Here's another great source for PVE scripts.

I have three VMs on Proxmox VE:

1. OPNsense as a router/firewall for my whole network,
2. "Zeus" (god from Greek religion, I usually name VMs as gods from Greek religion) - VM with multiple Docker containers: Jellyfin, Plex, Nextcloud etc.
3. UniFi - VM with just UniFi Controller in a Docker container. I wanted to separate the UniFi controller and Zeus' apps, so that's why they're two VMs.
4. Other VMs, I use Proxmox VE to spawn more VMs and test some solutions at work.

Hi

Sounds nice. I use a similar setup, only my server is a mini PC with 12gbs of RAM and 1TB msata. Instead of VMs I use Linux containers with ubuntu as base. Then I run full-fat applications like Wazuh, checkmk and docker containers. I tend to use one LXC per function. I even host my personal blog in this setup. No piercied firewall here for public facing services. I'm using clouflare tunnels and access.

I did similar a little over a year ago, I got tired of trying to justify things to keep my pi 3 in service. Had a ProxMox cluster of Intel NUCs running so just created lxc containers for everything I had on the pi. Now with HA!!

I do the same, but... I don't use my shared storage for my piholes. I have two of them, one on each miniPC in my Proxmox cluster, on local storage, and then PBS (with in guest iSCSI) backs them up to my backup storage.

Reason being, redundant DNS. I lose a node, or lose shared storage? I will still have DNS.
