For a school project I'm trying to set up an automated deployment with truenas. The goal is to have no user input and deploy truenas + services on truenas on a random device (or vm).
Is this a realistic idea? Does anyone have any hints or possible approaches?
For truenas itself I've been looking into editting the iso image and using preseeding or a script to automate the installer prompts but have seen no luck there.
A pxe server seems not possible because it needs to be local and havind one local is not practical for random users wich this is meant for.
To configure the truenas pool and networking I'm looking into using terraform or ansible this is what I'm trying to implement right now with limited succes: https://registry.terraform.io/providers/dariusbakunas/truenas/latest/docs
the services I'm looking to deploy are for example a nextcloud deployment on the truenas system I would also like to do this using terraform or ansible.
