Hello selfhosted !

Continuing my journey of setup up my home k3s cluster.

I’ve been asking myself if Longhorn might be overkill for my home cluster,here’s what i did:

3 machines running k3s each. One of them has a storage in Raid 5 and I dont want to use any storage from the other two.

Thing is, i had to configure replicas to 1 in longhorn for my pv to be green.

Hence my question, since data is already replicated in the array, shouldn’t I just use a NFS storage class instead?

Thanks !

    Sounds like NFS is a way to go in your case. Longhorn adds for your setup unnecessary resource overhead and complexity.
