Been looking for a nice ZFS UI for my NAS after ditching TrueNAS for PBS. This is developed by a former TrueNAS/iXsystems employee and looking pretty good. Set it up and it's pretty intuitive and helpful.

AI has been used for the UI but not the backend if I got it right (there's a rant about that in the README).

I'm running a fediverse instance in a Cloud VM. I would like to migrate the instance into my homelab, but there's another admin involved who needs to be able to create and restore from backups/snapshots. I would keep a cloud VM to tunnel to my local VM so I don't need to use my resident IP for the instance and some other reasons. That would also allow to give the other admin ssh from the cloud vm into the local vm without being able to touch my other stuff.

My initial thougt was to create some wrapper tool that can be triggered from inside the VM, just create a snapshot and restore from the latest, but I'd have to develop and run that one somewhere. Maybe there's a better solution like creating an actual Proxmox user for the other admin with permissions just for that vm? I don't want to expose Proxmox publicly of course, but there could be a solution via the cloud vm.

Looking for ideas here, keeping the hassle for the other admin low, while minimizing security risks.

Just wondering if anyone else feels like this. Personally I'm following this community for interesting stuff around Linux and I don't care too much for a lost percentage or another. Today's an extreme example with 5 articles (steam share, 2x "10%", 2x "not actually 10%). This horserace journalism is rarely doing any good imho.

What do you think?

It's been a while! Let us know what you're currently working on, what exploded, what cool stuff you found, or just brag that everything is running fine unattended.

I haven't been doing a lot, renovate auto upgrades for patches and sometimes minor updates work great so far. I got involved in my union to spin up a mastodon server soon, so there's a new project, but I already run mastodon so it shouldn't be much of a deal, I just need to get comfortable with the infrastructure. I also set up ntfy but only sent some test notifications and didn't configure any app yet - planned for Element Chat.

[Meta] I'm not sure how to apply the new tags. In the recent versions of this thread, people sometimes posted about their ollama setup or the like, but I'm not mentioning AI in the post body (except this meta thingy) and it shouldn't be much of the discussion, but it's an open post. Maybe curbstickle can chime in to let me know if I should apply one of them.

Paperless-ngx is an extensive document management system. 3.0.0 has just been released.

It seems from a user/admin perspective that a lot of obsolete stuff under the hood got removed and they did some performance stuff, but it's also full of AI features. There's too many changes to read them all though, I wonder if there's a blogpost or something somewhere summarizing the main changes.

Personally I'll stay with 2.X for some days at least to see what people say about the new version. I'm not interested to have AI parse my documents, the alrogirthmic auto tagging etc works quite well.

This community is not super active in general, but a good amount of posts are mastodon posts where people do something which is usually not related to Proxmox other than their VM being on it. These usually come from mastodon etc, don't spark discussions and usually get downvoted, which the authors don't notice since mastodon doesn't show that.

There's no specific rule for that (it seems like this community doesn't have rules at all), but I find it mostly annoying and wanted to vibe check what other subscribers of this community think about it. Maybe a rule could be implemented and those removed for being off topic?

I'm perfectly fine with mastodon users posting to this community, don't get me wrong. I just don't like using this community handle like a hashtag for everything that's barely seen proxmox relevance.

I run some services on machine A. I want to backup the data to machine B. It's around 40 gigabytes in thousands of small files. I would prefer to compress the data, but there's not enough space on machine A to keep the data twice (original + tar archive). I would like to avoid copying that many files via scp/rsync since it's taking forever and a bit fragile.

Any solutions on how to solve this? Is it possible to compress live on machine A and stream into the archive on machine B without the need to keep the big archive file on A?

Eventually, it's supposed to be automated and B has like the last 3 dailys, 1 weekly, 1 montly.

B can ssh into A.

Lots of layoffs ("re-evaluating our operational footprint") and switching to "agentic" processes. Target user is AI.

Anyone still hosting Gitlab?
