## Current State: STABLE

The merged PFVCluster repo is fully operational across provisioning, DNS
infrastructure, and Proxmox cluster ops.

## Completed Work

### Server Provisioning (validated on sectestbed-sandbox)
- [x] SetupNewSystem.sh deploys end-to-end to rc=0 (Debian 13 trixie)
- [x] Security hardening: SSH, SCAP-STIG, Wazuh, 2FA (SSH+Cockpit+Webmin)
- [x] NTP: redundant pfv-netinfra-01/02 (192.168.3.252/253), synced stratum 3
- [x] DNS resolv.conf: managed static file pointing at netinfra pair
- [x] Test suite: 5 tests (framework, safe-download, 2fa, https, system-req)
- [x] VM validation harness: git-based deploy + auto-rollback + guest-agent access

### DNS Cluster (pfv-netinfra-01/02)
- [x] Production Technitium config replicated from tailscale-router (read-only)
- [x] 124 zones on both nodes (knel.net + reverse DNS)
- [x] pfv-netinfra-01 = PRIMARY, pfv-netinfra-02 = SECONDARY
- [x] Zone replication via rsync systemd timer (every 60s)
- [x] Credentials + 2FA replicated identically to production
- [x] Both LAN IPs resolve knel.net device names + recurse externally

### Proxmox Cluster Ops
- [x] 5 of 7 hosts fully performance-tuned (tsys1/3/6/7/9)
- [x] Fleet audit complete (PROJECT.md has ground truth)
- [ ] tsys4: blocked on PCIe NIC + RAM install
- [ ] tsys5: blocked on 2nd ethernet cable + NVMe install
- [ ] tsys2: pending rebuild from Win10 to Proxmox

### Kubernetes Architecture (docs authored, pending implementation)
- [x] `docs/k8s/` created: README, DISTRO-DECISION, ARCHITECTURE
- [x] Distro decision: **Talos Linux** (over k3s), driven by ITAR/classified
  requirement. Immutable + API-only + measured-boot = structurally stronger
  compliance posture than SCAP-hardened Debian.
- [x] Target arch documented: 3 cnodes (local-lvm boot), Cilium CNI, vcluster
  per tenant, Harbor pull-through cache on D3 SSD, OIDC→Keycloak (Cloudron),
  Tailscale subnet-router for admin (cluster nodes LAN-only, zero egress).
- [ ] 3 decisions pending user confirm (see Pending below)

### Repo Merge
- [x] KNELServerBuild merged into PFVCluster (history preserved)
- [x] Directory structure reorganized (provisioning/, tests/, perf/, docs/)
- [x] All docs gardened: links fixed, stale refs removed, tailscale.md updated

## Known Issues

| Issue | Impact | Status |
|-------|--------|--------|
| Technitium AXFR uses port 53 (occupied by Pi-hole) | Zone transfer via rsync instead of native AXFR | Workaround in place |
| `download.proxmox.com` unreachable from sandbox VM | 2 validation tests warn (environmental) | Not a code issue |
| tsys4/5 hardware pending | Perf tuning incomplete on 2 hosts | Waiting on physical install |

## Pending (next session priorities)

1. **k8s: confirm 3 decisions** before bootstrap:
   - Cnode count: 3 (recommended) vs 5
   - Cnode host spread: tsys9 + tsys1 + tsys3 (recommended, 3-host, local-lvm)
   - Tailscale pattern: subnet router on `tailscale-router` (recommended)
2. Provisioning: add `tailscale up --accept-dns=false` after resolv.conf deploy
3. DNS: verify Pi-hole forwards knel.net to local Technitium on both nodes
4. Perf: complete tsys4/5 tuning after hardware install (Friday)
5. tsys2: rebuild from Win10 to Proxmox (k8s-dedicated host)
6. **k8s deferred topics** (tracked for future sessions): ETL tooling
   (GDAL/PostGIS/xarray/Dask → RWX vs RWO), HPC scheduler (Argo/Volcano),
   per-tenant vcluster policy templates, solar-aware scale-out

## Infrastructure Summary

| Component | Details |
|-----------|---------|
| Proxmox hosts | 7 standalone PVE, managed via PDM |
| DNS primary | pfv-netinfra-01 (192.168.3.252) — Technitium + Pi-hole |
| DNS secondary | pfv-netinfra-02 (192.168.3.253) — Technitium + Pi-hole |
| DNS production | tailscale-router (read-only source of truth) |
| NTP | pfv-netinfra-01/02 (redundant, LAN IPs, stratum 2/3) |
| Sandbox VM | sectestbed-sandbox (VMID 6000 on pfv-tsys5) |
| Backup | Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) |
| Production | Cloudron VPS, Reston VA (this cluster is R&D only) |
