Hello, how do you document your home lab? Whether it’s a small server or a big one with firewall and more nodes. I have a small pc with Proxmox and there I have a VM with OpnSense. After I’ve entered my VPN as a interface in OpenSense, I noticed that I slowly lose the overview with the different rules that I have built in my firewall. And I know that my setup is relatively easy in comparison to others here in this community. I want to have a quick Overview at the various VMs, like the Lxc container, Docker containers that I have in this and the IP addresses that I have assigned to them. I search for a simple an intuitiv way for beginners.
I keep a very rudimentary README.md with some basic info on the services I run. I should probably set up a personal wiki to keep track of everything better
Perhaps more importantly, I also maintain a document with all the scheduled tasks that run, including what it is, how it’s defined, when it runs, and what device runs it. Really helpful for making sure cron jobs don’t run during a backup script or something
