You would have 12 GB ram shared over all the dockers. I think you will be fine. Unless everything will be used intensively continuously. But that’s my opinion. Just give it a shot, nothing to loose. Promox itself does not take so much. So if it it does not run in this setup you need different hardware anyhow.
I don’t like the solution of running docker next to proxmox, not in a vm, you want proxmox to respond even if the docker vm is busy/overloaded.
In terms of backup you should be good. I would skip that weekly local backup construction, not sure what that adds if the off site backup is working reliable. I’ld format that one and add proxmox to it and make proper use of it (like a second docker vm)
I’m using 2GB RAM at this moment, not accounting for Jellyfin and Nextcloud, and i don’t have info about their load because they’re on a windows server. That’s all running bare metal.
The offsite NAS is at my office, and is serving my office needs daily, i just added a backup of my home server to it.
Do you have any idea how much cores/ram should i leave to Proxmox?
None. Just use everything in the VM’s. Yes that’s over committing, but who cares if the lead normally is reasonable and you can watch the ’summary’ in pm to see how the system is doing. Stop worrying, grab the proxmox iso and have fun
Alright, yeah, i tend to overthink stuff to the point of not actually doing the thing i wanted. Thanks for the push!
