What’s in your homelab? (July 2023)

  • For networking I have a Sophos XG Home box. Networking is 2 microtik 10gb switches with a Ruckus R710 for WiFi.

    What’s in your homelab? (July 2023)

  • It’s semi stabilized:

    4 Dell optiplex 5060s with Intel i5-8500 and 64 gb of ram. Each has 3 800GB sata ssds, with 2 1TB nvme drives; and a dual 10gb sfp nic.

    That runs VMware vSphere with vSAN from VMUG. That runs AD, windows Admin center, puppet and some Linux VMs I have, mostly Rocky 8 but want to move to 9.

    I also have one stand alone optiplex 5050 micro that is a AD controller. This is for cold starting the environment and needing DNS and AD up.

    What to do with new server?

  • I think it depends on what you want to learn! I wanted to be able to clone a lot of systems I have at work, so I installed VMware via VMUG, then installed AD, radius, ADFS, SCCM, and some Linux hosts.

    Researching/shopping replacement UPS batteries/sizing?
