
* I logged into FreshRSS, checked my data, and everything worked as expected

Restoring is the only way to know a backup works!

IT WORKS!

Radxa ROCK 5 ITX booting GRUB -> ZFSBootMenu -> Debian with native encrypted and mirrored ZFS root filesystem on dual SATA SSDs.

Single passphrase entry.

The last piece was adding rootdelay=15 to the kernel command line since the SATA controller is a little slow to initialize.

#embedded #homelab #linux #zfs

I've been spending a lot of my time building software with #FreeBSD's Ports system. Sure, I could just install packages but Ports is an incredible learning experience. Poudriere especially.

It's definitely not as straightforward as initially thought and builds will fail for various reasons, but....I haven't had this much fun troubleshooting in a long time.

One question I do have for the folks in the room is:

When it comes to the frequency of pulling down new versions of the Ports tree via git pull, how frequently do people recommend?

The Handbook does not mention it and it's definitely an important operations-related task.

#RunBSD #homelab #learning #tech #unix #BSD

I have Debian with ZFS native encrypted rootfs booting on a Radxa ROCK 5 ITX. The only remaining issue is that the passphrase isn't passed from ZFSBootMenu to Debian's initramfs, so it has to be entered twice. Should be fixable.

#embedded #homelab #linux #zfs

I'm morally obligated to write up a blog post about chain booting the Radxa ROCK 5 ITX with a zfs native encrypted root filesystem via EDK2 -> Grub 2 EFI -> ZFSBootMenu, aren't I?

sigh

I tried connecting the dead Intel D3-S4610 480GB SSD I have into my new USB bridge. Power light turns on, the turns right back off.

It was working fine six months ago, not sure what happened to it.

My multimeter doesn't show a short on the external pins, I made a brief attempt at board level diagnostics and then decided it wasn't worth the effort.

Free to anyone willing to pick it up around Liverpool Street station in London.

#homelab

I bought four Intel D3-S4610 480GB SSDs on eBay.

Three from some dude for £55 each, and one from a refurbisher for £70.

The £55 drives were pretty much prestine, the £70 drive had logged over three petabytes of writes and showed 27% lifetime remaining.

Also, I now have a USB-C SATA bridge that can issue ATA Security commands.

#homelab

Trying to get Debian to boot on my Radxa ROCK 5 ITX with a mirrored and encrypted ZFS root filesystem.

Current status:

EDK2 boots UEFI GRUB, with working serial console

UEFI GRUB boots ZFSBootMenu, with working serial console

ZFSBootMenu imports pool and accepts the passphrase, but then fails to find the kernel.

This feels like progress?

I'm considering self-hosting Pocket ID to use as an OIDC identity provider for various other self-hosted services. It's small and simple and easy to understand, but there's a big gap: high availability. If I set up an instance on a machine somewhere, and that machine dies, every service using it as an IdP is temporarily inaccessible until the situation is cured.

How do other self-hosters address this situation? I understand at some point there are single points of failure, but I'd like to avoid this being one.

One of my repositories on my self-hosted forgejo instance is being hit by Anthropic crawlers. They have an infinite loop to download a tar archive of the repository leading to somewhat like 200GB of archives. My backup process struggled to send snapshots remotely on my 6 Mbps upload line. I've made the repository private. And now I'm considering putting Anubis in front of the service.

I have a #FreeBSD #VM set up in my #homelab for #Poudriere and #Ports. I've dabbled in the Ports system in the past - it's a useful feature, but there's a lot of work in manually managing builds, especially for n=1 systems. Still, it didn't stop me from wanting to use it.

First impressions with Poudriere? Wow, this makes life so much easier. In the context of #IT #Operations, whoa...this goes well beyond just automating builds in dedicated jails, Poudriere now becomes the enterprise package management repo system.

Wicked sick.

What's the point of having a home lab designed to solve problems but you end up having more problems than the ones that it should solve?

Decision made to uninstall one of the three storage servers at my in-laws. No matter how much electricity it costs, even if it costs a kebab a year, if it seems useless, they will always challenge the cost.

I'm pretty sure that the second storage server at my dad's will retire too for the same reason anytime soon.

In 2024, I went to LA to give a talk about how I made my own cloud storage to backup my pictures, documents, but also the ones of my family. I have chosen Seafile but it didn't work as expected. It filled the disk of my dad. At that time, I was suggested to try Nextcloud.

Today's the day, after 2 years. I've set up the latest docker image, spawned a PostgreSQL database, created some users, directories and uploaded files. Everything went well.

Then I started to install the mobile app to sync pictures from my phone and the desktop app to sync my documents. And things got spicy. The mobile app has uploaded 1200 files in... a day, with hundreds of errors I had to dismiss. The desktop app has uploaded 6 files in an afternoon, out of 1700, then stopped with failure. Why can't we have the performance of rsync with the user fiendly interface of nextcloud?

well well well... had to bump this instance to 4.6.x but it required #ruby 3.3.x which does not come natively with #Ubuntu 24.04

Against what i normally do, I did upgrade the server to 26.04 BEFORE the .1 usual update.

All went well, then had to fk about a bit with the new ruby version on the old instance.

Done all this on a #proxmox backup clone and now I am posting this to a newly updated #mastodon v4.6.3

"Homelabs" are where people set up and run their own physical servers at home. It's the most difficult way to self-host services, but also gives you total control over the server.

If you've got a homelab or are interested, you can follow one (or both) of the homelab discussion groups:

🌱 !@homelab (in English)

🌱 !@homelab_de (in German)

After you follow, the group's posts will start showing up in your timeline. You can post to a group by mentioning it in your own posts.

Friday is update time for my homelab and public servers. Because, should something fail, I have the weekend to fix it. But, as always, nothing failed. All 9 RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) servers got their `dnf update`, followed by a `reboot`. This time the security updates included important nginx fixes, moderate coreutils stuff. Also a emu-kvm bugfix. All is good, machines and services are up and running again. 20 minutes of well invested time. Coffee next :)

I upgraded Grafana from v12 to v13 and the new unified storage migration for dashboards/folders was a pain in the ass to debug.

If you run Grafana with a hardened securityContext like `readOnlyRootFilesystem: true`, it can fail because backend plugins need writable temp space.

Fix: mount an emptyDir on /tmp.

But I'm not a big fan of that.
