docs(audit): revised fleet audit with corrected placements + Friday plan

Browse Source 
User has fixed the HA pair storage redundancy issue:
- netinfra-01 moved to S2 (tsys5), netinfra-02 stays on D2 (tsys4)
- ucs-02 moved to S2 (tsys5), ucs-01 stays on D2 (tsys4)
Both pairs now survive any single storage server failure. Marked as
FIXED in Known Issues.

Revised audit includes:
- Corrected VM placements from fresh qm config data
- Host capacity analysis: tsys1 (118% RAM), tsys5 (135% RAM), tsys9
  (131% RAM) are overcommitted; tsys6 (38%) and tsys7 (30%) have room
- Wnode storage rebalancing plan: move wnode-tsys6 → S4, wnode-tsys7 →
  S1, giving every wnode its own physical disk
- Friday maintenance plan: tsys2 Proxmox install as primary deliverable,
  VM migrations to relieve overloaded hosts, USB-passthrough VMs relocate
  from tsys1 to tsys9
- Cnode quorum: documented as fundamental constraint (3 cnodes, 2 NFS
  servers), accepted for now, revisit post-Friday when local-SSD boot
  becomes available

# Fresh Fleet Audit — 2026-07-28
# Fresh Fleet Audit — 2026-07-28 (revised)
> **Supersedes placement data in [`PROJECT.md`](PROJECT.md) §4-§8.**
> The tables in PROJECT.md reflect the 2026-07-27 audit; VMs have since been
> migrated via PDM. This file is the current ground truth.
**Audit time:** 2026-07-28 19:55 CDT
**Method:** `qm list` + `qm config` on all 7 reachable hosts
**Audit time:** 2026-07-28 20:30 CDT
**Hosts audited:** pfv-tsys1, pfv-tsys3, pfv-tsys4, pfv-tsys5, pfv-tsys6, pfv-tsys7, pfv-tsys9
**Hosts offline:** pfv-tsys2 (Win10, pending rebuild), pfv-tsys8 (offline 5+ days)

Both infrastructure pairs now split across storage servers:
**Changes since last audit:**
- tsys4 RAM still 15 GB (Friday 64 GB upgrade pending)
- tsys5 RAM is 94 GB (was documented as 96 GB)
- tsys6 RAM is 127 GB (was documented as 128 GB)
- tsys7 RAM is 191 GB (was documented as 192 GB)
| VM | VMID | Host | Disk | Server | tsys4 dies | tsys5 dies |
|----|------|------|------|--------|-----------|-----------|
| netinfra-01 | 103 | tsys1 | S2 | tsys5 | alive | dies |
| netinfra-02 | 904 | tsys9 | D2 | tsys4 | dies | alive |
| ucs-01 | 108 | tsys1 | D2 | tsys4 | dies | alive |
| ucs-02 | 902 | tsys9 | S2 | tsys5 | alive | dies |
**Any single storage server failure leaves one half of each pair alive.**

