You need docker swarm for that, it's pretty easy to setup and it works as an extension to docker.

If you selfhist eg. DNS, or another static app that you want highly available but from a single IP, you can use keepalived directly on the host and this allows you to have two machines that share a third virtual IP, and if server A fails, the IP moves automatically to Server B and you don't even notice that the server failed, because everything failed over to the other server.

    Moving the homelab to another country (sopuli.xyz)
     

    I have an R320 that has 4 SAS drives 10TB each, which holds a lot of my data + backups from other systems, I also have an R710 which runs a lot of heavy workloads for my homelab, now I have to move to the other side of the EU and I don't know what to do with that lab, the electricy cost on the new country will be around 0.33c per Kw, while now I was paying under .10c.

    Here are the options that I have considered

    Take R320 with me As the SAS drives are in a unique configuration in xcp-ng it would be the safest option to transport the drives in a secure case with me and have the R320 moved to the new country, where I will set it up again and have some of my VMs and data.

    Make current pc the new server I have a quite powerful and recent pc build from 4 years ago, I was thinking of buying SAS pcie interfaces for my PC so I can cinvert it to a server and be able to read the SAS drives, but this is a bit expensive and requires me to buy a new computer for my self.

    Also, as I won't be keeping the R710, I was thinking of buying a few lenevo sff mini PCs and setting up a low power virtualization cluster and using the R320 or my PC as the storage medium.

    I have also backed up everything to storj and the most important data are also synced to a few cloud storage providers for safe keeping.

    How would you handle something like that? Would you start from scratch or try to bring as much as you can? I plan to invest at max 1k in rebuilding if needed but I would like to avoid it if possible, the SAS drives are enterprise grade and bought just a year ago so I would like to keep using them.
