# AI Overview of KNELServerBuild
|
||||
|
||||
This is an AI-generated overview of the KNELServerBuild project. The analysis is based on a read-only review of the project's files.
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Overview
|
||||
|
||||
The KNELServerBuild project is an Infrastructure as Code (IAC) repository for provisioning and configuring Linux servers. It is based on a collection of bash scripts that automate the installation of packages, configuration of services, and security hardening of the system. The project is designed to be used with the `FetchApply` tool, which is not included in this repository.
|
||||
|
||||
The main entry point of the project is the `ProjectCode/SetupNewSystem.sh` script. This script performs the following actions:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Initializes the environment:** Sets up project paths and sources a shell framework (`KNELShellFramework`) and project-specific includes.
|
||||
* **Installs packages:** Installs a wide range of packages, including monitoring agents (check_mk, snmp), security tools (auditd, aide, lynis, clamav), administration tools (cockpit, webmin), and common utilities (tmux, vim, zsh).
|
||||
* **Configures services:** Configures various services like Postfix for email, `rsyslog` for system logging, `snmpd` for monitoring, `lldpd` for network discovery, and `cockpit`.
|
||||
* **Security Hardening:** It runs a series of security hardening scripts from `Modules/Security`, including `secharden-ssh.sh`, `secharden-wazuh.sh`, `secharden-2fa.sh`, and `secharden-scap-stig.sh`.
|
||||
* **OAM:** It runs an OAM (Operations, Administration, and Maintenance) script for LibreNMS.
|
||||
* **Conditional Logic:** It has conditional logic to apply different configurations based on whether the host is a physical Dell server, a virtual machine (KVM or Hyper-V), or a Raspberry Pi.
|
||||
|
||||
## What I Like
|
||||
|
||||
* **Well-structured:** The project is well-structured, with separate directories for code, configuration files, documentation, and tests. This makes it easy to understand and maintain.
|
||||
* **Modularity:** The use of modules for different functionalities (e.g., security hardening, OAM) is a good practice. It allows for easy extension and modification of the project.
|
||||
* **Comprehensive:** The project covers a wide range of aspects of server provisioning, from package installation to security hardening.
|
||||
* **Conditional Logic:** The use of conditional logic to adapt the configuration to different environments is a good feature.
|
||||
* **Good commenting:** The scripts are generally well-commented, which makes them easier to understand.
|
||||
|
||||
## Areas for Improvement
|
||||
|
||||
* **Error Handling:** The scripts could benefit from more robust error handling. For example, the `SetupNewSystem.sh` script uses `set -e` to exit on error, but it does not have any specific error handling logic.
|
||||
* **Idempotency:** The scripts are not fully idempotent. For example, some of the `curl` commands will re-download files even if they already exist. This could be improved by adding checks to see if the files already exist.
|
||||
* **Testing:** The project has a `Project-Tests` directory, but it is not clear how the tests are run or what they cover. The testing framework could be improved to provide more comprehensive coverage of the project's functionality.
|
||||
* **Secrets Management:** The scripts contain some hardcoded secrets, such as the `relayhost` for Postfix. These secrets should be managed using a secrets management tool like HashiCorp Vault or AWS Secrets Manager.
|
||||
* **Configuration Management:** The project uses a collection of shell scripts to manage the configuration of the system. While this works, it can be difficult to manage and maintain in the long run. A configuration management tool like Ansible, Puppet, or Chef would be a better choice for this task. The project already installs `ansible-core`, so it would be a natural progression to move the logic to Ansible playbooks.
|
||||
* **Documentation:** The project has some documentation, but it could be improved. For example, the `README.md` file could provide more information on how to use the project and how to contribute to it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
* **Improve Error Handling:** Add more robust error handling to the scripts to make them more reliable.
|
||||
* **Improve Idempotency:** Make the scripts more idempotent to avoid unnecessary re-downloads and re-configurations.
|
||||
* **Improve Testing:** Implement a more comprehensive testing framework to ensure the quality of the project.
|
||||
* **Use a Secrets Management Tool:** Use a secrets management tool to manage the secrets in the project.
|
||||
* **Use a Configuration Management Tool:** Use a configuration management tool like Ansible to manage the configuration of the system.
|
||||
* **Improve Documentation:** Improve the documentation of the project to make it easier to use and contribute to.
|
||||
|
||||
Overall, the KNELServerBuild project is a good starting point for an IAC repository. It is well-structured and covers a wide range of aspects of server provisioning. However, there are some areas where it could be improved. By addressing the areas for improvement, the project can be made more robust, reliable, and maintainable.

# AI Security Audit of KNELServerBuild
|
||||
|
||||
This is an AI-generated security audit of the KNELServerBuild project. The analysis is based on a read-only review of the project's files.
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary of Findings
|
||||
|
||||
The KNELServerBuild project has a good security posture overall, but there are a few areas that could be improved. The most significant finding is the presence of SSH authorized keys in the repository. This is a security risk, as it allows anyone with access to the repository to know which public keys are authorized to access the servers.
|
||||
|
||||
### High-Risk Findings
|
||||
|
||||
* **SSH Authorized Keys in Repository:** The `ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/SSH/AuthorizedKeys` directory contains SSH authorized keys for the `localuser` and `root` users. This is a security risk, as it allows anyone with access to the repository to know which public keys are authorized to access the servers.
|
||||
|
||||
### Medium-Risk Findings
|
||||
|
||||
* **Hardcoded Hostnames:** The scripts contain several hardcoded hostnames for services like Postfix, NTP, syslog, and Wazuh. This is not a direct security risk, but it does represent a configuration management issue. If any of these hostnames change, they will need to be updated in multiple places.
|
||||
|
||||
### Low-Risk Findings
|
||||
|
||||
* **Potential for Password on Command Line:** The `ProjectCode/Agents/librenms/mysql.sh` script has a `--pass` argument for a MySQL password. This is a potential security risk if the password is provided on the command line, as it could be logged in the shell history.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
* **Remove SSH Authorized Keys from Repository:** The SSH authorized keys should be removed from the repository and managed using a secrets management tool like HashiCorp Vault or AWS Secrets Manager.
|
||||
* **Use Variables for Hostnames:** The hardcoded hostnames should be replaced with variables that are defined in a central configuration file. This will make it easier to update the hostnames if they change.
|
||||
* **Avoid Passwords on Command Line:** The `ProjectCode/Agents/librenms/mysql.sh` script should be modified to avoid passing the MySQL password on the command line. For example, the script could prompt the user for the password or read it from a configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
Overall, the KNELServerBuild project is a good starting point for an IAC repository. By addressing the security risks identified in this audit, the project can be made more secure and reliable.

# TSYS FetchApply Code Review Findings
|
||||
|
||||
**Review Date:** July 14, 2025
|
||||
**Reviewer:** Claude (Anthropic)
|
||||
**Repository:** TSYS Group Infrastructure Provisioning Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
## Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
The repository shows good architectural structure with centralized framework components, but has several performance, security, and maintainability issues that require attention. The codebase is functional but needs optimization for production reliability.
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical Issues (High Priority)
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Package Installation Performance ⚠️
|
||||
**Location:** `ProjectCode/SetupNewSystem.sh:27` and `Lines 117-183`
|
||||
**Issue:** Multiple separate package installation commands causing performance bottlenecks
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Current inefficient pattern
|
||||
apt-get -y install git sudo dmidecode curl
|
||||
# ... later in script ...
|
||||
DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" apt-get -qq --yes install virt-what auditd ...
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Impact:** Significantly slower deployment, multiple package cache updates
|
||||
**Fix:** Combine all package installations into single command
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Network Operations Lack Error Handling 🔴
|
||||
**Location:** `ProjectCode/SetupNewSystem.sh:61-63`, multiple modules
|
||||
**Issue:** curl commands without timeout or error handling
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Vulnerable pattern
|
||||
curl --silent ${DL_ROOT}/path/file >/etc/config
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Impact:** Deployment failures in poor network conditions
|
||||
**Fix:** Add timeout, error handling, and retry logic
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Unquoted Variable Expansions 🔴
|
||||
**Location:** Multiple files, including `ProjectCode/SetupNewSystem.sh:244`
|
||||
**Issue:** Variables used without proper quoting creating security risks
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Risky pattern
|
||||
chsh -s $(which zsh) root
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Impact:** Potential command injection, script failures
|
||||
**Fix:** Quote all variable expansions consistently
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Concerns
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. No Download Integrity Verification 🔴
|
||||
**Issue:** All remote downloads lack checksum verification
|
||||
**Impact:** Supply chain attack vulnerability
|
||||
**Recommendation:** Implement SHA256 checksum validation
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Excessive Root Privilege Usage ⚠️
|
||||
**Issue:** All operations run as root without privilege separation
|
||||
**Impact:** Unnecessary security exposure
|
||||
**Recommendation:** Delegate non-privileged operations when possible
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Optimization Opportunities
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Individual File Downloads 🟡
|
||||
**Location:** `ProjectCode/Modules/Security/secharden-scap-stig.sh:66-77`
|
||||
**Issue:** 12+ individual curl commands for config files
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl --silent ${DL_ROOT}/path1 > /etc/file1
|
||||
curl --silent ${DL_ROOT}/path2 > /etc/file2
|
||||
# ... repeated 12+ times
|
||||
```
|
||||
**Impact:** Network overhead, slower deployment
|
||||
**Fix:** Batch download operations
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Missing Connection Pooling ⚠️
|
||||
**Issue:** No connection reuse for multiple downloads from same host
|
||||
**Impact:** Unnecessary connection overhead
|
||||
**Fix:** Use curl with connection reuse or wget with keep-alive
|
||||
|
||||
## Code Quality Issues
|
||||
|
||||
### 8. Inconsistent Framework Usage 🟡
|
||||
**Issue:** Not all modules use established error handling framework
|
||||
**Impact:** Inconsistent error reporting, debugging difficulties
|
||||
**Fix:** Standardize framework usage across all modules
|
||||
|
||||
### 9. Incomplete Function Implementations 🟡

||||
**Location:** `Framework-Includes/LookupKv.sh`
|
||||
**Issue:** Stubbed functions with no implementation
|
||||
**Impact:** Technical debt, confusion
|
||||
**Fix:** Implement or remove unused functions
|
||||
|
||||
### 10. Missing Input Validation 🟡

# Claude Code Review - TSYS FetchApply Infrastructure
|
||||
|
||||
**Review Date:** July 14, 2025 (Updated)
|
||||
**Reviewed by:** Claude (Anthropic)
|
||||
**Repository:** TSYS Group Infrastructure Provisioning Scripts
|
||||
**Previous Review:** July 12, 2025
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This repository contains infrastructure-as-code for provisioning Linux servers in the TSYS Group environment. The codebase includes 32 shell scripts (~2,800 lines) organized into a modular framework for system hardening, security configuration, and operational tooling deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
## Strengths ✅
|
||||
|

||||
- **SSH Security:** Comprehensive SSH hardening with key-only authentication, disabled password login, and secure cipher configurations
|
||||
- **Security Agents:** Automated deployment of Wazuh SIEM agents, audit tools, and SCAP-STIG compliance checking
|
||||
- **File Permissions:** Proper restrictive permissions (400 for SSH keys, 644 for configs)
|
||||
- **Network Security:** Firewall configuration, network discovery tools (LLDP), and monitoring agents
|
||||
|
||||
### Code Quality
|
||||
- **Error Handling:** Robust bash strict mode implementation (`set -euo pipefail`) with custom error trapping and line number reporting
|
||||
- **Modular Design:** Well-organized structure separating framework components, configuration files, and functional modules
|
||||
- **Environment Awareness:** Intelligent detection of physical vs virtual hosts, distribution-specific logic, and hardware-specific optimizations
|
||||
- **Logging:** Centralized logging with timestamp-based log files and colored output for debugging
|

|
||||
### Operational Excellence
|
||||
- **Package Management:** Automated repository setup for security tools (Lynis, Webmin, Tailscale, Wazuh)
|
||||
- **System Tuning:** Performance optimizations for physical hosts, virtualization-aware configurations
|
||||
- **Monitoring Integration:** LibreNMS agents, SNMP configuration, and system metrics collection
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Concerns ⚠️
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Issues
|
||||
1. **~~Insecure Deployment Method~~** ✅ **RESOLVED:** Now uses `git clone` + local script execution instead of `curl | bash`
|
||||
2. **No Integrity Verification:** Downloaded scripts lack checksum validation or cryptographic signatures
|
||||
3. **~~HTTP Downloads~~** ✅ **RESOLVED:** All HTTP URLs converted to HTTPS (Dell OMSA, Proxmox, Apache sources)
|
||||
|
||||
### Moderate Risks
|
||||
4. **Exposed SSH Keys:** Public SSH keys committed directly to repository without rotation mechanism
|
||||
5. **Hard-coded Credentials:** Server hostnames and domain names embedded in scripts
|
||||
6. **Missing Secrets Management:** No current implementation of Bitwarden/Vault integration (noted in TODO comments)
|
||||
|
||||
## Improvement Recommendations 🔧
|
||||
|
||||
### High Priority (Security Critical)
|
||||
1. **~~Secure Deployment Pipeline~~** ✅ **RESOLVED:** Now uses git clone-based deployment
|
||||
2. **~~HTTPS Enforcement~~** ✅ **RESOLVED:** All HTTP downloads converted to HTTPS
|
||||
3. **Script Integrity:** Implement SHA256 checksum verification for all downloaded components
|
||||
4. **Secrets Management:** Deploy proper secrets handling for SSH keys and sensitive configurations
|
||||
|
||||
### Medium Priority (Operational)
|
||||
5. **Testing Framework:** Add integration tests for provisioning workflows
|
||||
6. **Documentation Enhancement:** Expand security considerations and deployment procedures
|
||||
7. **Configuration Validation:** Add pre-deployment validation of system requirements
|
||||
8. **Rollback Capability:** Implement configuration backup and rollback mechanisms
|
||||
|
||||
### Low Priority (Quality of Life)
|
||||
9. **Error Recovery:** Enhanced error recovery and partial deployment resumption
|
||||
10. **Monitoring Integration:** Centralized logging and deployment status reporting
|
||||
11. **User Interface:** Consider web-based deployment dashboard for non-technical users
|
||||
|
||||
## Risk Assessment 📊
|
||||
|
||||
**Overall Risk Level:** Low-Medium ⬇️ (Reduced from Medium-Low)
|
||||
|
||||
The repository contains well-architected defensive security tools with strong error handling and modular design. **Major security improvement:** The insecure `curl | bash` deployment method has been replaced with git-based deployment. Remaining concerns are primarily around hardening the provisioning scripts themselves rather than the deployment method.
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation:** Continue addressing remaining security issues (HTTPS enforcement, secrets management) but the critical deployment risk has been mitigated. The codebase is much safer for production use.
|
||||
|
||||
## Update Summary (July 14, 2025)
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Resolved Issues:**
|
||||
- Insecure deployment method replaced with git clone approach
|
||||
- README.md updated with project management and community links
|
||||
- Deployment security risk significantly reduced
|
||||
- All HTTP URLs converted to HTTPS (Dell OMSA, Proxmox, Apache sources)
|

||||
**🔄 Remaining Priorities:**
|
||||
1. ~~HTTPS enforcement for internal downloads~~ ✅ **RESOLVED:** All HTTP URLs converted to HTTPS
|
||||
2. Secrets management implementation
|
||||
3. Script integrity verification
|
||||
4. SSH key rotation from repository
|
||||

# TSYS FetchApply Development Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This document contains development standards and best practices for the TSYS FetchApply infrastructure provisioning system.
|
||||
|
||||
## Package Management Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### Combine apt-get Install Commands
|
||||
|
||||
**Rule:** Always combine multiple package installations into a single `apt-get install` command for performance.
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale:** Single command execution is significantly faster than multiple separate commands due to:
|
||||
- Reduced package cache processing
|
||||
- Single dependency resolution
|
||||
- Fewer network connections
|
||||
- Optimized package download ordering
|
||||
|
||||
#### ✅ Correct Implementation
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install all packages in one command
|
||||
apt-get install -y package1 package2 package3 package4
|
||||
|
||||
# Real example from 2FA script
|
||||
apt-get install -y libpam-google-authenticator qrencode
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### ❌ Incorrect Implementation
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Don't use separate commands for each package
|
||||
apt-get install -y package1
|
||||
apt-get install -y package2
|
||||
apt-get install -y package3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Complex Package Installation Pattern
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
function install_security_packages() {
|
||||
print_info "Installing security packages..."
|
||||
|
||||
# Update package cache once
|
||||
apt-get update
|
||||
|
||||
# Install all packages in single command
|
||||
apt-get install -y \
|
||||
auditd \
|
||||
fail2ban \
|
||||
libpam-google-authenticator \
|
||||
lynis \
|
||||
rkhunter \
|
||||
aide \
|
||||
chkrootkit \
|
||||
clamav \
|
||||
clamav-daemon
|
||||
|
||||
print_success "Security packages installed successfully"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Script Development Standards
|
||||
|
||||
### Error Handling
|
||||
- Always use `set -euo pipefail` at script start
|
||||
- Implement proper error trapping
|
||||
- Use framework error handling functions
|
||||
- Return appropriate exit codes
|
||||
|
||||
### Function Structure
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
function function_name() {
|
||||
print_info "Description of what function does..."
|
||||
|
||||
# Local variables
|
||||
local var1="value"
|
||||
local var2="value"
|
||||
|
||||
# Function logic
|
||||
if [[ condition ]]; then
|
||||
print_success "Success message"
|
||||
return 0
|
||||
else
|
||||
print_error "Error message"
|
||||
return 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Framework Integration
|
||||
- Source framework includes at script start
|
||||
- Use framework logging and pretty print functions
|
||||
- Follow existing patterns for consistency
|
||||
- Include proper PROJECT_ROOT path resolution
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Standard framework sourcing pattern
|
||||
PROJECT_ROOT="$(dirname "$(realpath "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")")/../.."
|
||||
source "$PROJECT_ROOT/Framework-Includes/PrettyPrint.sh"
|
||||
source "$PROJECT_ROOT/Framework-Includes/Logging.sh"
|
||||
source "$PROJECT_ROOT/Framework-Includes/ErrorHandling.sh"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Code Quality Standards
|
||||
|
||||
### ShellCheck Compliance
|
||||
- All scripts must pass shellcheck validation
|
||||
- Address shellcheck warnings appropriately
|
||||
- Use proper quoting for variables
|
||||
- Handle edge cases and error conditions
|
||||
|
||||
### Variable Naming
|
||||
- Use UPPERCASE for global constants
|
||||
- Use lowercase for local variables
|
||||
- Use descriptive names
|
||||
- Quote all variable expansions
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Global constants
|
||||
declare -g BACKUP_DIR="/root/backup"
|
||||
declare -g CONFIG_FILE="/etc/ssh/sshd_config"
|
||||
|
||||
# Local variables
|
||||
local user_name="localuser"
|
||||
local temp_file="/tmp/config.tmp"
|
||||
|
||||
# Proper quoting
|
||||
if [[ -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]]; then
|
||||
cp "$CONFIG_FILE" "$BACKUP_DIR/"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Function Documentation
|
||||
- Include purpose description
|
||||
- Document parameters if any
|
||||
- Document return values
|
||||
- Include usage examples for complex functions
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Configure SSH hardening settings
|
||||
# Parameters: none
|
||||
# Returns: 0 on success, 1 on failure
|
||||
# Usage: configure_ssh_hardening
|
||||
function configure_ssh_hardening() {
|
||||
print_info "Configuring SSH hardening..."
|
||||
# Implementation
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
### Test Coverage
|
||||
- Every new module must include corresponding tests
|
||||
- Test both success and failure scenarios
|
||||
- Validate configurations after changes
|
||||
- Include integration tests for complex workflows
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
2. **Integration Tests:** Module interaction testing
|
||||
3. **Security Tests:** Security configuration validation
|
||||
4. **Validation Tests:** System requirement checking
|
||||

### Test Implementation Pattern
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
function test_function_name() {
|
||||
echo "🔍 Testing specific functionality..."
|
||||
|
||||
local failed=0
|
||||
|
||||
# Test implementation
|
||||
if [[ condition ]]; then
|
||||
echo "✅ Test passed"
|
||||
else
|
||||
echo "❌ Test failed"
|
||||
((failed++))
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
return $failed
|
||||
}
|
||||
```

