Hi,
Can you explain logistically how this works. Eg: You are my 'backup'. A vulnerability is deiscovered requiring lemmy to be updated.
What is the process that occurs?
P
I'm replying from the balcony of my cruise ship so I'm unable to give this response the detail it deserves. And, we'd need to decide this as a group. But essentially as my backup, if there's an incident requiring a prompt action and I'm unreachable, you'd have credentials to do the needful.
Maybe we use a shared spreadsheet to track instance statuses including an in/out status for the primary admin. So if there's a new vulnerability, it's unpatched on the instance and the primary is out, the backup or the backup to the backup handles it.
Interesting. I use docker compose so would be able to assist other people using a similar setup. I feel there would need to be a document that specifies what to do and what is expected if something goes wrong.
definitely, and since we've realized we're running the same images, it may not be a bad idea to team up around similar deployments. For instance I might as well standardize on the easy deploy project. I'm using ansible now but modified it to use ubergeek's arm64 images. might as well just use his whole project.
I will somehow post how to do things do you can see how it works before you decide. Its pretty basic.
