Enough people have already commented on the "proxy at the vps solution". Another option is to configure routing and nat on the VPS and have it route over the wg tunnel.

Requires you to have postup/predown scripts that modify your routing tables on the wg endpoint.

I made the plunge about a year ago. Spectrum assigns me a prefix but routing was spotty at best. In the end after all the troubleshooting pointed to the problem being the ISP I gave up and stuck with what works, IPv4.

I mean, if you spent the kind of scratch on an android phone you would on an iPhone and then not fuck around with it, you'd have a similar experience on Android.

Years ago I used to flash roms and generally tinker until I decided I needed my phone to be stable and stopped. My Note 20 is polished and stable, no complaints.

My wife has always had iPhones. I've used both and find iOS frustrating. These days, unless you're scraping the bottom of the barrel, it's mostly about comfort and preference.

I gave it the old college try about 6 months ago. Found out how to send the req for a subnet to my ISP. Configured my opnsense. When it worked, it worked. But it would randomly stop routing regularly. After a lot of troubleshooting determined it was the isp and have up.

Maybe I'll try again in another 6 months.

I'm using CheckMk for pretty much all of that. Personally I found zabbix to have too much overhead.

If you want the small footprint and power costs are a concern, look for a second hand mini computer. Dell, Lenovo, Intel nuc.

Something like this as an example.

No but less power hungry than a full desktop. It's a good trade-off between power and performance.

We had those bullshit apps on PC before Android was a glimmer in its Mama's eye. Why is Microsoft pushing that crapware?

I think that's illegal in some places, like California and the EU.

Weird I still see the comment. I wouldn't even know it was deleted if you hadn't said something.

I just wanted to say I loved your analogy.

I'm starting to lean towards this being an I/O issue but I haven't figure out what or why yet. I don't often make changes to this environment since it's running my Opnsens router.

root@proxmox-02:~# zpool status
  pool: rpool
 state: ONLINE
status: Some supported and requested features are not enabled on the pool.
        The pool can still be used, but some features are unavailable.
action: Enable all features using 'zpool upgrade'. Once this is done,
        the pool may no longer be accessible by software that does not support
        the features. See zpool-features(7) for details.

I've done a bit of research on that and I believe upgrading the zpool would make my system unbootable.

SeeJayEmm OP ,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

Proxmox is using ZFS. Opnsense is using UFS. Regarding the record size I assume you're referring to the same thing this comment is?

You can always find some settings in your opnsense vm to migrate log files to tmpfs which places them in memory.

I'll look into this.

SeeJayEmm OP ,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

I'm referring to this.

... using grub to directly boot from ZFS - such setups are in general not safe to run zpool upgrade on!

$ sudo proxmox-boot-tool status
Re-executing '/usr/sbin/proxmox-boot-tool' in new private mount namespace..
System currently booted with legacy bios
8357-FBD5 is configured with: grub (versions: 6.5.11-7-pve, 6.5.13-5-pve, 6.8.4-2-pve)

Unless I'm misunderstanding the guidance.

That cheat sheet is getting bookmarked. Thanks.

SeeJayEmm OP ,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

Media should exist in its own with a tuned record size of 1mb

Should the vm storage block size also be set to 1MB or just the ZFS record size?

SeeJayEmm OP ,

Thanks I may give it a try if I'm feeling daring.
