Super simple, like 30 minutes to setup mergerfs and then the bind mounts are a few lines added to the LXC config files at most. This isn’t necessarily needed, but I have users setup on the proxmox host with access to specific directories that are kind of a pain in the ass to remap the LXC users to, but were needed to give my *arr stack access to everything needed without giving access to the entire storage pool. Hard links won’t work across multiple bind mounts because the container will see them as separate file systems, so if your setup is /mnt/storage/TV, /mnt/storage/downloads, etc. then you’d have to pass just /mnt/storage as the bind mount.

On the other hand, I’ve been mounting my storage drives on the proxmox host with mergerfs and exposing what I need to the LXCs with bind mounts for years, and I haven’t had a single issue with it across multiple major version upgrades.

It does, that’s the icon for Cromite.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I have an Nvidia GPU, can I game on Linux?
1·8 months agoRADV has the least issues but I still tend to test AMDVLK (vulkan-headers makes switching drivers per-game easy) for any big performance differences, and it’s typically the first thing I try for crashes now. If you want to use ray tracing at all you should definitely use AMDVLK, it performs way better.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I have an Nvidia GPU, can I game on Linux?
11·8 months agoIt ranges from significant performance differences between the drivers with specific games to games having rendering issues with specific drivers. A lot of games don’t work at all with the proprietary driver.
My most recent issue was with the Indiana Jones game having horrible traversal stuttering making some areas basically unplayable on RADV, but AMDVLK had no stuttering and better framerate overall.

45·8 months agoAMD is just simpler because you don’t have to manage the drivers, but it’s really not a big deal. It’s very easily handled.
Honestly this isn’t as true as I was led to believe it was before I switched to AMD. Just like Nvidia has issues between the proprietary driver and nouveau; AMD has its own mix of issues with Vulkan between RADV (mesa), AMDVLK, and AMD’s proprietary driver on a per-game basis at times.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•My Ultimate Self-hosting SetupEnglish
2·9 months agoWhat you’re describing sounds pretty much exactly like how I use Proxmox at this point (everything in LXCs, most just running docker on Alpine) and I’ve been wanting to make the switch to Incus for a while. Did you migrate your LXCs over from Proxmox? I’m a little worried about how painful that process might be.

3·11 months agoI can’t answer each bullet (and a couple are dependant on other things like drive speed, activity, and network throughput) but I’ve been using shucked external HDDs for over a decade and would recommend it. I used to use OpenMediaVault running in a VM on Proxmox and briefly tried TrueNAS, but I’ve since migrated all of my VMs to LXCs, so now I just have the drives mounted on the Proxmox host directly combined with mergerfs (not managed by Proxmox’s storage pools) and I pass it through to a Turnkey Linux file server LXC via bind mounts to share over SMB/NFS. Less overhead and LXCs can share CPU/memory dynamically while VMs can’t.
You should be able to replace that /mnt/external directory with no issues as long as the structure is the same within.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Help with lxc write accessEnglish
2·1 year agoThat reddit thread is horrible advice, it’s just mapping the LXC root user to the host root user, which is just a privileged LXC with extra steps (and maybe less secure).
The reason you’re probably having issues is that your root user in the LXC is mapped to the host user 100000 by default, and that user doesn’t have access to the share, but you can change that with mount options or creating a user with 100000:100000 and adding it to a group with access.
