feat(cnpg): synchronous replication, quorum of 1, dataDurability preferred
Three instances replicating ASYNCHRONOUSLY still lose data on failover: COMMIT returns as soon as the primary has flushed locally, so a primary that dies before its standbys catch up takes the last few transactions with it and the promoted standby comes up quietly missing them. On keycloak-db that is a just-created user, a rotated credential or a consent vanishing at exactly the moment of a failover. `method: any` + `number: 1` makes COMMIT wait for ONE of the two standbys to confirm — the point of having them. dataDurability: preferred, NEVER required. `required` is a strict quorum: fewer than `number` healthy standbys and writes BLOCK. Postgres here shares three nodes with etcd and the CNI, so one degraded standby — a node reboot, a Longhorn replica rebuild, a Cilium restart — would turn a partial degradation into a total write outage, and on the SSO database that takes kubectl OIDC, Grafana, Headlamp, Gitea and forward-auth with it. `preferred` keeps synchronous commit while a healthy standby is there and relaxes the required count dynamically when one is not. dataDurability is only honoured while standbyNamesPre/standbyNamesPost are unset — both are. NON-DISRUPTIVE: this compiles to `synchronous_standby_names`, a reload-only PostgreSQL parameter. No pod restart, no switchover, no client disconnect. It is the last of the three commits because it wants standbys that already exist and are already on their final nodes. Field shape verified against the live clusters.postgresql.cnpg.io CRD before relying on it (CNPG 1.30.0, byte-identical schema on k3s-prod and k3s-dev): spec.postgresql.synchronous requires `method` (enum any|first) and `number` (x-kubernetes-validation self > 0); `dataDurability` is enum required| preferred. None of the three Clusters previously had a `postgresql:` block, so this adds one rather than merging into existing parameters. DEV IMPACT: identical and non-disruptive, same reload-only path. Verified: yamllint clean; both tiers render the block. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <[email protected]> (cherry picked from commit f1ce19461415e77eb2f1ca5109ebab49edf0860b) |

feat(cnpg): required pod anti-affinity + switchover primary rolls
`instances: 3` alone does not keep the three instances apart. All three Clusters used CNPG's default `podAntiAffinityType: preferred`, which is a scheduler HINT — two instances may share a node whenever that scores better, and they WILL on the path that matters: when CNPG recreates an instance after a node loss, the surviving nodes are the only candidates and one of them already runs an instance. `preferred` is how a 3-instance cluster decays back into the single-node failure domain the previous commit exists to remove. `required` makes it a scheduling constraint. On a 3-node cluster with no spare, the cost is that an instance whose node is gone stays Pending until a node returns. That is correct: a replacement squeezed onto an already-occupied node dies with that node while making the cluster LOOK three-way replicated. 2 of 3 instances still serve and CNPG still promotes. ALSO SETS primaryUpdateMethod: switchover. This is not cosmetic. Changing the affinity changes the instance pod spec, so CNPG performs a rolling update, and the CRD default for primaryUpdateMethod is `restart` (verified against the live CNPG 1.30.0 CRD on both clusters) — a delete-and-recreate of the PRIMARY pod, i.e. tens of seconds of no Postgres. On keycloak-db that is an SSO outage, which also means kubectl OIDC, Grafana, Headlamp, Gitea and forward-auth. With standbys now present, `switchover` promotes an already-updated streaming replica instead, reducing the roll to a connection reset. Known constraint documented in the manifest: under `switchover` the operator rejects an update that changes imageName and a postgresql parameter in the same reconcile. Verified satisfiable before merge (read-only): k3s-prod and k3s-dev each have 3 Ready, schedulable, untainted nodes, and every pgdata PVC already has a Longhorn replica on all three (replica-soft-anti-affinity=false), so any instance can attach from any node. DEV IMPACT: identical, and dev can absorb it. Longhorn dev nodes are 124.9 GiB each with 152.0 GiB already scheduled under a 200% over-provisioning ceiling (249.8 GiB); the six new 5Gi volumes add 30 GiB scheduled per node -> 182.0, still inside the ceiling, and only ~600 MiB per volume is really consumed. Prod is far looser: 239 -> 269 GiB scheduled against a 829 GiB ceiling. THIS IS THE DISRUPTIVE COMMIT of the three. Land it on its own reconcile, after the scale-out has produced two Ready standbys per Cluster, so the blast radius is one clean switchover per database rather than a scale-out and a roll at once. Expect a brief SSO interruption for keycloak-db. Verified: yamllint clean; both tiers render the new fields; field names, types and enum values checked against the live clusters.postgresql.cnpg.io CRD (CNPG 1.30.0, identical on prod and dev).

