Current running one box with Proxmox split into several VMs:
- 1 core devoted to HTPC VM
- 2 cores devoted to Linux VM for hosting game servers
- 1 core devoted to Portainer and ~25 containers
- 1 core reserved for running VMs for fun (Windows, different Linux distros)
My main concern is with my Portainer machine handling quite a bit at this point. I haven’t noticed any performance degradation yet, but I’m wondering if I could benefit from introducing another machine to my homelab to host some services.
How do you tend to organize, separate, and split resources between your hosted services? What steps did you take to begin growing your homelab? Next big step for me is getting an HDD enclosure to serve out more storage then my one HDD allows, but I’m posing this question from a CPU/RAM resources perspective.
