HomeBox extra modules

Extra roles for homebox, not included in the core distribution.

To use these roles, make sure the path, relative or absolute, is included in the role_path variable, for instance:

roles_path = .:{{ playbook_dir }}/../../common/roles/:/home/andre/git/homebox-extra-modules

You can then run the role(s) using the dynamic role selection syntax, for instance:

ROLE=home-dual-storage ansible-playbook -v -l install.yml

Current roles

Separate home storage roles

HomeBox uses two storages location for user files: /home/users and /home/archives. The first one is used for current emails, while the second for email archives. This allows to use a cheaper - albeit slower - storage for email archives. This can be used both for a home physical server or a virtual cloud server.

home-live-storage

This role allows to store live emails (/home/users) on a separate dedicated disk. See the dedicated documentation in the role, for more details.

home-archives-storage

This role allows to store archive emails (/home/archives) on a separate dedicated disk. See the dedicated documentation in the role, for more details.

home-dual-storage

This role allows to store both live (/home/users) and archive emails (/home/archives) on a separate dedicated disk. See the dedicated documentation in the role, for more details.