## 2. VM Fleet Inventory (Running VMs Only)
## 2. Active k3s Cnodes — fundamental constraint (3 nodes, 2 NFS servers)
### tsys1 — 11 running VMs (Infrastructure)
| Cnode | VMID | Host | Disk | Server |
|-------|------|------|------|--------|
| cnode1 | 906 | tsys9 | S3 | **tsys5** |
| cnode2 | 705 | tsys7 | D2 | **tsys4** |
| cnode3 | 106 | tsys1 | D5 | **tsys4** |
| VMID | Name | Cores×Sockets | RAM (MB) | Disk | Storage | NFS Server |
|------|------|--------------|----------|------|---------|-----------|
| 100 | pfv-bms (HomeAssistant) | 2×1 | 4096 | 32 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| 101 | tsys-ca | 2×1 | 2048 | 32 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| 103 | **pfv-netinfra-01** | 2×1 | 2048 | 32 GB | D5 | tsys4 |
| 104 | tsys-librenms | 2×1 | 2048 | 50 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| 105 | tsys-proxmox-datacenter | 2×1 | 2048 | 32 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| 106 | **pfv-k8s-cnode3** | 2×1 | 4096 | 32 GB | **S3** | **tsys5** |
| 108 | **tsys-ucs-01** | 2×2 | 8000 | 32 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| 109 | tailscale-router | 2×1 | 2048 | 25 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| 114 | kali-tsys | 2×1 | 2048 | 32 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| 117 | tsys-secure-workbench | 2×1 | 4000 | 32 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| 102 | pfv-k8s-wnode-tsys1 | 4×1 | 4096 | 32 GB | S2 | tsys5 — **STOPPED** |
**tsys4 failure:** cnode2 + cnode3 die → 1 of 3 → **quorum lost.**
**tsys5 failure:** cnode1 dies → 2 of 3 → quorum OK.
### tsys3 — 1 running VM (Kubernetes)
This is a structural constraint: 3 cnodes on 2 NFS servers means one side
holds 2. The only true fixes are:
- A 3rd storage target (not available until Friday hardware work)
- Local-lvm on a cnode's host (deferred to Friday — user wants NFS-only for now)
- Accept the risk (tsys4 reliability improves after Friday PCIe NIC + 64 GB RAM)
| VMID | Name | Cores×Sockets | RAM (MB) | Disk | Storage | NFS Server |
|------|------|--------------|----------|------|---------|-----------|
| 313 | **pfv-k8s-wnode-tsys3** | 8×1 | 28000 | 32 GB | D5 | tsys4 |
**Decision: accept for now. Revisit after Friday when local-SSD boot disks
become an option for cnodes.**
### tsys4 — 1 running VM (Storage)
---
| VMID | Name | Cores×Sockets | RAM (MB) | Disk | Storage | NFS Server |
|------|------|--------------|----------|------|---------|-----------|
| 400 | pfv-proxmox-backup-server | 2×1 | 2048 | 32 GB | local-lvm | LOCAL |
## 3. Worker Nodes — NEEDS REBALANCING (2 storage migrations)
### tsys5 — 16 running VMs (Storage + Preprod)
### Current state (problem: 3 wnodes share one physical disk)
| VMID | Name | Cores×Sockets | RAM (MB) | Disk | Storage | NFS Server |
|------|------|--------------|----------|------|---------|-----------|
| 509 | **pfv-k8s-wnode-tsys5** | 2×4 | 32000 | 32 GB | D2 | tsys4 |
| Wnode | VMID | Host | Disk | Server | Disk shared with |
|-------|------|------|------|--------|-----------------|
| wnode-tsys1 | 102 | tsys1 | S3 | tsys5 | — |
| wnode-tsys3 | 313 | tsys3 | **D5** | tsys4 | wnode-tsys6, wnode-tsys7 |
| wnode-tsys5 | 509 | tsys5 | D2 | tsys4 | — |
| wnode-tsys6 | 100 | tsys6 | **D5** | tsys4 | wnode-tsys3, wnode-tsys7 |
| wnode-tsys7 | 701 | tsys7 | **D5** | tsys4 | wnode-tsys3, wnode-tsys6 |
| wnode-tsys9 | 905 | tsys9 | S2 | tsys5 | — |
**D5 (Hitachi 2TB HDD) has 3 wnodes contending for IOPS.**
**S1 and S4 on tsys5 are completely empty (916 GB + 499 GB free).**
### Recommended moves (2 PDM storage migrations)
| Wnode | Disk from | Disk to | Effect |
|-------|-----------|---------|--------|
| wnode-tsys6 (100) | D5 (tsys4) | **S4** (tsys5, 499 GB free) | D5: 3→2 wnodes |
| wnode-tsys7 (701) | D5 (tsys4) | **S1** (tsys5, 916 GB free) | D5: 2→1 wnode |
### After rebalancing — every wnode on its own physical disk
| Wnode | Host | Disk | Server |
|-------|------|------|--------|
| wnode-tsys1 | tsys1 | S3 | tsys5 |
| wnode-tsys3 | tsys3 | D5 | tsys4 |
| wnode-tsys5 | tsys5 | D2 | tsys4 |
| wnode-tsys6 | tsys6 | **S4** | **tsys5** |
| wnode-tsys7 | tsys7 | **S1** | **tsys5** |
| wnode-tsys9 | tsys9 | S2 | tsys5 |
**tsys4: 2 wnodes. tsys5: 4 wnodes. Zero IOPS contention — each wnode
has a dedicated physical spindle.**

