Comment on Home server rebuild automation workflow

I just use a few shell scripts. Basically some simple bash scripts that do all the work after a fresh install.
Kubernetes/Ansible are great to learn, but are also more complicated for simple setups.

haven’t thought about it. I guess I’ll learn some bash :)
BTW what is a good OS for the VM host? many here are running proxmox… would you recommend it for this purpose of bash automation to bring up VMs?

Proxmox is built on Debian and is great. My second choice would just be plain Debian.

Okay 👍 Thanks for your suggestions. Think I’ll just stick with Debian 🙂

I use Debian and Ganeti. I’ve not toyed with much else, so I dont know how they compare.

thanks for the info… I’m thinking of sticking with just Debian (as my simple usecase) and use virsh commands…
