Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | should I even have a /home/ if all the services run as systemd units on a server? | 18:28:22 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | i dont know what would be the most sensible configuration for this:
3x6tb drives
2x1tb drives
I could try ceph? or would zfs be better for this?
| 18:29:43 |
K900 | Please don't run openstack | 18:29:50 |
K900 | It's bad | 18:29:51 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | ah | 18:29:56 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | well | 18:29:57 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | proxmox-nix then | 18:30:00 |

K900 | Honestly it depends on what you're trying to do | 18:30:15 |
K900 | But you probably just want nixos-containers | 18:30:22 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | yeah, I would like the web interface of proxmox tho | 18:30:47 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | but I guess I can just use graphana | 18:30:57 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | and prometheus | 18:31:02 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | does it plug into graphana/prometheus? | 18:32:05 |
K900 | I mean | 18:32:40 |
K900 | It's just containers | 18:32:42 |
K900 | You can use whatever monitoring tools you want | 18:32:47 |
K900 | Depends on what you're trying to do | 18:32:53 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | yeah | 18:34:09 |
jappie | unless you're a hyperscaler / need to provision tens of thousands of VMs, you probably don't need / want openstack | 18:48:56 |
KFears (they/them) | I think you don't want it even then... | 18:51:15 |
Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | you dont know what I am /s | 19:09:55 |
Blastboom Strice | In reply to @sofiedotcafe:matrix.org and prometheus Hey thats what I want to do | 19:14:57 |
Blastboom Strice | Prometheus nodes in each nixos-container (and the main machine) and on one nixos-container will have graphana to collect all of the stats and display them | 19:16:02 |

mjm | lix is now in nixos-unstable, what's the best way to use it in a NixOS config? | 15:47:41 |
K900 | nix.package = pkgs.lix | 15:47:54 |
K900 | Probably | 15:47:58 |
