Hydrian@dandrumheller Then, they'll get irritated when it doesn't have 5 9's of uptime.Then, you'll have #homeprod .
@dandrumheller The MAF (mate accepence factor) is the important step towards #homeprod .
Habe gestern aus Versehen meinen #wireguard --> #homeprod autotunnel hingebogen und frage mich wie ich ohne klar kommen konnte.
@brunty @neil I agree. I've been doing #homelab / #homeprod before that term even existed. I have #selfhosted email before both personally and professionally. I WON'T host pubic email. That doesn't mean I don't store my own email. I use #getmail to pull all my mail accounts into a selfhosted #IMAP server. This way if my mail server is inaccessable, the mail just sits on the remote mailboxes until my server is back up. I also don't have to maintain good IP reputaions and #SPF and #dkim records.
fraggLe!It will please everyone that's invested that the UPS in my #homeprod that needed batteries ages ago now has fresh batteries, estimated runtime is now one hour 45 minutes (down from less than 10 minutes before it gave up during the last outage).
I asked the person who gave it to me, this UPS is *ten years old* now, and it sat for two of those years powered off and dead, all on the original batteries, so fair play Eaton, I think it's done pretty well.
* Because the power required is often higher for big machines for idle time.
* If one machine dies, assuming they are equally distributed, you only have to find places for 33% of your services and not 100% of services.
* Same goes for configuration braking changes, 33% or 100% down.
Do you have #homeprod ? How much downtime with room mates / life mates accept?

I see, if I were you I would play a bit with zfs on the side and only then migrate anything #homeprod in your #homelab :D
And for off-site backups you can do simple sync/incremental backups. Borg and restic sound good, there are also some others but from all the similarly named tools I keep forgetting which ones were unreliable and should be avoided.
Wrt ZFS the biggest thing for me is the ability to snapshot and then move the snapshots around, clone into a new dataset etc. I just had a major scare because my whole camera/gallery storage was gone (rsync reporting "created directory /mnt/path/to/photos"). In the end it was a case of the dataset not being mounted properly but all the daily/weekly snapshots meant that I havent lost anything from my previous phone for example:
- `zfs clone pool/dataset@snapshot pool/cloned-dataset` and verify that my files are there.
- `zfs rollback ...@snapshot` to roll back.
Or hell, make changes to a clone and promote it to replace the origin/primary. At zero extra storage cost.
So, enough preaching! But #zfs is really great.
@train #Nextcloud Talk is mine. Everyone has an account. Just be prepared for #homeprod in whatever you choose.

I recently had a lot of issues with uptime, precisely since I moved flat
Turns out, supporting a 'big' Homeprod on a 5G link is not a very good idea
Especially because of latency, my remote Control Planes were getting kicked because healthchecks were taking too much time to complete
Buuuut now we are back to full blown Fiber, and a guaranteed fixed IP
Hopefully should remedy a lot of the previous issues I had pre-move related to uptime
