OMV 5 - Install ... Proxmox or Native?

1. offizieller Beitrag

    hi,


    currently am running OMV4 on Debian 9 wit XFCE with autoshutdown and WOL - so no 24/7 standalone server. I am using the PC for simple office tasks as well.


    since OMV5 was released, I want to upgrade to OMV5 with Debian 10.


    Now I am wondering if should install Debian 10 with XFCE and OMV (as I have now) or should switch to Debian with XFCE and Proxmox. OMV5 will then be a VM (Debian10) with HDD passthrough.


    Pros Proxmox (OMV as VM)

    - Easy Backup of VM

    - Proxmox Dashboard and Cluster

    - PC could be used for other LXE/VM


    Pros NO Proxmox (Debian and OMV)

    - Autoshutdown plugin working

    - Flash plugin working

    - HDD Smart working

    - HDD spindown working


    Does anybody have any advice which is the better solution?


    Any experience would be highly appreciated.


    Best

    You shouldn't run a desktop on either solution. Personally, I would install proxmox with an OMV VM and Debian/XFCE VM. Then connect to the XFCE VM with a simple device like an RPi.


    If you want to shut it down, you don't want to use proxmox either. It is really meant to be a server and run 24/7

    omv 7.0.5-1 sandworm | 64 bit | 6.8 proxmox kernel

    plugins :: omvextrasorg 7.0 | kvm 7.0.13 | compose 7.1.4 | k8s 7.1.0-3 | cputemp 7.0.1 | mergerfs 7.0.4

    thanks for your fast reply...


    As you see both solutions have its benefits but also downsides and I really don't know, which way to go. Currently I am running Debian 9 with LXCE and OMV (autoshutdown and WOL), which works like a charm and is a nice power efficient solution.


    Is there a way to simple copy sections for the config.xml from OMV4 to OMV5 - eg. shared folders? or do I have to add it via GUI?


    Thanks!

    Any simpler way to do that?

    No. And I will mention again that you shouldn't run OMV with a desktop environment.

    There are some explanations from TDL but I think it was for OMV4.
