# Questions — v10 (current round)
|
||
|
||
New round: O&M lane repo split + change management (work order 2026-09-03,
|
||
[#769](https://projects.knownelement.com/issues/769)). Still-open PMG items
|
||
from v9 carried at the bottom. One-line answers fine.
|
||
|
||
## Done while you were away (no answers needed — for the 20-min sitting)
|
||
|
||
- PFVCluster split into 12 dedicated KNEL repos (`~/projects/KNEL/<repo>`),
|
||
each with Redmine ticket + Discourse topic + git history. Map:
|
||
[t/296](https://community.turnsys.com/t/296) + AGENTS.md. PFVCluster keeps
|
||
cluster content only; KNELIAC references the new repos.
|
||
- Unit tests moved with code (netinfra, facilities) and pass. All repos
|
||
carry the enforcement layer; pre-push audits green.
|
||
- Change management: prod/preprod/sectestbed env map from live tsys5 state +
|
||
snapshot lifecycle tool (`scripts/pve-snapshot.sh`, verified end-to-end on
|
||
throwaway VM 59999, destroyed same session) — [t/331](https://community.turnsys.com/t/331).
|
||
Audit log: t/298 reply #120. pfv-bms/netinfra/PMG/PBS hard-protected in the tool.
|
||
|
||
## O&M round — new (one decision each)
|
||
|
||
**OQ1 (repo visibility).** Created all 12 repos PUBLIC per the 2026-08-31
|
||
ruling, matching PFVCluster's class. OK, or flip some/all private
|
||
(one-click each; say which)?
|
||
|
||
A: public is fine
|
||
|
||
**OQ2 (legacy overlaps).** Old repos `TSYS-CA` and `KNELSecretsManager`
|
||
overlap the new `ca` / `secrets`. Archive them into the new scheme
|
||
(redirect README), or leave as-is?
|
||
|
||
A; port them both to the new respective repository as it makes sense
|
||
|
||
**OQ3 (apt-satellite design).** Recommend: start with a flat pinned-mirror
|
||
(the #758 tsys-ca pattern), graduate to aptly when the fleet grows.
|
||
Approve?
|
||
|
||
Yes
|
||
|
||
**OQ4 (Prometheus placement).** Recommend: Prometheus + Alertmanager on
|
||
tsys-librenms alongside LibreNMS (same vantage, no new VM); Grafana stays
|
||
on Cloudron. Approve, or name a host?
|
||
|
||
No. Stay on cloudron.
|
||
|
||
**OQ5 (Kuma window automation).** `~/.creds/uptime-kuma.env` exists — may I
|
||
wire it into `pve-snapshot.sh` so rollbacks auto-create the maintenance
|
||
window (and close it after), instead of the current manual reminder?
|
||
|
||
Yes
|
||
|
||
**OQ6 (preprod ownership).** The 531xx preprod lane on tsys5: is THIS lane
|
||
the driver for vendor-version soak (~1wk, then promote), with per-domain
|
||
chats consulted? Or per-stack?
|
||
|
||
Hmmm. Not sure. I think this lane we map it out and test . And develop the proxsss and run the promotions / soak per stack . Analyze and report / retort please.
|
||
|
||
**OQ7 (GLPI changes during converge loops).** Until GLPI change-control is
|
||
ruled (#705/#741): sectestbed playbook iterations stay Redmine-ticket-only,
|
||
exception requests noted in the ticket. OK, or start logging GLPI Changes
|
||
now?
|
||
|
||
Start now
|
||
|
||
**OQ8 (pfv-bms → KNELBMS rename).** Deferred per your golden rule (HA chat
|
||
active). Confirm the rename lands with the HA chat once you bless it — this
|
||
lane will not touch it.
|
||
**A (founder, 2026-09-04, HA session): APPROVED — going ahead.** "I am
|
||
planning to tell all the other KNEL repos in their respective chats to
|
||
reference KNELBMS as the gold standard for SDLC/CI/CD/prod stability,
|
||
enterprise grade reliability." Execution plan: #785 (staged; repo → VM →
|
||
DNS, aliases kept through soak). Awaiting: gitea token/API for the repo
|
||
rename + founder confirm on full scope (repo-only vs repo+VM+hostname+DNS).
|
||
|
||
## Carried from v9 — still open (PMG, #696)
|
||
|
||
**PQ5 (native PMG cluster?).** Recommended: yes — config + quarantine
|
||
replication between .1.11/.1.10, managed strictly serial. OK?
|
||
|
||
Yes.
|
||
|
||
**PQ6 (TLS from fleet CA #697?).** Recommended: yes for the two admin
|
||
UIs; SMTP stays opportunistic.
|
||
|
||
Yes
|
||
|
||
**PQ7 (notify address).** Confirm `coo@turnsys.com` for PMG alerts +
|
||
held-mail notices?
|
||
|
||
Yes . For all root and postmaster etc mail
|
||
|
||
**PQ8 (VIP specifics).** Confirm VIP 192.168.3.249 + `smtp.knel.net` +
|
||
dhcpd host-decl pin (VRRP MAC 00:00:5e:00:01:0a)?
|
||
|
||
Yea
|
||
|
||
**PQ9 (outbound cutover staging).** Serial staged: PVE hosts + PBS first
|
||
(verify a week), then VM postfix. OK?
|
||
|
||
Yes
|
||
|
||
**PQ11 (Cloudron relay user — founder side).** Create `pfv-relay@turnsys.com`
|
||
for PMG submission, or point me at who does? Fallback: PMG delivers direct
|
||
to recipient MXs.
|
||
|
||
**PQ12 (k8s submission port).** :25 unauthenticated from trusted LAN as
|
||
default; :587+auth later if wanted. OK?
|
||
|
||
Yes
|
||
|
||
**PQ10 (side findings — ticket placement).** (a) tsys-ucs-02 root alias
|
||
blackhole; (b) Wazuh alerting never configured (#335). Ride-alongs in #696
|
||
or separate sub-tickets?
|
||
|
||
As you wish. I don’t have an option either way. Get outbound mail working everywhere.
|
||
|
||
## Carried from v6 — still open
|
||
|
||
**Q4. Second human approver in gitea?** Blocks access-roster merges by
|
||
design until landed. Does not block code/deploy work.
