Other options are LUKS with Tang and Clevis, or LUKS with SSH and Dropbear.
Sorry, I have no details.
Edit: Tang/Clevis are local software and a network server that provide keys. If stolen, won’t boot.
SSH and Dropbear make it so you can login to provide keys.
What features do you want?
What should my first configurations and preparations
Write on paper your goals. Write on paper a list of your systems and what needs to speak with what.
Then pick the most important or simplest device and get it connected the way you want.
At home, colors Whatever color the purpose is.
Look up what system vendors will sell for that CPU. If they sell 256 GiB, then you are likely good.
I don’t find I ever upgrade after the first couple months. I would max it out or get multi CPU boards wherI cannot afford to max it out.
Ah, thank you!
I appreciate you efforts to both explain to me and contribute to open source.
The goal of Goblins is to be able to create regular programs that can be distributed across networked machines/servers/clients easily without having to architect your code explicitly to handle the details of communication across the network.
Ah! So a new MPI!
Any big packages, like AMBER or CHARMM, picking it up?
I tend to buy two at a time. Some are months old, others three years old.
Professionally, I have seen drives over 10 years always on at low utilization without issue. (The data was easily replaceable.)
crammed in to my case in a hideous way
Heat is a killer. Check them regularly.
Mainly, I’m wondering if I should migrate /home/ to my RAID array, or leave /home/ where it is and create a new directory on the RAID array.
Leave home where it is. Symlink to important directories on RAID.
Makes it easier to mess with the RAID if it doesn’t make logging in hard.
For roll your own, FreeBSD and ZFS on any old desktop with 4 SATA ports is pretty nice and cheap. Built in encryption, NFS, SMB services. Navidrome has install directions for serving music. Pretty secure by default.
I like reminding people that with every new technology, the old one is still around. The new gets most of the attention, but the old is still kicking. (We still have wire wrapped programs kicking around.)
You are all good. Spend your limited attention on other things.
“Easier” and “simpler” are in the eye of the beholder.
A different way to approach it is to limit the failure domains. If this breaks how sad are you?
I would separate storage from the rest. Networking stuff together may be fine. Home assistant depends on how dependent on it your household is.
I have not had an issue mixing and matching drives in a hardware or software RAID. Just needs to be at least as big as the previous.
I have had issues with non-vendor drives in Dell and/or HP systems.
(I am a pro, but not your pro.)
Yes! It is great.
Any more I reencode for local streaming to my TV.
Google has laid off their Python Foundation team and asked them to train their replacements who will be in the Munich office.
There was a nonfederated one. Elk talk, or Oxes. Anyway, most useful on college campuses. Pointing this out for reseach.
Sounds great!
Edit: It was yikyak!
Have you tried a restore? A non-differential smap snapshot should be fine, but differential snapshots would make a restore difficult to impossible.
A zfssend and zfsrestore with a differential snapshot would be more traditional. If one put mbuffer in the middle, it would even be fast.
Thank you. That was very clear. I look forward to seeing the results of the developments.
Sure, but not one of those is a reason to use it.
The joke is electricity and Linux.
The real answer is the free hardware.
My main reliable is from 2008? It cannot do modern virtualization due to not having the CPU instruction sets.
