I do, but need my laptop. The bit you need to fix is adding a new deb repo, will try and post tomorrow now

thats not cricket, you cant replay to a No Stupid Questions with thats stupid.

Flag it with the mods!

Your issue could be a missing index, check the admin settings page and see if it has any advice.

I also found that my files_cache table was missing an index from way back, I had to empty the table and create the index. But the speed boost was insane, it went from painfully slow to almost instant.

I run nextcloud, but I do use other apps. Like contacts and calendar, the news app and even the whiteboard.

But I run it like the work servers I manage, I still don’t understand how so many find running nextcloud so difficult.

I was thinking the same thing, I have a ConBee2 and it works fine, but an update to zigbee3 may be what I want it for.

In your case, some mains powered devices would solve your issue. zigbee is a meshing network, so a mains powered device between where your ZBT-1 and the new devices should help

You could have a look at OVH and see if they have an image, whats your budget?

if your after alternative to CLoudflare DNS, I can recommend OVH for both domain name and zone, they have API so you can get certs for both internet facing stuff and internal domains

I dont use cloudflare at all, so I didnt notice. I do see a lot of recommendation’s to host behind Cloudflare, so if they have a problem you do too

For large server estates it makes things a breeze to manage, that and semaphore.

sure

I can say that is more than some companies do, yes you need 2 copies of import data in 2 locations. And test the backups work at least monthly.

Where I work we do the same sort of thing, incremental database backups hourly and then shipped to off site s3. A full database backup everyday day and shipped to off site s3, test restores every month to check it works - a full plus incremental.

This gets gets us past all the audits for ISO and cyber essentials and the NHS thing.

Just a reminder that you can host on a group of pis and still have all that good stuff, it won’t be as fast as x86 stuff. But spread the load and things can be quick.

Yes you do need backups of import data, but you don’t need to have data backups and images backups. If you can rebuild the host the data was on thats fine.

I did run my homelab on about 9 pi’s, all connected like spaghetti. If the NFS pi fell over it took out the lot.

So yes you can use pis as a homelab

Do you maintain all that stuff?

Like patch it and back it up?

If not then your doing it wrong!

I started running everything I could, but found the upkeep a pain. Didnt use most of it.

So I now only keep hosted stuff I use, if I don’t access it once it’s running then it goes in the bin.

God yes, where I work I cover most of that.

There for self hosting is part of how I work, I need to know networking, how to administer Linux servers and even how to debug applications from logs.

It’s all skills that you need to learn, that’s not gate keeping it part of self hosting.

I would echo that, if you have read the manual and still can’t fix it then forums are the place. I see so many posts that start with “I’ve tried nothing and I’m all out of ideas”

Self hosting is a skill that needs learning, you can’t start at the top.

Learning to read manuals and how to find the bit you need is part of that skill.

Maybe if you find a helpful post, repost on Lemmy so that more traffic ends here?

Was about to add that very idea, maybe I should write a compos file with postfix setup

Have a look at shelly, they have amazing firmware.

Looks like you can detached the switch, so it does nothing
