| You can verify that jitsi is working by ''ps -aux | jitsi'' and then visit jitsi.gnulinux.club (adjusted for your domain) to verify you can create and join a new meeting. Additionally, you can navigate to ''etc/turnserver.conf'' to see the entries jitsi created and likewise verify the server block it created at ''/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/jitsi.gnulinux.club''. You are now done! However, make sure to run regular snapshots on a cron job, and consider some simple shell scripts to monitor nginx, postgres, and fail2ban and if they fail, to restart them and email you. I also have a separate script that dumps the entire database daily with a time stamp. Here are the scripts currently in use: | You can verify that jitsi is working by ''ps -aux | jitsi'' and then visit jitsi.gnulinux.club (adjusted for your domain) to verify you can create and join a new meeting.

| Also, there's no point in setting this up unless you have regular backups! In my case, since this is a VM, I just use the same script as I use for all my other instances. That script powers down the VM, and copies a sparse file, then tarballs it. After restarting the VM, my backup workstation pulls down the tarballs (also sparse) on a set schedule, keeping approximately 90 days of restore points. The backup script I use is found here and, of course, this runs on the host OS (not the Synapse VM instance): | ln -s element-v1.10.12/ element |
