Sweet, thank you

Dang, that’s a lot of seperate parts for 1 “simple” task smh. It’s one of the reasons I’ve stayed away from all this Docker nonsense. I get it’s FOSS and is a great alternative to a lot of paid garbage, but just seems like there could be an easier way… Nice to learn, tinker, etc, but if it breaks, then it seems more complicated to fix as each component is separate.

I’ve just supported Window for so long and there’s a second-nature to troubleshooting; but took years to get there, ya know? I’ll check it out for sure, but I’m still going to look around myself

Someone opened my eyes recently to Yunohost which is a container manager essentially (my understanding) though is based on Debian for the newer versions not actual Docker.

Anyway, I can install Prometheus as well as node explorer, but I think I would only need Prometheus. Node explorer sounds like if I hosted Prometheus on another box and wanted this host to talk to it.

Why Grafana + Prometheus? Why do they have to go together?

Edit: I went back and reread… I think Prometheus is the data grabbing/monitor and Grafana is the polished UI dashboard???

Sorry, but reread, as OP mentioned exactly this, using gluetun, but no trackers connected.

Better yet, Libre Office. Fully compatible with MS formats plus ODF (which Microsoft now supports too btw)

Apparently I’m more than noob level 😅 every time I try to get to Traccar, I get my gateway’s landing page.

Regular Traccar uses port 8082 for the web and 5055 for app. I cannot get that either through domain (gateway) or lan IP (yunohost)

Normally I’d go 1.2.3.4:8082 (not my real lan IP) but Yuno seems to ignore that.

I’ll do some more digging when I get home, I’m at work with broken concentration

Oooh new toy to help?! Ok I’ll check that out and Yunohost too

Yeah, since Christmas, I more it sounds silly, but I’ve been playing a ton of video games with my kids lol. But not like CoD, more like Grounded 2, Gang Beasts, and Stumble Guys lmao

Haha, thanks! It’s probably more problematic being a solo IT guy as it feels like I don’t always have did dedicated time to get projects done. Part of why my lab is overkill is because I want something at work, so I spend a little time at home figuring stuff out, but, you know, family time n all…

Its still fun mostly, but work keeps assuming I must’ve freed up a lot of time in automating or improving stability so I keep being rewarded with more work outside of IT.

Yeah, self promote away lol

Yeah, transferring 80TB took what felt like an eternity. My Plex has a 2.5GbE and my switch is 10GbE but my SFP+ NIC in the storage wasn’t playing well…

That’s true, I’ve done a lot of stuff as testing that I thought would be useful services but then never really got used by me, so I didn’t maintain.

I didn’t take the time to really dive in and learn Docker outside of a few guides, probably why is a struggle…

This. I definitely need to take the time to organize. A few months ago, I setup a new 4U rosewill case w 24 hotswap as bays. Expanded my storage quite a bit, but need to finish moving some services too. I went from a big outdated SMC server to reusing an old gaming mobo since its an i7 but 95w vs 125wx2 lol.

It took a week just to move all my Plex data cuz that Supermicro was only 1GbE.

Dang, how’d you make that transition? Are you a dev or SWE?

That doesn’t sound the least bit fun lol

I will check that out even though, yes is homework lol.

And +1 for the contribution to help a stranger out!

Never heard of that, definitely checking it out!

Once you understand them, I suppose its easier. I’ve got a mix of win10, Linux VMs, RPis, and docker.

Having grown up on Windows, it’s second nature now and I do it for work too. I stated on Linux only around 2010 or so but kept flipping between the2 . anymore, trying to cut the power bill and went RPi but also trying to cut others and so docker is still relatively new in the last few years. Understand that I also do it few and far between at times on projects so is hard to dedicate time to learn enough to be comfortable. It also didn’t help I started on Docker Desktop and apparently everyone hates that and may have been a part of my problem adopting it.

Why did I never think of that?! That would make sense lol. Thank you!
