This is a quick post about the steps I’m using to move my jails from one host to another. This is bing done as I merge two hosts into one. I have not attempted to automate this, apart from the initial syncoid copying of data. This post is base roughly upon my Mastodon post from …
I recently moved the pkg01 jail from one host to another. I’m having trouble getting it to build packages. [pkg01 dan ~] % sudo poudriere testport -j 131amd64 -p dvl -z primary -i devel/py-pip [00:00:00] Error: Please load the linux module on the host using “kldload linux” On the host: [r730-01 dvl /etc/jail.conf.d] % sudo …

After booting, my vms are not started by sysutils/vm-bhyve. Why? Perhaps it’s because I did not set vm_list. Here is me starting them today up after booting the host yesterday. NOTE: I already have a not to myself to add VM monitoring to Nagios. [pro03 dan ~] % slocum Last login: Tue Jan 17 14:52:12 …

After encountering a rare instance where processing a FreeBSD commit caused FreshPorts to run low on resources, I want to investigate how limiting a jail might help this situation. I searched for ‘jail limit’ – found sentencing guidelines. I searched for ‘jail limit freebsd’ and found a FreeBSD Forums referring me to rctl(8), which I …
The FreshPorts dev, test, and stage websites are hosted on a server in my basement. Each instance consists of two jails: an ingress node – for pulling in new commits (and other data) into the database. a webserver node – for displaying the web pages. The new drives: Sometimes the zpool gets too close to …
This is just rough notes for myself. List the gpart output for each drive in my system. for drive in $(sysctl -n kern.disks) do gpart show $drive done gpart: No such geom: da11. => 40 9767541088 da10 GPT (4.5T) 40 8392664 – free – (4.0G) 8392704 9758048256 3 freebsd-zfs (4.5T) 9766440960 1100168 – free – …
Home Assistant is not friendly for plain installs. It seems designed for containers or running everything out of pip install. That, in itself, is a disturbing trend I’ve seen on several projects (what? you’re not running a git cloned image?). I’ve seen reports of people running containers etc. However, I want to run this on …

For years I’ve run the dev, test, and stage nodes for FreshPorts off servers in my basement. This meant that those hostnames have always pointed at my home IP address. I’d like to change that. I first started this using interactive commands (e.g. wg set) but found that approach unsatisfactory. I think directly editing the …

NOTE: I wrote this, got stuck, then went a slightly different direction: I stopped using wg set Instead, I updated the configuration files directly I was not satisfied with the wg approach Although it is great for modifying things on the file, I don’t think it helps novices learn Wireguard I’m leaving it here anyway. …
