docs(node): name the exact Ansible command that applies the pin, not 'run the play'
Node configuration in this project is Ansible's — declared in the inventory, reviewed,
version-controlled — and for prod it is the ONLY surface: infra/PROD-PROVISIONING.md
records prod as 3x bare metal with the dev OpenTofu -> Proxmox -> cloud-init path
explicitly not applying, so there is no tofu/cloud-init half to keep in parity for an
/etc/hosts pin.
The pin was already in the right place; what the docs lacked was the command. All four
places now carry the scoped, idempotent one:
cd infra/ansible && ansible-playbook playbooks/node-baseline.yml \
-e k3s_hosts=k3s_prod --tags hosts
--tags hosts runs ONLY the /etc/hosts task, so applying this pin cannot drift any other
baseline setting.
Also verified the mechanism is not inert, which is the failure mode this repo keeps
meeting: roles/node_baseline/tasks/main.yml renders node_baseline_hosts_pins into a marked
blockinfile with backup: true, and state: absent when the list empties — so a removed
entry really does leave the node.
