What’s up, what’s down and what are you not sure about?
Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.
I finally finished my first iteration of my Minilab including a very smooth migration from the old server yesterday so I can go to the service side of things again. I plan to get some kind of selfhosters VPN for external access to stuff that’s not exposed to the internet, I’ll have to investigate which one.
I’m still trying to get a good backup strategy. I am currently using Duplicati but I cannot get the before script execution to work. I will eventually look at Kopia.
What kind of hardware are you using for a mini lab? I want to switch from a raspberry pi 5 to a small form factor Intel based system so I can run Proxmox. I was looking at the Lenovo m920q or an Optiplex 79xx series machine.
Do you have any recommendations for backups or the hardware switch I mentioned?
