Oh, that sounds like a fun project! Going to post it to Lemmy when you're done? I'm not familiar with proxmox. I see it's based on Debian, is it basically an os specifically for running vm instances or something?

I like the look of that generation Optiplex. My current main PC is a slightly upgraded XPS 8930, which is IMO one of the ugliest Dell cases. And the airflow has been a terrible challenge. But since it's not a standard board, I can't just pop it in a better case. And there's no way im buying a new mobo for an LGA 1151. So, I'm stuck until I build something new.

I wasn't specifically planning to. And yeah, proxmox is a VM management system. I've never used it myself, but it's apparently the "new hotness" and I've been meaning to do a VM/container build for a while.

I'm more familiar with FreeBSD jails, but not everything lends itself to that well. Bhyve was also something I looked at, but proxmox seems to leverage qemu and ZFS together.

Plus, since I've never actually used it, it gets me out of my comfort zone and I'll maybe learn something neat.
