I am working on setting up a home server but I want it to be reproducible if I need to make large changes, switch out hardware, or restore from a failure. What do you use to handle this?

    This is pretty much my setup as well. Proxmox on bare metal, then everything I do are in Ubuntu LXC containers, which have docker installed inside each of them running whatever docker stack.

    I just installed Portainer and got the standalone agents installed on each LXC container, so it’s helped massively with managing each docker setup.

    Of course you can do whatever base image you want for the LXC container, I just prefer Ubuntu for my homelab.

    I do need to setup a golden image though to make stand-ups easier…one thing at a time though!
