Personally will be trying to transform my server which is currently in a fractal R5 case, into a small-ish Homelab rack, combined with all my network equipment. Will require complete relocation of all network equipment in the house as well as cables so it will be a bit of a project. Also on the lookout for a good quality rack so let me know if you have any recs. Still unsure if u want to do full width rack or mini. Part of me really want the UDM Pro from Unifi..

What are your goals and thing you want to accomplish during 2025?

Replace proxmox with incus.

Get VLANs working, proper IOT network isolation, and Nextcloud as my primary document storage. If that first one didn't bring down my homelab entry time I try I'd be more inclined.

I'm still in the middle of a K8s migration. It's overkill for a home user, but I want the upskilling.

I've got a QNAP NAS with self-managed linux for storage, and a MS-01 with an RTX A2000 for compute. They're connected over 10Gb SFP+. I'm more than half way done, especially considering I mostly know what I'm doing now.

I still need to figure out the idiomatically right way to schedule pods with their storage, but I got GPU workloads going recently. Next up is migrate the last of the docker-compose from the storage node.

I want to look into quadlets

Rebuilding my main router to work with 10gbe fiber that recently became available here. Although it is a tad expensive, so I am not actually sure yet if I will upgrade my contract.

[-] pimeys@lemmy.nauk.io 3 points 1 week ago

I am doing exactly the same as what the OP is doing. In addition to that, I will unify my beelink mini PC proxmox server and our old Intel atom NAS into one rack server with AMD EPYC, proxmox and truenas in a VM.

I sure hope our landlord and the Internet operator can agree on the operator finally bringing fiber cables to all apartments. Then I would have fast enough uplink to my homelab.

[-] Sunny@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 week ago

I'm begging for fiber too! It's 2025 gosh darn it 😁

[-] pimeys@lemmy.nauk.io 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah... So I'm in Berlin, and in Germany the internet operators finally are building fiber everywhere. The provider who lays the fiber to our street is Deutsche Telekom, and they promise to pay everything: laying the fiber, bringing it to our house and bringing the fiber to every apartment for a two year monopoly on fiber internet after which it's up for competition using their cables. What needs to happen next is our landlord (a Swiss company) and house management company to agree on these guys to come in, put little fiber dividers to every floor and drill a hole to the walls so we get the fiber cable to our apartment.

Of course this being Germany, they are very slow on agreeing on that, we might need to go to court and for sure we need to talk to our neighbors who own their apartments to push them a bit. I'd expect us to get the connection maybe before end of 2025. But eventually it will happen...

Top 1 for me would be a strong backup mechanism, and by that I mean something that is tested. Currently I have restic in place but I don't even know if in case of a disaster the backups are ok.

And considering my lack of time, I would be happy with just that.

It would be to replace my 4-bay Synology DS918 NAS with something with more drive bays and 10 Gbit connectivity

[-] pezhore@infosec.pub 1 points 1 week ago

I love my Synology DS1618 - it's a bit older now, but the 10Gbps is a delight.

[-] agile_squirrel@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

I'm designing a modular rack shelf mounted 3D printed server case. I hope to finish it by moving my backup server to the new case.

[-] pezhore@infosec.pub 2 points 1 week ago

I want to move my 4x SFP+ from their current MicroTik switch to my new Brocade. Then I'm very strongly debating running both VM and Ceph over the same 10Gbps connections, removing the ugly USB Ethernet dongles from my three Proxmox Lenovo M920q boxes.

After that? Maybe look at finally migrating Vault off my ClusterHat to Kubernetes.

[-] GreenSofaBed@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

Move from Ubuntu to Debian and add more cameras to frigate.

[-] Tywele@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

I want to improve my notifications. With that I mean emails coming from the server when updates are available when something happens during my rsync backup routines or just when they are completed and so on. Right now I don't really know when something is happening just when the server is not working anymore.

At some point I need to migrate off Hyper-V. Probably to Proxmox.

Ugh. I don’t wanna.

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

Really a few things. What I am looking to do is create a highly dynamic system where I can easily deploy something by kicking off some automation. To do this I am first creating a base Ceph shared filesystem. This will be mounted in all VMs so that I can use Ansible to quickly spin up Docker containers via docker compose. This will make it much easier to dynamically create resources and services since I won't need to worry about all the underlying components. I simply kick off the automation for any changes. I already have the automation to create new VMs.

I'm currently saving up to buy a fractal design node 804 to build a NAS with 4 drives within. Also trying to create some more reliable backups using said NAS.

Tailscale is amazing! I've tried many different solutions but always keep coming back to Tailscale for it's simplicity.
