I had some problems with snapshots in 4.x, but an update fixed that.

My experience with it has not been all that great. Proxmox 3.x I think will be EOL before long though.

I can't imagine that Pis are better than a virtualized system, but I've never used them. Proxmox would be good for those types of light weight loads. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP From: "Eric Kuhnke" < eric.kuh...@gmail.com > To: af@afmug.com Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2016 8:45:10 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] PowerDNS vs Bind for Resolver Power is how expensive? At one of the largest carrier hotels/biggest IX points in north america, I've calculated the cost of power to be around 23 cents/kWh... That's with the building providing multiply redundant 2 megawatt generators, diverse city power feeds, and taking into account the building's cost for air conditioning. Based on these calculations for a high density, high power colo cabinet one 208V 30A circuit = 6240W You can use about 85% of that safely, so you've got 5304W load possible if you use 5304W for a month 24x7 you've got 3946kWh consumed in a month $900/month for that electrical circuit divided by 3946 = 22.8 cents per kWh so uhm... a 15W Intel NUC sized thing running solid for a month is 11.16 kWh consumed in a month, or about $2.50 of electricity. Does it really make a difference to use a raspberry pi?

I keep spares of everything in case of failure, but they're cheap enough you could set up a huge VRRP cluster or something to eliminate any down time. Power is expensive at the building with our fiber, and by using Pis I'm able to keep the air conditioner off and save a good chunk of money every month.

I think of them more as “useful toys”…. For servers I need redundant disc (minimum two Intel SSD w/hardware RAID1), redundant power etc… could be blades or physical servers. Now one could argue that for something like DNS, you have redundancy via the application too … I completely get that ..

I like they take up very little rack space and power and with quad cores are pretty fast and now they support Centos. Have you had any issues with flash dying after too many writes?
