One hard drive is enough. If the GUI does not see the file system created, you just have to look for the problem and solve it. Can you give more information about this?
Regarding creating a Raid, if you are not familiar perhaps you should ask yourself the reason for creating it. You need a backup. https://www.raidisnotabackup.com/
In your opinion, which is better to buy Asrock N100DC or Asus Prime N100i-d d4?
It depends on what you are looking for.
In my opinion the main difference is that the Asrock motherboard forces you to use an external power supply. The motherboard has a built-in power connector for two hard drives, so you'll be limited to only two mechanical hard drives unless you find another way to power a third hard drive.
The Asus motherboard allows you to use a standard power supply, so you will have no problems powering the number of drives that you are able to connect to the motherboard.
On the other hand, I seem to remember that the Asrock motherboard forces the CPU to work a little above its specifications. This will give you slightly higher performance but could also reduce its useful life.
I see that there is also an Asus Prime n100i-d d4-csm, but I don't know the difference between those Asus mbo
The only difference is that the second includes management software.
This new Radxa board is impressive. n100 with 8GB of ram, 2.5 GBe, m.2 slot all in RPi form factor for $80. Even supposed to be a 16GB model coming.
Yes, it seems interesting, finally a small board with an x86 processor. Good news.
We will have to wait to see what designs there are to cool that CPU passively. It looks very attractive for building a basic PC. To build a server you would have to figure out how to install a pcie to sata adapter in that little port and have a decent chip. You would also have to think about how to power multiple hard drives.
This opens up a lot of possibilities, I like it.
I don't use ZFS encryption. Maybe someone else can help.
Quiero instalar wireguard y pihole se puede en OPV
Yeah.
Wireguard, plugin -> https://wiki.omv-extras.org/do…v7:omv7_plugins:wireguard
Pihole, use docker -> https://wiki.omv-extras.org/doku.php?id=omv7:docker_in_omv
searching for solutions on the internet I saw that I needed a Ddns service to resolve the host.
I assume you haven't read the plugin documentation. That's explained there. https://wiki.omv-extras.org/do…v7:omv7_plugins:wireguard
Now what happens is that it doesn't let me access the Nas services (e.g. File. browser). I suspect because of the permissions. What do you think?
If you can access your local network the tunnel is working, then the problem is something else. The tunnel works or it doesn't. If it works you should have access to everything.
Clear the browser cache. Ctrl+Shift+R
No, in neither of them, you should not touch the network cards. I am referring to the Wireguard configuration on the client, simply add a line like this in the interface section to the tunnel:
DNS = 192.168.1.1
I assume you are connecting your PC to the internet by sharing data from your smartphone or something similar. If you have your PC connected to the same network where the server is, it probably won't work.
My wish is to expose safely OMV to the internet through a VPN.
If your ISP has not put you behind CGNAT, the easiest thing would be to use the openmedivault-wireguard plugin.
If you configure DNS on an IP on your local network, the client will be able to access that IP through Wireguard, you don't need anything else. Generally the router will provide the client with a valid DNS address on the Internet.
Well, from what you said it wasn't clear if the "peers" were NTFS or not, but let's move on.
My only advice here is to get rid of any non-native Linux filesystem as I already said, it doesn't matter if it's a Raid or not. And yes, to do so you will have to save the data somewhere else.
If you have high CPU usage it is because Intel Quicksync is not being used. That does not depend on the resolution (4k in this case) but on the codec.
That CPU is from the Skylake generation, if you look at this link you can see the codecs it supports. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Quick_Sync_Video
The i5-6500 GPU will not be able to decode the 10-bit hevc codec, anything below will not be a problem.
In my opinion, before installing and configuring an Nvidia card in a server, for this it is preferable to change the CPU (and the motherboard if necessary). But it's a personal opinion.
What Wireguard does is create a virtual network, for this logically a network range is generated. Wireguard assigns an IP within that network range to each peer within the tunnel. And after that create the links to the networks that interest us. The most common and default configuration of the plugin is apoint-to-site tunnel, that means that Wireguard establishes a bridge between the network created to provide access to the local network.
The network range that the plugin uses is the one you have seen, 10.192.1.x (it does not have to be that but it is the one that the plugin configures) and Wireguard allows access to the local network from that virtual network.
The i5-6500 CPU has a GPU with integrated Intel Quicksync. You don't need an Nvidia GPU unless you need something else, such as decoding a more modern codec. It is much simpler and saves on power consumption if you use the Intel GPU and remove the dedicated Nvidia card.
by pairs I mean they are mirrored pairs 2 disks in mirrored configuration
I see you mean some kind of Raid1, but you still don't say if it's mdadm, ZFS... or something else.
Sometimes it is necessary to add a DNS to the configuration on the client. You can add this line in the interface section
DNS = 192.168.1.1
Assuming 192.168.1.1 is your router, otherwise modify it to suit your network.
Try it with the openmediavault-autoshutdown plugin
Something like this: https://www.westerndigital.com…b-3-1?sku=SDCZ74-032G-G46
That should work fine. My only recommendation would be to use a pendrive from a brand with some prestige.
32GB is more than enough. Remember to install the flasmemory plugin or the pendrive will die in no time.
I don't know what exactly "pairs" of units means. but once OMV is reinstalled you should be able to connect any disk, boot the system and mount existing file systems. Do not create filesystems or you will delete all data, just mount existing filesystems in the OMV GUI.
If those file systems are going to be permanently mounted on OMV, I would recommend not using NTFS and replacing it with native Linux file systems.
