mrcharles cb633cd677 docs(audit): revised fleet audit with corrected placements + Friday plan
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

## Current State: STABLE
The merged PFVCluster repo is fully operational across provisioning, DNS
infrastructure, Proxmox cluster ops, and k8s control plane.
## 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 Control Plane (k3s HA — LIVE)
- [x] 3-node k3s HA control plane deployed: cnode1/2/3 (v1.36.2+k3s1, embedded etcd)
- [x] **All traffic over Tailscale IPs** — no LAN IPs in node status or certs
- [x] All 3 cnodes tainted `control-plane:NoSchedule` (zero user workloads)
- [x] 13/13 health checks pass (verify.sh): nodes Ready, etcd quorum,
Tailscale IPs, CoreDNS, API server, workload isolation
- [x] Scripts in `k8s/`: wipe, install-cp, join-servers, post-setup, verify
- [x] Kubeconfig saved to `~/.kube/config.pfv-k8s` (gitignored, embedded certs)
- [ ] Workers (wnodes) not yet joined to this cluster
- [ ] Distro decision: **k3s chosen for regular R&D cluster**. Talos docs
preserved in `docs/k8s/` for future ITAR/classified cluster.
### PDU Management (powerman on pfv-tsys1 — LIVE)
- [x] Cyclades AlterPath PM10i (10 outlets) managed via powerman over serial
- [x] USB-DB9 adapter (Prolific pl2303) with stable udev symlink
`/dev/cyclades-pm10`
- [x] powermand listening on `127.0.0.1:10101` + Tailscale `100.121.189.98:10101`
- [x] All 10 outlets defined as `outlet-1` through `outlet-10`
- [x] Validated: outlet 10 cycled off → on (8/8 test checks passed)
- [ ] Rename outlets to match physical devices (Friday onsite)
### Console Management (ser2net + conman on pfv-tsys4 — LIVE)
- [x] 7 network switch/router consoles managed via ser2net + conman
- [x] **USB enumeration problem SOLVED:** udev rules pin each adapter by
ID_PATH (physical USB port topology) to stable `/dev/consoles/<name>`
symlinks that survive reboot regardless of enumeration order
- [x] ser2net exposes all 7 consoles on TCP ports (2001-2007) bound to
**Tailscale IP only** (`100.70.77.93`)
- [x] conman connects to TCP ports for logging + multiplexing (7 log
files active in `/var/log/conman/`)
- [x] Both ser2net + conmand enabled via systemd (survive reboot)
- [x] conmand systemd unit created (Debian package doesn't ship one)
- [x] Old `/root/conmap` + manual `screen` workflow replaced
### 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 |
|-------|--------|--------|
| **2 of 3 k3s cnodes on tsys4** | tsys4 failure = etcd quorum lost (1 of 3) | Accepted — fundamental constraint with 3 cnodes + 2 NFS servers. Revisit after Friday (local-SSD boot for one cnode) |
| **tsys1/5/9 RAM-overcommitted** | 118%/135%/131% respectively | Friday: migrate NFS-backed VMs to tsys6/tsys7 (77+132 GB free) |
| Technitium AXFR uses port 53 (occupied by Pi-hole) | Zone transfer via rsync instead of native AXFR | Workaround in place |
| tsys4/5 hardware pending | Perf tuning incomplete on 2 hosts | Friday physical install |
## Pending (next session priorities)
1. **Wnode storage rebalancing** (2 PDM storage migrations):
- wnode-tsys6 (100): D5 → S4 (tsys4 → tsys5)
- wnode-tsys7 (701): D5 → S1 (tsys4 → tsys5)
- Gives every wnode its own physical disk, balances 3/3 across servers
2. **Friday maintenance:** physical hardware + VM migrations (see
[`docs/proxmox/AUDIT-2026-07-28.md`](docs/proxmox/AUDIT-2026-07-28.md) §5)
3. **k8s workers:** Join wnodes to the k3s cluster (after rebalancing)
4. **PDU:** Rename outlets in powerman.conf to match physical devices (Friday)
5. **k8s deferred topics:** ETL tooling, HPC scheduler, vcluster policy,
solar-aware scale-out
> **See [`docs/proxmox/AUDIT-2026-07-28.md`](docs/proxmox/AUDIT-2026-07-28.md)