## 4. Host Capacity
| Host | RAM | VM RAM | RAM% | Threads | vCPU | CPU% | Notes |
|------|-----|--------|------|---------|------|------|-------|
| tsys1 | 31 GB | 36.6 GB | **118%** | 8 | 24 | 300% | Overcommitted. USB-passthrough VMs locked (bms, ca). |
| tsys3 | 31 GB | 28 GB | 90% | 8 | 8 | 100% | 1 wnode (28 GB). OK. |
| tsys4 | 15 GB | 2 GB | 13% | 8 | 2 | 25% | Storage server. Friday: →64 GB. |
| tsys5 | 94 GB | 127 GB | **135%** | 8 | 72 | 900% | Overcommitted by 33 GB. SDR dongles locked. Most VMs on local-nonprod (can't migrate). |
| tsys6 | 125 GB | 48 GB | **38%** | 16 | 12 | 75% | **77 GB free.** Room for more. |
| tsys7 | 188 GB | 56 GB | **30%** | 24 | 22 | 92% | **132 GB free.** Most room in fleet. |
| tsys9 | 23 GB | 30.2 GB | **131%** | 12 | 16 | 133% | Overcommitted by 7 GB. |
### Hardware dependencies (locked VMs)
| Host | VM | Hardware | Can move? |
|------|-----|----------|-----------|
| tsys1 | pfv-bms (100) | Zigbee + Z-Wave USB dongles | Friday only (physical move) |
| tsys1 | tsys-ca (101) | Nitrokey HSM (2×) | Friday only (physical move) |
| tsys5 | (various) | SDR dongles | **No — do not move** |

