The home ‘production’ and the ‘Lab’

  • by

A bit of background on my setup. I have a couple of IBM x3650 M3’s and a ktn-stl3 disk-shelf that all this runs on in the basement. The primary server is setup like this:

  • IBM M3 (Dual x5650 and 98 GB RAM)
    • =>Proxmox
    • =>pFSense
      • Firewall and NAT for webservers, reverse proxy, SIP phone, etc
      • all LAN traffic goes through here to the outside world with pfBlockerNG to block ads on the network
    • =>FreeNAS
      • =>NextCloud Jail (points to dataset on Main pool for storage)
      • =>BSD Jail
      • =>Plex Jail
      • =>MineOS Jail
      • =>Transmission Jail (for OSS, honestly Guv…)
      • <=VM Pool, NFS Share (6 mirrored pairs of SAS drives) for VMs and Jails (above)   
      • <=Main Pool, SMB Share for FileServer (RaidZ2 of 6 2TB SATA drives
      • <=Backup pool (mirrored 4TB SATA drives)
      • <=Media pool (Raidz2 600GB SAS drives)
    • =>LXC Caddy, reverse proxy for websites (NextCloud, WordPress, etc)
    • =>LXC WordPress
      • =>VillageGreen.org.nz
      • =>BuggerMe.org.nz (also .co.nz)
      • =>Fryett.net (yet to be deployed)
    • =>TrueCommand (to manage FreeNAS and FreeNAS_testing)
    • =>Windows 10 (moved to test server)
    • =>Several Linux Distro’s and or LXCs

The Test box also runs proxmox and will normally have FreeNAS-nightly, a BSD, several Linux Distro’s and what ever else I’m playing with that I don’t want on the main box, including Windows 10.