## 1. Workload Profile
|
||||
|
||||
This cluster runs **R&D and RackRental (containerlab) workloads** via
|
||||
Kubernetes. Production (Gitea, RustFS, Redmine, websites) lives on a VPS in
|
||||
Reston, VA running Cloudron.
|
||||
|
||||
**Workload types expected:**
|
||||
|
||||
| Type | Description | Storage need | RAM need | Examples |
|
||||
|------|------------|-------------|----------|---------|
|
||||
| **ETL (weather/GIS)** | Batch processing of large geospatial datasets. Sequential reads, transform, sequential writes. | High capacity (100s of GB), moderate IOPS | Medium (8-32 GB per job) | GRIB/NetCDF processing, raster reprojection |
|
||||
| **HPC (hardware startup)** | Compute-intensive simulations, firmware build pipelines, hardware-in-the-loop testing. | Low capacity, moderate IOPS | High (32-128 GB per job) | RTL simulation, PCB thermal analysis |
|
||||
| **RackRental (containerlab)** | Rapid deployment/teardown of network lab topologies. Many containers, short-lived. | Low capacity, high IOPS (container image pulls) | Low-Medium (4-16 GB) | Network topology testing, protocol validation |
|
||||
|
||||
**Key storage insight:** ETL workloads need bulk capacity (NFS-HDD is fine --
|
||||
sequential I/O). HPC and containerlab need low-latency random I/O (local
|
||||
SSD/NVMe is essential). The tiered StorageClass design (section 6) serves both.
|
||||

|

|
||||
## 2. Current State
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.1 pfv-k8s nodes and their storage
|
||||
|
||||
| Node | Type | Host | Storage | Disk type | Status |
|
||||
|------|------|------|---------|-----------|--------|
|
||||
| cnode1 (107) | control | tsys1 | D5 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
| cnode2 (603) | control | tsys6 | D2 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
| cnode3 (106) | control | tsys1 | D2 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
| cnode4 (601) | control | tsys6 | D2 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
| cnode5 (602) | control | tsys6 | D5 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys3 (313) | worker | tsys3 | D5 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys5 (509) | worker | tsys5 | D2 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys6 (100) | worker | tsys6 | D5 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | **STOPPED** |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys7 (701) | worker | tsys7 | D5 (tsys4) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys9 (905) | worker | tsys9 | S3 (tsys5) | NFS-HDD | running |
|
||||
|
||||
### 2.2 Problems
|
||||
|
||||
1. **100% of cnodes on tsys4 NFS.** D2 disk failure loses 3 of 5 cnodes =
|
||||
etcd quorum lost.
|
||||
2. **90% of all k8s nodes on tsys4 NFS.** tsys4 failure kills the cluster.
|
||||
3. **Zero nodes use SSD or NVMe.** All on NFS-over-HDD.
|
||||
4. **Zero nodes use local-lvm.** tsys3/6/7/9 all have empty local storage
|
||||
(349 GB / 1.7 TB / 1.7 TB / 136 GB SSD respectively).
|
||||
5. **wnode-tsys6 is stopped.** Reduces cluster capacity.
|
||||
6. **3 cnodes on tsys6** -- should be on lighter hosts to free tsys6 for workers.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Target Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.1 Design principles
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Cnodes on lightweight hosts** (tsys1, tsys9, tsys3) -- frees tsys6/7 for
|
||||
heavy workers.
|
||||
2. **Cnode storage split across tsys4 and tsys5** -- etcd survives either
|
||||
storage server failing.
|
||||
3. **Wnode boot disks on local storage** -- eliminates NFS latency for
|
||||
container runtime and kubelet.
|
||||
4. **Wnode data disks on NFS-HDD** -- bulk capacity for ETL/weather/GIS.
|
||||
5. **tsys5 NVMe dedicated to wnode-tsys5** -- fastest tier for HPC jobs.
|
||||
6. **One wnode per hypervisor host** -- maximize total cluster capacity.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.2 Target node-host-storage matrix
|
||||
|
||||
| Node | Type | Host | Boot disk | Data disk | Disk type |
|
||||
|------|------|------|-----------|-----------|-----------|
|
||||
| cnode1 | control | tsys1 | D5 (tsys4) | -- | NFS-HDD |
|
||||
| cnode2 | control | tsys9 | D2 (tsys4) | -- | NFS-HDD |
|
||||
| cnode3 | control | tsys1 | S2 (tsys5) | -- | NFS-HDD |
|
||||
| cnode4 | control | tsys9 | D5 (tsys4) | -- | NFS-HDD |
|
||||
| cnode5 | control | tsys3 | S3 (tsys5) | -- | NFS-HDD |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys1 | worker | tsys1 | D5 (tsys4) | -- | NFS-HDD (small) |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys2 | worker | tsys2 | **NVMe (960 PRO 512GB)** | **SATA SSD (850 EVO 1TB)** | **NVMe + SSD -- no NFS needed** |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys3 | worker | tsys3 | **local-lvm (NVMe PM961)** | S3 (NFS) | **LOCAL-NVMe** |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys5 | worker | tsys5 | **NVMe (local, Friday)** | local-nonprod (HDD) | **NVMe** |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys6 | worker | tsys6 | D2 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | NFS-HDD (local-lvm is USB 2.0 -- do not use) |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys7 | worker | tsys7 | D5 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | NFS-HDD (local-lvm is USB 2.0 -- do not use) |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys9 | worker | tsys9 | **local-lvm (SSD)** | S2 (NFS) | **LOCAL-SSD** |
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.3 Storage server distribution after changes
|
||||
|
||||
| Storage server | cnodes | wnodes (boot) | wnodes (data) |
|
||||
|---------------|--------|---------------|---------------|
|
||||
| tsys4 (D2) | cnode2 | wnode-tsys6 | wnode-tsys7 |
|
||||
| tsys4 (D5) | cnode1, cnode4 | wnode-tsys1 | -- |
|
||||
| tsys5 (S2) | cnode3 | wnode-tsys9 | -- |
|
||||
| tsys5 (S3) | cnode5 | -- | wnode-tsys3 |
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** wnode-tsys2 needs no NFS (1.5 TB local SSD). wnode-tsys6/7 stay on
|
||||
NFS by design -- their local-lvm is USB 2.0 portable HDD (~30 MB/s), slower
|
||||
than NFS-HDD, and the user has chosen not to install internal drives.
|
||||
|
||||
**No single disk or server is a quorum-losing failure point.**
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Control Plane (Cnodes)
|
||||
|
||||
### 4.1 Cnode sizing
|
||||
|
||||
Each cnode: 4 cores, 4 GB RAM, 32 GB disk. This is sufficient for etcd +
|
||||
kubernetes control plane components (API server, scheduler, controller-manager).
|
||||
|
||||
### 4.2 Cnode host placement rationale
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | cnodes | RAM for cnodes | Total host RAM | Remaining for other VMs |
|
||||
|------|--------|---------------|---------------|------------------------|
|
||||
| tsys1 | 2 (cnode1, cnode3) | 8 GB | 32 GB | ~24 GB (but 11 infra VMs consume most) |
|
||||
| tsys9 | 2 (cnode2, cnode4) | 8 GB | 24 GB | ~16 GB (4 infra VMs + 1 wnode) |
|
||||
| tsys3 | 1 (cnode5) | 4 GB | 32 GB | ~28 GB (1 wnode at 20 GB = 8 GB headroom) |
|
||||
|
||||
**tsys6 and tsys7 have ZERO cnodes** -- fully dedicated to heavy worker nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4.3 Cnode storage placement rationale
|
||||
|
||||
The 5 cnodes are split 3-on-tsys4 / 2-on-tsys5:
|
||||
|
||||
| Disk | cnodes | Rationale |
|
||||
|------|--------|-----------|
|
||||
| D5 (tsys4 HDD) | cnode1, cnode4 | Spread load across 2 disks on tsys4 |
|
||||
| D2 (tsys4 HDD) | cnode2 | Only 1 cnode on D2 (was 3 -- reduces blast radius) |
|
||||
| S2 (tsys5 HDD) | cnode3 | tsys5 storage for quorum diversity |
|
||||
| S3 (tsys5 HDD) | cnode5 | tsys5 storage, different disk than S2 |
|
||||
|
||||
**If D2 fails:** cnode2 dies. 4 of 5 survive. Quorum OK.
|
||||
**If D5 fails:** cnode1 + cnode4 die. 3 of 5 survive. Quorum OK.
|
||||
**If tsys4 fails:** cnode1, cnode2, cnode4 die. cnode3 + cnode5 survive on
|
||||
tsys5. **Only 2 of 5 -- QUORUM LOST.**
|
||||
|
||||
Wait -- that is a problem. If tsys4 goes completely offline, we lose 3
|
||||
cnodes and only have 2 on tsys5. That loses quorum (need 3).
|
||||
|
||||
**Revision needed:** Move 1 more cnode to tsys5 storage. Target: 2 on tsys4,
|
||||
3 on tsys5. But that means tsys5 failure (3 cnodes die) leaves only 2 on
|
||||
tsys4. Same problem inverted.
|
||||
|
||||
The fundamental issue: with 5 cnodes and 2 storage servers, the best split is
|
||||
3/2. The server holding 3 cnodes is a quorum-loss risk if it fails. The server
|
||||
holding 2 cnodes is safe (3 survive).
|
||||
|
||||
**Proper solution: 3 cnodes on the "less likely to fail" server, 2 on the
|
||||
other.** After Friday's hardware work:
|
||||
- tsys4 will have a new PCIe NIC + 64 GB RAM -- more reliable
|
||||
- tsys5 will have bond0 fixed + NVMe -- more reliable
|
||||
|
||||
Either way, 3/2 split means one server failure could lose quorum. **To truly
|
||||
solve this, use a 3rd storage target.** Options:
|
||||
- Use tsys9 local SSD for 1 cnode (breaks the 2-server model, adds a 3rd
|
||||
independent failure domain)
|
||||
- Use local-lvm on the cnode's own host (etcd data is local to the VM's host,
|
||||
no NFS dependency at all)
|
||||
|
||||
**Best option: put cnode boot disks on local-lvm where available.** This
|
||||
eliminates NFS entirely for the control plane. Each cnode's etcd data lives on
|
||||
its own host's local disk -- no shared dependency.
|
||||
|
||||
| cnode | Host | **Recommended storage** | Type |
|
||||
|-------|------|------------------------|------|
|
||||
| cnode1 | tsys1 | **local-lvm** (if space) or D5 (tsys4) | LOCAL-HDD or NFS-HDD |
|
||||
| cnode2 | tsys9 | **local-lvm (SSD)** | **LOCAL-SSD** |
|
||||
| cnode3 | tsys1 | **S2 (tsys5)** | NFS-HDD |
|
||||
| cnode4 | tsys9 | **local-lvm (SSD)** | **LOCAL-SSD** |
|
||||
| cnode5 | tsys3 | **local-lvm** | LOCAL-HDD |
|
||||
|
||||
With this layout, a tsys4 failure takes down 0 cnodes. A tsys5 failure takes
|
||||
down 1 (cnode3). A host failure takes down at most 2 cnodes. Quorum always
|
||||
survives.
|
||||
|
||||
**This is the recommended approach.** Local storage for cnodes wherever
|
||||
possible. NFS only as fallback.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4.4 etcd performance on local vs NFS
|
||||
|
||||
| Storage | Typical fsync latency | etcd commit latency | Impact |
|
||||
|---------|----------------------|--------------------|--------|
|
||||
| NFS-HDD (via USB dongle on tsys4) | 5-15 ms | 10-30 ms | Slow API responses, sluggish pod scheduling |
|
||||
| NFS-HDD (via PCIe NIC, post-Friday) | 2-8 ms | 5-15 ms | Better but still network-bound |
|
||||
| Local HDD (tsys1/3/6/7 local-lvm) | 1-5 ms | 3-10 ms | No network hop, moderate improvement |
|
||||
| Local SSD (tsys9 PNY CS900) | 0.1-0.5 ms | 0.5-2 ms | **10-30x faster than NFS-HDD** |
|
||||
| NVMe (tsys5, Friday) | 0.02-0.1 ms | 0.1-0.5 ms | **100x faster than NFS-HDD** |
|
||||
|
||||
etcd is the heartbeat of the kubernetes control plane. Every API call, every
|
||||
pod schedule, every controller reconciliation involves an etcd write. Cutting
|
||||
etcd commit latency from 15 ms to 1 ms makes the entire cluster feel 15x more
|
||||
responsive. **This is the single highest-impact change for k8s performance.**
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Worker Nodes (Wnodes)
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.1 One wnode per hypervisor host
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | wnode | Boot disk | Data disk | Total RAM | wnode RAM | Role |
|
||||
|------|-------|-----------|-----------|-----------|-----------|------|
|
||||
| tsys1 | wnode-tsys1 | D5 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | 32 GB | 4-8 GB | Small worker, infra co-tenant |
|
||||
| tsys2 | wnode-tsys2 | **NVMe (960 PRO 512GB)** | **SATA SSD (850 EVO 1TB)** | 32 GB | 16-24 GB | **Best storage of any worker -- 1.5TB local SSD, no NFS needed** |
|
||||
| tsys3 | wnode-tsys3 | **local-lvm (349 GB)** | S3 (NFS) | 32 GB | 20 GB | General worker |
|
||||
| tsys5 | wnode-tsys5 | **NVMe (local)** | local-nonprod (HDD) | 96 GB | 32-64 GB | **HPC/ETL powerhouse** |
|
||||
| tsys6 | wnode-tsys6 | D2 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | 128 GB | 64-96 GB | **Heavy worker, max RAM.** local-lvm is USB 2.0 -- stays on NFS |
|
||||
| tsys7 | wnode-tsys7 | D5 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | 192 GB | 96-128 GB | **Heavy worker, max RAM.** local-lvm is USB 2.0 -- stays on NFS |
|
||||
| tsys9 | wnode-tsys9 | **local-lvm SSD (136 GB)** | S2 (NFS) | 24 GB | 4-8 GB | Small worker, SSD boot |
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.2 Why boot disks on local-lvm
|
||||
|
||||
Current: all wnodes boot from NFS. Every container image pull, every kubelet
|
||||
log write, every ephemeral volume traverses the NFS network path.
|
||||
|
||||
With local-lvm boot disks:
|
||||
- **Container image pulls** write to local disk (100-150 MB/s HDD, no network
|
||||
hop) instead of NFS-HDD (80-120 MB/s with network latency)
|
||||
- **kubelet logs** stay local (no NFS writes for log rotation)
|
||||
- **ephemeral storage** (emptyDir volumes) uses local disk by default
|
||||
- **NFS server failure does not kill the wnode** -- the VM stays running, only
|
||||
the data disk (if mounted) goes away
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.3 Wnode sizing guidance
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | Recommended wnode config | Rationale |
|
||||
|------|------------------------|-----------|
|
||||
| tsys7 (192 GB) | 8-12 cores, 96-128 GB RAM, NFS boot | Largest host -- run the heaviest ETL/HPC jobs here. local-lvm is USB 2.0 |
|
||||
| tsys6 (128 GB) | 8 cores, 64-96 GB RAM, NFS boot | Second-largest -- parallel heavy jobs. local-lvm is USB 2.0 |
|
||||
| tsys5 (96 GB + NVMe) | 4 cores, 32-64 GB RAM, NVMe boot + HDD data | NVMe makes this fastest for I/O-bound HPC |
|
||||
| tsys3 (32 GB) | 4 cores, 20 GB RAM, local-lvm boot | General-purpose worker |
|
||||
| tsys2 (32 GB, NVMe+SSD, incoming) | 4 cores, 16-24 GB RAM, **NVMe boot + SSD data** | **Fastest storage worker** -- HPC with I/O bounds |
|
||||
| tsys1 (32 GB) | 2 cores, 4-8 GB RAM | Small worker, don't starve infra VMs |
|
||||
| tsys9 (24 GB) | 2-4 cores, 4-8 GB RAM | Small worker, SSD boot is the advantage |
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.4 Tainting and labeling strategy
|
||||
|
||||
Label wnodes by capability so the k8s scheduler can target them:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Heavy RAM hosts (ETL/HPC)
|
||||
wnode-tsys6: workload=heavy, ram=128g
|
||||
wnode-tsys7: workload=heavy, ram=192g
|
||||
|
||||
# NVMe host (I/O-intensive HPC)
|
||||
wnode-tsys5: workload=hpc, storage=nvme
|
||||
|
||||
# SSD boot host (low-latency)
|
||||
wnode-tsys9: workload=light, storage=ssd
|
||||
|
||||
# General workers
|
||||
wnode-tsys3: workload=general
|
||||
wnode-tsys2: workload=storage-fast, storage=nvme
|
||||
wnode-tsys1: workload=light
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then use nodeSelector or nodeAffinity in job specs:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Weather/GIS ETL job -- needs lots of RAM
|
||||
spec:
|
||||
nodeSelector:
|
||||
workload: heavy
|
||||
|
||||
# Firmware build -- needs fast storage
|
||||
spec:
|
||||
nodeSelector:
|
||||
storage: nvme
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Storage Class Design
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.1 Proposed StorageClasses
|
||||
|
||||
| StorageClass | Provisioner | Where | Speed | Use case |
|
||||
|-------------|------------|-------|-------|----------|
|
||||
| `local-fast` | local-path (k8s) | wnode local-lvm / NVMe | 100-3500 MB/s | Container runtime, scratch, databases |
|
||||
| `nfs-hdd` | nfs-subdir-external-provisioner | tsys4 D2/D5, tsys5 S1-S4 | 80-120 MB/s | Bulk data, weather/GIS datasets |
|
||||
| `nfs-ssd` | nfs-subdir-external-provisioner | tsys4 D3, tsys5 T5-SSD | 200-400 MB/s | Latency-sensitive persistent data |
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.2 How this maps to wnode disk topology
|
||||
|
||||
Each wnode has:
|
||||
- **Disk 1 (boot/OS):** local-lvm or NVMe. Contains the OS, kubelet, container
|
||||
runtime. k8s `local-fast` StorageClass provisioner points here.
|
||||
- **Disk 2 (bulk data, optional):** NFS mount. Mounted inside the VM as a
|
||||
second block device or filesystem. k8s `nfs-hdd` provisioner points here.
|
||||
|
||||
Inside k8s, pods request storage via PVC:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# ETL job: needs bulk storage for weather data
|
||||
apiVersion: v1
|
||||
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
|
||||
spec:
|
||||
storageClassName: nfs-hdd
|
||||
accessModes: [ReadWriteMany] # NFS allows RWX
|
||||
resources:
|
||||
requests:
|
||||
storage: 500Gi
|
||||
|
||||
# HPC job: needs fast scratch
|
||||
spec:
|
||||
storageClassName: local-fast
|
||||
accessModes: [ReadWriteOnce]
|
||||
resources:
|
||||
requests:
|
||||
storage: 50Gi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.3 NFS-SSD tier (D3 and T5-SSD -- both on tsys5 after Friday)
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage philosophy (user directive): NVMe/SSD is EXCLUSIVELY for k8s worker
|
||||
scratch space, with the exception of ultix-streaming which stays on T5-SSD.
|
||||
Spinning rust hosts all other infrastructure VMs** (UCS, netinfra, LibreNMS,
|
||||
SIEM, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
The SSD NFS exports:
|
||||
- **D3 (tsys5 SAS, 445 GB free):** k8s scratch exclusively (etcd, container
|
||||
cache, ephemeral volumes). Currently 99% empty.
|
||||
- **T5-SSD (tsys5 SAS, 140 GB free after ultix-streaming):** ultix-streaming
|
||||
occupies 83 GB. Remaining 140 GB available for k8s use.
|
||||
|
||||
**tsys5 is the fast-tier hub:** NVMe (local) + D3 SSD + T5-SSD all on one host.
|
||||
This simplifies the StorageClass design -- latency-sensitive k8s PVCs target
|
||||
tsys5 SSD exports, bulk PVCs target either server.
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.4 NFS data distribution across storage servers
|
||||
|
||||
To avoid re-creating the "everything on tsys4" problem, distribute NFS data
|
||||
disks across both servers:
|
||||
|
||||
| wnode | Boot (local) | Bulk data (NFS) | NFS server |
|
||||
|-------|-------------|-----------------|------------|
|
||||
| wnode-tsys3 | local-lvm | S3 | tsys5 |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys5 | NVMe | local-nonprod | local (no NFS) |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys6 | D2 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | tsys4 |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys7 | D5 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | tsys4 |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys9 | local-lvm (SSD) | S2 | tsys5 |
|
||||
|
||||
This balances: 2 wnodes using tsys4 for bulk data, 2 using tsys5.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 7. ETL/HPC Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.1 Weather/GIS ETL pipeline
|
||||
|
||||
Typical flow: download GRIB/NetCDF files -> process (reproject, aggregate) ->
|
||||
store results.
|
||||
|
||||
| Stage | Storage class | Why |
|
||||
|-------|-------------|-----|
|
||||
| Download raw data | `nfs-hdd` | Large sequential writes. NFS-HDD handles this well. |
|
||||
| Processing scratch | `local-fast` | Random access during transform. Local disk avoids NFS latency. |
|
||||
| Store results | `nfs-hdd` | Large sequential writes. Persistent. |
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation:** Deploy a `local-fast` PV mount as `/scratch` on every
|
||||
wnode. ETL jobs use `/scratch` for intermediate processing and write final
|
||||
output to the NFS-mounted `/data`.
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.2 HPC workloads (hardware startup)
|
||||
|
||||
Use cases: RTL simulation, PCB thermal analysis, firmware build pipelines.
|
||||
|
||||
| Workload | Best wnode | Why |
|
||||
|----------|-----------|-----|
|
||||
| RTL simulation (CPU-bound, high RAM) | tsys7 (192 GB) | Most RAM, most cores (24t) |
|
||||
| Firmware builds (I/O-bound, moderate RAM) | tsys5 (NVMe) | Fastest storage for compile I/O |
|
||||
| Hardware-in-the-loop (latency-sensitive) | tsys9 (local SSD) | Lowest latency storage |
|
||||
| Parallel batch jobs | tsys6 + tsys7 | Distribute across both heavy hosts |
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.3 RackRental/containerlab
|
||||
|
||||
Rapid container deployment. Key need: fast container image pulls.
|
||||
|
||||
This is where **local-lvm boot disks** shine. Currently, every container image
|
||||
pull writes through NFS to a spinning disk -- slow. With local-lvm, images
|
||||
cache on local disk (even HDD is 2-3x faster than NFS-HDD for random I/O).
|
||||
On tsys9 (SSD) and tsys5 (NVMe), image pulls are near-instant.
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.4 Data locality for ETL
|
||||
|
||||
For weather/GIS data that is read repeatedly (e.g., climate reanalysis), cache
|
||||
it on local-lvm of the heavy hosts:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
tsys3 local-lvm (NVMe 349 GB): /data/cache/weather/ -- fastest cache tier
|
||||
tsys5 NVMe (local): /data/cache/gis/ -- fastest cache tier
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** tsys6/7 local-lvm is USB 2.0 portable HDD (~30 MB/s) -- cannot
|
||||
be used for caching. Pre-populate weather/GIS data on D2/D5 (NFS) instead.
|
||||
|
||||
This avoids re-reading the same data from the same NFS export on every job
|
||||
if the data is already cached in the page cache.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. Migration Plan
|
||||
|
||||
**Key enabler:** The hosts are standalone Proxmox installs, but **Proxmox
|
||||
Datacenter Manager (PDM)** manages them collectively and supports VM migration
|
||||
between nodes. Storage migration can be done via the PDM/Proxmox UI rather
|
||||
than manual disk copies -- the destination node just needs access to the target
|
||||
storage (which all nodes have for NFS exports, and local storage can be
|
||||
migrated through the UI's "Storage Migrate" function).
|
||||
|
||||
### 8.1 Phase 1: Friday (after hardware work)
|
||||
|
||||
After tsys5 cable + NVMe and tsys4 NIC + RAM:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Format tsys5 NVMe** as local directory storage (e.g., `nvme-local`)
|
||||
2. **Restart wnode-tsys6** (VM 100). Keep on NFS (D5). local-lvm is USB 2.0 --
|
||||
do not use for VM storage. Recreate on D2 or D5 NFS.
|
||||
3. **Move wnode-tsys9** (VM 905) disk from S3 (NFS) to local-lvm (SSD).
|
||||
|
||||
### 8.2 Phase 2: Cnode rebalance (maintenance window)
|
||||
|
||||
These changes require creating new VMs on target hosts and migrating disks.
|
||||
Plan for a maintenance window with the k8s cluster briefly down.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create cnode2 on tsys9 (local-lvm SSD if possible, or D2 NFS).
|
||||
2. Create cnode4 on tsys9 (D5 NFS or local-lvm SSD).
|
||||
3. Create cnode5 on tsys3 (S3 NFS or local-lvm).
|
||||
4. Move cnode3 disk from D2 to S2 (tsys4 to tsys5).
|
||||
5. Join new cnodes to etcd cluster, drain old cnode2/4/5, remove.
|
||||
|
||||
### 8.3 Phase 3: Wnode local storage migration (maintenance window)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Recreate wnode-tsys3 with boot disk on local-lvm (349 GB).
|
||||
2. wnode-tsys6 stays on NFS (local-lvm is USB 2.0 HDD -- not suitable).
|
||||
3. wnode-tsys7 stays on NFS (same reason).
|
||||
4. Recreate wnode-tsys5 with boot disk on NVMe.
|
||||
5. Add data disks (NFS) as second SCSI devices where applicable.
|
||||
|
||||
### 8.4 Phase 4: tsys2 integration (when rebuilt)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install Proxmox on tsys2.
|
||||
2. Run `scripts/check.sh` to inventory.
|
||||
3. Run `scripts/apply-tunings.sh --apply`.
|
||||
4. Create wnode-tsys2 with **boot disk on NVMe (960 PRO)** and **data disk on SATA SSD (850 EVO)**. No NFS needed -- 1.5 TB local SSD is the most local storage of any worker.
|
||||
5. Join to k8s cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
### 8.5 Phase 5: Critical VM relocation
|
||||
|
||||
1. Move netinfra-02 (VM 904) from D2 to S3 (tsys5 HDD).
|
||||
2. Move ucs-02 (VM 902) from D5 to S2 (tsys5 HDD).
|
||||
3. (No change to T5-SSD -- ultix-streaming stays.)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Open questions for next session
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Are the hosts a Proxmox cluster (pvecm) or standalone?** This determines
|
||||
whether live migration is available (huge simplification) or we need manual
|
||||
disk migration. Check `pvecm status` on each host.
|
||||
2. **What k8s distribution is in use?** (k3s, kubeadm, RKE2?) This affects how
|
||||
nodes are joined/drain and how StorageClasses are configured.
|
||||
3. **Container runtime?** (containerd, cri-o?) Affects local storage layout.
|
||||
4. **Is there a container image registry mirror in the cluster?** Or do all
|
||||
pulls go to Docker Hub / external? A local registry on D3 SSD would speed
|
||||
up all pulls.
|
||||
5. **What specific ETL tools?** (GDAL, PostGIS, xarray, Dask?) This affects
|
||||
whether jobs need shared (RWX) or exclusive (RWO) storage.
|
||||
6. **HPC job scheduler?** (plain k8s Jobs, Argo Workflows, Volcano?) Affects
|
||||
how we label and taint nodes.

