Has anyone messed around with NonRAID?

Reply in thread

The selling point of unraid is that you can mix and match different disk sizes and it figures out a (good, efficient?) way to handle them even as you grow a pool. You're not going to have a good time with a 1TB drive, a 2 TB drive and a 15 TB drive using zfs, unraid doesn't care... (Using and preferring zfs myself, by the way; this is heresay.)

Managing podman quadlets, users subids and such

Are you using one (system) user per quadlet? (Why?) Each of my quadlets is owned by the same (non-root) user and the containers are rootless. In that case, podman deals with (sub)id-allocation. selinux-labels take care of volume scopes and podman networks are as isolated as possible. Seems enough for me; never even considered using different users in that case.

Nextcloud (PHP) vs OpenCloud (Go)

Deployment of NC on kubernetes/docker (and maintenance thereof) is super scary. They copy config files around in dockerfile, e.g., it's a hell of a mess. (And not just docker: I have one instance running on an old-fashioned webhosting with only ftp access and I have to manually edit .ini and apache config after each update since they're being overwritten.) As the documentation of OCIS is growing and it gets more features, I might actually change even the larger instances, but for now I must consider it as not feature complete (since people have expectations from nextcloud that aren't met by ocis and its extensions). Moreover, I have more trust in the long term openness of nextcloud as opposed to owncloud, for historical reasons.
