# Ansible NAS

|
|
|
|
After getting burned by broken FreeNAS updates one too many times, I figured I could do a much better job myself using
|
|
just a stock Ubuntu install, some clever Ansible config and a bunch of Docker containers.
|
|
|
|
## What This Sets Up
|
|
|
|
* An awesome dashboard to your home server (Heimdall)
|
|

|
* An RSS newsfeed reader - Miniflux
|
|
* A Dropbox replacement via Nextcloud
|
|
* Various ways to see stats about your NAS - Glances, dashboards in Grafana
|
|
* A backup tool - allows scheduled backups to Amazon S3, OneDrive, Dropbox etc
|
|
* An IRC bouncer and web-based client
|
|
* Source control with Gitea
|
|
* SSL secured external access to some applications via Traefik
|
|
* A Docker host with Portainer for image and container management
|
|
* An automatic dynamic DNS updater if you use Cloudflare to host your domain DNS
|
|
|

## What This Could Do
|
|
|
|
Ansible-NAS can run anything that's in a Docker image, which is why Portainer is included. A NAS configuration is a pretty personal thing based on what you download, what media you view, how many photos you take...so it's difficult to please everyone.
|
|
|
|
That said, if specific functionality you want isn't included and you think others could benefit, add it and raise a PR!
|
|
|
|
## What This Doesn't Do
|
|
|
|
Ansible NAS doesn't set up your disk partitions, primarily because getting it wrong can be incredibly destructive.
|
|
That aside, configuring partitions is usually a one-time (or very infrequent) event, so there's not much to be
|
|
gained by automating it.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
:skull: Before running anything, check out the playbook and understand what it does. Run it against a VM and make sure you're happy. ***Do not*** blindly download code from the internet and trust that it's going to work as you expect. :skull:
|
|
|
|
1. Enable the Ubuntu Universe repository: `sudo add-apt-repository universe`
|
|
2. Install Ansible: `sudo apt install ansible`
|
|
3. `git clone https://github.com/davestephens/ansible-nas.git && cd ansible-nas`
|
|
4. Copy `group_vars/all.yml.dist` to `group_vars/all.yml`.
|
|
5. Open up `group_vars/all.yml` and follow the instructions there for configuring your Ansible NAS.
|
|
6. If you plan to use Transmission with OpenVPN, also copy `group_vars/vpn_credentials.yml.dist` to
|
|
`group_vars/vpn_credentials.yml` and fill in your settings.
|
|
7. Copy `inventory.dist` to `inventory` and update it.
|
|
8. Install the dependent roles: `ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml` (you might need sudo to install Ansible roles)
|
|
9. Run the playbook - something like `ansible-playbook -i inventory nas.yml -b -K` should do you nicely.
|
|
|

## Documentation

|
|
|
## Migrating from FreeNAS
|
|
|
|
Assuming that your Ubuntu system disk is separate from your storage (it should be!):
|
|
|
|
1. Ensure you have a working backup of your data.
|
|
2. Check that the working backup you think you have actually works.
|
|
3. SSH to the server and run `zpool list` to determine available ZFS pools.
|
|
4. `zpool import <pool_name>` against each of the pools you want to attach.
|
|
5. `chown -R root:root /mnt/<pool_name>` to fix the ownership of the data.
|
|
6. Follow the Quick Start instructions above.
|
|
|
|
## Hardware
|
|
|
|
Ansible NAS should work on any recent Ubuntu box. Development is done on Ubuntu Server 18.04.1 LTS running on an HP Microserver.

Development of Ansible-NAS is carried out in [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) - you'll get some nice
|
|
recommended extensions and task setups if you do the same.
