//peertube// Latest Updates: https://wiki.haacksnetworking.org/doku.php?id=computing:peertube As part of the Haack’s Networking business, I run a virtualization stack on a Supermicro 6028U-TRTP+ Dual 8-core Xeon E5-2650 2.2Ghz, with 384GB RAM, which has 576 virtual CPUs to allocate, or 24*12*2, which is threads *cores*sockets. This host uses Debian and virsh+qemu and a collection of bash scripts to manage…
//preseed// Latest Updates: https://wiki.haacksnetworking.org/doku.php?id=computing:preseed I created my own virtualization stack which is complete with version control, file backups, full image backups and more.