## 5. Friday Maintenance Plan
### 5.1 Primary goal: Proxmox on tsys2
tsys2 is currently Windows 10. It has the **best local storage in the fleet**
(Samsung 960 PRO NVMe 512 GB + Samsung 850 EVO SATA SSD 1 TB). The primary
Friday deliverable is:
1. **Move DHCP off pfv-netboot** to the netinfra-01/02 redundant pair. This
must happen BEFORE tsys2 is formatted (pfv-netboot runs on tsys2 hardware
currently, or depends on a service that does).
2. **Format tsys2**, install Proxmox.
3. **Agent inventory** — once Proxmox is live, the audit scripts
(`perf/deploy-check.sh`) can gather hardware and VM data directly,
replacing the Windows PowerShell inventory from
[`TODO.md`](TODO.md) §1.
4. **Run provisioning** — `provisioning/SetupNewSystem.sh` for baseline
hardening, then `perf/scripts/apply-tunings.sh`.
5. **Create wnode-tsys2** — boot disk on NVMe (960 PRO), data disk on SATA
SSD (850 EVO). No NFS needed — 1.5 TB local SSD is the most local storage
of any worker.
6. **Join wnode-tsys2 to k3s cluster.**
tsys2 hardware (from [`TODO.md`](TODO.md) Windows inventory):
- Dell Precision 5520, i7-7820HQ Kaby Lake (4c/8t)
- 32 GB RAM
- Samsung 960 PRO 512 GB NVMe + Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB SATA SSD
- Both wired NICs are USB-attached (same anti-pattern as tsys4/9)
- NVIDIA Quadro M1200 4 GB (passthrough candidate)
- Service tag: GH1XZG2
### 5.2 Physical hardware work (tsys4, tsys5)
| Host | Work |
|------|------|
| tsys4 | PCIe NIC install (replace USB dongle), RAM 16→64 GB |
| tsys5 | 2nd ethernet cable (fix bond0), NVMe install, D3 SSD relocate from tsys4 USB |
### 5.3 VM migrations (while cluster is down for hardware)
**Relieve overloaded hosts — move NFS-backed VMs to tsys6/tsys7:**
| VM | VMID | From | To | RAM freed | Storage stays |
|----|------|------|----|-----------|---------------|
| tsys-siem | 901 | tsys9 (131%) | tsys6 (38%) | 8 GB on tsys9 | D2 (tsys4) |
| tsys-librenms | 104 | tsys1 (118%) | tsys7 (30%) | 2 GB on tsys1 | D2 (tsys4) |
| tsys-pdm | 105 | tsys1 | tsys7 | 2 GB | D2 (tsys4) |
| tsys-workbench | 117 | tsys1 | tsys7 | 4 GB | D2 (tsys4) |
| tailscale-router | 109 | tsys1 | tsys7 | 2 GB | D2 (tsys4) |
| kali-tsys | 114 | tsys1 | tsys7 | 2 GB | D2 (tsys4) |
**Result:** tsys1 drops from 36.6 GB → 24.6 GB (79%). tsys9 drops from
30.2 GB → 22.2 GB (96%). tsys6/tsys7 absorb easily.
**Move USB-passthrough VMs from tsys1 to tsys9 (physical USB relocation):**
| VM | VMID | From | To | Hardware |
|----|------|------|----|---------|
| pfv-bms | 100 | tsys1 | tsys9 | Zigbee + Z-Wave dongles (physically move) |
| tsys-ca | 101 | tsys1 | tsys9 | Nitrokey HSMs (physically move) |
**Result:** tsys1 becomes a lightweight k8s-control host (cnode3 + netinfra-01 + ucs-01 only).
**Wnode storage rebalancing:**
| VM | VMID | Disk from | Disk to |
|----|------|-----------|---------|
| wnode-tsys6 | 100 | D5 (tsys4) | S4 (tsys5) |
| wnode-tsys7 | 701 | D5 (tsys4) | S1 (tsys5) |
### 5.4 Post-hardware cnode quorum fix (optional, if local-SSD available)
After Friday hardware work, consider moving one cnode to local-lvm:
- cnode3 (106) on tsys1: local-lvm is HDD (~90 GB) — viable, no NFS dependency
- cnode1 (906) on tsys9: local-lvm is SSD (136 GB) — ideal for etcd
This would give: 1 cnode on local-SSD, 1 on tsys4 NFS, 1 on tsys5 NFS.
**Any single failure (host, storage server, or disk) leaves 2 of 3 alive.**
Deferred — user wants NFS-only for now.

## 3. Kubernetes Node Placement
### 3.1 Active k3s cluster (cnode1/2/3 — deployed this session)
| Cnode | VMID | Host | Disk | NFS Server | Quorum risk |
|-------|------|------|------|-----------|-------------|
| cnode1 | **906** | tsys9 | D5 | **tsys4** | **HIGH** |
| cnode2 | **705** | tsys7 | D2 | **tsys4** | **HIGH** |
| cnode3 | 106 | tsys1 | S3 | tsys5 | OK |
**CRITICAL: 2 of 3 active cnodes on tsys4.** tsys4 failure = cnode1 + cnode2 die = 1 of 3 = **QUORUM LOST**.
**Fix needed:** Move cnode1 or cnode2 to tsys5 storage (S2 or S3). One migration via PDM "Storage Migrate" solves this.
### 3.2 Inactive cnodes (cnode4/5 — exist but not in k3s cluster)
| Cnode | VMID | Host | Disk | NFS Server |
|-------|------|------|------|-----------|
| cnode4 | 601 | tsys6 | D2 | tsys4 |
| cnode5 | 706 | tsys7 | S2 | tsys5 |
### 3.3 Worker nodes (wnodes)
| Wnode | VMID | Host | Disk | NFS Server | RAM | Status |
|-------|------|------|------|-----------|-----|--------|
| wnode-tsys1 | 102 | tsys1 | S2 | tsys5 | 4 GB | STOPPED |
| wnode-tsys3 | 313 | tsys3 | D5 | tsys4 | 28 GB | Running |
| wnode-tsys5 | 509 | tsys5 | D2 | tsys4 | 32 GB | Running |
| wnode-tsys6 | 100 | tsys6 | D5 | tsys4 | 32 GB | Running |
| wnode-tsys7 | 701 | tsys7 | D5 | tsys4 | 32 GB | Running |
| wnode-tsys9 | 905 | tsys9 | S2 | tsys5 | 4 GB | Running |
**Storage: 4 wnodes on tsys4, 2 on tsys5.** One wnode per host achieved.

