-====== Linux: Basic Server Configuration ======
+====== Linux: Advanced SoHo- Server Configuration ======
+Welcome to my **Advanced Server Setup- Documentation**.
+In these chapters, i will explain how to setup and configure a full featured Active Domain- Network with Kerberos Single-Sign-On and Domain Integration of Linux Clients on a rootless containerized Docker- Installation including Nextcloud as personal Cloud to store all your Data and PIM locally and safe. That way you get a fully managed, Cloud enabled Homeoffice Network at low costs and much space for your personal data on your own pc.
+===== Current State =====
+This Document is currently under developement and chapters are not final right now. This will change in the Future.
+===== Usecase =====
+This is not a slim Setup - so if you only have old hardware or you are trying to figure out on yoru small office-pc, this may not work as well as you need it.
+You should have at least
+  * Large Harddrives: If you have maybe 1.5 TB of Data all togehter, you will need:
+      * 3 TB of space on your working directory / raid5 = 3 Harddrives, each 1 TB at least
+      * 6 TB of space on your backup / raid5 = 3 Harddrives, each 2 TB at least
+      * about maybe 100GB for the system / raid1 = 2 Harddrives
+      * about maybe 100GB for the databases / raid1 = 2 Harddrives
+      * maybe two extra drives for external backups, each 6 TB (you can also store that in the internet, but you will need a large space there too)
+  * A Server, that has relyable, quite fast internet in Download and Upload rates - while Upload may be more Importen
+  * The Server should be reachable all the time
+===== How to Start =====
+First, read this Page, get the Hardware and install the system. You should understand the Hardwaresetup and the installation of Linux and Raid- Systems first (as decribend beneath).
+Then, go on whith [[.:serverbasics:network-dyndns|DynDNS- Setup]] to make your PC reachable from the net.
+Next, setup docker as decribed in the Chapter. When you have portainer running, you can go like this:
+  - Nextcloud-AIO
+  - FreeIPA
+  - Authentik
+Then glue them together with SSO, SPNEGO and Nextcloud-SSO. Then you should have understood everything, you can now play around on your own.
-These setting here are an advice to think about when setting up a new linux- machine (here on an opensuse distrubution, which i really like).
 ===== Subpages =====
 <catlist content:serverbasics -nohead -noNSInBold -sortAscending -sortByTitle -noAddPageButton -maxDepth:1>
+===== Basic System =====
+As Hardware, you should have at least:
+  * a single standard Desktop- PC with 4 or more Cores
+  * equipped with at least 16 GB of RAM and
+  * for failure of Discs a swappable mounting Rack to contain at least 5 Discs (should not have Raid as Hardware, as Software Raid in Linux is much more efficient!)
+  * Additional at least one external Disk, you may use to copy your Backups to and store them on a different physikal location

 Always use LVM, as this has many benefits. On OpenSuSE btrfs is the best Filesystem if you disable Quotas on datapartitions.
+==== Example-Setup ====
-==== Raided EFIBOOT ====
+My small Homeoffice-Server described here, will have 5 Disks:
-There are some problems when raiding the efi-boot. I would suggest to use:
+  * 2x SSD with 2 TB each
+  * 3x HDD with 4 TB each
+My Setup will look like this:
+The SSDs will bothe have the same Layout:
+  * 1x 1GB Raid1 FAT32 EFIBOOT
+  * 1x 100%FREE LVM2 PV in Volumegroup vgssd
+      * 100GB Raid1 lvroot btrfs,compress=zstd:3 root
+      * 50GB Raid1 lvmariadb xfs for docker service mariadb
+      * Space left blank for other high performance- services or growth
+The HDDs will have:
+  * 1x 100%Free LVM2 PV Volumegroup vgdata
+      * 1x 100GB Raid5 xfs, home and docker-service
+      * 1x 4,4TB Raid5 lvbackup btrfs,compress=zstd:7 for internal daily Backup
+==== Raided EFI-BOOT ====
+Nowadays, UEFI is always the best choice to boot. UEFI- Boot is quite straight forward: You first take some device, make it gpt- partitioned, create a partition (i would at least take 500 MB today, better 1GB in size), format that partition with FAT32 and mark the partition as efi-boot via the partition flag. Thats usually all for a small office system. After some OS installed to that partition in a UEFI- way, the bios can load those files and start the OS.
+But: Unfortunatelly, the designers of UEFI forgot, that if your not using hardware- raid (which i don't recommend, as your losing the ability to switch harddisks between your hardware), there is no standard way to raid the partition as FAT32 is not suitable for that while it would overwrite the parts in the partition, that are needed by MD Raid1 to store its metadata.
+Fortunatelly the designers of OSS software- raid were smarter: They found a way to work around that: They made a special Version of MD Metadata called V1.0 which will store its Metadata at the end of the partition - so it will not interfere with FAT32. For FAT32 it can work as usual and for MD-Tools it will be able to detect the devices as Raid1.
+But still - LVM will not work in this case. MD Partitions and Raid1 need to be outside of the LVM-Partition.
+So I would suggest to use two disks both partioned with GPT and same sized efi-partitions (as said, at least 500 Megabytes in Size to store Bios or UCODE updates for Firmware Updater) and before creating the FAT32 filesystem do software raid on it. E.g.:
 <code>
@@ Zeile 28: / Zeile 105: @@
 The important part is metadata=1.0 - this format has especially designed to fit the needs of raid1 of fat/efi- systems.
+You than install your Linux Bootmanager / EFIBOOT to that md- Device. If its not found in the beginning of the installation, scan for raid- devices or just create it while installing with the line above.
+=== Recover faulty Disc ===
+If some Raid- Disc becomes faulty, it will show up like this (its for raid5, but raid1 will look alkie):

+Maybe instead of removed you can see some entry like faulty instead of removed - this is, when the array had just failed.
+To add a new device, you need an empty partiotion with at least the expected size (here 696 GB would be enough):
+<code>
+obel1x:~ # fdisk -l /dev/sdc
+Disk /dev/sdc: 698.64 GiB, 750156374016 bytes, 1465149168 sectors

+That Partition should have the Type Linx Raid. If you don't have that, create it with partition- tool of kde or what you want.
+Now you can simply add the device to the raid and it will begin to work:

 ==== LVM ====
-LVM is a powerful partition-management-layer and should always be used, when there is some none low-end hardware present. If you can use the **KDE Partitioning- Tool** (which means having Plasma=KDE Desktop compatible support), the support is very inuitive and opens a lot of flexibility whne handling partitions, like adding more disk space or moving partitions, but also on console this offers good functionality. OpenSuSE offer to create LVM- Styled system setup in installation optionally (not by default). If you can: use it.

-Noadays, raid1 or raid5 for system without LVM is outdated. Those things are integrated in LVM - so use it!
+For our Setup we want to have the Linux Base System on Raid1, because Raid1 offers the flexibility to only have one phisical device that will work for its own without configuring. If you want to have the system on one disk, this is really nice.
-First, creat a volume group with two same size partitions on two discs, than create a raid1 on it (for example):
+So first, create a partition on both disks which is maximum in Size. Than, create a Volume group containing those partitions and finally, create a raid1 on it (for example):
