I think I'm getting a grip on some of the basics here. I was trying to make a new mount for my NAS's docker data...separate drive and data pool. In the process of repeated attempts to get the SMB mount to get accepted, I noticed my NAS's storage isn't working as intended suddenly.
'cat /etc/pve/storage.cfg' shows the NAS still
'pvesm status' says "unable to activate storage...does not exist or is unreachable"
I thought it was related to too much resource usage, but that's not the case
Friend, thank you. My users and I greatly appreciate it. You just taught me how to solve one of the biggest problems I've been having. Just tested a movie through Jellyfin after using that cli.
Got any pointers for migrating config files from my NAS's docker containers to Proxmox's LXCs/VMs?
That's where I'm at, dude. I bought into the idea of Proxmox because I was led to believe that it makes docker deployment easier...but I'm thinking it would actually work if I just used a VM
I was struggling with it for a bit, but I got it working. Main concern (before I check transcoding/acceleration) is NAS file sharing. Huge headache. The host is connected, but the lxc and vms don't use it
I'd recommend most people start with the guides (I did, no regrets there). But expect to need to manually search for things sometimes because their restraints, by design, will block some "lesser quality" options. And if some flaw in the system is bothering you, you'll hopefully have enough experience under your belt to tailor your settings at that point
Came here to bring up Bazarr. Its the only *arr I haven't opened up since initial deployment and setup. It's only failed me on a couple of media items so far so that's like...99.9997% success without me even touching anything
Hosting isn't OS specific, and in my experience its more about docker. But as far OS goes, I'd say Debian or Ubuntu with the intent of moving onto something like Proxmox
Gluetun is a great example of "I changed nothing and it suddenly works". I've had to set up this exact docker container several times, and it usually takes me a week of retries until it chooses to work. I wish I had better advice for you
So I'm expecting a max of 5 concurrent users, but most wouldn't need transcoding. The real hiccup (brace yourself) is a 720p CRT and (assuming I get transcoding to work well) a 480p CRT. I'm pretty novice to PC specs outside of the "buy whatever you can afford for gaming" mindset, so any suggestions there are welcome. My budget is...whatever it takes to not regret the hardware years from now. My last build was $2k for reference
In hindsight, I didn't explain myself well enough. My plan is to use my current NAS as a NAS and little more; I'd like a machine with respectable hardware to handle what my NAS is currently running plus more.
My NAS has Jellyfin, arrs, all the stuff that goes with that, Pi-hole, and Homarr. And that's pushing its limits: everything has been slow, streams freeze, I've had containers quit, etc.
I'd like to get into other projects like Radicale, Mealie, ErsatzTV (old PC could handle it, NAS can't), CCTV, and more. But according to my resources, the NAS can't handle it
