PlausibleDeniability

Primary Docker host running all production workloads.

Specs

• OS: TrueNAS Scale 25.10.2.1
• CPU: Ryzen 9 3950X
• RAM: 32GB
• GPU: Nvidia RTX 2080 Ti (11GB VRAM)
• UPS: None

Storage Tiers

Tier	Mount	Use for
Local SSD (Crucial MX500 500GB)	/mnt/docker-ssd	Docker root, databases, write-heavy appdata, GPU/model caches
TrueNAS pool (tank, 2-drive ZFS mirror ~3.5TB)	/mnt/tank	General appdata, configs, backups, downloads
Unraid NFS	/mnt/unraid	Media libraries, Immich media

Docker Root

/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/docker-data

Compose Repo

/mnt/docker-ssd/docker/compose

Key Docker Networks

• ix-databases_shared-databases — shared DB access network (created by databases stack)
• pangolin — reverse proxy exposure network (created by newt)

GPU Usage

RTX 2080 Ti used by:

• Plex (hardware transcoding)
• immich-ml (CUDA face recognition)
• Whisper (CUDA speech-to-text, port 8786)
• Ollama light-tier inference (qwen2.5:14b and smaller)

Recommended models for 11GB VRAM:

Model	VRAM	Best for
qwen2.5:14b	~8GB	General use, coding, reasoning
qwen2.5-coder:7b	~5GB	Code tasks
deepseek-r1:8b	~5GB	Math, logic
phi4	~8GB	Analytical tasks

Remote Access

• Pangolin VPS + Newt for external services
• SSH from Windows 11

NFS Mounts (from Serenity)

• Serenity /mnt/user/data → /mnt/unraid/data (media libraries)
• Serenity /mnt/user/immich → /mnt/unraid/immich (Immich photo library)

Note: NFS mounts are not automatic at boot. Run after every TrueNAS restart:

sudo bash /mnt/tank/docker/scripts/mount-unraid-nfs.sh

Known Issues

• immich-ml intermittently unhealthy — investigate GPU/CUDA health
• docker-ssd has no redundancy — single point of failure for all appdata
• No off-site backup

Pending

• Add Pangolin resource + DNS for ai.paccoco.com
• Install fresh editor
• Set up private Gitea repo for .env file backups
