Home Lab Update
Hey guys,I’ve been setting up my homelab with Proxmox on a Dell Optiplex (i5-6500TE, 8GB RAM). While learning Ansible with 1 master and 2 worker nodes, I ran into issues like RAM maxing out, VMs freezing, and SSH dropping.
I tried fixing it by limiting each VM’s RAM to 1GB, enabling ballooning, and adding a swapfile to the host.
Anyone faced similar issues on low-RAM Proxmox setups? How did you solve it?
