Vom 12. bis 15. Juli waren wir nach einem katastrophalen Fehler in unserem #Ceph-Cluster weitestgehend offline und mit #PostgreSQL-Recovery beschäftigt.
Die Ursachen und Lessons learnt haben wir nun in einem Blog-Post zusammengefasst – recht technisch für alle Interessierten, mit vielen Erläuterungen und schiefen Bildchen 🤪 :

@tteichler und @nik hatten ein spannendes Wochenende!
Managing jails and Bhyve VMs is easy once you know the commands on the CLI.
Cronos to the rescue, cbsd web interface: Jails, Bhyve Vms creation, rename, etc. Easy peasy.
And access to the console via VNC on the fly.
It can be installed from an image as full blown freebsd system with Clonos on top.
The install method on topof an existing Freebsd system (14.1) did not completely work as intended.
A very good alternative to proxmox on top of linux

⚡ Proxmox vs FreeBSD: Which Virtualization Host Performs Better? | @stefano
｢ I migrated VMs without notifying clients, and they contacted me a few days later to inquire if we had new hardware because they noticed better performance ｣

XCP-NG looks more enterprise alike and also works pretty well. Live migrations with shared NFS datastore works without any issues. But setting up #orchestra feels somehow... Anyone using XCP-NG in production?
* Used Resources: Rebalances VMs for the optimal resource usage by their currently used resources for efficiency
* Assigned Resources: Rebalances VMs by their max. assigned resources to guarantee the resources (avoid overprovisioning)

(Re)Balance VM workloads across nodes in Proxmox clusters! I wrote this for my #BoxyBSD project in the past and thought this could be helpful.
Project: https://github.com/gyptazy/ProxLB
Wrote one for BoxyBSD that uses the proxmox api of a cluster to rebalance VMs across all nodes within a cluster for a better resource and vm workload distribution.
Nodes and VMs can be filtered (e.g. you have special nodes (like NVMe-oF, PCI passthrough, cpu pinning,…) or VMs that make use of this of have some special configurations that should not be moved.
Rebalancing can be done by memory, storage (makes only sense on local storage) or CPU usage.
The rebalancing tries to balance all nodes in a most equal way.

However, currently I'm playing around with some completely different things like #Harvester - running #SLE with #Kubernetes, #Longhorn and #KubeVirt. I spawned a three node cluster just in minutes and could use live migrations.
Multi tenant solutions are a bit more tricky and the #Rancher integration is not that easy as expected and took additional 30 minutes. Currently, I like the approach of #HCI and also the more modern one which feels more like infrastructure as a code. I'm aware that this might not fit all scenarios and use cases and it's just having a look aside of the typical solutions. But it looks pretty promising and interesting.

Thank you very much! I'm really happy to see how everything works out with the BSD Cafe.
We have passionated people and developers that were brought together by the BSD Cafe, sharing the same mindset, having the same ideas - boosting up the community. Especially the #BSD one and also trying to attract #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD and all the other awesome flavours to beginners. We see people working and developing new things to make beginners life easier, using #BoxyBSD service for this (like @harshad@sharma.io does with #Freeway), syncing in the #BSDCafe Matrix chat and discussing those things in the #BSDPub calls with the community. Providing deep detailed information, like you did yesterday with your blogpost where #Proxmox on #Linux got compared to #bhyve on #FreeBSD (both running on #ZFS, but also #LVM/#EXT4) are the important things to boost the visibility of BSD! Also keeping up and together the community is very important. Without this place, many things would have never happen!
Everyone puts his time and efforts in pushing the community, to make it a little bit better by each day.
So, thank you and everyone here!
Proxmox vs FreeBSD: Which Virtualization Host Performs Better?
Since migrating many servers from Proxmox to FreeBSD, we have consistently felt that the VMs are more responsive. It's time to conduct some concrete tests.

Good morning #FreeBSD, #NetBSD & #OpenBSD fans!
The #BoxyBSD service is live for quite a while and it got a little bit silent - things just run and work. Are you missing anything?
Do you have any wishes that could help you to boost up your personal knowledge or your opensource project?

Today I pondered something: Proxmox and others boast native ZFS integration as one of their strengths. Many Proxmox features rely on ZFS's unique capabilities, and many setups are built around them. If Oracle were to send a cease and desist tomorrow, how would the situation unfold?

#homelab Hello there. I have bought a beelink s12 pro. It has 16g memory on board. However, I have heard that a #intel n100 can run with 32G.
Who has an intel n100 or beelink s12 pro and can tell me what 32G memory works well with it?
Also I heard rumours it will run 32G but can never use more than 16G.
Any tips apreciated and please boost!
