Too bad it auto-generates a new one in the same menu :)
Usually a lurker.
Maybe I should’ve just shut up and thought for a bit longer before writing that comment…
If you want to talk to me elsewhere, you know how to reach me.

Like RAM?
Not that important. I ran it with ¼-½ of the recommended RAM (1GB RAM per TB)
How do you troubleshoot Alpine? The one time I tried (later needed to use Debian because the OS was not supported) I could almost only find ressources in conjunction with containerization.
I am very much a Windows user and my journey went like this:
Raspberry Pi with OMV -> SSH on OMV -> Mostly Terminal on OMV -> Docker + Portainer to deploy containers -> Transition to docker-compose -> Setup my own VM with Debian completely in the CLI (excluding the first setup of the VM)
I use Linux (primarily Debian because of Raspberry. I don’t lile what I hear about Ubuntu) usually for VMs/servers and Windows as the client OS
ilo is the brand name.
You want OOBM/IPMI
Time to pull out the second page
I share Jellyfin.
Behind a Reverse Proxy with 2FA that breaks client support.
So only web browser :)
Just be aware that putting Jellyfin behind a Reverse Proxy that redirects to external auth services, breaks client support that is not in a browser.
Thus you either white-/blacklist specific server access paths or set up accounts that may relay the loging credentials.
Maybe something like LDAP may work but I can’t say how well it works as I havent used that.
I configured my immich to sort the photos by YYYY/MM/#original-photo-name#_assetnumber
Should I leave immich, I could still recover or view my files
The same reason why immich fucking rocks.
Search pictures by “ocean” or “moon” and get shown related pictures.
If those doc managemnt solutions can also do OCR it’s a doublw win.
It’s not like you can’t do it (I did save the original SSD and replaced it with a new one and installed TrueNas Scale). It’s just not intended to do from uGreens perspective.
Edit: I think I used either of these guides I used on how to open and how to install the new OS:

Oh yeah. The HDD indicator bays are partly non-functional as well.
But you can restore some functionality with scripts you run periodically with cron. Juat search “ugreen dxp4800plus led cli github” to find it.
Edit2:
And I only chose a uGreen NAS due to the Kickstarter price. Because that was a 40% price reduction.
At least I got a solid Model that is really nice. It also has a magnetic metal dust cover Ican easily remove if needed (even easier than the one on my pc case front panel which is a Fractal Design North)
We use DS223j’s at work for our clients as backup targets.
Fast to set up and configure from a total beginner up to experienced IT personal.
And I set up NFS, Samba and ACLs in my own Debian NAS.
It aint so sleek and braindead-simple like a Syno does it.
Lol! Not like uGreen put any roadblocks to running your own OS (like disabling the watch dog feature in the BIOS and some other setting to enable custom boot).
And you don’t have any fan control on their NAS. Either you estimate and configure correcrly or you need to schedule downtime.
Actual servers let you live tune (some of) the power settings. Synology supports changing the fan profile in the live OS.
In regards to performance? Probably yes.
In regards to IO connectivity? It depends.
Maybe with something like a PCIe to SAS/SATA backplane?
You could limit the firewall to IP range(s) of your domestic (and other places of interest like work) connection.
This way they won’t come even close to even logging in.
And then you could do the other hardening on top.
I set mine up with Authelia 2FA and restricted media deletion to one user: The administrator.
All others arent allowed to delete. Not even me.
Veeam community edition is fine for most things.
If you are cheeky, generate yourself an NFR license on their website.
Edit: Veeam plans a Linux version for VBR 13.
Veeam Agent can run stand-alone on both Linux (only specific distros are actually supported. Non-supported might work) and Windows
Using Veeam.
It’s whole purpose is doing backups from small deployments up to the datacenter level.
Might be worth taking a look.
And the documentation is very good.
Not to mention: Snapshots.
Yes.
But the menu is after you generate a new password (at least in the extension)
Thus you might not know if the password is a new one or the one you generated. And that might confuse some.