## 1. Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
The cluster consists of 7 active Proxmox hosts and 1 incoming (pfv-tsys2),
|
||||
running 43 VMs across two NFS storage servers (tsys4, tsys5). Host-side
|
||||
performance tunings are complete on 5 of 7 hosts. Two hosts (tsys4, tsys5)
|
||||
are blocked on physical hardware work scheduled for Friday.
|
||||
|
||||
**Progress since initial audit:** The user has been actively rebalancing k8s
|
||||
nodes via PDM. Storage distribution improved from 90%/10% (tsys4/tsys5) to
|
||||
73%/27%. One cnode now uses tsys5 storage (cnode5 on S2). More migration
|
||||
needed for etcd quorum survival.
|
||||
|
||||
The VM-layer assessment reveals:
|
||||
|
||||
| # | Finding | Severity | Status |
|
||||
|---|---------|----------|--------|
|
||||
| 1 | **4 of 5 cnodes still store disks on tsys4 NFS.** cnode5 moved to tsys5. Still need 1-2 more moves for quorum survival. | **CRITICAL** | Improving |
|
||||
| 2 | **Both -01/-02 infrastructure pairs (netinfra, UCS) on tsys4 NFS only.** | **HIGH** | TODO today |
|
||||
| 3 | **No k8s node uses SSD or NVMe yet.** tsys3 has 349 GB unused local NVMe; tsys9 has 136 GB local SSD. | **HIGH** | Deferred to k8s session |
|
||||
| 4 | **D3 SSD (tsys4, USB) is 99% empty (445 GB free).** Moving to tsys5 SAS Friday. | **MEDIUM** | Friday |

|
||||
| pfv-tsys4 | Precision T1700 | Xeon E3-1246 v3 Haswell (2013) | 4c/8t | 16 GB DDR3 | 6 disks (HDD+SSD+SMR) | **Storage (NFS+PBS)** | Blocked (NIC+RAM) |
|
||||
| pfv-tsys5 | Precision T7500 | Xeon E5620 Westmere (2010) | 4c/8t | 96 GB DDR3 | 6 disks (HDD+SSD) | **Storage (NFS+VMs)** | Blocked (cable) |

|
||||
|
||||
### 2.2 Role taxonomy (per user directive)
|
||||
|
||||
| Role | Hosts | Workload |
|
||||
|------|-------|----------|
|
||||
| **Infrastructure + k8s control** | tsys1, tsys9 | Infra VMs (netinfra, UCS, PBS, CA, HA) + pfv-k8s cnodes (control plane) + small wnodes |
|
||||
| **Kubernetes workers** | tsys2, tsys3, tsys6, tsys7 | pfv-k8s wnodes (heavy workers) -- these hosts have the RAM (32-192 GB) for ETL/HPC |
|
||||
| **Storage** | tsys4, tsys5 | NFS server + PBS backup target. tsys5 also runs sectestbed/preprod VMs |
|
||||
|
||||
**Design rationale:** cnodes (control plane) are lightweight (4 cores, 4 GB
|
||||
RAM each) and are weighted toward tsys1/tsys9 to keep the heavy RAM/CPU hosts
|
||||
(tsys6 with 128 GB, tsys7 with 192 GB) free for large worker nodes. wnodes
|
||||
run one per hypervisor host across the fleet to maximize total cluster capacity.
|
||||
|
||||
pfv-k8s runs all R&D and RackRental (containerlab) workloads via Kubernetes.
|
||||
Production (Gitea, RustFS, Redmine, websites) lives on a VPS in Reston, VA
|
||||
running Cloudron -- not in this cluster.

