i tried proxmox on RPi 4 briefly but it was too unstable for a reliable weather station - proxmox (pimox) is not supported on RPi and known to have problems and limitations (don’t get me started on overlay driver!)
proxmox 8 runs extremely well on bookworm on my mac mini. i pass through a usb-serial adapter to a container running several instances of weewx; my adapter is actually two serial ports not one, but i happily pass through two devices from the one usb port into one container. for encapsulation reasons i do not want and have not tried management of serial ports in a second container (yes, i could have a container for each weewx instance, but i have some co-dependencies between the instances that make it easier to treat as a group e.g. shared venv, ‘master’ report that binds to all the instance databases, …) mqtt broker has a container on mac/proxmox i have had one glitch where the passthrough broke - the perms for the pass-through devices suddenly set to 000 - but until it happens again i don’t have a good handle on it. rebooting the container did not work, rebooting proxmox did work, i was too focussed on getting the station up to properly analyse (these things only happen at very interesting data-gathering moments such as the peaks of storms…) ⊣GE⊢ > On 25 Feb 2024, at 10:46 am, vince <vinceska...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Not a proxmix user but this link might be worth a read > https://www.wundertech.net/how-to-pass-through-usb-devices-in-proxmox/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
