It’s semi stabilized:

4 Dell optiplex 5060s with Intel i5-8500 and 64 gb of ram. Each has 3 800GB sata ssds, with 2 1TB nvme drives; and a dual 10gb sfp nic.

That runs VMware vSphere with vSAN from VMUG. That runs AD, windows Admin center, puppet and some Linux VMs I have, mostly Rocky 8 but want to move to 9.

I also have one stand alone optiplex 5050 micro that is a AD controller. This is for cold starting the environment and needing DNS and AD up.

I think it depends on what you want to learn! I wanted to be able to clone a lot of systems I have at work, so I installed VMware via VMUG, then installed AD, radius, ADFS, SCCM, and some Linux hosts.

I have had good luck on Amazon searching “cyberpower battery for” then the model. Even if it’s not the exact one it tends to get me close. Sometimes it’s not obvious, then someone in the comments will mention it works with x thing!

At work we are mostly Rhel, so then at home I have some Rocky VMs and main system is Fedora. I used to run Arch, but then got lazy…

I have a vsphere cluster through vmug, with vsan, running AD, admin center, librenms, Postgres for dev, veeam, then some stuff I am testing for work like sccm and ADFS.
