Test PhotoPrism Migration I'm finally able to come back to this Docker migration and I'm going to work on PhotoPrism's migration today. Steps performed on PHOTOPRISM-01 * sudo apt update * sudo apt upgrade * sudo docker-compose down * sudo docker-compose pull * sudo docker-compose up -d Now that

Decommission Firefly III So after playing with this and Actual Budget the past few months I've come to understand that Firefly III is just not the right budgeting software for me. Their documentation does mention that it is not a "bucket budget" software, but I'

Docker Consolidation Project, Part Six

Docker Consolidation Project, Part Six

Build a Dedicated Docker Test Server So I've gotten a number of my containers successfully migrated over to DOCKER-01 so the last thing I wanted to work on for this was to make a test machine that I can use to play with new containers. Steps performed on

So in the past year I have had a ton of fun bringing up numerous different software solutions. Some of them have been super useful like Monica, and some have helped me learn and appreciate Docker. When I started I was treating each software I put inside a container like

Actual Budget

So Firefly III is nice, but I just can't figure out what exactly the budget system is trying to do. I can set it to automatically add an amount each month to a budget, but it doesn't always actually add it. Plus it seems to change

Tandoor Recipes

I stumbled across Tandoor Recipes recently and I think it would be really cool to have our own shopping list and digital recipe application. I like the idea of it tracking when we cook a recipe so we can tell if we've fallen into a rut of just

Homebox

I'm going to give Homebox a go since SnipeIt is just a bit too powerful and I'd spend too much time just fussing and administering it. Create Virtual Machine Steps performed on HV-03 via Windows Admin Center * I navigate to Virtual Machines * I click on Add

Fileserver Offline, Part Two

Fileserver Offline, Part Two

I woke up extra early today, my mind racing about this hard drive. If you remember from yesterday my operating system drive for HV-01 failed yesterday. I was able to replace it with a nice brand new SSD and reinstall the operating system. However one of the eight data drives

Fileserver Offline

Fileserver Offline

I came home late and my little one told me he could not reach the fileserver. I go downstairs to take a look and as I get close to HV-01 I can hear a hard drive spinning like mad. It is super loud. A quick check confirms that the HV-01

Firefly III, Part Two

Install Operating System I'm going to give the recreated virtual machine a try here today. Nope it locks the host up as well. Huh. So the only difference I can see with this virtual machine and the other virtual machines working correctly is that FIREFLY-01 is utilizing the

Firefly III

The family is in desperate need for some new budgeting software. The old standalone version of YNAB has started constantly causing corrupted writes and has very sluggish performance all of a sudden. I find it hard to accept that I should pay a monthly fee for software that doesn'

Authentik Security

Authentik Security

So I have a couple of applications up and running now, which means I know have a bunch of different usernames and passwords. It'd be great if I can replace them all and just have one login across these applications. It seems like two big players in the

TubeArchivist

I feel like starting a new project today, and this one has been on my list for a while. I struggle with the modern day YouTube. Videos are constantly disappearing from the platform for a number of different reasons. Which honestly sucks having a video you've enjoyed just

Calibre

Over the past few years I have kept hearing how great it can be to run a Calibre server for your personal eBooks. Any time I have looked into it, Calibre's documentation has just never made sense to me as far what I actually need to do. Yesterday

Paperless-NGX, ERRNO 28 No Space Left on Device

While upload some documents to Paperless-NGX it gave me the above error message. My initial investigation shows the operating system is not out of space, but the underlying container is showing 99% usage. * lsblk -o NAME,FSTYPE,SIZE,MOUNTPOINT,LABEL NAME FSTYPE SIZE MOUNTPOINT LABEL loop0 squashfs 63.2M /snap/

Upgrade HV-01 Hard Drives, Part Four

Upgrade HV-01 Hard Drives, Part Four

So I decided to go ahead and migrate VM-02 to HV-03. The migration is very quick and easy. So I started running some diagnostics on the hard drives in HV-01. They all come back fine. Weird. What is going on? I ran multiple diagnostics from a few different pieces of

Upgrade HV-01 Hard Drives, Part Three

Upgrade HV-01 Hard Drives, Part Three

Well that's surprising. The migration ultimately failed due to it not being able to find one of the files. That seems less than ideal to be honest. Well while I'm checking on things I decide to turn on VM-01. VM-01 fails to start though. "Virtual

Upgrade HV-01 Hard Drives, Part Two

Upgrade HV-01 Hard Drives, Part Two

Today I start by opening Windows Admin Center and connect to HV-01. I head to virtual machines and select VM-01. I tell VM-01 to shut down. Then I move VM-01 to the C: temporarily. After VM-01 boots back up I verify it is running properly. I then power down HV-01

Upgrade HV-01 Hard Drives

Upgrade HV-01 Hard Drives

So I've run into a problem running a few virtual machines on HV-01. Some background, HV-01 is a consumer grade computer running Hyper-V standalone. It's primary function is to act as a file server via it's primary virtual machine. Then I have a few

Bookstack

So I've had a thought of building my own Wiki. I've grown tired of OneNote, and while I am currently testing Obsidian, I've thought about using a Wiki for my note taking instead. Bookstack always gets rave, glowing reviews as being a tremendous Wiki.

Pi-Hole

So one thing I was interested in was taking some control over my DNS. I could go with Bind but I heard about Pi-Hole and thought it would be interesting to check out. Verify Prerequisites So looking through the prerequisites it looks like the only item of concern is for

Linux Up Skill - Day 0

A day 0 to prep. Sounds great! They say each day’s lesson should take between 1 and 2 hours depending on your skill level. So I do appreciate them giving some prep before the lessons start in June. Day 0 is focused on preparing your own server. They are

Setting Up R730, Part Four

After my little side trip down Hyper-V Manager configuration errors I’m ready to finish setting up in Hyper-V. From Windows Admin Center I create a 300GB drive partition to get me started with setting up some virtual machines. I set Hyper-V’s default disk and VM paths to this

Setting Up R730, Part Three

Coming back to that error I experienced connecting to the server from Hyper-V Manager on my desktop: …Check that the Virtual Machine Management service is running and that you are authorized to connect to the server. You do not have the required permission to complete this task. Contact the administrator
