      I don’t run VMs directly on TrueNAS anymore but you should be able to get a DHCP reservation if your gateway is set up correctly in your TN Network panel. If not you’ll want to check your router to see if you’re having any issues there.

    So 4:2:2 video works as long as it is h.264 if you upgrade to Studio? Is this what I'm gathering?

      I didn’t have a UPS. I decided to switch to UniFi for simplicity + cloud management if needed.

      Hi, thanks for supporting the channel! I run LXCs for any service that sits directly on top of the system without another containerization system like Docker.

    • @johnstech7
      @johnstech7 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Daniel, Good morning! I’m actually still using the simple rules in UniFi and not the advanced ones. All it does is block any traffic from the IoT-Offline & Management network that heads to the WAN interface. This also blocks clients accessing on a VPN as well so I added another rule that allows the Proxmox hosts to hit the internet. For IoT Public it still has access to the internet but I block traffic if it’s starting from the IoT-Public VLAN to Default or Guest, but the other way to Public is allowed. Any other traffic from Public to Management or Offline is dropped. Guest also isn’t able to talk to those Management & Offline networks! Also multicast is enabled so devices on Untagged, IoT-Public and Guest can find the AirPlay devices that are available. This doesn’t require a firewall rule.

    I was looking at migrating to XCP-NG from Proxmox pretty heavily recently but ultimately decided to stay on Proxmox. I respect what the guys are doing on the XCP-NG/Xen Orchestra project. Both have their quirks and pros and cons. I like the backup solution slightly better on XOA but PBS is coming along pretty nicely. One pitfall I found on XCP-NG was performance issues when using an AMD Epyc CPU which is acknowledge by the team and they're digging in with AMD on it. No fault to them at all! I might look at it again sometime soon. Building from sources is kind of odd but there are other options like docker to run XOA instead of a VM on the host. At the end of it pick what is best for you. Interested to see future videos on Proxmox! Keep it up :).

    • @johnstech7
      @johnstech7 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Tristan! Thanks for your feedback on the video! I really appreciate it! I think XCP has a slightly older kernel compared to the modified proxmox version so I assume it would tie back to that. Don’t quote me on that though! You have a good point on using Docker for XOA. I’ll look into that instead of cloning my VM from XCP. Thanks!

I have been mentored by a some of the best engineers and architects, some of which have been working IT since the 80's and 90's. The people who have helped me progress my career the most, were the ones that told me: The most important skill you can have in IT isn't a specific software or programming language or hardware or tool. "The number one skill that you can have is adaptability." Solutions come and go and admins become fossils trying to manage dinosaur solutions if they don't evolve with the times. We need more videos like this, showcasing that if a solution doesn't work for the needs of the environment, switch the solution. There are a lot of admins in the industry that will spend company budget trying to make a solution work, that ultimately wastes time and money. This was a really good video with a lot of really good lessons from the home lab to enterprise.

    I will start and say that I think you don’t know how to use XCP-NG and most of the things you mentioned at the beginning means that you couldn’t make it work. I understand why you switch to Proxmox and you he advantage it comes with but , it doesn’t mean XCP doesn’t have proper backups natively or compile things that you mentioned- good luck in your journey and do your homework. I personally worked many years with Proxmox and switched to XCP because of the enterprise capabilities it came with

      Hi, thanks for watching the video! I know XCP is able to do backups and passthrough hardware! I just don’t want to manually compile Xen Orchestra while Proxmox has all of those features built in without a subscription. Also, I am running on some consumer micro PCs and those just don’t work that well for passing through USB ports in Xen..so that was another factor. I would frequently have to spin a VM for the deprecated XenCenter Windows client to run certain tasks just not available on XO just yet. I’m also running mostly Linux guests so I figured I may as well go with KVM. In an enterprise environment, I’d prefer XCP over Proxmox (if Nutanix KVM/AHV isn’t in the question) since I’d most likely be working with Windows guests (still not sure about how ready windows virtio drivers are) and less “sideways” tinkering required in the command line.

      That still doesn't fix the other points I have. I'm not bashing XCP, Proxmox just works better for my use case.

    How did you get jumbo frames to work on your MBP and what interface on the MBP are you using the jumbo frames with?

    • @johnstech7
      @johnstech7 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi there! I enabled Jumbo frames on my OWC 10GbE Thunderbolt adapter on my MBP in System Prefs -> Network -> (Interface) -> Details -> Hardware page. No special drivers/kexts needed. The NIC connects to my UDM Pro which also has jumbo packets enabled. I turned on switch exclusion so it has jumbo packets on the UDM only. The other device on the UDM is my TrueNAS Server (on the R740xd).

    Misleading title. You didn’t actually show the set up. All you did was show where to go to start the set up…

    Any updates on the car? Also, have you changed the head unit?

    • @johnstech7
      @johnstech7 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No real update, still stock! I experimented with some wireless CarPlay solutions that integrate into the rear mirror but those weren’t reliable for me. Not really interested in wired CarPlay especially when I can just mount my phone and get more functionality that way! My other concern is losing MDI (iPod) support, music info in the dash, the CD changer and it appears some GTIs suffer from battery drain from aftermarket radios.

    Hi, your video was recommended to me on my feed and I have to say nice video and breakdown! I've started my homelab journey about 6 months ago, so this was actually a nice review from a more realistic and reasonable setup that's similar to what I had in mind, as opposed really expensive and complicated setups from big channels, so I really appreciate this honestly and I look forward to your future videos! Tanks!
