Some of the Redis best practices content has moved

This content from this markdown file has moved a new, happier home where it can serve more people. Please check it out : https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/azure-cache-for-redis/cache-best-practices.

NOTE: Client specific guidance listed below is still valid and should still be considered. I will update this document once all content has been moved.

TrueNAS

I will be moving from FreeNAS jails to ubuntu with docker, docker compose, and portainer. FreeNAS support and updates are lacking. There are many advantages to making the switch and with ZFS on linux I think FreeNAS may be a thing of the past. Stay tuned for a new guide of my latest setup. Check out my other gists for progress on the switch. https://gist.github.com/mow4cash/626275e095f7f90898944a85d66b3be6

I am currently working on updating this guide after updating my media server. I have added notes on things I no longer use but may update those sections in the future for users who still use them. As of now, I have everything working with the exception of Ombi and the plugins I no longer use.

[Updated on 2018.11.14] I finally made my GTX1070 working with my MBP for Pytorch and fast.ai. Below are the steps:

Environment

MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2016) with touch bar
OSX version: 10.13.6 (Mojave may not work yet as of now)
eGPU: Razer Core X + GTX 1070 (MSI)

Steps 1: Install Nvidia Web Driver

Add the following chunk to your existing ISC dhcpd.conf file.

if exists user-class and ( option user-class = "iPXE" ) {
    filename "http://boot.smidsrod.lan/boot.ipxe";
}
else {
    filename "undionly.kpxe";
}

	# Derived from: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/example-preseed.txt

	### Usage
	# We recommend to use the build-iso.sh script to build an image with embedded
	# preseed and other required files. In that case the preseed file gets loaded
	# automatically and all additional files are available to the installer.

	### Unattended Installation
