Photon OS 5.0 is GA
Here it is https://github.com/vmware/photon/wiki/What-is-New-in-Photon-OS-5.0 Does someone know how the kernel live patching is working ? Thanks

Ansible and Photon OS (set package manager for ansible)
Maybe the package module can be extended to include tdnf? They even seem to publish a "tdnf" module: https://github.com/vmware/photon/blob/master/SPECS/ansible/tdnf.py

What do you use to run Docker
I run ESXI bare metal and then I use their PhotonOS that’s made to be a container host. https://github.com/vmware/photon

Strong power saving setup with load balancing within ha cluster of different machines?
Np, here is an excellent series on Kubernetes (k8s) - https://www.youtube.com/live/IcslsH7OoYo?feature=share the same youtuber has an amazing guide on how to build a k8s cluster on Raspberry Pi. You could do the same with Proxmox VMs for example and scale up/down your workloads that way. Ubuntu has an flavour of k8s specifically designed for power efficiency as well - https://microk8s.io/?_ga=2.40011622.572584182.1676996854-1728954411.1676996854 but the regular kind is also fine. If you run them in a lightweight Linux VM such as PhotonOS - https://github.com/vmware/photon - that would significantly reduce your power usage and you will also learn a lot of cool things along the way.

Got an r620 as the beginning piece to dormlab. What OS should I run on it? I'm thinking just Debian but I'm open to any suggestions.
ESXi with Photon OS for container hosts.

Want to try Docker: on a virtual machine
If you already have VMware ESXi, try VMware Photon OS. It's a Linux distro by VMware optimized for running as a virtual guest and comes with docker pre-installed. You can deploy it as an OVA or install from ISO. https://github.com/vmware/photon/wiki/Downloading-Photon-OS

Midarr - early preview of the next-generation media server. Free and open source.
Check out Vmware's container solution PhontonOS sometime. It works pretty well on esxi. https://github.com/vmware/photon
