Is there a guide to set something like this up? I have jellyfin on Ubuntu server and I’d very much like to get something that’s got an interface I can understand.

My name scheme is song names. I listen to allot of folk rock, so some names are hollowmoon or foxlore.

Its a little spicier than anas or pnas

You know Dasher, and Dancer, and Prancer, and Vixen. Comet, and Cupid, and Donner, and Blitzen…

I went with a SciFi ship theme, my main server is VMS-HORIZON (Virtual Machine Ship). The VMs have ship component names like AUDIO-CORE (navidrome) and VISUAL-CORE (Immich).

My Raspberry Pi is named ORBITER, like a orbiting shuttle/satellite, and the VM it has is called BEACON (for Gotify)

There are a TON of different tutorials and videos.

If you’re looking for a beginner friendly interface for your servers; I recommend “Cockpit” you just “sudo apt-get install cockpit” and it gives you a nice to use web interface to manage most of your servers, you can then install plugins as needed, for example you can install net bird or Pangolin to make it accessible from the internet.

If you want something more like what I’m doing here (Virtualization) you can try Canonical’s version of this which runs on ubuntu, They’re called LXD https://canonical.com/lxd/manage

Basically they’re tiny ritualized linux instances inside of your main ubuntu server (Containers) with their own kernel so that changes on the base server don’t bother your other apps.

I personally name my servers after Rain World iterators and creatures. I fear the day when I run out of names.

There are a ton of guides out there, but the problem with open source software is that you can make it as yours as you want so every deployment is different. You would be better off doing some googling on what you want to get to, and asking more specific questions. Everyone in the community loves to help, but we need to know how.

I name everything after celestial objects. Stars, galaxies, constellations, and nebula are all good sources of names. Not the ones with the random number names, stuff like Andromeda and Sirius

Close, LCC. I do have a portrainer instance for docker images, but I like the extra control that San lxc gives you

🤣 do you switch to elf names after the first 12?

Man I wish I spent time actually learning Proxmox, instead dumped everything into a headless Debian VM and called it a day.

Nice.

That’s AWESOME, I also named my NAS Atlas … because it carries the weight of all my backups

Good call on those names, you’re giving me some pretty cool ideas for my next servers

Utility mostly. My music stack vm is Music. Reversy is my reverse proxy. Photos? Yup that my immich vm. I’m boring lol
