I have things scattered around different machines (a hangover from my previous network configuration that was running off two separate routers) so I’d probably look to have everything on one machine.
Also I kind of rushed setting up my Dell server and I never really paid any attention to how it was set up for RAID. I also currently have everything running on separate VMs rather than in containers.
I may at some point copy the important stuff off my server and set it up from scratch.
I may also move from using a load balancer to manage incoming connections to doing it via Cloudflare Tunnels.
The thing is there’s always something to tinker with and I’ve learnt a lot building my little home lab. There’s always something new to play around with and learn.
Is my setup optimal? Hell no. Does it work? Yep. 🙂
