What’s up, what’s down and what are you not sure about?

Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.

Personally I'm finally reaping the fruits of my labour and enjoy my stable homelab without doing much. One node went down recently and the other took over until I restarted so I was not in a hurry to fix things. Enjoying family time and only running updates that aren't automated (yet). I'm about to dig a bit deeper into logging, probably setting up central log collection like Loki at some point, but not yet.

I run MECM at home so that my Windows machines don't reboot themselves on their own. Apparently it corrupted its database some weeks ago, and I didn't notice until the backups had aged out. So I had to build a new one from scratch, and holy fuck I hate it every time. So many steps not documented or automated in the installation, to say nothing of all the items scattered across the MECM console that you have to configure before it does anything.

So I guess I should get around to log and system monitoring.