|
||||
## 3. Storage Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.1 NFS exports from tsys4 (primary storage server)
|
||||
|
||||
| Export | Disk model | Type | Bus | Total | Used | Free | Use% |
|
||||
|--------|-----------|------|-----|-------|------|------|------|
|
||||
| D2 | WDC WD30EFRX Red | HDD (7200rpm) | SATA | 2.7 TB | 187 GB | **2.4 TB** | 8% |
|
||||
| ~~D3~~ | ~~SK hynix SC300~~ | ~~SSD~~ | ~~USB~~ | — | — | — | **moving to tsys5 Friday** |
|
||||
| D5 | Hitachi HDS72302 | HDD (7200rpm) | SATA | 1.8 TB | 236 GB | **1.5 TB** | 14% |
|
||||
|
||||
Non-exported disks on tsys4:
|
||||
- sda (Hitachi 1.8T) at /mnt/albert -- not NFS shared, 1.7 TB free
|
||||
- sdd (WDC 1T) -- **idle, unmounted, removable** (free up for other use)
|
||||
- sdf (WDC 4.5T SMR) at /mnt/backup -- **PBS backup target**, 4.3 TB free
|
||||
|
||||
**D3 migration (Friday):** The SK hynix SC300 SSD is currently USB-attached on
|
||||
tsys4 (via a "ThinkPad SSD" USB adapter). It is moving to a tsys5 SAS port,
|
||||
eliminating the USB bottleneck. tsys4's 4 SATA ports are all occupied (sda/sdb
|
||||
/sdc/sdd), so tsys5 is the better target. See section 3.2.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.2 NFS exports from tsys5 (secondary storage -- becoming the fast-tier hub)
|
||||
|
||||
| Export | Disk model | Type | Bus | Total | Used | Free | Use% |
|
||||
|--------|-----------|------|-----|-------|------|------|------|
|
||||
| S1 | Seagate ST1000VN | HDD | SAS | 916 GB | 60 GB | 810 GB | 7% |
|
||||
| S2 | Seagate ST1000VN | HDD | SAS | 916 GB | **6.9 GB** | **863 GB** | **1%** |
|
||||
| S3 | Seagate ST1000VN | HDD | SAS | 916 GB | 7.0 GB | **863 GB** | **1%** |
|
||||
| S4 | Toshiba DT01ACA050 | HDD | SAS | 458 GB | 2 MB | **435 GB** | **0%** |
|
||||
| T5-SSD | Samsung 860 PRO | **SSD** | SAS | 234 GB | **122 GB** | **101 GB** | **55%** |
|
||||
| **D3** (Friday) | SK hynix SC300 | **SSD** | **SAS** | **469 GB** | **2 MB** | **445 GB** | **0%** |
|
||||
|
||||
**tsys5 storage controllers (plenty of free ports):**
|
||||
- LSI SAS1068E (SAS 6/iR): 8 ports, 3 used (Samsung SSD, Hitachi, Seagate),
|
||||
**5 free**
|
||||
- Intel ICH10 SATA #1 (4-port): 2 used (Seagate S3, Toshiba S4), **2 free**
|
||||
- Intel ICH10 SATA #2 (2-port): **status unknown, likely free**
|
||||
- 2x Renesas USB 3.0 xHCI controllers (real USB 3.0, unlike tsys6/7)
|
||||
|
||||
**Key finding: S2 and S3 now have k8s node disks.** S2 holds cnode5 +
|
||||
wnode-tsys1 + wnode-tsys9 (6.9 GB used). S3 has wnode-tsys9's old disk
|
||||
(unused, 7 GB). S4 still 99% empty (435 GB free).
|
||||
|
||||
T5-SSD grew to 55% used (122 GB) -- ultix-streaming is the primary consumer.
|
||||
|
||||
**Friday additions:**
|
||||
1. **D3 (SK hynix SSD)** moves from tsys4 USB to tsys5 SAS port. Eliminates
|
||||
USB 2.0 bottleneck. Becomes the second SSD-tier NFS export.
|
||||
2. **PCI NVMe drive** (local-only, not NFS-exported). Used for wnode-tsys5
|
||||
boot disk and HPC scratch. The fastest tier in the fleet.
|
||||
|
||||
After Friday, **tsys5 consolidates all fast storage**: NVMe (local) + 2 SSD
|
||||
NFS exports (D3 + T5-SSD) + 4 HDD NFS exports (S1-S4). This makes tsys5 the
|
||||
natural home for latency-sensitive workloads and the k8s StorageClass design
|
||||
center.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.3 Local storage tiers (per host, with utilization)
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | Storage ID | Disk type | Bus | Total | Used | Free | Used by VMs? |
|
||||
|------|-----------|-----------|-----|-------|------|------|-------------|
|
||||
| tsys1 | local-lvm | HDD | SATA | ~90 GB | low | ~90 GB | No (all VMs on NFS) |
|
||||
| **tsys3** | **local-lvm** | **NVMe (Samsung PM961)** | **NVMe** | **349 GB** | **0 GB** | **349 GB** | **No (all VMs on NFS)** |
|
||||
| tsys4 | local-lvm | HDD | SATA | ~94 GB | PBS VM | ~62 GB | Yes (PBS VM 400) |
|
||||
| tsys5 | local-lvm | HDD (Hitachi 1.8T) | SATA | 1.7 TB | 40 MB | **1.7 TB** | No |
|
||||
| tsys5 | local-nonprod | HDD (Seagate 1T, =S1) | SATA | 916 GB | 53 GB | **856 GB** | Yes (sectestbed suite) |
|
||||
| **tsys6** | **local-lvm** | **HDD (WD My Passport)** | **USB 2.0** | **1.7 TB** | **0 GB** | **1.7 TB** | **No -- DO NOT USE for VM storage** |
|
||||
| **tsys7** | **local-lvm** | **HDD (WD portable)** | **USB 2.0** | **1.7 TB** | **0 GB** | **1.7 TB** | **No -- DO NOT USE for VM storage** |
|
||||
| **tsys9** | **local-lvm** | **SSD (PNY CS900)** | **SATA** | **136 GB** | **0 GB** | **136 GB** | **No (all VMs on NFS)** |
|
||||
| **tsys2** | **NVMe** (Samsung 960 PRO) | **NVMe** | **NVMe** | **512 GB** | (Win10) | **512 GB** | **Incoming -- fastest boot tier after tsys5 NVMe** |
|
||||
| **tsys2** | **SATA SSD** (Samsung 850 EVO) | **SSD** | **SATA** | **1 TB** | (Win10) | **1 TB** | **Incoming -- bulk data on SSD, not rust** |
|
||||
|
||||
**CRITICAL WARNING: tsys6 and tsys7 local-lvm is USB 2.0 portable HDD.**
|
||||
|
||||
The entire Proxmox OS, swap, and local-lvm on both R610 and R620 run on a
|
||||
single **USB 2.0-attached WD My Passport portable HDD** (tsys6: "My Passport
|
||||
260D"; tsys7: "Drive 2657"). Both servers' only USB controllers are EHCI
|
||||
(USB 2.0, ~480 Mbps). There is **no USB 3.0/xHCI** on either host.
|
||||
|
||||
**USB 2.0 practical throughput is ~30-35 MB/s.** This is 3-4x SLOWER than
|
||||
NFS-over-HDD (~80-120 MB/s). Moving wnode boot disks to local-lvm on these
|
||||
hosts would **decrease** performance. local-lvm on tsys6/7 must NOT be used
|
||||
for VM storage.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, both servers have completely empty internal drive bays:
|
||||
- **tsys6**: SAS controller present but **DISABLED** in BIOS. No internal
|
||||
drives.
|
||||
- **tsys7**: 6-port SATA AHCI controller present, **5 ports EMPTY** (only
|
||||
DVD-ROM on port 5). No internal drives.
|
||||
|
||||
This is a reliability risk beyond performance: the entire host OS boots
|
||||
from a consumer-grade portable USB drive not designed for 24/7 server use.
|
||||
|
||||
**tsys3 correction:** Previously documented as HDD. Actually boots from a
|
||||
**Samsung PM961 NVMe 512GB SSD** -- the fastest existing local storage in the
|
||||
fleet. Its 349 GB of local-lvm is excellent for wnode boot disk use.
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical observation: every k8s host has 0% used local-lvm.** tsys3
|
||||
(Samsung PM961 **NVMe**, 349 GB), tsys6 (WD My Passport **USB 2.0** HDD,
|
||||
1.7 TB), tsys7 (WD portable **USB 2.0** HDD, 1.7 TB) all have unused local
|
||||
storage.
|
||||
|
||||
**However, only tsys3's local-lvm is suitable for VM storage.** tsys6 and
|
||||
tsys7 local-lvm is USB 2.0 portable HDD (~30-35 MB/s) -- slower than
|
||||
NFS-over-HDD and unsuitable for wnode boot disks.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.4 Disk speed tiers summary
|
||||
|
||||
| Tier | Where | Speed class | Best for |
|
||||
|------|-------|------------|----------|
|
||||
| **NVMe** | tsys3 (Samsung PM961), tsys5 (Friday addition), **tsys2 (Samsung 960 PRO 512GB)** | 2000-3500 MB/s | HPC scratch, ETL staging, container runtime, wnode boot, etcd |
|
||||
| **Local SSD** | tsys9 (PNY CS900, 136 GB), **tsys2 (Samsung 850 EVO 1TB)** | 500 MB/s | wnode boot disk, etcd |
|
||||
| **NFS-SSD** | tsys5 D3 (SK hynix, **SAS post-Friday**), tsys5 T5-SSD (Samsung) | 200-400 MB/s over NFS | **k8s worker scratch only** (etcd, container cache, ephemeral volumes) |
|
||||
| **NFS-HDD** | tsys4 D2/D5, tsys5 S1-S4 | 80-120 MB/s over NFS | Bulk data, large disks, non-critical VMs, **wnode boot on tsys6/7** |
|
||||
| **Local SATA HDD** | tsys1 local-lvm | 100-150 MB/s | Host OS only |
|
||||
| **USB 2.0 HDD** | tsys6/7 local-lvm (WD My Passport) | **~30-35 MB/s** | **NOTHING -- slower than NFS, do not use for VMs** |
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.5 Storage tier characterization per host
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | Storage profile | Detail |
|
||||
|------|----------------|--------|
|
||||
| **tsys2** | **SSD/NVMe only** | 960 PRO NVMe 512GB + 850 EVO SATA SSD 1TB. No spinning disk. |
|
||||
| **tsys3** | **NVMe only** | Samsung PM961 NVMe 512GB. No spinning disk. |
|
||||
| **tsys5** | **Hybrid** (fast-tier hub) | NVMe (local, Friday) + D3 SSD + T5-SSD + S1-S4 HDD |
|
||||
| **tsys4** | **Bulk/spinning disk only** | D2 HDD 3TB + D5 HDD 2TB. D3 SSD leaving Friday. PBS target on SMR HDD. |
|
||||
| **tsys9** | **Local SSD + NFS** | PNY CS900 SSD 136GB local + NFS client |
|
||||
| **tsys1** | **Local HDD + NFS** | Small local-lvm + NFS client |
|
||||
| **tsys6/7** | **NFS only** | local-lvm is USB 2.0 HDD (unusable for VMs). All VMs on NFS. |
|
||||
|
||||
### 3.6 All exports are single-disk with no redundancy
|
||||
|
||||
Every NFS export is a single physical disk formatted ext4. No RAID, no ZFS
|
||||
mirror, no mdraid. A single disk failure takes down every VM whose disk lives
|
||||
on that export. This applies to **both storage servers** and to the **PBS
|
||||
backup target** (a single 4.5T SMR drive).

## 5. Kubernetes Node Distribution (re-audited 21:50 CDT)
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.1 pfv-k8s cnode (control plane) placement -- CURRENT
|
||||
|
||||
| VMID | Name | Hypervisor | Storage | NFS Server | Changed? |
|
||||
|------|------|------------|---------|-----------|----------|
|
||||
| 906 | cnode1 | **tsys9** | D5 | tsys4 | **MOVED from tsys1** |
|
||||
| 705 | cnode2 | **tsys7** | D2 | tsys4 | **MOVED from tsys6** |
|
||||
| 106 | cnode3 | tsys1 | D2 | tsys4 | no change |
|
||||
| 601 | cnode4 | tsys6 | D2 | tsys4 | no change |
|
||||
| 706 | cnode5 | **tsys7** | **S2** | **tsys5** | **MOVED from tsys6, storage moved D5→S2** |
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage distribution:**
|
||||
|
||||
| Storage server | cnodes | Quorum impact if it fails |
|
||||
|---------------|--------|--------------------------|
|
||||
| tsys4 (D2+D5) | **4** (cnode1,2,3,4) | Only cnode5 survives = **QUORUM LOST** |
|
||||
| tsys5 (S2) | **1** (cnode5) | 4 survive = quorum OK |
|
||||
|
||||
**Progress:** cnode5 is now on tsys5 (was all 5 on tsys4). But 4-of-5 on tsys4
|
||||
still means a tsys4 failure loses quorum. **Need 2 more cnodes on tsys5.**
|
||||
|
||||
**Host distribution:** cnodes spread across 4 hosts (tsys1, tsys6, tsys7,
|
||||
tsys9) -- good host diversity.
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.2 pfv-k8s wnode (worker) placement -- CURRENT
|
||||
|
||||
| VMID | Name | Hypervisor | Storage | NFS Server | RAM | Status | Changed? |
|
||||
|------|------|------------|---------|-----------|-----|--------|----------|
|
||||
| 102 | wnode-tsys1 | tsys1 | S2 | tsys5 | 4 GB | **STOPPED** | **NEW** |
|
||||
| 313 | wnode-tsys3 | tsys3 | D5 | tsys4 | **28 GB** | running | **RAM bumped 20→28** |
|
||||
| 509 | wnode-tsys5 | tsys5 | D2 | tsys4 | 32 GB | running | no change |
|
||||
| 100 | wnode-tsys6 | tsys6 | D5 | tsys4 | 32 GB | running | **NOW RUNNING** |
|
||||
| 701 | wnode-tsys7 | tsys7 | D5 | tsys4 | 32 GB | running | no change |
|
||||
| 905 | wnode-tsys9 | tsys9 | **S2** | tsys5 | 4 GB | running | **Storage moved S3→S2** |
|
||||
|
||||
**One wnode per host achieved** (tsys1,3,5,6,7,9). wnode-tsys1 is created but
|
||||
stopped. wnode-tsys6 restarted.
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage distribution:**
|
||||
|
||||
| Storage server | wnodes | Notes |
|
||||
|---------------|--------|-------|
|
||||
| tsys4 (D2+D5) | 4 (tsys3,5,6,7) | Still concentrated |
|
||||
| tsys5 (S2) | 2 (tsys1,tsys9) | Improving |
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.3 Summary: k8s node storage distribution
|
||||
|
||||
| Storage server | cnodes | wnodes | Total k8s nodes |
|
||||
|---------------|--------|--------|-----------------|
|
||||
| **tsys4 NFS** | **4 (80%)** | **4 (67%)** | **8 (73%)** |
|
||||
| **tsys5 NFS** | **1 (20%)** | **2 (33%)** | **3 (27%)** |
|
||||
| Local SSD/NVMe | 0 | 0 | 0 (0%) |
|
||||
|
||||
**Was 90%/10%. Now 73%/27%.** Improving but still tsys4-heavy. Target: 3
|
||||
cnodes on each storage server (60/40 or better) so either server failing
|
||||
leaves quorum intact.
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.4 Remaining cnode migration needed for etcd quorum survival
|
||||
|
||||
To survive a tsys4 failure with quorum (3 of 5 alive), at least 3 cnodes must
|
||||
be on tsys5:
|
||||
|
||||
| Action | Effect |
|
||||
|--------|--------|
|
||||
| Move cnode3 (D2→S3 on tsys5) | 3 cnodes on tsys5, 2 on tsys4. tsys4 fail = 3 survive |
|
||||
| Move cnode4 (D2→S2 on tsys5) | Same result, different disk |
|
||||
| Leave cnode1 and one other on tsys4 | tsys5 fail = 4 survive (OK) |
|
||||
|
||||
**Simplest path:** migrate cnode3 and cnode4 storage to tsys5 (S3 and S2) via
|
||||
PDM. Then tsys4 failure leaves cnode5 + cnode3 + cnode4 = 3 of 5 = quorum OK.
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.5 Future k8s architecture (next session -- see K8S.md)
|
||||
|
||||
The k8s layer will be tackled soon. Key requirements from user:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Platform:** vcluster + Rancher for multi-tenant management
|
||||
- **Auth:** OIDC to Keycloak (running on Cloudron in Reston, VA production)
|
||||
- **Workload isolation (vcluster per tenant):**
|
||||
- RackRental workloads (containerlab network labs)
|
||||
- Suborbital ITAR (compliance-restricted)
|
||||
- Suborbital non-ITAR
|
||||
- Starting Line Productions customer workloads
|
||||
- **Solar-aware scale-out:** PowerEdge 19xx and 2950 systems (older hardware)
|
||||
will be brought online during peak solar production for burst capacity.
|
||||
These older cores/ram supplement the main fleet when power is abundant.
|
||||
- **WNode sizing:** every Proxmox node will have a wnode. Some nodes will host
|
||||
both cnodes + wnodes. Worker sizes will vary from small (4 GB, fitting into
|
||||
leftover host capacity) to large (28-32 GB, consuming most of a host).
|
||||
- **Friday final audit:** tsys2 will be loaded with Proxmox on Friday, and a
|
||||
full final audit will be performed at that time (post-NVMe install on tsys5,
|
||||
post-D3 SSD relocation, post-tsys4 NIC+RAM).
|
||||
|
||||
### 5.4 sectestbed k8s nodes (separate from pfv-k8s)
|
||||
|
||||
tsys5 also hosts a separate sectestbed kubernetes stack using local storage:
|
||||
|
||||
| VMID | Name | Storage |
|
||||
|------|------|---------|
|
||||
| 5106 | sectestbed-k8s-cnode | local-nonprod (local HDD) |
|
||||
| 5107 | sectestbed-k8s-wnode | local-nonprod (local HDD) |
|
||||
|
||||
These are on local storage (good -- no NFS dependency) but on a single host's
|
||||
single local disk (no redundancy). They are isolated from the pfv-k8s cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Storage Redundancy Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.1 -01/-02 infrastructure pair audit
|
||||
|
||||
Two -01/-02 pairs exist in the fleet:
|
||||
|
||||
**Pair 1: pfv-netinfra (network infrastructure)**
|
||||
|
||||
| Role | VMID | Host | Storage | NFS Server |
|
||||
|------|------|------|---------|-----------|
|
||||
| -01 | 103 | tsys1 | D5 | **tsys4** |
|
||||
| -02 | 904 | tsys9 | D2 | **tsys4** |
|
||||
|
||||
**Verdict: HOST redundancy OK (different hosts), STORAGE redundancy FAILED.**
|
||||
Both halves depend on tsys4. If tsys4 goes down, both netinfra VMs lose their
|
||||
disks. The -02 half should be on an S2/S3/S4 export from tsys5.
|
||||
|
||||
**Pair 2: tsys-ucs (Univention Corporate Server)**
|
||||
|
||||
| Role | VMID | Host | Storage | NFS Server |
|
||||
|------|------|------|---------|-----------|
|
||||
| -01 | 108 | tsys1 | D2 | **tsys4** |
|
||||
| -02 | 902 | tsys9 | D5 | **tsys4** |
|
||||
|
||||
**Verdict: HOST redundancy OK (different hosts), STORAGE redundancy FAILED.**
|
||||
Same issue. Both halves on tsys4. The -02 half should be on tsys5 storage.
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.2 Redundancy principle for paired VMs
|
||||
|
||||
For any -01/-02 pair to survive a single storage server failure:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-01 VM disk -> tsys4 NFS export (D2/D3/D5)
|
||||
-02 VM disk -> tsys5 NFS export (S2/S3/S4/T5-SSD)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This ensures that losing either tsys4 or tsys5 takes down only one half of
|
||||
the pair. Currently, **both pairs fail this test** because both halves are on
|
||||
tsys4.
|
||||
|
||||
### 6.3 NFS server failure blast radius
|
||||
|
||||
If **tsys4** goes offline (USB NIC failure, disk failure, reboot):
|
||||
|
||||
| Impact | Count |
|
||||
|--------|-------|
|
||||
| k8s cnodes that lose storage | 5 of 5 (**etcd quorum lost**) |
|
||||
| k8s wnodes that lose storage | 4 of 5 |
|
||||
| Infrastructure VMs that lose storage | 11 of 12 on tsys1 (all on D2/D5) |
|
||||
| Total VMs that lose storage | **27 of 40 (68%)** |
|
||||
|
||||
If **tsys5** goes offline:
|
||||
|
||||
| Impact | Count |
|
||||
|--------|-------|
|
||||
| k8s cnodes that lose storage | 0 of 5 |
|
||||
| k8s wnodes that lose storage | 1 of 5 |
|
||||
| Total VMs that lose storage | 1 of 40 (3%) |
|
||||
|
||||
**tsys4 is a massive blast-radius liability. tsys5 is barely used.**
|
||||
Rebalancing VM storage across both servers dramatically reduces risk.

