Volans

The Flying Fish

  • Quadcore AMD A10-9620P
  • Radeon R5 Graphics (Integrated)
  • 8GB DDR4
  • 1TB Storage (Mirrored External 5400RPM)

Main Usage

This machine’s main purpose is to act as the primary DNS, Proxy and Jellyfin Media Server. It also acts as the cold storage NFS as it has plenty of very slow storage.

Tucana

The Tucan

  • Dual Core Pentium P6000
  • 3GB DDR3
  • No External Storage

Main Usage

This machine’s main purpose is to put the cluster in quorum and act as the backup DNS and proxy server. It also runs my local library.

Ara

The Altar

  • Quadcore Intel i5-2400 (3.1GHz)
  • Intel HD 2000 Graphics (Integrated)
  • 8GB DDR3
  • 4 Port Gigabit NIC
  • 4TB Hard Drive (Internal)

Main Usage

This is the central server of the cluster and was the first machine I started using as a home server (this round). It serves most of my services like OpenHAB, PartsDB and mirrors of my sites. It also serves as the main NFS data server for all my services.

It was also supposed to serve as the main firewall/router for the rest of the physical cluster. However, due to a bug in Realtek’s driver, the network card enters an error state under moderate usage and locks the kernel.
