This VM, running on the Main Network, runs the most important services that need to be up all the time. Namely, the TP-Link Omada controller software (which requires me to run Debian 10 instead of a newer version), pi-hole DNS server, and, in docker, xen-orchestra for managing Routerbox.

Power Management

A plot of recorded power usage in InfluxDB

Electricity is extremely expensive in the UK. So it is important to monitor power usage carefully. I use Tasmota flashed smart plugs to monitor and remotely turn on and off devices. I have made power.eda.gay and TasmotaCLI to log and manage these plugs. power.eda.gay is a stack of docker containers running an MQTT server and InfluxDB that records power usage. It runs on this VM.
