At the moment, almost everything runs as i want it to run on this setup. Storage is a tad slow, and i am still looking for a extra place to dump my stuff to as a backup, but that will happen soon enough. All “super” important data is ofcourse backed up, but i would really like a full mirror or my storage mount somewhere aswell. This is costly to do, so i am looking for solutions.
Other than that, i ended up ditching ovh due to their stupid support over something even more stupid. Not going to go into detail about that here, but i ended up with another host in Frankfurt at this point. How long will i stay here? Well, time will tell i guess. But at the moment, it seems all good.
Past week i have also setup a little java minecraft server for myself and a few friends to hang out. I have touced minecraft in the past, but never anything serious. My 5 year old kid also loved it – However due to his conditions (mainly low functioning autist), the most fun part for him was to spawn in different animals and just.. watch them. It made his day, so im all good for that. 🙂
I am a bit strangled on resources currently, but i can upgrade it at any time, so no worries here. I do have a usecase for a windows vps aswell for some specific tools i use from time to time, and i plan to run that in proxmox on the same server. I know, i know… All eggs in one basket and all that. But it is way simpler for me to manage it, and there are full exports of the server every 6 hours at the moment to offsite storage + my own “unlimited” storage mount. It will take me litterally less than 1 hour getting it up and running again somewhere else, and nothing i host is mission critical at all – It is mostly “good to have” stuff for myself, my family and a couple friends.
Also doing some finishing touches on a couple of other hosts around, including the one i am currently using. i will post those at a later time. I need to collect some more data and polish the articles before i want to publish them.
