  • I can’t turn it off because none of the lightbulbs in the house would turn on anymore

    Personally I try to avoid making anything in my home actually dependant on my server. I have a single lamp that can only be controlled from my phone and that’s only because it’s so rarely used that I didn’t want to put in the effort. Everything else is local first and only gets extended functionality from my server running.

    I’ve had a couple issues with my zigbee stuff over the years on the server side and I would be really pissed if I wouldn’t be able to turn my lights on because I haven’t gotten around to fixing my server yet.

    My proxmox server is named Atlas. It hosts a Truenas VM called truenas, a ubuntu server lts vm called Poseidon for docker container hosting a homeassistant VM called homeassistant and a second VM for docker containers called Neptune where I want to gradually move and reorganize my services as required.

    I also have a raspberry pi as a general testserver called eileithya and a Synology Nas named Hestia


  • How regularly do you use both of those devices?

    I was eyeing the steam deck for its portability but I rarely would have reason to use it so I held off. Same for the switch.

    When I’m at home I play on my desktop. When I’m not at home I’m mostly actively moving about or only waiting small periods of time which are not worth it to start gaming. The only reason I would have to really use them would be during vacations.









  • I run a couple of containers on my lenovo mini pc. I have proxmox installed on bare metal and then one VM for truenas, one for docker containers and one for home assistant OS.

    For me the limiting factor is definitely RAM. I have 20GB (because the machine came with a 2x4GB configuration and I bought a single 16GB upgrade stick) and am constantly at ~98% utilization.

    To be fair, about half of that is eaten up by TrueNAS alone due to ZFS.

    The point I’m trying to make is basically make sure you can put enough RAM into your machine. Some NAS have soldered memory you won’t be able to upgrade. The CPU performance you need highly depends on what you want to do.

    In my case the only CPU intensive task I have is media transcoding which can often be offloaded to dedicated bardware like intel quicksync. The only annoying exception is hardware transcoding of x265 media which is apparently only supported from intel 7th gen and upwards processors and I have a 6th gen i5… Or maybe I configured something wrong. No clue

    Edit: I wrote that after reading the first half of your comment. Regarding connecting a screen, I think I had one connected once to set up proxmox. Afterwards I just log into the proxmox web interface. If required I can use that to get a GUI session of each VM as well.





  • Thanks. I tried it like this and still get a 400 Bad Request error.

    Someone below mentioned adding some more IPs to the trusted_proxies list so I tried that as well without result. The IP I used for the reverse-proxy is the IP listed in portainer under the network for the proxy container. Just to reiterate, the container is running on a different device than homeassistant (technically same device but different VM but that shouldn’t make a difference).

    http:
      use_x_forwarded_for: true
      trusted_proxies:
        - 192.168.208.2 # IP of reverse-proxy in its network
        - 192.168.208.0/20 # Subnet of proxy docker network
        - 192.168.1.103 # HA IP
