Documenting what I've done, for the fun of it

[defan24]

Just starting this thread, gonna have it on my other screen while I try stuff out and documenting what I can while I'm going about it

Setup was smooth, but I think the setup would have broken if the server was on a different VLAN, will test later.

Follow along for more!

[defan24]

Config

Intel i5-4440S 4-cores, 3.3Ghz

8GB RAM DDR3

256GB SSD Boot drive, no other storage, possible to get more but would be somewhat of a hassle

1Gb Local networking, 600mbps WAN Connection

 

[defan24]

List of Apps in the order I'm gonna try them, Will do my best to remove configs from the previous apps as I go-

Unifi Network Controller

Immich, Wanna try to get HTTPS and full URL working, but I might have to do a Kemp L7 switch

Minecraft Server(s)

ZeroTier

HandBreak

qBittorrent

TFTP Server, and Network booting with VMs

Pi Hole

Uptime Kuma and other Monitoring apps

Other Media Apps

Home Assistant

WordPress

2FAuth

WebDAV

SFTPGo
---

Edit - Most of these require do go through TrueNAS, which I still will, but I'll need to get another drive to test with, I'll do Immich for now since I wanna test it out

pi hole worked for me

Welp, I have to add a pool, time to scrap together something

[defan24]

Janky Storage solution - 2x USB Flash Drives, here goes nothing

It lets me create a pool...and it works....

Now the system Health is saying that something isn't running normally (Shocker)

Now the storage pool wants to show, but acting like it isn't. Weird Bug

Rebooting... No Dice. System still showing issue with Health, but no details. See Attached Image

[defan24]

Delving over to TrueNAS side to see, showing errors with the Pools, but the disks are healthy

Trying to fix pool, but it looks like it created the pool on the disks but didn't make the disk? See attached screenshot

Wiping the disks and trying again, Rebooting... Still not showing the Drives to make the pool

Noticed that TrueNAS Scale didn't update after being installed, not sure if that's an issue or not

Resetting HexOS

[defan24]

Wow, Resetting was Fast!

It recognized the drives during setup, letting it recreate the pool from there

Again, really fast, really smooth, really nice

Storage pool shows up normally

Trying out Immich, taking its sweet time, gonna make some food and come back

[defan24]

Came back, Install failed... odd... Log says it completed, maybe weird bug?

Installed, didn't automaticlly start the app, and settings takes me to TrueNAS

And it can't start the App

Logs show that the app failed to install, see screenshot

[defan24]

Uninstalled, reinstalled, had to reboot cause it thought the app was still installed

And its Running!

Gonna FAFO for a bit then head to bed and pick it up tommorrow

Gonna see if the local E-Cycling center has a couple of SSDs or something that I can pick up on the cheap

To be fair, it is working now, and the SD Cards was actually what I was looking for, but I couldn't find the USB adapters for them

For one click installs, only two at the moment (Plex and Immich), but you can switch to advanced mode which takes you to the TrueNAS interface and from there you can install other apps manually. They should then show in HexOS.
