  • You should be able to migrate most or all of your existing Hyper-V VMs to Proxmox, which would be relatively straight forward. My recommendation would be backing up everything to your TrueNAS (that has the dedicated HBA) then you can wipe your Windows boot drive and install Proxmox. Then you could start by migrating your TrueNAS VM over and passing it’s HBA back to it.

    Yeah I thought about this being the easiest way to do it. I just wasn’t sure if TrueNAS would come back up and just recognize the disks and start working. I have backups of everything and I’ve tested restoral. I would prefer to not have to go the backup restoral route as it’s more a scorched earth option. My other VMs I’m not really concerned about, it was mainly the NAS.

    I don’t really have any experience with PVE, but I want to learn. I’ve been learning about docker containers more recently, I like learning new tech so I’m all for it. My main PC has been running Linux for about 6 months now and I’m just trying to get away from Microsoft in general. Thanks for the info.







  • I only recently started using it, honestly couldn’t say. I’ve never used portainer. I just started using dockge because that’s what the guide I was following for the arr stack was using. Still haven’t finished the arr stack setup yet. I did stand up changedetection with dockge though because trying to set it up in TrueNAS was a pain in the ass when trying to get it to play with playwright correctly.










  • Honestly I would love to, but getting my family off of all of the other corpo cloud stuff is still a work in progress. Also, I only have VPN access configured currently so when they need to access self hosted stuff remotely they have to remember to turn on the VPN and that seems to be hard for them to remember. I have Tasker configured on my phone so it just auto VPNs when I leave my house. I would set that up for them, but they complain whenever I try to help.

    I only backup specific folders in my NAS and some of my service DBs. I have test restored some files from Backblaze without issue. With Backblaze you pay for pulls, so I only chose to restore some small files to test restoral. TrueNAS encrypts the data before it goes to Backblaze and then Backblaze also encrypts the data in the buckets on their end, so double encrypted. I don’t have another on site copy so not really following the 3,2,1 rule. I figure RAID and an off-site backup is enough for me.
