However, I am going to make an updated video of going over how to do my current set up. Essentially, everything is the same except for the LXC containers that I create are all within one. ie the vault, plex, and servarr containers are now just one called servarr. This making sharing virtual drives between LXC containers not necessary. I still have the same separate data and docker volumes attached. How I switched to this was just by installing Plex and my Docker stack directly on the first vault container that technically owns all the data then I renamed it. Giving hardware transcoding to an unprivileged LXC container is a fairly easy thing to do. I personally didn’t run into any issues myself except for when the Plex container was going to write data when using the DVR feature. —— This is part one of my FULL server setup with Proxmox! In this part we setup network shares and get all our storage aligned and ready to go! 📖 RESOURCES Proxmox: https://www.proxmox.com/en/downloads Cockpit: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit Cockpit Sharing: https://github.com/45Drives/cockpit-file-sharing Cockpit Identities: https://github.com/45Drives/cockpit-identities Cockpit Navigator: https://github.com/45Drives/cockpit-navigator ZFS on Linux: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/ZFS_on_Linux ZFS in Proxmox: https://www.reddit.com/r/Proxmox/comments/jppohv/a_very_short_guide_into_how_proxmox_uses_zfs/ 🏆FOLOW TECHHUT X (Twitter): https://bit.ly/twitter-techhut MASTODON: https://bit.ly/mastodon-techhut INSTAGRAM: https://bit.ly/personal-insta 👏SUPPORT TECHHUT (all links below this line will earn us commission) BUY ME A COFFEE: https://buymeacoffee.com/techhut AIRVPN: https://airvpn.org/?referred_by=673908 HOSTINGER: https://bit.ly/techhut-hostinger YOUTUBE MEMBER: https://bit.ly/members-techhut 📷MY GEAR (PAID LINKS) MinisForum Tablet: https://amzn.to/3SeMmds Beelink N200: https://amzn.to/3xZjeQs LattePanda Sigma: https://amzn.to/3xZjpv6 Raspberry Pi 5: https://amzn.to/4f3yUCN ⏰ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Join me! 00:55 - Twingate (Sponsor) 01:55 - Hardware 03:33 - Software 04:36 - Flashing and Bios 05:43 - Installing Proxmox 08:11 - Storage Pool in Proxmox 11:02 - ZFS Commands 11:47 - Creating and Assigning Storage 14:36 - Creating Ubuntu Container 16:55 - New Mount Point in Containers 17:47 - Install Cockpit 19:48 - Install Cockpit Share Services 21:25 - CLICK FIX 21:30 - Create Users 23:31 - Setup Network Shares (SMB) 25:41 - Enable Discovery for Windows Machines 26:19 - Testing and DONE!
