Wir berichten vom HA Meetup in Köln und blicken voraus auf die Maker Faire Ruhr. Andrej macht sich sein Leben als Wanderkünstler leichter und Thomas sagt dem Bufferbloat den Kampf an. Dazu werfen wir noch einen Blick auf HA 2026.2 und widmen uns dann, gut geladen, den Rantthemen.

Viel Spaß!

#Minilab: 3x HP Elitedesk G2 Mini (Core i5, 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD), Ubiquiti Flex Mini 2.5G, Rack: #DeskPi Rackmate T0. Netzwerk kommt von einer #UDMPro.

#Nextcloud: 1x Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny m920q (Core i5, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD). Darauf läuft #Proxmox, Nextcloud ist eine VM. Als Storage ist eine ältere Synology via NFS angebunden. Dort liegt auch die virt. HDD, auf der die Daten liegen.

Die erste Anprobe ist ganz ok. Ich würde gern jeden HP Mini in einen separaten #DeskPi Rackmount montieren, bin aber wahrscheinlich zu geizig. Auch bei der Stromversorgung bin ich mir noch nicht sicher. Es gibt eine 4-fach 10 Zoll Leiste von Digitus, aber ich fürchte, dass sie zu tief ist. #homelab #minilab

This weeks stupidity… I made a mini 5u HomeLab for my HomeAssistant and PiHole boxes that sit inside an Ikea storage crate.

Includes a Pi5 16GB, Pi 3b+, Pi Zero W2 and a Pimoroni Badger for stats.

I caught the #homelab let's get everything racked up bug in a 10' inch smallish rack. Then I started adding all the shit I was going to need... Don't forget that 1 psu power all the mini pc project you been wanting to do... Now I'm conflicted and thinking about abandoning the whole damn thing to save my marriage. 😆

This took me a bit to get right so I'm adding it here for me later

Aye! I was able to load up two load balancers on different nodes in the cluster. These two load balancers have keepalived between them so if one goes down the other pics up the ip.. These front end 2 caddy instances also on different cluster memebers. So I'm about to start shutting down loadbalancers to see if things stay up!!

Looks like keepalived screws up some metrics that the lb can no longer see. Need to work on that.

Ok After getting that off. There was a wonderful person who forked it and updated all of the go libraries to the current ones. So now It looks like I can authenticate to #LXD! I don't know if it's actually pulling the nodes based on the labels I gave it.. I still have one more to build.

Is anyone using #loadbalancers in their #homelab or is it all reverse proxies? Looking for something to do TLS termination and, ideally, make highly available. I tried doing this with #caddy and ehh it's not really working how I want to. I also think I didn't configure it correctly. Documentation is a little sparse.