## 7. Local SSD/NVMe Opportunity
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.1 Available fast tiers (currently unused by k8s)
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | Device | Type | Size | Available for VMs? | Currently used by k8s? |
|
||||
|------|--------|------|------|--------------------|-----------------------|
|
||||
| tsys4 | D3 (SK hynix SC300, USB) | SSD | 512 GB | Yes (via NFS) | **No** |
|
||||
| tsys5 | T5-SSD (Samsung 860 PRO) | SSD | 256 GB | Yes (via NFS) | **No** (used by ultix-streaming) |
|
||||
| tsys5 | **New NVMe (Friday)** | **NVMe** | TBD | **Yes (local or NFS)** | **No** |
|
||||
| tsys9 | local-lvm (PNY CS900) | SSD | 137 GB free | Yes (local) | **No** |
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.2 Why local storage matters for k8s nodes
|
||||
|
||||
Kubernetes nodes are latency-sensitive in two specific areas:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **etcd (control plane):** etcd writes are synchronous and latency-critical.
|
||||
On NFS over HDD, every etcd write traverses: VM -> virtio-scsi -> NFS
|
||||
client -> TCP -> USB dongle (on tsys4) -> ext4 -> spinning disk. Typical
|
||||
latency: 2-10 ms per write. On local SSD: 0.1-0.5 ms. On NVMe: 0.02-0.1 ms.
|
||||
This directly affects k8s API responsiveness and pod scheduling speed.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Container image pulls:** Worker nodes pull container images frequently.
|
||||
On NFS-over-HDD, image layer extraction is seek-bound and slow. Local SSD
|
||||
eliminates the network hop and reduces seek time. This matters most for
|
||||
RackRental/containerlab workloads that spin up containers rapidly.
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.3 Current waste: tsys9 local SSD
|
||||
|
||||
tsys9 has a 250 GB PNY CS900 SSD with 137 GB of LVM-thin space available.
|
||||
**Zero VMs use it.** All 5 VMs on tsys9 boot from NFS. The local SSD sits
|
||||
idle. wnode-tsys9 (VM 905) would benefit significantly from local SSD --
|
||||
its disk is currently on S3 (tsys5 NFS over a Seagate HDD).
|
||||
|
||||
### 7.4 Upcoming opportunity: tsys5 NVMe (Friday)
|
||||
|
||||
The PCI NVMe being added to tsys5 will be the fastest storage tier in the
|
||||
fleet. Two placement options:
|
||||
|
||||
**Option A: NFS-export the NVMe (shared).** All hosts can use it. Good for
|
||||
VMs that might need migration. Adds the NFS/network overhead back.
|
||||
|
||||
**Option B: Local-only on tsys5.** VMs on tsys5 get full NVMe speed with no
|
||||
network overhead. Best for k8s wnode-tsys5 and sectestbed VMs. Cannot be
|
||||
accessed from other hosts.
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation:** Option B (local-only). k8s worker nodes do not need
|
||||
shared storage -- pods are ephemeral and reschedule on failure. The NVMe
|
||||
should be formatted as a Proxmox directory storage (or LVM-thin) on tsys5
|
||||
and used for local VM images.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 8. Role Alignment Audit
|
||||
|
||||
Per the user's intended role taxonomy: tsys1/9 = infrastructure + k8s control
|
||||
plane; tsys2/3/6/7 = k8s workers; tsys4/5 = storage. Cnodes on tsys1/9 is
|
||||
**correct by design** (keeps heavy hosts free for workers).
|
||||
|
||||
### 8.1 VMs that need to move
|
||||
|
||||
| VMID | Name | Current host | Issue | Target |
|
||||
|------|------|-------------|-------|--------|
|
||||
| 509 | pfv-k8s-wnode-tsys5 | tsys5 (storage) | Worker on storage host | tsys7 or tsys2 (when online) |
|
||||
| 905 | pfv-k8s-wnode-tsys9 | tsys9 (infra) | Can stay if small; user decides | tsys9 OK if small wnode |
|
||||
|
||||
### 8.2 Host capacity for k8s nodes
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | Role | Current k8s nodes | k8s RAM used | RAM total | Headroom |
|
||||
|------|------|-------------------|-------------|-----------|----------|
|
||||
| tsys1 | Infra+k8s ctrl | 2 cnodes | 8 GB | 32 GB | ~12 GB (after 11 infra VMs) |
|
||||
| tsys3 | K8s worker | 1 wnode | 20 GB | 32 GB | ~12 GB |
|
||||
| tsys6 | K8s worker | 3 cnodes + 1 wnode (stopped) | 12 GB | 128 GB | **~116 GB** |
|
||||
| tsys7 | K8s worker | 1 wnode | 32 GB | 192 GB | **~160 GB** |
|
||||
| tsys9 | Infra+k8s ctrl | 1 wnode | 4 GB | 24 GB | ~12 GB (after 4 infra VMs) |
|
||||
| tsys2 | K8s worker | 0 (incoming) | 0 | 32 GB | ~32 GB |
|
||||
|
||||
**tsys6 and tsys7 are dramatically underutilized** -- 116 GB and 160 GB of
|
||||
free RAM respectively. They should be the primary targets for heavy worker
|
||||
nodes and ETL/HPC workloads.
|
||||
|
||||
### 8.3 tsys6 wnode-tsys6 is stopped
|
||||
|
||||
VM 100 (pfv-k8s-wnode-tsys6) is stopped on tsys6. Its disk is on D5 (tsys4
|
||||
NFS). This wnode should be restarted (or recreated on local-lvm) to restore
|
||||
cluster capacity.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 9. Network Findings
|
||||
|
||||
### 9.1 tsys9 storage NIC is a USB dongle (new finding)
|
||||
|
||||
Validating tsys9 revealed that its storage network interface
|
||||
(`enx9c69d36a5b6c`) is USB-attached (`parentbus usb`). This is the same
|
||||
anti-pattern as tsys4. The onboard Intel NIC (`enp0s31f6`) is used for
|
||||
management; storage uses the USB adapter.
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact:** Same as tsys4 -- achieves line rate but is susceptible to cable
|
||||
wobble, ESD, and USB controller resets. For an infrastructure host with 5
|
||||
VMs, this is a reliability risk.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigation:** tsys9 is an OptiPlex 7080 SFF -- it has PCIe slots. A
|
||||
PCIe NIC would eliminate this risk (same recommendation as tsys4).
|
||||
|
||||
### 9.2 tsys4 and tsys5 still blocked (Friday hardware work)
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | Blocker | Staged fix |
|
||||
|------|---------|-----------|
|
||||
| tsys4 | USB cdc_ncm storage NIC | PCIe NIC install + RAM upgrade (16 to 64 GB) |
|
||||
| tsys5 | bond0 broken (1 of 2 slaves) | Plug 2nd ethernet cable + apply layer3+4 hash |
|
||||
|
||||
### 9.3 LACP resolved on tsys6/tsys7
|
||||
|
||||
tsys6 to tsys7 storage path now measures **1.83 Gbps** (was 943 Mbps).
|
||||
The switch LACP hash change took effect after renegotiation. The 56-106K
|
||||
retransmits on this path are confirmed to be non-lossy multi-flow TCP-over-
|
||||
LACP overhead. See `RESULTS.md` for the full analysis.
|
||||
|
||||
### 9.4 NFS nconnect=4 + noatime confirmed active
|
||||
|
||||
All hosts (including tsys9) show `nconnect=4,noatime` in their NFS mount
|
||||
options. Each host maintains 4 TCP connections per NFS mount to each storage
|
||||
server. This was the Tier 0 tuning item from the performance optimization
|
||||
engagement and is confirmed working cluster-wide.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 10. Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
**No changes have been made. These are assessment-only recommendations.**
|
||||
See `K8S.md` for the detailed kubernetes architecture deep-dive.
|
||||
|
||||
### 10.1 CRITICAL: Critical infrastructure VM placement (netinfra, UCS)
|
||||
|
||||
These are the most critical production VMs in the fleet. They must survive
|
||||
any single-point failure (host, storage server, or disk).
|
||||
|
||||
**Design principle for -01/-02 HA pairs:**
|
||||
- Different hypervisors (already satisfied: tsys1 vs tsys9)
|
||||
- Different storage servers (currently FAILED: all on tsys4)
|
||||
- Prefer SSD for latency-sensitive services
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommended placement:**
|
||||
|
||||
| VM | Host | Storage | Tier | Free space | Rationale |
|
||||
|----|------|---------|------|-----------|-----------|
|
||||
| **netinfra-01** (103) | tsys1 | **D5 (tsys4 HDD)** | NFS-HDD | 1.5 TB | DNS/DHCP/NTP = minimal I/O. Stays put. |
|
||||
| **netinfra-02** (904) | tsys9 | **S3 (tsys5 HDD)** | NFS-HDD | 870 GB | Move from D2. Cross-server redundancy. Minimal I/O. |
|
||||
| **ucs-01** (108) | tsys1 | **D2 (tsys4 HDD)** | NFS-HDD | 2.4 TB | Stays put. LDAP/AD does not need SSD. |
|
||||
| **ucs-02** (902) | tsys9 | **S2 (tsys5 HDD)** | NFS-HDD | 870 GB | Move from D5. Cross-server redundancy. No SSD needed. |
|
||||
|
||||
**Failure survival matrix (all single-point failures):**
|
||||
|
||||
| Failure | netinfra-01 | netinfra-02 | ucs-01 | ucs-02 | Result |
|
||||
|---------|-------------|-------------|--------|--------|--------|
|
||||
| tsys4 dies | dies (D5) | **alive** (S3) | dies (D2) | **alive** (S2) | netinfra-02 + ucs-02 alive |
|
||||
| tsys5 dies | **alive** (D5) | dies (S3) | **alive** (D2) | dies (S2) | netinfra-01 + ucs-01 alive |
|
||||
| tsys1 dies | dies | **alive** | dies | **alive** | -02 pair survives |
|
||||
| tsys9 dies | **alive** | dies | **alive** | dies | -01 pair survives |
|
||||
| Any single disk | **all 4 on different disks/servers** | **all 4 alive** | | | |
|
||||
|
||||
**Why this works:** Every row has at least one netinfra and one UCS alive.
|
||||
The network (DNS/DHCP) and directory (AD/LDAP) services never go fully dark.
|
||||
|
||||
**D3 SSD repurposed:** With UCS staying on HDD, the D3 SSD (moving to tsys5
|
||||
Friday) is freed for latency-sensitive workloads that actually benefit from
|
||||
SSD -- sectestbed k8s nodes, CI/CD artifact cache, or a container image
|
||||
registry mirror. Not infrastructure VMs.
|
||||
|
||||
### 10.2 CRITICAL: Cnode (control plane) storage split
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:** All 5 cnodes store disks on tsys4. D2 disk failure loses etcd
|
||||
quorum (3 of 5 cnodes share D2).
|
||||
|
||||
**Target: cnodes weighted toward tsys1/tsys9 (lightweight hosts), freeing
|
||||
tsys6/tsys7 for heavy workers. Storage splits across tsys4 and tsys5.**
|
||||
|
||||
| cnode | Current host | **Target host** | Current storage | **Target storage** | Rationale |
|
||||
|-------|-------------|----------------|----------------|-------------------|-----------|
|
||||
| cnode1 (107) | tsys1 | **tsys1** (stays) | D5 (tsys4) | **D5 (tsys4)** -- no change | Already correct |
|
||||
| cnode3 (106) | tsys1 | **tsys1** (stays) | D2 (tsys4) | **S2 (tsys5)** -- **MOVE disk** | Split storage to tsys5 |
|
||||
| cnode2 (603) | tsys6 | **tsys9** | D2 (tsys4) | **D2 (tsys4)** -- no disk change | Free tsys6 for heavy workers |
|
||||
| cnode4 (601) | tsys6 | **tsys9** | D2 (tsys4) | **D5 (tsys4)** -- spread disk | Free tsys6; spread off D2 |
|
||||
| cnode5 (602) | tsys6 | **tsys3** | D5 (tsys4) | **S3 (tsys5)** -- **MOVE disk** | Free tsys6; split storage to tsys5 |
|
||||
|
||||
**Result after changes:**
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | cnodes | Storage server |
|
||||
|------|--------|---------------|
|
||||
| tsys1 | cnode1 (D5), cnode3 (S2) | tsys4 + tsys5 |
|
||||
| tsys9 | cnode2 (D2), cnode4 (D5) | tsys4 |
|
||||
| tsys3 | cnode5 (S3) | tsys5 |
|
||||
|
||||
- 3 cnodes on tsys4 storage, 2 on tsys5. Either storage server can fail and
|
||||
etcd keeps quorum (3 of 5 survive).
|
||||
- D2 has 1 cnode (was 3). D5 has 2. S2 and S3 have 1 each. No single disk
|
||||
holds more than 2 cnodes.
|
||||
- Cnodes now on 3 hosts (tsys1, tsys9, tsys3). Any single host failure leaves
|
||||
at least 3 cnodes alive.
|
||||
- **tsys6 and tsys7 are fully freed** for heavy worker nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: tsys1 RAM is tight (32 GB, 11 infra VMs). Adding 0 new cnodes (keeping
|
||||
the 2 already there) is feasible with KSM. tsys9 (24 GB) has room for 2
|
||||
cnodes (8 GB). tsys3 (32 GB) has room for 1 cnode (4 GB) alongside its wnode.
|
||||
|
||||
### 10.3 HIGH: Wnode distribution -- one per host, tiered storage
|
||||
|
||||
**Target: one wnode per hypervisor host, using local storage where possible
|
||||
and NFS-HDD for bulk data.**
|
||||
|
||||
| wnode | Host | Boot disk (OS+containers) | Data disk (bulk/ETL) | Rationale |
|
||||
|-------|------|--------------------------|---------------------|-----------|
|
||||
| wnode-tsys1 | tsys1 | D5 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | Small wnode on infra host. Minimal capacity. |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys3 | tsys3 | **local-lvm (349 GB NVMe)** | S3 (NFS) | Move from NFS to **NVMe** (Samsung PM961). Fastest boot disk after tsys5/2. |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys6 | tsys6 | D2 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | **Stays on NFS.** local-lvm is USB 2.0 HDD (~30 MB/s) -- slower than NFS. |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys7 | tsys7 | D5 (tsys4 NFS) | -- | **Stays on NFS.** local-lvm is USB 2.0 HDD (~30 MB/s) -- slower than NFS. |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys9 | tsys9 | **local-lvm (136 GB SSD)** | S2 (NFS) | Move from NFS to local SSD. Fast boot, NFS for bulk. |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys2 | tsys2 | **NVMe (Samsung 960 PRO 512GB)** | **SATA SSD (Samsung 850 EVO 1TB)** | **Best storage of any wnode.** No NFS needed -- 1.5 TB local SSD. |
|
||||
| wnode-tsys5 | tsys5 | **new NVMe (local)** | local-nonprod (HDD) | **Fastest wnode in fleet.** HPC/ETL workloads land here. |
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage tiering strategy per wnode:**
|
||||
|
||||
Each wnode gets two disk tiers mapped to k8s StorageClasses:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Boot + container runtime** (local-lvm or NVMe): OS, kubelet, container
|
||||
images, ephemeral storage. This is where local SSD/NVMe shines -- container
|
||||
image pulls and layer extraction are seek-bound and benefit enormously from
|
||||
low-latency storage.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Bulk data** (NFS-HDD via D2/D5/S2/S3): weather/GIS datasets, ETL staging
|
||||
areas, large files that do not fit on local storage. Mounted as a second
|
||||
disk in the VM and exposed to k8s as a StorageClass.
|
||||
|
||||
This maps to two k8s StorageClasses:
|
||||
- `local-storage`: bound to the wnode's boot/local disk (fast, ephemeral)
|
||||
- `nfs-bulk`: bound to NFS exports (slow, persistent, large capacity)
|
||||
|
||||
### 10.4 HIGH: Dedicate D3 SSD exclusively to k8s scratch
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage philosophy (user directive): NVMe/SSD is for k8s worker scratch
|
||||
space and ultix-streaming (developer workstation running "cluster of 1"
|
||||
pre-production jobs). Spinning rust hosts all other infrastructure VMs**
|
||||
(UCS, netinfra, LibreNMS, SIEM, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
SSD allocation after Friday:
|
||||
- **D3 (tsys5 SAS, 445 GB free, 0% used)** -- dedicated to k8s scratch via
|
||||
the `nfs-ssd` StorageClass (etcd, container cache, ephemeral volumes).
|
||||
- **T5-SSD (tsys5 SAS, 140 GB free)** -- ultix-streaming (VM 5111) stays here
|
||||
(developer workstation, runs single-node test jobs before k8s). Remaining
|
||||
140 GB available for k8s.
|
||||
|
||||
**Deep-dive on exact k8s scratch allocation is deferred to the next session**
|
||||
(K8S.md) once we know the k8s distribution, job scheduler, and workload mix.
|
||||
|
||||
### 10.5 MEDIUM: Restart wnode-tsys6
|
||||
|
||||
VM 100 (pfv-k8s-wnode-tsys6) is stopped on tsys6. Recreate on local-lvm
|
||||
(1.7 TB free) instead of D5 NFS. This restores cluster capacity and moves
|
||||
the boot disk to local storage simultaneously.
|
||||
|
||||
### 10.6 MEDIUM: tsys5 NVMe placement (Friday)
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation: local-only on tsys5, formatted as Proxmox LVM-thin or
|
||||
directory storage.**
|
||||
|
||||
Use for:
|
||||
- wnode-tsys5 boot disk (primary beneficiary -- HPC/ETL workloads)
|
||||
- sectestbed VMs that need fast scratch space
|
||||
- Not NFS-exported (avoid adding network overhead to the fastest tier)
|
||||
|
||||
### 10.7 LOW: Add PCIe NIC to tsys9
|
||||
|
||||
tsys9's storage NIC is a USB dongle. tsys9 is an OptiPlex 7080 with PCIe
|
||||
slots. A $150 PCIe NIC eliminates the USB reliability risk.
|
||||
|
||||
### 10.8 LOW: Standardize PVE/kernel versions
|
||||
|
||||
tsys3 is on PVE kernel 7.0.14; others on 6.17.x. PVE-manager versions vary
|
||||
(9.1.1 / 9.1.5 / 9.2.5). Standardize in a maintenance window.
|
||||

