I’m currently running HA on a Pi3… it works fine, but it’s now a single point of failure.

I have some new hardware arriving to run VMs in and was intending to move HA to it, but now I’m wondering if I can have HA in 2 places for fault tolerance.

I’m aware that there’s no built-in failover options, but has anyone done something similar?

    Ok, yep, if the house burns down (been there, done that), HA is priority 0.

    But good point about the offsite backup + compose, I hadn’t considered that - thanks.

    Interesting that you’re using a container inside a VM… is that just because you’re using a VM-only hypervisor (ie Xen) or was there another reason?

    I’ve heard good things about Proxmox, but no idea if it has a container / VM watchdog function.

      Yeah is type 1. But it pools supports network storage and is free, and I know how to use it.
