Personally will be trying to transform my server which is currently in a fractal R5 case, into a small-ish Homelab rack, combined with all my network equipment. Will require complete relocation of all network equipment in the house as well as cables so it will be a bit of a project. Also on the lookout for a good quality rack so let me know if you have any recs. Still unsure if u want to do full width rack or mini. Part of me really want the UDM Pro from Unifi..

What are your goals and thing you want to accomplish during 2025?

Figure out why my new 10GbE NIC won’t read in my repurposed gaming rig (now server), get all my storage migrated over to Ceph, transition my services over to Proxmox hosted Talos k8s stack from my RPi-hosted k3s stack.

I want to improve my notifications. With that I mean emails coming from the server when updates are available when something happens during my rsync backup routines or just when they are completed and so on. Right now I don't really know when something is happening just when the server is not working anymore.

Harvester cluster my everything. I really want to play around with having my servers being stationary, a togo cluster (laptops, and UPS in a suit case), and PC all in the same cluster.

Right now they are all segmented rke2 clusters, but Harvester should make running vms way easier too.

Probably a hardware upgrade of some kind. The i5-7500 is not cutting it for Minecraft servers with mods and Arma 3 servers, single thread performance is just too slow. So I may grab an i3-14100 or similar and a motherboard and do that swap.

I'm currently saving up to buy a fractal design node 804 to build a NAS with 4 drives within. Also trying to create some more reliable backups using said NAS.

Really a few things. What I am looking to do is create a highly dynamic system where I can easily deploy something by kicking off some automation. To do this I am first creating a base Ceph shared filesystem. This will be mounted in all VMs so that I can use Ansible to quickly spin up Docker containers via docker compose. This will make it much easier to dynamically create resources and services since I won't need to worry about all the underlying components. I simply kick off the automation for any changes. I already have the automation to create new VMs.
