Hey, I’m in the way of building my homelab already thinking of some apps to run on it…
Truenas in a VM, a Debian VM to run docker. And on this point, do you a have some docker apps recommandations?
Write down all the apps that worth looking at them 👇👇
I would prefer not using this this way… Personally I would set up TrueNAS and then a Debian VM on proxmox with all the docker with the CLI (I don’t really need a management tool… Or maybe Rancher)
If you are somewhat comfortable with the cli you could install proxmox as zfs then create datasets off the pool to do whatever you want. If you wanted a nicer gui to manage zfs you could also install cockpit on the proxmox hypervisor directly along with the zfs plugin to manage the datasets and share them a bit easier. Obviously you could do all of that from the command line too.
Personally I use proxmox now where before I made use of Debian. The only reason I switched was it made vm/lxc management easy. As for truenas it’s also basically Debian with a different gui. These days I’m more focused on optimization in my home lab journey. I hope you enjoy the experience however you begin and whatever applications you start with.
I’ve heard of zabbix but what’s the difference with Grafana? If I’ve understand Tubearchivist is a self-hosted “YouTube app”? And how useful is a XMPP server?
Zabbix collect all the data (for exemple, cpu usage, memory usage, disk space etc…)
Grafana take this data from zabbix and display it, You can create dashboards with only the useful data you need!
TubeArchivist is indeed “selfhosted youtube” but more importantly it’s more of a Youtube Backup, if you watch a lot of content on there, like me, you know that videos gets deleted all the time, and archiving videos that you like is really important (at least if some videos means a lot to you, like me)
And a XMPP server is just a self-hosted messaging/calls service that works like email and is decentralized. I’m not that familliar with it yet, but i’m loving the concept
I’ll throw my vote in for Jellyfin as well. My wife had a big dvd and Blu-ray collection and it streams perfectly over local network. If you’re into dev at all, I use mine to as a dev environment and Jenkins container to test and deploy my commits
