Veeam Backup of DC-01 Failed

Veeam Backup of DC-01 Failed

So I was checking on some backups I have running in Veeam Community Edition and noticed the backups for DC-01 have been failing for the past week with the following error: 12/6/2022 1:09:34 PM :: Processing DC-01 Error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check). Failed to read data

Paperless-NGX

I came across Paperless and wish I had found this years and years ago. Document management with built in OCR capabilities? Shut the front door! Man I need to get this running right now! It looks like a current fork that is still being worked on is called Paperless-NGX so

SnipeIT

I was in a position of needing to move a company's inventory management from an Excel spreadsheet to....well anything. Everyone points to SnipeIT being the gold standard for inventory management but I had never been in a situation where SnipeIT was being utilized. I usually had to

Well when I take a look today the indexing has either stopped or crashed overnight. When I try to log into the webpage it is not accepting my password. Interesting. Steps performed from PHOTOPRISM-01 * sudo docker-compose ps This shows the database is down with Exit 139. I'm guessing

PhotoPrism

One thing that I have been interested in a while is a way to manage my photos myself. Amazon and Google have nice solutions but it scares me what they're doing with our personal photographs. It's also always abundantly clear that they offer all this free

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

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

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

Backups!

Well now that I have a couple of applications and servers up and running that I am finding useful to keep around I need to back them up. At least the applications data. For the existing Windows servers is my testing lab I have them backing up to the Veeam

Monica - Take Three

Coming back to this today to try and make some progress. I had a thought last night, that I remember reading that the Monica authors recommend Ubuntu. I wonder if there are additional packages that come pre-loaded with Ubuntu that don't on Debian, hence my struggle. Well that&

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
