My own approach is to run vm/lxc of SSDs that’s are hosted on proxmox directly.
Then I have a truenas with Nas storage. I mount that through SMB to proxmox and pass the different dirs into the vm/lxc that need them.
SSD are much better performance for vm/lxc.
Edit: even running the Nas as a vm i would mount it with SMB, making it easy to spilt them up later if you want. Also I have 10gbit netcards between the nas and proxmox.
Install proxmox, and play around with Linux containers, if it goes wrong just delete it and start over. Also installing change detection is quite easy using helper scripts: https://helper-scripts.com/scripts?id=Change+Detection
Just curious, is there anything like that for Facebook? Facebook groups specifically.
I’ve been using proxmox mainly with lxc containers for years. I gave an lxc running docker and portainer, for a few services I have running in docker.
I wouldn’t do it with anything critical it anything that needs mich performance or resources. But honestly most things don’t need that.
So is you like me just need a few docker containers and you already have everything else running - this can be a fine way to do it. Go for it :)
I’m not op, but: I have 10gbit between by truenas server and my proxmox server. The use case is faster access to files from my proxmox server.
1gbit is actually quite slow when we talk disk speed.
