Large Format Projectionist<p>Ok, time to stop doom-scrolling.

Mika<p>My <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/homelab" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#homelab</a> wiki is getting really complicated to organise and write for haha, but it's definitely getting more interesting topics like more <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/RaspberryPi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RaspberryPi</a> stuffs, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Docker" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Docker</a>, and some cool stuffs like <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OpenMediaVault" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenMediaVault</a> and <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/HomeAssistant" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HomeAssistant</a>. I'm taking my sweet time to update them 'properly' and hope it'll all link/piece together <i>sensibly</i><span> in the end.<br><br>This is partially thanks to me embracing the fact that I just don't (yet) have the resources for a </span><i>standalone</i> 'mega' homelab (<a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Proxmox" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Proxmox</a> &amp; <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Kubernetes" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kubernetes</a><span> based) server cluster that I could simply throw everything to it, hence supplementing that setup with tinier SBC-based servers. Gives me a bit of peace of mind too that things are now more 'spread out'.<br><br>The most interesting bit will probably be when I manage to explore replicating a mini version of my </span><a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/RKE2" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RKE2</a> Kubernetes cluster, on a single (or at most, two) Raspberry Pi node - maybe based on <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/k3s" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#k3s</a>, assuming that's better. I'm just not there yet cos I'm kinda reluctant if using something like <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/k8s" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#k8s</a> on RPi makes much sense since I'm expecting a lot of resources will be wasted that way, when hosting on Docker alone (i.e. on <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Portainer" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Portainer</a>) <i>should</i><span> be leaner.<br><br></span>🔗 Anyway, if y'all wanna keep an eye on it: <a href="https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/homelab-wiki" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/homelab-wiki</a></p>

Mika<p>There doesn't seem to be any option or useful documentation on using or moving back the user home directory to the OS storage, from the shared data storage on <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OpenMediaVault" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenMediaVault</a>. I thought it made sense before to separate them, but has proven troublesome in cases where the disk is temporarily unavailable - and I'm also thinking it might be an issue when a disk is being replaced, and said disk is part of where the user home directory is. Having them on the OS storage makes more sense so its <i>availability</i> is <i>locked</i> to the availability of <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OMV" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OMV</a> instead.</p>