feat(cnpg): instances 3 on all three Clusters — a standby to fail over to
All three CNPG Clusters ran `instances: 1`. Longhorn's 3-way replication saves the DATA when a node dies; it does not save the SERVICE — a single instance has to be rescheduled, re-attach its volume and replay WAL before Postgres accepts a connection again. With nothing in the spec keeping them apart, all three primaries had drifted onto ONE node (k3s-prod-2 on prod, k3s-dev-3 on dev). On 2026-09-07 that node took SSO, Nextcloud and Semaphore down together, and with SSO went kubectl OIDC, Grafana, Headlamp, Gitea and forward-auth. Three instances give each Cluster a streaming standby CNPG can promote in seconds, repointing the -rw Service with no volume re-attach and no restore. UNBLOCKED BY WORKING BACKUPS, NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR THEM. Standbys replicate corruption and deletions faithfully; only the Barman archive is a backup, and adding standbys while archive_mode=on with a failing archive_command would have multiplied the disk-full clock, not hedged it. All three Clusters on both k3s-prod and k3s-dev now report ContinuousArchiving=True with a real firstRecoverabilityPoint (verified read-only, 2026-09-07). Scaling out is non-disruptive on its own: CNPG creates -2 then -3 sequentially, each seeded by pg_basebackup from the RUNNING primary. The primary is not restarted and clients are not disconnected. The anti-affinity change that DOES cause a switchover is deliberately the next commit. DEV IMPACT: identical — dev is on the same shape (three single-instance DBs, all on k3s-dev-3) and gets the same scale-out. Dev has three untainted nodes and Longhorn headroom for it (see the next commit's message for the numbers). Cost: 2 extra 5Gi PVCs per Cluster; ~30 GiB provisioned cluster-wide against live pgdata of ~600 MiB each, on Longhorn with 200% over-provisioning. Verified: yamllint clean; `kubectl kustomize --load-restrictor LoadRestrictionsNone platform-config` and `kubectl kustomize apps/wave-0` both render `instances: 3`.

feat(backup): the overlay picks the credential — BACKUP_CREDENTIALS_SUFFIX
The previous commit created the two halves. This one wires the choice, so dev renders MinIO
credentials and prod renders R2 credentials from the SAME base manifests (R-ENV-02: the
overlay patch is the entire difference between environments; no base manifest is forked).
cluster-vars BACKUP_CREDENTIALS_SUFFIX base "" | dev "" | prod "-prod"
velero HelmRelease credentials.existingSecret: velero-cloud-credentials${BACKUP_CREDENTIALS_SUFFIX}
3x CNPG Cluster s3Credentials.*.name: <db>-backup-credentials${BACKUP_CREDENTIALS_SUFFIX}
ONE SUFFIX, NOT FOUR SECRET-NAME KNOBS. Four independent knobs can be updated three-quarters
of the way, leaving one consumer reading the OTHER environment's key with nothing rendering
wrong — and StrictPostBuildSubstitutions cannot catch that: strict mode fails on an UNDEFINED
variable, never on a defined-but-stale one. With one suffix the four move together or not at
all. The cost is that the rendered Secret name is not greppable from the consumer, so both
kustomizations spell the two names out in full beside the resources.
THE BASE DEFAULT IS "" AND THAT IS LOAD-BEARING. It renders the UNSUFFIXED names — objects
that exist in every render, and that dev is running today. The alternative failure mode is
strictly worse than the shared-Secret state this replaces: velero's pod hangs in
ContainerCreating forever when `existingSecret` names a missing Secret (the volume never
mounts), and a CNPG Cluster whose s3Credentials Secret is absent stops archiving WAL — which
under archive_mode=on is a filling pgdata PVC, not a missing backup. So an unresolvable
default breaks the referencing cluster HARDER than a wrong key does. Both overlays state the
value explicitly anyway, so neither inherits it silently.
Prod's overlay change is a cluster-vars op only. The velero Flux Kustomization patch is
untouched (it stays decryption-only, and velero stays suspended on prod).
