I’m obviously not very good at this, but my issue with OpenMediaVault was less the software side than finding hardware to reliably work with it. For instance trying with an old low profile PC, wake on lan didn’t work half of the time so I gave up, and just let the drives sleep. But they would also fail to wake up sometimes. All in all a NAS is not that expensive (I have one I bought for 400 or so, and it’s lasting for 15 years now…), so it’s hard to justify the endless tweaking of a solution that could work the same if done well. BTW even with a commercial NAS , ssh access is configurable, major scripting languages are there, and recent ones have docker I think. For the really custom stuff, like you I use Raspberry Pis that mount the NAS files as needed.