## 11. Hardware End-of-Support Exposure
|
||||
|
||||
| Host | EOS date | Years past | Form factor |
|
||||
|------|----------|-----------|-------------|
|
||||
| pfv-tsys6 (R610) | 2013-05 | 13.2 | 1U server |
|

| pfv-tsys3 (7510) | 2020-07 | 6.0 | Laptop |
|

| pfv-tsys2 (5520) | TBD | -- | Laptop |
|
||||
| **pfv-tsys9 (7080)** | **2024-02** | **2.4** | **SFF desktop (only supported)** |
|
||||
|
||||
**6 of 8 hosts are past vendor end-of-support.** Only tsys9 is still covered.
|
||||
The two actual rack servers (R610, R620) are the most overdue for replacement.
|
||||
This belongs in the next budget cycle.
|

|
||||
## 12. Open Items
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.1 Immediate (do today via PDM)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Migrate ucs-02** (VM 902) from D5 (tsys4) to S2 (tsys5) for cross-server
|
||||
redundancy. UCS stays on HDD.
|
||||
2. **Migrate netinfra-02** (VM 904) from D2 (tsys4) to S3 (tsys5).
|
||||
3. **Migrate cnode3** (VM 106) from D2 (tsys4) to S3 (tsys5) -- etcd quorum.
|
||||
4. **Migrate cnode4** (VM 601) from D2 (tsys4) to S2 (tsys5) -- etcd quorum.
|
||||
5. **Start wnode-tsys1** (VM 102) if the cluster needs the capacity.
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.2 Friday maintenance window (user action)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **tsys4:** Install PCIe NIC (replace USB dongle), add RAM (16 to 64 GB),
|
||||
reconfigure `/etc/network/interfaces`, reboot.
|
||||
2. **tsys5:** Plug 2nd ethernet cable, verify bond0, apply layer3+4 hash,
|
||||
install PCI NVMe, relocate D3 SSD from tsys4 USB to tsys5 SAS port,
|
||||
format NVMe as local storage, reboot.
|
||||
3. **tsys2:** Load Proxmox (replacing Windows 10).
|
||||
4. **Final audit:** Re-run `deploy-check.sh` across all hosts including tsys2.
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.3 Post-Friday validation
|
||||
|
||||
1. Re-run iperf matrix: `./iperf-full-matrix.sh`
|
||||
2. Validate tsys4 and tsys5: `./validate-fixes.sh pfv-tsys4 && ./validate-fixes.sh pfv-tsys5`
|
||||
3. Run `scripts/check.sh` on tsys2 once Proxmox is loaded.
|
||||
4. Update PROJECT.md with post-hardware numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.4 Future: Kubernetes deep-dive (see K8S.md)
|
||||
|
||||
Next major workstream. Requirements captured:
|
||||
- **vcluster + Rancher** for multi-tenant k8s management
|
||||
- **OIDC auth** to Keycloak (on Cloudron, Reston VA production)
|
||||
- **Workload isolation** via separate vclusters:
|
||||
- RackRental (containerlab)
|
||||
- Suborbital ITAR
|
||||
- Suborbital non-ITAR
|
||||
- Starting Line Productions customer workloads
|
||||
- **Solar-aware scale-out:** PowerEdge 19xx + 2950 systems brought online
|
||||
during peak solar production for burst capacity
|
||||
- **Every host gets a wnode** (variable sizing: small 4 GB to large 32 GB)
|
||||
- **SSD/NVMe reserved for k8s scratch** (plus ultix-streaming exception)
|
||||
- **Spinning rust for all infrastructure VMs**
|
||||

# Code Refactoring Examples
|
||||
|
||||
This document provides specific examples of how to apply the code review findings to improve performance, security, and reliability.
|
||||
|
||||
## Package Installation Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (Current - Multiple Commands)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Line 27 in SetupNewSystem.sh
|
||||
apt-get -y install git sudo dmidecode curl
|
||||
|
||||
# Lines 117-183 (later in script)
|
||||
DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" apt-get -qq --yes -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold" install \
|
||||
virt-what \
|
||||
auditd \
|
||||
aide \
|
||||
# ... many more packages
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### After (Optimized - Single Command)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
function install_all_packages() {
|
||||
print_info "Installing all required packages..."
|
||||
|
||||
# All packages in logical groups for better readability
|
||||
local packages=(
|
||||
# Core system tools
|
||||
git sudo dmidecode curl wget net-tools htop
|
||||
|
||||
# Security and auditing
|
||||
auditd aide fail2ban lynis rkhunter
|
||||
|
||||
# Monitoring and SNMP
|
||||
snmpd snmp-mibs-downloader libsnmp-dev
|
||||
|
||||
# Virtualization detection
|
||||
virt-what
|
||||
|
||||
# System utilities
|
||||

|
||||
# Development and debugging
|
||||
build-essential dkms
|
||||
|
||||
# Network services
|
||||
openssh-server ufw
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# Single package installation command with retry logic
|
||||
local max_attempts=3
|
||||
local attempt=1
|
||||
|
||||
while [[ $attempt -le $max_attempts ]]; do
|
||||
if DEBIAN_FRONTEND="noninteractive" apt-get -qq --yes -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold" install "${packages[@]}"; then
|
||||
print_success "All packages installed successfully"
|
||||
return 0
|
||||
else
|
||||
print_warning "Package installation attempt $attempt failed"
|
||||
if [[ $attempt -lt $max_attempts ]]; then
|
||||
print_info "Retrying in 10 seconds..."
|
||||
sleep 10
|
||||
apt-get update # Refresh package cache before retry
|
||||
fi
|
||||
((attempt++))
|
||||
fi
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
print_error "Package installation failed after $max_attempts attempts"
|
||||
return 1
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Safe Download Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (Current - Unsafe Downloads)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Lines 61-63 in SetupNewSystem.sh
|
||||
curl --silent ${DL_ROOT}/ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/ZSH/tsys-zshrc >/etc/zshrc
|
||||
curl --silent ${DL_ROOT}/ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/SMTP/aliases >/etc/aliases
|
||||
curl --silent ${DL_ROOT}/ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/Syslog/rsyslog.conf >/etc/rsyslog.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### After (Safe Downloads with Error Handling)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
function download_system_configs() {
|
||||
print_info "Downloading system configuration files..."
|
||||
|
||||
# Source the safe download framework
|
||||
source "$PROJECT_ROOT/Framework-Includes/SafeDownload.sh"
|
||||
|
||||
# Define configuration downloads with checksums (optional)
|
||||
declare -A config_downloads=(
|
||||
["${DL_ROOT}/ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/ZSH/tsys-zshrc"]="/etc/zshrc"

|
||||
["${DL_ROOT}/ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/Syslog/rsyslog.conf"]="/etc/rsyslog.conf"
|
||||
["${DL_ROOT}/ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/SSH/Configs/tsys-sshd-config"]="/etc/ssh/sshd_config.tsys"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# Validate all URLs are accessible before starting
|
||||
local urls=()
|
||||
for url in "${!config_downloads[@]}"; do
|
||||
urls+=("$url")
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
if ! validate_required_urls "${urls[@]}"; then
|
||||
print_error "Some configuration URLs are not accessible"
|
||||
return 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
# Perform batch download with backup
|
||||
local failed_downloads=0
|
||||
for url in "${!config_downloads[@]}"; do
|
||||
local dest="${config_downloads[$url]}"
|
||||
if ! safe_config_download "$url" "$dest"; then
|
||||
((failed_downloads++))
|
||||
fi
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
if [[ $failed_downloads -eq 0 ]]; then
|
||||
print_success "All configuration files downloaded successfully"
|
||||
return 0
|
||||
else
|
||||
print_error "$failed_downloads configuration downloads failed"
|
||||
return 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Variable Quoting Fixes
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (Unsafe Variable Usage)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Line 244 in SetupNewSystem.sh
|
||||
chsh -s $(which zsh) root
|
||||
|
||||
# Multiple instances throughout codebase
|
||||
if [ -f $CONFIG_FILE ]; then
|
||||
cp $CONFIG_FILE $BACKUP_DIR
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### After (Proper Variable Quoting)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Safe variable usage with proper quoting
|
||||
chsh -s "$(which zsh)" root
|
||||
|
||||
# Consistent quoting pattern
|
||||
if [[ -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]]; then
|
||||
cp "$CONFIG_FILE" "$BACKUP_DIR/"
|
||||
fi

||||
|
||||
# Function parameter handling
|
||||

|
||||
return 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
print_info "Configuring service: $service_name"
|
||||
# Safe operations with quoted variables
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Service Management with Error Handling
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (Basic Service Operations)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Current pattern in various modules
|
||||
systemctl restart snmpd
|
||||
systemctl enable snmpd
|

```
|
||||
|
||||
### After (Robust Service Management)
|
||||
```bash

