Home server rack finally got moved to its new dedicated room, now with proper climate control, sound insulation and a lot less dust!

This runs most of the image building, some CI and the online demo for the #Incus project amongst other things.

for anyone like me who is very very (very) late to the Linux #LXC party, this explains why #LXD has been replaced with #Incus.

tl;dr: #Canonical ruined things with a embrace-extend-extinguish play of relicensing and requiring contributors to sign a CLA to contribute to LXD.

Linux Containers Forum · LXD has been re-licensed and is now under a CLARight, so for anyone who hasn’t seen the news elsewhere already, the Canonical team has decided to change the LXD license from Apache2 to AGPLv3 as well as require all new contributions to sign the Canonical CLA. I wrote in more details here: LXD now re-licensed and under a CLA | Stéphane Graber's website Now the impact on our side with Incus is going to be that we won’t be able to look at any new LXD code and so won’t be able to import bugfixes and new features from it as that would force us ...

@bsi gibt es zur Doppelstrategie noch konkreteres zum Absichern von Software von z.B. US Anbietern? Bin da sowohl aus dem Netzpolitik, Heise und der offenen Antwort immernoch nicht ganz schlau draus geworden.

Gedanklich wäre ich da jetzt, dass man vll. VM+container Lösungen unter Linux und deren Security features weiter absichern/fördern würde (@proxmox, #incus, #LXC, #docker, #kubernetes, #Wine, #systemd, #apparmor, #selinux, #cgroups, namespaces...). Aber vll. auch nur Wunschdenken bei mir?

as always, highly depends on your personal needs. I'm a huge Proxmox fan, but there're of course several different cool solutions. Next to #Proxmox, I also often use #incus [0] in personal labs but I'm also a huge fan of #XCPng with #Orechstra. #SuseHarvester 's [2] approach is also a great solution (similar to #Platform9) if you want to go into the modern world (in the end, they're also using KVM). If it's just single node, I really would also consider #bhyve on #FreeBSD (maybe even via #ClonOS / #cbsd).

@ironicbadger My VM/System Container needs are simple so i've had no problems with #Incus on #NixOS.

One of my favourite features is that because it's a Go binary it can be run as a client on multiple OS'. So i can run it on my primary #MacOS system to admin my nodes running on #Linux.

I wrote a blog post at the beginning of the year about how I set it up on a cheap 1L mini PC (along with relevant configuration.nix file):
