Replace one disk, let the raid rebuild. Do the same with the other disk. Do an mdadm grow, then maybe fdisk / lvm / resize fs depending on your setup. Don't forget to install a bootloader when you put a new disk in.

Making a new array and migrating data is for chumps.

Shadow , 21 days ago

Yes it's really that easy. Raid in Linux is usually at the partition level, not the whole device. The bootloader resides in the first few blocks of the disk before your partitions, and isn't included in the raid.

Use grub-install on the new disk device, ie /dev/sda

Just turn off swap? You don't really need it, and the kernel wiil just oom kill without it.

Shadow , 23 days ago

Well that's technically correct, but if you're so dependent on disk cache for system performance that you can't live without it then you really need to look at doing an upgrade.

When a box swap deaths, it usually struggles to actually fill swap enough to have the kernel still OOM kill it at any point. Generally the massive performance impact of swapping just slows the app down to the point of being useless, along with the entire rest of the box. Disk cache should not be a concern during these abnormal events.

Interesting, thanks for the link!

A lot of reasonably competent geeks just never get deep into networking, and VPNs can be overwhelming. It doesn't really help that for a long time it was all IPSec which basically you need to learn voodoo to manage. Thankfully we have much better tools now, but it's still just a tech layer that many people don't touch frequently.

Did you enable the route in the admin web ui?

Shadow , 28 days ago

That should be all that's required. Are you using ACLs? If so you need to provide access to the subnet router as well as a rule to the IP behind it

Can your nodes ping each other on the tailscale ips? Check tailscale status and make sure the nodes see each other listed there.

Try tailscale ping 1.2.3.4 with the internal IP addresses and see what message it gives you.

tailscale debug netmap is useful to make sure your clients are seeing the routes that headscale pushes.

Shadow , 28 days ago

Relay "ams" means you're using tailscales DERP node in amsterdam, this is expected if you don't have direct connectivity through your firewall. Since you opened the ports that's unusual and worth looking into, but I'd worry about that after you get basic connectivity.

So to confirm your behavior, you can tailscale ping each other fine and tailscale ping to the internal network. You cannot however ping from the OS to the remote internal network?

Have you checked your routing tables to make sure the tailscale client added the route properly?

Also have you checked your firewall rules? If you're using ipfw or something, try just turning off iptables briefly and see if that lets you ping through.

Shadow , 27 days ago

How do I do this?

Run ip route show table all

I would expect to see a line like:

192.168.178.0/24 dev tailscale0 table 52

Out of curiosity on a remote node do tcpdump -i tailscale0 -n icmp and then do a ping from the other side, does tcpdump see the icmp packets come in?

Shadow , 27 days ago

The tailscale client should have created an interface, but I've never used it on a box also running wg. You don't have a tailscale specific interface in ip addr show at all? That's.... odd.

Do you have a device at /dev/net/tun?

Shadow , 1 month ago

No

Shadow , 1 month ago

Yeah and sync doesn't support any of those calls yet.

Not home lab specific, but a few things around my house to help inspire you.

while true; do waybar; done

Shadow , 1 month ago

I guess waybar still returns 0 on segfault. Seems weird.

Shadow , 1 month ago

Yeah you would need to use a ; instead of &&

New messaging looks awesome!

Is there a way I can bind sync to be my default app for links to my instance? Annoying that someone sends me a lemmy.ca link and I have to go find it manually in sync, or just view it in my browser.

Shadow , 2 months ago

Ah that makes sense, thanks! I was looking in the sync options.

Edit: odd it doesn't work. I added every domain, then click a lemmy.world link in discord and it still opens chrome

Right to be forgotten applies to personal data. Your posts are not personal data.

Shadow , 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago)

Please provide evidence that a public post you make would be considered personal info.

https://law.stackexchange.com/questions/28276/are-internet-forum-posts-considered-personal-data-under-gdpr

The law is poorly written unfortunately and I don't think we'll know for sure until there's a legal challenge.

Shadow , 2 months ago

Ah Gotcha, but I don't think you're right.

Right to be forgotten: https://gdpr-info.eu/art-17-gdpr/

This talks explicitly about personal data in all contexts.

The definition of personal data is anything that can be used to identify someone: https://gdpr-info.eu/issues/personal-data/

This isn't all user data, just stuff that makes a user identifiable.

Editing post titles is adding HTML and the urlencoding it on me. If I edit a post I see <p> tags on it and editing it again ends up with url encoded values.

Shadow , 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago)

Can just point it to /dev/shm as a transcoding folder, for a quick and dirty way.

Otherwise you'd mount a tmpfs disk.

Shadow , 2 months ago

Svn? It's not 2002 anymore.

Onedrive or dropbox would work well. Otherwise if you want source control, git would be the way to go.

I'd love the ability to view and manage reports, and ban users.

Alao viewing upvotes / downvotes. All the admin features basically.

Shadow OP , 2 months ago

Go to the other thread in this community titled "anyone run across a post that crashes sync?" and then just scroll down into the comments, and your client should crash.

Shadow OP , 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago)

It's stupid but.... I don't like their font choices. If it had the one sync uses I'd be more on board.

I also find it slow when swiping away images, sync does that immediately but boost gives me a brief black screen.

Shadow OP , 2 months ago

I've tried them all, didn't like them :( Sync just has the most polished UX imho and it's hard to leave it when I've been on it for years.

Shadow OP , 2 months ago

Z Fold 3. It's really about the dense layout though and the amount of spacing / font sizes / everything.

Shadow OP , 2 months ago

It was actually just last week. I installed all the lemmy apps I could find and spent 30 minutes on each one seeing if I liked it and could customize it the way I want.

"izzy"? Racoon wasn't on my list, I'll give it a whirl.

Shadow OP , 2 months ago

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a try!

Shadow OP , 2 months ago

On desktop yeah, but on mobile it's much nicer to use an app.

Shadow OP , 2 months ago

The big one for me is not losing my place in the feed when I hit back from reading the comments on a post. That makes the web ui pretty much unusable for me on mobile, I get constantly thrown back to the top of my feed.

Shadow , 2 months ago

It's not lemmy.world, there's a bad post that is crashing sync for users across instances. It's a sync bug.

It was reported here https://midwest.social/post/9381826 but the comments in that will now crash sync too.

Shadow , 2 months ago

Yes, just look at eth0. You might like the iptraf tool too.

Shadow , 2 months ago

I've opened an issue, hopefully ljdawson will see it quicker there.

He said elsewhere that it's fixed and the new release is going through google.
