I run one huge media server, one backup, three mini optiplex server (one public, private, and local), and one off site.
- Is there a cheap Pi or something similar I could bring for the optiplex servers and then just let go of the others until I’m back?
- Do I just throw everything in a VPS except for local stuff?
I could put them in my parents house but then I couldn’t solve technical problems physically. That’s a good idea.
Thanks for the suggestion! You running containers?
Yeah, I’m currently running unraid on it because I wanted a hands-off maintenance experience.
While it’s nice to get started, I’m really missing even intermediate Docker features such as support for compose files (so that there is some grouping of main services with the database instance that supports it, etc). Still, it’s been working reliably for the year that I’ve had it.
