  • Synology Lost the Plot with Hard Drive Locking Move

    TrueNAS also has an 'Apps' feature, which are basically glorified helm chart installs on k3s that TrueNAS installs for you. But I prefer more control so I have k8s on the Linux VM. Whats also great is that the k8s on the Linux VM can use the TrueNAS storage via democratic-csi.

  • NVMe-OF with Non-SSD Drives: Worth the Switch?

    The interface software regarding is not a worry of mine, as democratic-csi does the storage management for me, thus the compatibility it is not limited to the application using the storage per se, as this is handled by Kubernete's CSI drivers, being application-agnostic when utilizing the storage provided.My main worry is not latency, but rather RAM

    in k3s, i'm using https://github.com/democratic-csi/democratic-csi (was using iSCSI before, now everything is NFS)
  • Which block storage solution to self host ?
    4 projects | /r/kubernetes | 13 Sep 2022
    Have you checked this out? GitHub democratic-csi I have yet to test this in my @home K8s cluster. It supports iSCSI volume management for FreeNAS, Synology and other CSI backends.
  • What's the best way to utilize a NAS with Docker services on separate machine?
    1 project | /r/selfhosted | 29 Aug 2022
    If you ever migrate from docker up to kubernetes, then take a look into democratic-csi. For a modest homelab, it is a valid option (said from somebody who manages a small homelab and plays around with kubernetes).
  • Optimizing zvols for ext4 use?
    4 projects | /r/zfs | 16 Mar 2022
    For persistent storage have you looked into using TrueNAS with a CSI provider with your container orchestrator? I'm assuming your orchestrator is Nomad or Kubernetes.
  • You need Rancher on truenas scal
    2 projects | /r/truenas | 12 Jan 2022
    Yes, Rancher does support FreeNAS, TrueNAS. and Scale using the storage class provider https://github.com/democratic-csi/democratic-csi It's important to remember Rancher is the server. And in this case, you need to ask the question does the k8s cluster that Rancher is managing support this storage class provider? If you are using RKE the answer is Yes.
  • From Docker (-Compose) to K3s?
    1 project | /r/selfhosted | 1 Jan 2022
    I use https://github.com/democratic-csi/democratic-csi to mount nfs/iscsi shares (and manage the shares) from my SAN (truenas box).
  • iSCSI and multiple pods - does it work?
    2 projects | /r/kubernetes | 27 Dec 2021
    iSCSI with democratic-csi (https://github.com/democratic-csi/democratic-csi) works great for me on truenas. I use iSCSI for any PVs that don't need to be shared and NFS for anything I'd like to share between different pods (like movies, music).
