hey yeah, no stress!

just lemme know if you’d want someone to brainstorm with.

lemme know if you need some tshooting remotely, if schedules permit, we can do screenshares

I had this issue when I used kubernetes, sata SSDs cant keep up, not sure what Evo 980 is and what it is rated for but I would suggest shutting down all container IO and do a benchmark using fio.

my current setup is using proxmox, rusts configured in raid5 on a NAS, jellyfin container.

all jf container transcoding and cache is dumped on a wd750 nvme, while all media are store on the NAS (max. BW is 150MBps)

you can monitor the IO using IOstat once you’ve done a benchmark.

I’d check high I/O wait, specially if your all of the vms are on HDDs.

one of the solution I had for this issue was to have multiple DNS servers. solved it by buying a raspberry pi zero w and running a 2nd small instance of pihole there. I made sure that the piZeroW is plugged on a separate circuit in my home.

i didnt have a problem with network ports (I use a switch) what I shouldve considered during purchasing was the number of drives (sata ports), pcie features (bifurcation, version, number of nvme slots)

I need to do high IOPs for my research now and I am stuck with raid0 commodity SSDs in 3 ports.

ex-IT? what do you do now?

I heard so many stories about school IT, I’ve never been on one though. the most baffling thing I heard from coworkers that came from usual office IT and moved to school IT was that there was no respect for the profession and the amount of entitlement from users are really un imaginable.

I’m running a PBS instance (plus networking containers) for 4years now, cc on file for the first 2 years, now on file, but my usecase is operating within the free-forever tier.

My instance has not been deleted by them, though I’ve rebuilt the multiple times since.

The region you are on might be struggling with capacity issues, I use middle east region and never encountered account/vm deletions (yet). For my case, latency isnt an issue so i dont mind having it ona far away region.

The job security.
