 #+SLUG:
 #+SUMMARY:
+
+I manage a lot of servers. Some are serving static content like this
+blog, with others running services like Nextcloud, ZNC, Shadowsocks,
+or Mumble. I have one or two game servers to play with my family and
+friends. These are spread across two providers because for cost and
+geographic reasons.
+
+I also have several machines running in my house, one running FreeNAS
+with some jails, another running Proxmox with several VMs and
+containers. I also have a couple smaller single board PCs like
+Raspberry Pis scattered around.
+
+Needless to say, I've got a lot to keep track of. I tried using a
+couple methods of keeping track of what I had running where, the user
+names, IP addresses, and links. I also had to worry about making sure
+my =~/.ssh/config= file was always up to date with VMs and containers
+I create.
+
+I'd already been playing with the idea of using an org-mode file to
+keep track of servers with VMs and containers, as it seemed like that
+would fit well with the hierarchical structure of org files.
+
+What I came up was a system where each server location/provider gets a
+heading, with the machines in that location as headings under it. If
+the machine runs VMs or containers, I just put those as headings under
+the host machine.

+
+Each machine gets a billet point list of what's running on it, with
+the text as a link if they're something I can open in-browser. That
+would be things like static content and web interfaces. I also write
+details about services underneath their bullet points if I have more
+details I want to remember.
