Comment on My Ultimate Self-hosting Setup
gaylord_fartmaster@lemmy.world 1 week agoWhat you’re describing sounds pretty much exactly like how I use Proxmox at this point (everything in LXCs, most just running docker on Alpine) and I’ve been wanting to make the switch to Incus for a while. Did you migrate your LXCs over from Proxmox? I’m a little worried about how painful that process might be.

I used the recommended migration tool and it worked okay for many containers but iirc the docker ones had to have one of the security options manually changed in their config which didn’t transform properly with the tool (maybe nesting enable?).
May very well have changed in the meantime or I only made a mistake, that was in my experimentation phase.
Ultimately, I did rebuild my instances from the ground since I also switched file system, and to make better use of incus profiles (e.g. one with docker provisioned, one with monitoring and so on) so I couldn’t give you a long-term migration review.
For me that was (relatively) painless by just migrating the docker volumes in place and rebuilding the stacks, of course ymmv.
If you decide on migrating and stumble upon issues don’t hesitate to hit me up - I’m only an amateur but maybe I can still help!
