I have a somewhat grossly overpowered server (40 cores/256gb RAM) running about seven VMs. But I want to also learn Kubernetes. Harvester seems like an opportunity to do both, keeping the legacy VMs alive while migrating their workloads over slowly.
Looking forward to your please-make-it-suitable-for-us-dummies writeup!
How has harvester been for you? I'm especially curious how you are dealt with longhorn in particular when all your vms are on one physical machine and you get no real redundancy.
I *really* want to move to something like this.

Of course! I'll be pumping out a lot of Harvester content in the next few weeks.

It has been very stable.
I love how easy it is to configure everything since it's Kubernetes.
I back up my machines to an S3 bucket if I need to restore them.
It can be tough to have only one machine, but none of the data I have on Harvester is important and can be re-downloaded.
