Mika<p>I've managed to get <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OpenMediaVault" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenMediaVault</a> working on my <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/RaspberryPi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RaspberryPi</a> (running <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Raspbian" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Raspbian</a><span> Lite) and the performance seems pretty impressive! Despite relying on USB storage for the SSDs.<br><br>This is my first time running a </span><a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/NAS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NAS</a> on the Pi, on <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OMV" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OMV</a>, not using <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/ZFS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ZFS</a> or <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/RAID" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RAID</a> but rather an <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Unraid" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Unraid</a> like solution, 'cept, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/FOSS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FOSS</a> called <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/SnapRAID" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SnapRAID</a> in combination with <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/mergerfs" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mergerfs</a> (the drives themselves are simply <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/EXT4" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EXT4</a><span>).<br><br>So far, honestly, so good. I got 2x 1TB SSDs for data, and another 1TB SSD for parity. Don't have a backup for the data themselves atm, but I do have a scheduled backup solution (</span><a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/RaspiBackup" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RaspiBackup</a>) setup for the OS itself (SD card). It's also got <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Timeshift" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Timeshift</a><span> for creating daily snapshots.<br><br>I'm not </span><i>out of the woods</i> yet though, cos after this comes the (somewhat) scary part, deploying <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Immich" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Immich</a> on the Pi lol. I really could just deploy it in my <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Proxmox" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Proxmox</a> <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/homelab" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#homelab</a>, and I wouldn't have to worry about system resources or hardware transcoding, etc. but I really wanna experiment this 'everything hosted/contained in 1 Pi' <i>concept</i>.</p>
Mika<p>Installing <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OpenMediaVault" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenMediaVault</a> on the <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/RaspberryPi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RaspberryPi</a> so far... has been kind of a headache, despite how it always seemed 'simple' on other people's videos... Kinda wondering if I'm better off, just, setting up <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/SnapRAID" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SnapRAID</a>, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/mergerfs" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mergerfs</a>, and <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Samba" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Samba</a>/<a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/CIFS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CIFS</a><span> manually.<br><br>I don't think I need </span><a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OMV" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OMV</a> specifically, using the Pi as a simple <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/SMB" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SMB</a> share that I also happen to run some <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Docker" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Docker</a> services on, I just thought it'd be neat to finally try out OMV, after having only used and been familiar with <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/TrueNAS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a> all this while.</p>
mona 🌺<p>This is a longshot, but do I know anyone who's familiar with <a href="https://corteximplant.com/tags/SnapRAID" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SnapRAID</span></a>? I'm running a regular sync/scrub on my NAS through cronjobs, and I want to monitor them for errors - so docs about the possible exit codes the tool has would be incredibly useful, but I can't find anything</p><p>Can I rely on it returning anything other than "0" in case anything out of the ordinary is detected, or should I look into parsing the output of the respective commands?</p>
tyil<p><span>Has anyone around the </span><a href="https://fedi.tyil.nl/tags/Fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a><span> used a NAS with </span><a href="https://fedi.tyil.nl/tags/MergerFS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MergerFS</a><span> and </span><a href="https://fedi.tyil.nl/tags/SnapRAID" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SnapRAID</a><span>, rather than conventional RAID setups? I want to hear about its stability and usability in a real-world scenario.<br><br>The plan here is a file storage server with up to 14 disks of 16TB each. Other great ideas for this setup are welcome too, I have about 1 week left to orient on how I will configure it.</span></p>
