#k3s

2025-05-12

Has anyone tried running #universalblue / #ublue / #bluefin headless? I want to use it to run #k3s and #ollama on an AMD ryzen mini PC as a lab machine to play around with K8s and ollama at home to try things out that I don't often get to do at work. I know I can use the base ublue image but that looks like a PITA to install compared to just running bluefin headless

For science, fun and profit, I set up a #WireGuard mesh network for my #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #RockyLinux and #Kubernetes #homelab:

foo.zone/gemfeed/2025-05-11-f3

There's also a mesh generator, which I wrote in #Ruby.

Aaaand turns out the only PVC I had forgotten to fix with the aforementioned longhorn config was Mastodon... So it went down and getting it back up was PAINFUL

#kubernetes #homelab #selfhosted #longhorn #k3s #k8s

I am getting SO tired of Longhorn, nothing ever works, volumes do not attach, and when they do, the container doesn't detect it, and it required manual intervention

If only Ceph had S3 sync compatibility, it would be a no brainer, but at this point, I might as well try it out...

#homelab #selfhost #longhorn #k3s #k8s #ceph #kubernetes

6k Leute im #k3s slack Channel und keiner Antwortet mir. *seufz*

vermutlich ists einfach und ich bin einfach zu dumm...

Wow, that was a long outage this time (yeah, again)

One node handling a lot of traffic crashed, bringing down a bunch of others in cascade

But impossible to bring the whole cluster back up

The reason ? I had changed the flannel-backend some time ago, and reverted the config, but that never ACTUALLY reverted to default, so it had to be manually be defined to default

Wow, what a roller coaster

And again, Mastodon coming down for no apparent reason, aside from the fact I was trying to export some rss feed a bit hastily 🤔

I really have to fix this promtail deployment to do some delayed debugging

Well, bugger. I seem to have accidentally entirely deleted #VictoriaMetrics from my #K3s cluster while converting it from hand-installed to Helm-managed.

It's a good job that there was nothing particularly important in it.

The problem I have now is that Longhorn is now stuck while provisioning a PV while bringing VM back up again.

#homelab

Homelab update, since I added those new nodes to my k3s cluster, I cannot connect through Netbird from my iOS device, and I have no idea why...

I'm really close to giving a serious try to Tailscale with a private Headscale instance, just to see how it differs in a similar environment

#homelab #k3s #cluster #netbird #tailscale #headscale #networking #wireguard

Also es ist scheinbar der gleiche bug wie hier.

gitlab.opencode.de/bmi/opendes

Wenn hier zufällig Leute sind, die sich mit #Kubernetes bzw speziell mit #k3s auskennen. Bitte melden. Ich schlaf ne Nacht drüber. #GerneBoosten

Evtl. Kann mich Longhorn retten, sonst muss ich die letzte Version installieren bei der es noch ging.

Hi everyone 👋 I guess it's time for my #introduction !
I present myself under the nickname of DocYeet, I am a software engineer who cares deeply about data privacy, digital sovereignty and decentralized tech in general

You will see me ramble about stuff like #k3s, #longhorn and #proxmox, as they take most of my time

You guessed it, I spend countless hours on my #homelab for #selfhosting :)

#Linux #FOSS #DataPrivacy #Infosec #Decentralization #TechFediverse #opensource #DigitalSovereignty

Es läuft! Mein #OpenDesk (by #ZenDiS ) deployment geht!

Stack: #Debian 12 als VPS von #Hetzner mit #k3s (aber deaktiviertem #traefik; dafür nginx-ingress )

I need some help from the and community, I have reached full analysis paralysis!

I have 3 weeks left to determine what hardware to buy for my my goal is to run & in production well enough that It can seamlessly support my wife to

I was leaning towards cluster or for and storage, but might all be overkill

Have determined I have these options are similar price & energy budget points:

вирішив перенести свої сервіси з k3s на k0s.... і зіштовхнувся з дивовижними проблемами...

На лоад-балансері блокується порт 80 та 993...
Може ще якісь блокуються, складно сказати, але що з цим робити поки зовсім не знаю.

Якось воно працює дуже дивно.
Якщо хтось може щось підказати - буду радий.

Forgejo, Nextcloud und Homeassistant erzeugen viel Last beim Single Node #k3s auf einem Raspberry Pi, aber nur beim Helm Upgrade. Ich frage mich, ob ein Cluster Upscale einen großen Unterschied machen würde.

I just ran into some of the weirdest result of missconfiruation
K3s dropping dns requests between some hosts, without apparent reason
Turns out, to provision some remote machines, I had used SSH tunnels, via Ansible
Those “localhost” addresses ended up as WireGuard endpoint on each machine, so they could communicate without issue with other non-tunnelled machines, but they couldn’t communicate locally, despite being on the same network

You certainly love K3s much and we make sure it's easy to forget about it by being trouble free.

But let's show our love and head over to Reddit and upvote K3s as the "preferred Kubernetes flavor for homelab users" 👍 [reddit.com/r/kubernetes/commen]

I have a call for the K3s community... You certainly love K3s much and we make sure it's easy to forget about it by being trouble free.

#Kickstarter campaign for the new #ZimaBoard 2 just launched yesterday.
I considered buying the first-gen back then, but skipped it due to the outdated CPU.
Version 2 looks much more promising and could be a great upgrade for my #HomeLab – especially for services that don’t run well on #RaspberryPi in my #k3s cluster.

…also, so many more tools and gadgets i finally got to try out like #k3s, #mqtt, #embedded #rust, #valkey, #beszel, #tailscale, #nixos, #jsr, and much more 🤓

(somehow the list with stuff yet to try ain't getting shorter 😑)