||||
print_error "Failed to start or enable $service"
|
||||
return 1
|
||||

## Batch Configuration Deployment
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (Individual File Operations)
|
||||
```bash

# TSYS FetchApply Security Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
The TSYS FetchApply infrastructure provisioning system is designed with security-first principles, implementing multiple layers of protection for server deployment and management.
|
||||
|
||||
## Current Security Features
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Secure Deployment Method ✅
|
||||
- **Git-based deployment:** Uses `git clone` instead of `curl | bash`
|
||||
- **Local execution:** Scripts run locally after inspection
|
||||
- **Version control:** Full audit trail of changes
|
||||
- **Code review:** Changes require explicit approval
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. HTTPS Enforcement ✅
|
||||
- **All downloads use HTTPS:** Eliminates man-in-the-middle attacks
|
||||
- **SSL certificate validation:** Automatic certificate checking
|
||||
- **Secure repositories:** Ubuntu archive, Dell, Proxmox all use HTTPS
|
||||
- **No HTTP fallbacks:** No insecure download methods
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. SSH Hardening
|
||||
- **Key-only authentication:** Password login disabled
|
||||
- **Secure ciphers:** Modern encryption algorithms only
|
||||
- **Fail2ban protection:** Automated intrusion prevention
|
||||
- **Custom SSH configuration:** Hardened sshd_config
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. System Security
|
||||
- **Firewall configuration:** Automated iptables rules
|
||||
- **Audit logging:** auditd with custom rules
|
||||
- **SIEM integration:** Wazuh agent deployment
|
||||
- **Compliance scanning:** SCAP-STIG automated checks
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Error Handling
|
||||
- **Bash strict mode:** `set -euo pipefail` prevents errors
|
||||
- **Centralized logging:** All operations logged with timestamps
|
||||
- **Graceful failures:** Proper cleanup on errors
|
||||
- **Line-level debugging:** Error reporting with line numbers
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Testing
|
||||
|
||||
### Automated Security Validation
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run security test suite
|
||||
./Project-Tests/run-tests.sh security
|
||||
|
||||
# Specific security tests
|
||||
./Project-Tests/security/https-enforcement.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Test Categories
|
||||
1. **HTTPS Enforcement:** Validates all URLs use HTTPS
|
||||
2. **Deployment Security:** Checks for secure deployment methods
|
||||
3. **SSL Certificate Validation:** Tests certificate authenticity
|
||||
4. **Permission Validation:** Verifies proper file permissions
|
||||
|
||||
## Threat Model
|
||||
|
||||
### Mitigated Threats
|
||||
- **Supply Chain Attacks:** Git-based deployment with review
|
||||
- **Man-in-the-Middle:** HTTPS-only downloads
|
||||
- **Privilege Escalation:** Proper permission models
|
||||
- **Unauthorized Access:** SSH hardening and key management
|
||||
|
||||
### Remaining Risks
|
||||
- **Secrets in Repository:** SSH keys stored in git (planned for removal)
|
||||
- **No Integrity Verification:** Downloads lack checksum validation
|
||||
- **No Backup/Recovery:** No rollback capability implemented
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||

## 1. tsys2 Windows hardware inventory (run on the Windows host)
|
||||
|
||||
pfv-tsys2 is currently Windows 10. Before rebuilding it as Proxmox, gather
|
||||
hardware data so the architecture plan can account for it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Option A: PowerShell (recommended — single command, copy-paste output)
|
||||
|
||||
Open **PowerShell as Administrator** and run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
# Full hardware inventory in one shot
|
||||
Write-Output "=== COMPUTER ==="
|
||||
Get-CimInstance Win32_ComputerSystem | Select-Object Manufacturer, Model, SystemType, TotalPhysicalMemory | Format-List
|
||||
|
||||
Write-Output "`n=== CPU ==="
|
||||
Get-CimInstance Win32_Processor | Select-Object Name, NumberOfCores, NumberOfLogicalProcessors, MaxClockSpeed | Format-List
|
||||
|
||||
Write-Output "`n=== MEMORY STICKS ==="
|
||||
Get-CimInstance Win32_PhysicalMemory | Select-Object Manufacturer, PartNumber, Capacity, Speed, ConfiguredClockSpeed, DeviceLocator, FormFactor | Format-Table -AutoSize

|
||||
Get-PnpDevice -PresentOnly | Where-Object { $_.Class -in @('DiskDrive','Net','USB') } | Select-Object Class, FriendlyName, Status | Format-Table -AutoSize
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the full output into a file (e.g., `tsys2-hardware.txt`) or paste it
|
||||
directly into the chat.
|
||||
|
||||
### Option B: Command Prompt (cmd.exe) fallbacks
|
||||
|
||||
If PowerShell is unavailable for some reason, these cmd commands give a
|
||||
subset:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
:: Computer model and serial
|
||||
wmic computersystem get manufacturer,model
|
||||
wmic bios get serialnumber
|
||||
|
||||
:: CPU
|
||||
wmic cpu get name,numberofcores,numberoflogicalprocessors,maxclockspeed
|
||||
|
||||
:: RAM (total)
|
||||
wmic computersystem get totalphysicalmemory
|
||||
|
||||
:: RAM sticks (per-slot detail)
|
||||
wmic memorychip get manufacturer,capacity,speed,partnumber,devicelocator
|
||||
|
||||
:: Disks
|
||||
wmic diskdrive get model,size,interfacetype,mediatype
|
||||
|
||||
:: Network adapters
|
||||
wmic nic where netenabled=true get name,speed,macaddress
|
||||
|
||||
:: GPU
|
||||
wmic path win32_videocontroller get name,adapterram,driverversion
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### What I'm looking for
|
||||
|
||||
- **Disk inventory**: Are there any SSDs/NVMe available locally? (Determines
|
||||
whether wnode-tsys2 can use local storage like the other wnodes.)
|
||||
- **Network adapters**: How many onboard NICs? Model? (Determines whether
|
||||
tsys2 needs a USB dongle for storage network like tsys4/9, or has a real
|
||||
onboard NIC available.)
|
||||
- **RAM layout**: Is all 32 GB in 1 stick, 2 sticks, or 4 sticks? (Affects
|
||||
memory bandwidth for HPC workloads — dual-channel matters.)
|
||||
- **GPU detail**: Confirm the Quadro M1200 model and VRAM for passthrough
|
||||
planning.
|
||||
- **PCIe slots**: Is there a free PCIe slot for adding a NIC or HBA?
|
||||
- **Service tag confirmation**: `GH1XZG2` (already on file from spreadsheet).
|
||||
|
||||
### STATUS: Collected 2026-07-27
|
||||
|
||||
**Disk inventory — RESOLVED:**
|
||||
- Disk 0: Samsung SSD 960 PRO **512 GB NVMe** (best local storage in fleet)
|
||||
- Disk 1: Samsung SSD 850 EVO **1 TB SATA SSD**
|
||||
- Both SSDs, no spinning rust. 1.5 TB total local SSD.
|
||||
|
||||
**Network adapters — RESOLVED (concerning):**
|
||||
- StorageNetwork: **ASIX USB to Gigabit Ethernet** (dongle, D4-81-D7-3E-0D-5E)
|
||||
- Ethernet: **Realtek USB GbE Family Controller** (also USB, 18-FD-CB-00-D2-CA)
|
||||
- Wi-Fi: Intel 8265 (disconnected)
|
||||
- **Both wired NICs are USB-attached.** Same anti-pattern as tsys4/9.
|
||||
Unavoidable on this laptop form factor — no onboard PCIe NIC available.
|
||||
|
||||
**GPU — RESOLVED:**
|
||||
- Intel HD Graphics 630 (integrated, 1 GB)
|
||||
- NVIDIA Quadro M1200 (4 GB, confirmed for passthrough)
|
||||
|
||||
**PCIe slots — RESOLVED:**
|
||||
- Slots 3/6/7/8 report "Available" but these are laptop M.2/WWAN slots, not
|
||||
user-accessible full PCIe. **Cannot add a PCIe NIC.** NVMe slot occupied
|
||||
by 960 PRO.
|
||||
|
||||
**RAM — PARTIAL:**
|
||||
- Total 32 GB confirmed (34,097,573,888 bytes).
|
||||
- Per-stick detail failed to run (PowerShell line-break split
|
||||
`Format-T` + `able`). Re-run the command below if bandwidth planning
|
||||
needs stick-level detail:
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
Get-CimInstance Win32_PhysicalMemory | Select-Object Manufacturer, PartNumber, Capacity, Speed, ConfiguredClockSpeed, DeviceLocator, FormFactor | Format-Table -AutoSize
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Service tag — CONFIRMED:** `GH1XZG2` (Precision 5520).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Friday maintenance window (physical hardware)
|
||||
|
||||
### tsys4 — install PCIe NIC + add RAM
|
||||
|
||||
1. Power down tsys4 (graceful shutdown via Proxmox UI or `shutdown -h now`).
|
||||
2. Install the **PCIe NIC** (Intel i350-T2 or similar 1 GbE dual-port).
|
||||
3. Add **RAM**: 16 GB → 64 GB DDR3 ECC.
|
||||
4. Power on, then update `/etc/network/interfaces` to replace
|
||||
`enx8cae4ccda926` (USB dongle) with the new PCIe NIC device name.
|
||||
5. Reboot to activate new NIC and NFS nconnect.
|
||||
6. Run `validate-fixes.sh pfv-tsys4` to confirm.
|
||||
|
||||
### tsys5 — plug storage cable + install NVMe + relocate D3 SSD
|
||||
|
||||
1. Plug the **second ethernet cable** into tsys5's dedicated storage NIC.
|
||||
2. Verify bond0 recovery: `cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0` — look for
|
||||
"Number of ports: 2" and a real partner MAC (not all zeros).
|
||||
3. Apply bond hash fix (same as tsys6/7):
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
echo "layer3+4" > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/xmit_hash_policy
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. **Relocate D3 SSD** from tsys4 USB to tsys5 SAS port:
|
||||
- Power down tsys4
|
||||
- Remove the SK hynix SC300 SSD from its USB enclosure on tsys4
|
||||
- Install it on a free SAS port on tsys5 (5 ports free on LSI SAS1068E)
|
||||
- On tsys5: mount as `/mnt/pfv-tsys5/D3`, add to `/etc/exports`
|
||||
- Update `/etc/pve/storage.cfg` cluster-wide: repoint D3 `server` from
|
||||
`pfv-tsys4-nfs-stor` to `pfv-tsys5-nfs-stor`, update `export` path
|
||||
- Copy any existing D3 data from tsys4 first (currently ~2 MB, essentially
|
||||
empty, so minimal migration)
|
||||
5. Install the **PCI NVMe drive** (uses a PCI slot, not a SATA/SAS port).
|
||||
6. Format NVMe as local directory storage (see TODO section 3 below).
|
||||
7. Reboot tsys5 to activate NFS nconnect.
|
||||
8. Run `validate-fixes.sh pfv-tsys5` to confirm.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. tsys5 NVMe format/mount decision (after Friday install)
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommendation: local-only, not NFS-exported.** Format as Proxmox directory
|
||||
storage so it shows up as a VM image target in the Proxmox UI.
|
||||
|
||||
After the NVMe is physically installed and visible in Proxmox:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Identify the device: `lsblk` or `ls /dev/nvme*`
|
||||
2. Format and add to Proxmox:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Option A: LVM-thin (thin provisioning, snapshots)
|
||||
pvcreate /dev/nvme0n1
|
||||
vgcreate nvme-pool /dev/nvme0n1
|
||||
lvcreate -l 100%FREE -T nvme-pool/data
|
||||
# Then in Proxmox UI: Datacenter > Storage > Add > LVM-Thin
|
||||
# ID: nvme-local
|
||||
# Volume Group: nvme-pool
|
||||
# Thin Pool: data
|
||||
# Content: Disk image, Container template
|
||||
|
||||
# Option B: Directory (simpler, no thin provisioning)
|
||||
mkfs.ext4 /dev/nvme0n1
|
||||
mkdir -p /mnt/nvme
|
||||
mount /dev/nvme0n1 /mnt/nvme
|
||||
# Add to /etc/fstab for persistence
|
||||
# Then in Proxmox UI: Datacenter > Storage > Add > Directory
|
||||
# ID: nvme-local
|
||||
# Directory: /mnt/nvme
|
||||
# Content: Disk image, Container template
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Use for wnode-tsys5 boot disk (highest impact) and sectestbed VM scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Post-hardware validation (run after Friday work)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Re-run iperf matrix: `./iperf-full-matrix.sh`
|
||||
2. Validate tsys4 and tsys5: `./validate-fixes.sh pfv-tsys4 && ./validate-fixes.sh pfv-tsys5`
|
||||
3. Update PROJECT.md with post-hardware iperf numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. UCS storage migration to spinning disk (do today)
|
||||
|
||||
UCS (Univention Corporate Server / open-source AD) does not need SSD. Both
|
||||
UCS VMs should stay on spinning disk (HDD) and be split across storage
|
||||
servers for redundancy.
|
||||
|
||||
| VM | Current | Target | Action |
|
||||
|----|---------|--------|--------|
|
||||
| ucs-01 (108) | D2 (tsys4 HDD) | **D2 (tsys4 HDD) -- no change** | Already correct |
|
||||
| ucs-02 (902) | D5 (tsys4 HDD) | **S2 (tsys5 HDD)** | Move for cross-server redundancy |
|
||||
|
||||
**To migrate ucs-02 to S2 (use PDM/Proxmox UI):**
|
||||
1. In Proxmox Datacenter or the node UI, select VM 902 on tsys9
|
||||
2. Use "Migrate" or "Storage Migrate" to move the disk from D5 to S2
|
||||
(both are NFS exports visible to tsys9, so this is a storage-only migration)
|
||||
3. Verify VM 902 boots and LDAP/AD services are healthy after migration
|
||||
|
||||
Note: both VMs are currently on tsys4 HDD, which is fine for UCS. Only
|
||||
ucs-02 needs to move -- it should be on a different storage server than
|
||||
ucs-01 so a tsys4 failure doesn't take down both halves of the AD pair.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Open questions for next session
|
||||
|
||||
- Are the hosts a Proxmox cluster (`pvecm status`) or standalone installs?
|
||||
Determines whether live migration is available.
|
||||
- What k8s distribution is in use? (k3s, kubeadm, RKE2?)
|
||||
- Container runtime? (containerd, cri-o?)
|
||||
- Is there a local container image registry mirror?
|
||||
- What specific ETL tools? (GDAL, PostGIS, xarray, Dask?)
|
||||
- HPC job scheduler? (plain k8s Jobs, Argo Workflows, Volcano?)
|
||||
- What uses tsys5's SDR + parallel port before planning tsys5 role changes?
|
||||
- tsys3 thermal state (laptop in rack for years) — check `sensors`.

||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This guide provides complete instructions for implementing and managing two-factor authentication (2FA) on TSYS servers using Google Authenticator (TOTP).
|
||||
|
||||
## What This Implementation Provides
|
||||
|
||||
### Services Protected by 2FA
|
||||
- **SSH Access:** Requires SSH key + 2FA token
|
||||
- **Cockpit Web Interface:** Requires password + 2FA token
|
||||
- **Webmin Administration:** Requires password + 2FA token (if installed)
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Features
|
||||
- **Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP):** Standard 6-digit codes
|
||||
- **Backup Codes:** Emergency access codes
|
||||
- **Gradual Rollout:** Optional nullok mode for phased deployment
|
||||
- **Configuration Backup:** Automatic backup of all configs
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Steps
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Run the 2FA Setup Script
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Navigate to the security modules directory
|
||||
cd ProjectCode/Modules/Security
|
||||
|
||||
# Run the 2FA setup script as root
|
||||
sudo bash secharden-2fa.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Validate Installation
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run 2FA validation tests
|
||||
./Project-Tests/security/2fa-validation.sh
|
||||
|
||||
# Run specific 2FA security test
|
||||
./Project-Tests/run-tests.sh security
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Setup Individual Users
|
||||
For each user that needs 2FA access:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check setup instructions
|
||||
cat /home/username/2fa-setup-instructions.txt
|
||||
|
||||
# Run user setup script
|
||||
sudo /tmp/setup-2fa-username.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 4: Test 2FA Access
|
||||
1. **Test SSH access** from another terminal
|
||||
2. **Test Cockpit access** via web browser
|
||||
3. **Test Webmin access** if installed
|
||||
|
||||
## User Setup Process
|
||||
|
||||
### Installing Authenticator Apps
|
||||
Users need one of these apps on their phone:
|
||||
- **Google Authenticator** (Android/iOS)
|
||||
- **Authy** (Android/iOS)
|
||||
- **Microsoft Authenticator** (Android/iOS)
|
||||
- **1Password** (with TOTP support)
|
||||
|
||||
### Setting Up 2FA for a User
|
||||
1. **Run setup script:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo /tmp/setup-2fa-username.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Follow prompts:**
|
||||
- Answer "y" to update time-based token
|
||||
- Scan QR code with authenticator app
|
||||
- Save emergency backup codes securely
|
||||
- Answer "y" to remaining security questions
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Test immediately:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Test SSH from another terminal
|
||||
ssh username@server-ip
|
||||
# You'll be prompted for 6-digit code
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration Details
|
||||
|
||||
### SSH Configuration Changes
|
||||
File: `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`
|
||||
```
|
||||
ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes
|
||||
UsePAM yes
|
||||
AuthenticationMethods publickey,keyboard-interactive
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### PAM Configuration
|
||||
File: `/etc/pam.d/sshd`
|
||||
```
|
||||
auth required pam_google_authenticator.so nullok
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Cockpit Configuration
|
||||
File: `/etc/cockpit/cockpit.conf`
|
||||
```
|
||||
[WebService]
|
||||
LoginTitle = TSYS Server Management
|
||||
LoginTo = 300
|
||||
RequireHost = true
|
||||
|
||||
[Session]
|
||||
Banner = /etc/cockpit/issue.cockpit
|
||||
IdleTimeout = 15
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Webmin Configuration
|
||||
File: `/etc/webmin/miniserv.conf`
|
||||
```
|
||||
twofactor_provider=totp
|
||||
twofactor=1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
### Gradual vs Strict Enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
#### Gradual Enforcement (Default)
|
||||
- Uses `nullok` option in PAM
|
||||
- Users without 2FA can still log in
|
||||
- Allows phased rollout
|
||||
- Good for initial deployment
|
||||
|
||||
#### Strict Enforcement
|
||||
- Remove `nullok` from PAM configuration
|
||||
- All users must have 2FA configured
|
||||
- Immediate security enforcement
|
||||
- Risk of lockout if misconfigured
|
||||
|
||||
### Backup and Recovery
|
||||
|
||||
#### Emergency Access
|
||||
- **Backup codes:** Generated during setup
|
||||
- **Root access:** Can disable 2FA if needed
|
||||
- **Console access:** Physical/virtual console bypasses SSH
|
||||
|
||||
#### Configuration Backup
|
||||
- Automatic backup to `/root/backup/2fa-TIMESTAMP/`
|
||||
- Includes all modified configuration files
|
||||
- Can be restored if needed
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Common Issues
|
||||
|
||||
#### 1. User Cannot Generate QR Code
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Ensure qrencode is installed
|
||||
sudo apt-get install qrencode
|
||||
|
||||
# Re-run user setup
|
||||
sudo /tmp/setup-2fa-username.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2. SSH Connection Fails
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check SSH service status
|
||||
sudo systemctl status sshd
|
||||
|
||||
# Test SSH configuration
|
||||
sudo sshd -t
|
||||
|
||||
# Check logs
|
||||
sudo journalctl -u sshd -f
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### 3. 2FA Code Not Accepted
|
||||
- **Check time synchronization** on server and phone
|
||||
- **Verify app setup** - rescan QR code if needed
|
||||
- **Try backup codes** if available
|
||||
|
||||
#### 4. Locked Out of Server
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Access via console (physical/virtual)
|
||||
# Disable 2FA temporarily
|
||||
sudo cp /root/backup/2fa-*/pam.d.bak/sshd /etc/pam.d/sshd
|
||||
sudo systemctl restart sshd
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Debug Commands
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check 2FA status
|
||||
./Project-Tests/security/2fa-validation.sh
|
||||
|
||||
# Check SSH configuration
|
