Proxmox Clusters worth it?
Proxmox Clusters worth it?
Hey guys!
I have recently joined the selfhosting world after many years of thinking about it. Currently running casaOS with an assortment of containers. Mainly use nextcloud, paperlessNGX, and general file storage.
I am thinking of creating a proxmox cluster. Just wanted to ask for those who do. Is it worth it? And what services are you guys running?
I was thinking of using it for NAS, and a window VM and run other random things that I don't know yet.
Looking into grabbing some Lenovo M715q. Found a decent deal.
Thank you all in advance.

Yes, yes, yes, yes. For the tiny amount of overhead, even the remote console is worth it. Especially when you get into crazy "omg I have so much hardware" homelab territory and have stuff strewn over half your home. Being able to rely on Proxmox being pretty rock solid (if you're careful and smart about your upgrades and not constantly insisting on running bleeding edge), and being able to access the consoles and 'reset buttons' of all your VMs from a single computer is AMAZING.
Yeah I'm trying not to get to the point where half my house is computers... 😂
That does sound really good though! Thanks!