## 4. Critical HA Pairs — Storage Redundancy
### 4.1 netinfra pair — FAILED (both on tsys4)
| Role | VMID | Host | Disk | NFS Server |
|------|------|------|------|-----------|
| netinfra-01 | 103 | tsys1 | D5 | **tsys4** |
| netinfra-02 | 904 | tsys9 | D2 | **tsys4** |
**tsys4 failure = DNS/DHCP/NTP goes fully dark.**
**Fix:** Migrate netinfra-02 (VMID 904) from D2 (tsys4) to S3 (tsys5) via PDM.
### 4.2 UCS pair — FAILED (both on tsys4)
| Role | VMID | Host | Disk | NFS Server |
|------|------|------|------|-----------|
| ucs-01 | 108 | tsys1 | D2 | **tsys4** |
| ucs-02 | 902 | tsys9 | D5 | **tsys4** |
**tsys4 failure = LDAP/AD goes fully dark.**
**Fix:** Migrate ucs-02 (VMID 902) from D5 (tsys4) to S2 (tsys5) via PDM.
### 4.3 Corrected placement (after migration)
| VM | Host | Disk | NFS Server | Failure survival |
|----|------|------|-----------|-----------------|
| netinfra-01 | tsys1 | D5 | tsys4 | tsys4 dies → netinfra-02 alive on tsys5 |
| netinfra-02 | tsys9 | **S3** | **tsys5** | tsys5 dies → netinfra-01 alive on tsys4 |
| ucs-01 | tsys1 | D2 | tsys4 | tsys4 dies → ucs-02 alive on tsys5 |
| ucs-02 | tsys9 | **S2** | **tsys5** | tsys5 dies → ucs-01 alive on tsys4 |

## 5. Storage Concentration
| Storage target | # running VMs | % of fleet |
|---------------|--------------|------------|
| D2 (tsys4 WDC Red 3TB HDD) | 16 | 36% |
| D5 (tsys4 Hitachi 2TB HDD) | 10 | 23% |
| local-nonprod (tsys5 local HDD) | 12 | 27% |
| S2 (tsys5 Seagate 1TB HDD) | 3 | 7% |
| S3 (tsys5 Seagate 1TB HDD) | 1 | 2% |
| T5-SSD (tsys5 Samsung SSD) | 1 | 2% |
| local-lvm (various hosts) | 2 | 5% |
**26 of 44 running VMs (59%) store their disks on tsys4 NFS exports.**
(Was 68% in the previous audit — improving but still concentrated.)

## 6. Pre-k8s Buildout Action Items
These must be done before or during k8s worker node bringup:
### 6.1 CRITICAL: Migrate HA pairs to separate storage (PDM, 10 min)
1. `netinfra-02` (VMID 904): D2 → S3 (tsys4 → tsys5)
2. `ucs-02` (VMID 902): D5 → S2 (tsys4 → tsys5)
These are PDM "Storage Migrate" operations — no VM rebuild needed.
### 6.2 CRITICAL: Fix active cnode quorum (PDM, 5 min)
Move one active cnode from tsys4 to tsys5 storage:
- Best candidate: cnode1 (VMID 906) D5 → S2 (tsys4 → tsys5)
- Result: cnode1 on tsys5, cnode2 on tsys4, cnode3 on tsys5
- tsys4 failure = cnode2 dies only = 2 of 3 = **quorum OK**
### 6.3 Join workers to k3s cluster
Current wnodes exist as VMs but are not joined to the k3s cluster. Need to:
1. Install k3s agent on each wnode (using join token from cnode1)
2. Configure `--node-ip=<tailscale-ip>` on each
3. Label/taint per workload role
### 6.4 Friday hardware work (still pending)
- tsys4: PCIe NIC + 64 GB RAM (currently 15 GB)
- tsys5: 2nd ethernet cable + NVMe + D3 SSD relocation
- tsys2: Rebuild from Win10 to Proxmox
