Hi, I have two Dell T110 ii. One, with more ram and slightly faster CPU acts as main server. I have it running as NFS server, one VM with a couple of services and two apps (nextcloud and immich). Happy with the setup but worried about hardware of main server failing given age. So I have replication set up (pulls from slave to main). The dataset structure is the same. Is it a matter of installing the same apps and VM on slave, load the config of main onto slave and then just leave it to replication to keep the two machines cloned? I switch on slave only on Sundays to allow replication activity. It is some form of backup I guess, although not perfect.
