Shutting Off Proxmox Cluster | Downgrading Homelab

Proxmox has been great, and I still plan to use it until my Docker setup is complete, but I no longer need to have a cluster after deprecating many of my VMs that were no longer in use or just not important. This means I can go from a 3-server and 1-filer system to a 1-server system on consumer hardware. Maintenance should be much simpler going forward.

When running a home lab 24/7, one quickly comes to realize that *more* is not necessarily *better*. I am running my entire home lab using 3 Mini PCs and two Pi 4Bs. Total power consumption is around 70W, and I spend a couple of hours per week on tweaking it.

wow dude, that's a kinda huge home NAS ^^

I run 2 node clusters with S2D storage pools on each server. Failover is great, without needing a separate storage server.

Nice video. Piratical. I have a small tower server (proxmox), and a synology. I want to down size even my small desktop server to a new NUC.

It's a little sad but.. good luck in life brother!

I literally just bought 3 nucs to run a proxmox cluster. Very cheap and powerful.

Nice setup. Sad to see it turned off, but I looks will be better for you.

thats in your living room - great vid as it takes allot less hardware to use all that stuff and the 1st one ive seen that is downgrade and makes total sense

Why will you run such data center at home?

[Alphahydro]

These days you can run the resources in an entire rack from a tower