||||
sudo sshd -T | grep -E "(Challenge|PAM|Authentication)"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check PAM configuration
|
||||
cat /etc/pam.d/sshd | grep google-authenticator
|
||||
|
||||
# Check user 2FA status
|
||||
ls -la ~/.google_authenticator
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Management and Maintenance
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding New Users
|
||||
1. Ensure user account exists
|
||||
2. Run setup script for new user
|
||||
3. Provide setup instructions
|
||||
4. Test access
|
||||
|
||||
### Removing User 2FA
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Remove user's 2FA configuration
|
||||
sudo rm /home/username/.google_authenticator
|
||||
|
||||
# User will need to re-setup 2FA
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Disabling 2FA System-Wide
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Restore original configurations
|
||||
sudo cp /root/backup/2fa-*/sshd_config.bak /etc/ssh/sshd_config
|
||||
sudo cp /root/backup/2fa-*/pam.d.bak/sshd /etc/pam.d/sshd
|
||||
sudo systemctl restart sshd
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Updating 2FA Configuration
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Re-run setup script
|
||||
sudo bash secharden-2fa.sh
|
||||
|
||||
# Validate changes
|
||||
./Project-Tests/security/2fa-validation.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### Deployment Strategy
|
||||
1. **Test in non-production** environment first
|
||||
2. **Enable gradual rollout** (nullok) initially
|
||||
3. **Train users** on 2FA setup process
|
||||
4. **Test emergency procedures** before strict enforcement
|
||||
5. **Monitor logs** for authentication issues
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Recommendations
|
||||
- **Enforce strict mode** after successful rollout
|
||||
- **Regular backup code rotation**
|
||||
- **Monitor failed authentication attempts**
|
||||
- **Document emergency procedures**
|
||||
- **Regular security audits**
|
||||
|
||||
### User Training
|
||||
- **Provide clear instructions**
|
||||
- **Demonstrate setup process**
|
||||
- **Explain backup code importance**
|
||||
- **Test login process with users**
|
||||
- **Establish support procedures**
|
||||
|
||||
## Monitoring and Logging
|
||||
|
||||
### Authentication Logs
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# SSH authentication logs
|
||||
sudo journalctl -u sshd | grep -i "authentication"
|
||||
|
||||
# PAM authentication logs
|
||||
sudo journalctl | grep -i "pam_google_authenticator"
|
||||
|
||||
# Failed login attempts
|
||||
sudo journalctl | grep -i "failed"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Monitoring
|
||||
- Monitor for repeated failed 2FA attempts
|
||||
- Alert on successful logins without 2FA (during gradual rollout)
|
||||
- Track user 2FA setup completion
|
||||
- Monitor for emergency access usage
|
||||
|
||||
## Integration with Existing Systems
|
||||
|
||||
### LDAP/Active Directory
|
||||
- 2FA works with existing authentication systems
|
||||
- Users still need local 2FA setup
|
||||
- Consider centralized 2FA solutions for large deployments
|
||||
|
||||
### Monitoring Systems
|
||||
- LibreNMS: Will continue to work with SNMP
|
||||
- Wazuh: Will log 2FA authentication events
|
||||
- Cockpit: Enhanced with 2FA protection
|
||||
|
||||
### Backup Systems
|
||||
- Ensure backup procedures account for 2FA
|
||||
- Test restore procedures with 2FA enabled
|
||||
- Document emergency access procedures
|
||||
|
||||
## Support and Resources
|
||||
|
||||
### Files Created by Setup

||||
- Configurable retry attempts for network operations
|
||||
- Exponential backoff for failed operations
|
||||
- Circuit breaker for repeatedly failing services
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔸 LOW (Quality of Life)
|
||||
|
||||
### TASK-010: Enhanced Logging
|
||||
**Modify:** `Framework-Includes/Logging.sh`
|
||||
**Add:**
|
||||
- Structured logging (JSON format option)
|
||||
- Log levels (DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR)
|
||||
- Remote logging capability
|
||||
- Log rotation management
|
||||
|
||||
### TASK-011: Progress Indicators
|
||||
**Add to:** `Framework-Includes/PrettyPrint.sh`
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
function show_progress() { } # Display progress bar
|
||||
function update_status() { } # Update current operation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### TASK-012: Dry Run Mode
|
||||
**Add to:** `ProjectCode/SetupNewSystem.sh`
|
||||
**Implementation:**
|
||||
- `--dry-run` flag support
|
||||
- Preview of changes without execution
|
||||
- Dependency analysis output
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Order for Claude
|
||||
|
||||
**Updated Priority After Security Fix (July 14, 2025):**
|
||||
1. **Start with TASK-001** (HTTPS enforcement - simple find/replace operations)
|
||||
2. **Create framework functions** (TASK-002, TASK-005, TASK-007)
|
||||
3. **Enhance existing modules** (TASK-004, TASK-006)
|
||||
4. **Add operational features** (TASK-008, TASK-009)
|
||||
5. **Improve user experience** (TASK-010, TASK-011, TASK-012)
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** Major deployment security risk resolved - remaining tasks focus on hardening internal operations.
|
||||
|
||||
## File Location Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- **Framework components:** `Framework-Includes/*.sh`
|
||||
- **Security modules:** `ProjectCode/Modules/Security/*.sh`
|
||||
- **Configuration files:** `ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/*/`
|
||||
- **Main entry point:** `ProjectCode/SetupNewSystem.sh`
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
For each task:
|
||||
1. Create backup of original files
|
||||
2. Implement changes incrementally
|
||||
3. Test with `bash -n` for syntax validation
|
||||
4. Verify functionality with controlled test runs
|
||||
5. Document changes made
|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
All new functions must:
|
||||
- Use `set -euo pipefail` compatibility
|
||||
- Integrate with existing error handling framework
|
||||
- Log errors to `$LOGFILENAME`
|
||||
- Return appropriate exit codes
|
||||
- Clean up temporary files on failure

# Tailscale vs. Managed DNS — Architecture Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
> **Status:** analysis for review. No code decisions are final. Read the
|
||||
> "Known issues" section before acting on the managed-resolv.conf change.
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Executive summary
|
||||
|
||||
Every host in this build runs the Tailscale client, and Tailscale — by default —
|
||||
**manages `/etc/resolv.conf` itself**, pointing it at `100.100.100.100`
|
||||
(Tailscale's MagicDNS resolver). This directly conflicts with the managed
|
||||
`resolv.conf` (pointing at `192.168.3.252`/`192.168.3.253`) that
|
||||
`SetupNewSystem.sh` deploys: whichever runs last wins, and Tailscale's daemon
|
||||
re-wins on every `tailscale up` and on reboot.
|
||||
|
||||
Worse, a probe of the live network shows that **knel.net device records only
|
||||
resolve through the Tailscale 100.100.100.100 path** — querying the LAN IPs of
|
||||
the DNS servers directly returns NXDOMAIN for current hostnames (the Technitium
|
||||
`knel.net` zone has the SOA but is stale/empty of actual records). So pointing
|
||||
`resolv.conf` at the LAN IPs would break resolution of the very names this
|
||||
project's modules depend on (`tsys-nsm.knel.net`, `tsys-cloudron.knel.net`,
|
||||
`tsys-librenms.knel.net`).
|
||||
|
||||
This document lays out the options and a recommended path forward.
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. How name resolution actually works today (as measured)
|
||||
|
||||
Probed from `sectestbed-sandbox` (192.168.3.50):
|
||||
|
||||
| Query path | External name (`github.com`) | knel.net device name (`pfv-netinfra-01.knel.net`) |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| Via current resolver = `100.100.100.100` (Tailscale) | resolves | **resolves** → `100.70.181.72` (Tailscale CGNAT) |
|
||||
| Direct `dig @192.168.3.252` (Technitium, LAN) | resolves (recurses) | **NXDOMAIN** (SOA present, no record) |
|
||||
| Direct `dig @192.168.3.253` (Pi-hole, LAN) | resolves (recurses) | **NXDOMAIN** (SOA present, no record) |
|
||||
|
||||
Other measured facts:
|
||||
|
||||
- `dig @192.168.3.252 knel.net SOA` → `NOERROR`, returns
|
||||
`knel.net. 900 IN SOA dns.knel.net. hostadmin.knel.net. 2025062313 …`
|
||||
(serial dated **2025-06-23** — the zone exists but is stale).
|
||||
- NTP on both `.252` and `.253` answers time queries (stratum 2/3).
|
||||
- The live `/etc/resolv.conf` on a deployed host reads:
|
||||
```
|
||||
# resolv.conf(5) file generated by tailscale
|
||||
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
|
||||
nameserver 100.100.100.100
|
||||
nameserver fd7a:115c:a1e0::53
|
||||
search knel.net
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Interpretation:** the `knel.net` device→Tailscale-IP mappings are synthesised
|
||||
by Tailscale's MagicDNS from the tailnet device registry (every device that
|
||||
joins the tailnet gets `hostname.knel.net` → its `100.x.x.x` address). The
|
||||
Technitium `knel.net` zone is a separate, manually-maintained zone that has
|
||||
fallen out of date. The two are not the same source of truth.
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. The core tension
|
||||
|
||||
| Goal | Who provides it today |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Resolve `*.knel.net` device names (→ Tailscale IPs) | Tailscale MagicDNS via `100.100.100.100` |
|
||||
| Resolve external names with ad-blocking | Pi-hole (`.253`), reachable via Tailscale → Technitium → Pi-hole chain |
|
||||
| Redundant, low-latency, tunnel-independent DNS | LAN resolvers `.252`/`.253` — **but these lack knel.net records** |
|
||||
| Authoritative time | NTP on `.252`/`.253` (works on either path) |
|
||||
|
||||
The conflict: you cannot simply point `resolv.conf` at the LAN resolvers,
|
||||
because they do not know about the current `knel.net` device records, and
|
||||
several modules in this project resolve `knel.net` hostnames at runtime
|
||||
(wazuh manager, postfix relay, syslog target). You also cannot ignore Tailscale,
|
||||
because it is the only thing that resolves those names today.
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Options
|
||||
|
||||
### Option A — Let Tailscale own DNS (status quo, `accept-dns=true`)
|
||||
|
||||
Leave the default. Tailscale writes `100.100.100.100` to `resolv.conf`; the
|
||||
control-plane forwarding (`100.100.100.100` → Technitium → Pi-hole) handles
|
||||
external names and ad-blocking; MagicDNS handles `knel.net` device names.
|
||||
|
||||
| Pros | Cons |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Zero per-host config; new machines "just work" on `tailscale up` | **All DNS depends on the Tailscale daemon being up.** If `tailscaled` dies, every name lookup fails — including the ones you need to SSH in and fix it. |
|
||||
| MagicDNS + knel.net names resolve automatically | Latency: every query goes host→tailscaled→100.100.100.100→(tunnel)→Technitium→Pi-hole→upstream |
|
||||
| Ad-blocking preserved (via the Pi-hole hop) | Overwrites the managed `resolv.conf` — the `.252`/`.253` redundancy is lost |
|
||||
| Centralised in the Tailscale admin console | Single resolver in `resolv.conf` (`100.100.100.100`); no glibc-level failover |
|
||||
| | Boot-order risk: early-boot processes have no DNS until `tailscaled` is up |
|
||||
|
||||
### Option B — Pin resolv.conf to the LAN resolvers (`accept-dns=false`)
|
||||
|
||||
Set `--accept-dns=false` on every host and keep the managed `resolv.conf`
|
||||
pointing at `.252`/`.253`.
|
||||
|
||||
| Pros | Cons |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| DNS independent of Tailscale — survives `tailscaled` outages | **`*.knel.net` device names break (NXDOMAIN)** because the LAN resolvers' knel.net zone is stale. This breaks wazuh/postfix/syslog hostname resolution. |
|
||||
| Lowest latency, full glibc-level failover across two servers | MagicDNS names (`*.ts.net`) do not resolve |
|
||||
| Managed `resolv.conf` wins uncontested | Requires fixing the Technitium/Pi-hole `knel.net` zone to mirror the Tailscale device records before this is viable |
|
||||
| Boot-time DNS works immediately | Off-LAN hosts (laptops) can't reach `.252`/`.253` without the tunnel — back to needing Tailscale |
|
||||
|
||||
> **Not recommended as-is.** Only viable **after** the `knel.net` zone on
|
||||
> `.252`/`.253` is repopulated with current device records (see §6).
|
||||
|
||||
### Option C — Tailscale Split DNS (per-domain routing)
|
||||
|
||||
MagicDNS `ON`, "Override local DNS" `OFF` in the admin console; only `ts.net`
|
||||
(and explicitly split domains) route to `100.100.100.100`, everything else stays
|
||||
on the system resolver.
|
||||
|
||||
| Pros | Cons |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Best of both worlds: MagicDNS names resolve AND general queries go direct | Requires `systemd-resolved` (or NetworkManager `dns=dnsmasq`) for per-domain routing. These hosts use a **plain `/etc/resolv.conf`** — on which Tailscale **cannot** do per-domain split; it replaces the whole file. |
|
||||
| Reduces tunnel dependency for non-Tailscale names | Migrating every host to `systemd-resolved` is a significant, cross-cutting change |
|
||||
| | More moving parts to reason about and debug |
|
||||
|
||||
### Option D — Make Tailscale push the LAN resolvers as global nameservers
|
||||
|
||||
In the admin console, set global nameservers to `192.168.3.252`/`192.168.3.253`,
|
||||
keep `accept-dns=true`.
|
||||
|
||||
| Pros | Cons |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Clients get the LAN resolvers via Tailscale config (consistent) | Tailscale still overwrites `resolv.conf` |
|
||||
| MagicDNS still works (100.100.100.100 added for `ts.net`/`knel.net`) | On-LAN hosts don't need Tailscale to find `.252`/`.253` — pure indirection |
|
||||
| Centralised management | Still depends on `tailscaled` for DNS |
|
||||
| | `knel.net` device names still only resolve via the Tailscale path, so the LAN resolvers being "global" doesn't help those names unless the zone is fixed |
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Recommendation
|
||||
|
||||
**Short term (unblock now): Option A — let Tailscale own DNS.** Revert/disable
|
||||
the managed-`resolv.conf` deployment so provisioning stops fighting Tailscale.
|
||||
Today, `knel.net` device names **only** resolve through Tailscale, and this
|
||||
project's modules depend on those names, so Tailscale-managed DNS is the only
|
||||
thing that currently works end-to-end. Keep the NTP change (LAN IPs, no DNS
|
||||
dependency) — that part is safe and beneficial regardless.
|
||||
|
||||
**Medium term (the real fix): populate the `knel.net` zone on the LAN
|
||||
resolvers**, then choose B or C. Concretely:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make Technitium (`.252`) authoritative for `knel.net` **with current records**
|
||||
(mirror the Tailscale device→IP mappings, or enable a zone-transfer/sync from
|
||||
the Tailscale device registry, or use Technitium's "Tailscale" DNS app if
|
||||
available). Confirm `dig @192.168.3.252 pfv-netinfra-01.knel.net` returns an
|
||||
answer, not NXDOMAIN.
|
||||
2. Make Pi-hole (`.253`) forward `knel.net` to Technitium (or also serve the
|
||||
zone), so both resolvers in the pair can answer internal names — otherwise
|
||||
glibc failover to `.253` would silently break knel.net lookups.
|
||||
3. *Then* pin `resolv.conf` to `.252`/`.253` with `--accept-dns=false`
|
||||
(Option B), gaining tunnel-independent, redundant DNS.
|
||||
|
||||
**Long term (optional, if per-domain routing is wanted): Option C** — adopt
|
||||
`systemd-resolved` and configure Tailscale Split DNS so `ts.net`/`knel.net` go
|
||||
to MagicDNS and everything else goes direct. Only worth the migration cost if
|
||||
you specifically need `*.ts.net` short-name resolution alongside direct LAN DNS.
|
||||
|
||||
### Why not just force `.252`/`.253` today?
|
||||
|
||||
Because it regresses name resolution for the hostnames this project already
|
||||
uses. Concretely, with `resolv.conf` pinned to the LAN resolvers the following
|
||||
would fail to resolve:
|
||||
|
||||
- `ProjectCode/Modules/Security/secharden-wazuh.sh` → `WAZUH_MANAGER="tsys-nsm.knel.net"`
|
||||
- `ProjectCode/SetupNewSystem.sh` → `postconf -e "relayhost = tsys-cloudron.knel.net"`
|
||||
- `ProjectCode/ConfigFiles/Syslog/rsyslog.conf` → `*.* @tsys-librenms.knel.net:514`
|
||||
|
||||
All three resolve cleanly via `100.100.100.100` today and return NXDOMAIN via
|
||||
`.252`/`.253`. Pinning the LAN resolvers before the zone is fixed would break
|
||||
wazuh, mail relay, and syslog.
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Known issues / action items
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Technitium `knel.net` zone is stale.** SOA serial `2025062313`
|
||||
(2025-06-23); current device names return NXDOMAIN from the LAN interface.
|
||||
Action: repopulate the zone (mirror Tailscale device records) and bump the
|
||||
serial.
|
||||
2. **Pi-hole (`.253`) has no `knel.net` device records either.** For the pair
|
||||
to be truly redundant for internal names, `.253` must either serve the same
|
||||
zone or conditional-forward `knel.net` to `.252`. Action: configure Pi-hole
|
||||
to forward `knel.net` to Technitium.
|
||||
3. **The managed-`resolv.conf` change (commit f010fa9) conflicts with
|
||||
Tailscale.** As written, `SetupNewSystem.sh` writes `resolv.conf` with
|
||||
`.252`/`.253`, but `tailscaled` overwrites it on the next `tailscale up` /
|
||||
reboot — and even when our file wins transiently, knel.net names break. See
|
||||
§5 for the recommended handling.
|
||||
4. **NTP change is safe and good.** `ntp.conf` now uses LAN IPs
|
||||
(`192.168.3.252`/`192.168.3.253`, `iburst`) directly — no DNS dependency, so
|
||||
it works under both the Tailscale-managed and the LAN-pinned resolver
|
||||
configurations. Keep this regardless of the DNS decision.
|
||||
5. **Split-horizon possibility (unconfirmed).** It is possible Technitium serves
|
||||
a richer `knel.net` zone on its Tailscale interface (`100.x`) than on its LAN
|
||||
interface (`192.168.3.252`). If so, the fix is to make the LAN view match the
|
||||
Tailscale view. Worth confirming with `dig @<technitium-tailscale-ip> knel.net host`.
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. Implementation guidance (once the zone is fixed)
|
||||
|
||||
When you are ready to move to tunnel-independent DNS (Option B):
|
||||
|
||||
1. In provisioning, after `tailscale up`, set `--accept-dns=false`:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
tailscale up --accept-dns=false …
|
||||
```
|
||||
Or bake it into the tailscale systemd unit via a drop-in so re-boots hold.
|
||||
2. *Then* deploy the managed `resolv.conf` (`.252`/`.253`). Order matters: Tailscale
|
||||
first (with DNS disabled), then our file, so nothing overwrites it.
|
||||
3. Add a watchdog (timer) that restores `resolv.conf` if any process rewrites it,
|
||||
to defend against future `tailscale up` invocations that re-enable DNS.
|
||||
4. Validate with `Project-Tests/validation/dns-ntp-redundancy.sh` — and extend
|
||||
its probe to assert `*.knel.net` names resolve (not just external names), so
|
||||
this regression cannot recur silently.
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. TL;DR
|
||||
|
||||
- **DNS**: don't fight Tailscale yet. Today `knel.net` names only resolve via
|
||||
Tailscale, and this project depends on them. Fix the Technitium/Pi-hole
|
||||
`knel.net` zone first, *then* pin the LAN resolvers.
|
||||
- **NTP**: the LAN-IP change is correct and safe; keep it.
|
||||
- **The managed `resolv.conf` (`.252`/`.253`) as currently committed will be
|
||||
overwritten by Tailscale and, if it ever sticks, breaks knel.net resolution —
|
||||
see §5/§6 before relying on it.**
