- Consistent UserID/GroupID across all containers so that permissions are always correct
- A DNS service that resolves containers with a nice (real) hostname
*.depot.lanfrom other computers on your home network, and for container to container communication - A JBOD disk management system with minimal configuration, and fully transparent recovery/failure. MergerFS acts like a simple file proxy, and removed disks can be read on other computers with no additional tooling
- Ensure that virtual/JBOD disk is correctly mounted before allowing dependent programs/containers to start up.
- A lightweight status dashboard for checking system metrics
- A lightweight docker management system (Portainer) with customized templates for popular media-center applications
- Samba (SMB) shares automatically served from JBOD disk.
- Hard Disk montoring that uses S.M.A.R.T disk status to notify you if disks become unhealthy.
- NVIDIA driver installation (optional)
- MOTD dropins.