VERIFIED — `kubectl kustomize --load-restrictor LoadRestrictionsNone` on clusters/dev and
clusters/prod for the cluster-vars values, then on each of the four affected tiers (platform,
platform-config, platform/velero, apps/wave-0) piped through `flux envsubst --strict` with
that environment's variables:
strict envsubst PASSES for all 8 (env x tier) combinations
dev velero existingSecret velero-cloud-credentials
dev keycloak/nextcloud/semaphore-db <db>-backup-credentials (both key refs each)
prod velero existingSecret velero-cloud-credentials-prod
prod keycloak/nextcloud/semaphore-db <db>-backup-credentials-prod (both key refs each)
both all EIGHT Secret objects present in the rendered output (dev and prod alike)
no `${...}` survives in any rendered tier except gitea's three DELIBERATE `$${...}` shell
escapes in apps/wave-0, which are pre-existing and unrelated.
Read alongside the endpoints the same overlays already set, the two environments are now
isolated on credential AND target:
dev velero s3://velero (root) + cnpg s3://cnpg @ http://192.168.1.9:9000 region us-east-1
prod velero k3s-prod-backup/velero + barman prefix @ https://<acct>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com region auto

feat(backup): prod's off-cluster DR lands on R2 — and stops the WAL clock
Prod has been archiving WAL to `TBD-PROD-S3-BACKUP-ENDPOINT` since bootstrap. Verified live 2026-09-07 on all three CNPG Clusters: ContinuousArchiving=False, "unexpected failure invoking barman-cloud-wal-archive: exit status 4". Because archive_mode is ON, that is not a degraded backup — it is a DISK-FULL CLOCK. Postgres will not recycle a segment it has not archived, so keycloak-db's pgdata PVC is at 579 MiB used / 4360 MiB free and climbing monotonically. When it fills, the primary PANICs and takes SSO down, and with it kubectl OIDC, Grafana, Headlamp, Gitea and forward-auth. Wiring the endpoint is what lets Postgres drain the whole accumulated backlog in one pass. THE KNOB LAYOUT (three new, one repurposed) and why it is shaped this way. The operator created exactly ONE R2 bucket, `k3s-prod-backup`, but the two backup tools want differently-SHAPED values: the Velero chart takes `bucket` and `prefix` as separate fields, while CNPG's barmanObjectStore.destinationPath is one full s3:// URL whose first path segment IS the bucket. So: S3_BACKUP_ENDPOINT dev http://192.168.1.9:9000 prod https://<acct>.r2... S3_BACKUP_REGION dev us-east-1 prod auto VELERO_BACKUP_BUCKET dev velero prod k3s-prod-backup VELERO_BACKUP_PREFIX dev "" prod velero CNPG_BACKUP_PATH dev s3://cnpg prod s3://k3s-prod-backup/barman There is deliberately NO separate `S3_BACKUP_BUCKET`: CNPG's bucket already lives inside CNPG_BACKUP_PATH, and a second knob holding the same bucket name twice is a rotation waiting to drift. Three knobs, each shaped for its own consumer, and no two of them can contradict each other. TENANCY. Inside k3s-prod-backup, velero and barman get disjoint TOP-LEVEL prefixes — s3://k3s-prod-backup/velero/ and s3://k3s-prod-backup/barman/<cluster>/ — with the bucket ROOT left empty so a misrendered prefix lands somewhere obviously wrong instead of silently colliding. This is not tidiness: Velero ADOPTS every backup under its location and TTL-DELETES it on retention, so an overlapping prefix would let it reap WAL segments; and interleaving two Postgres servers' WAL into one prefix corrupts the chain outright. Dev↔prod isolation is doubly independent — different endpoint AND different bucket names — so neither cluster can reach the other's objects even with a mis-substituted prefix. DEV IS UNCHANGED, BYTE-FOR-BYTE, and that is asserted rather than assumed. Base defaults are dev's LIVE values (verified against the running cluster: BSL bucket=velero with NO prefix, region us-east-1; all three CNPG Clusters ContinuousArchiving=True at s3://cnpg on the MinIO), and the dev overlay now restates all five explicitly for the same reason LONGHORN_DATA_PATH is restated — a silent drift in base would ORPHAN the backups dev's PROVEN restore depends on. The empty-prefix case was the one real risk, and it is settled empirically: with prefix "" the chart omits objectStorage.prefix from the rendered BackupStorageLocation ENTIRELY (helm template, chart 12.1.0), so dev's live BSL is unchanged, not merely equivalent. R2's TWO GOTCHAS, both wired up front: - region must be exactly `auto`. head-bucket answers {"BucketRegion":"WNAM"}, which is a PHYSICAL LOCATION HINT, not a signing region. This was hardcoded us-east-1 inside the Velero HelmRelease — correct-by-accident for MinIO, wrong for anything else — so it is a knob now. - checksumAlgorithm: "". velero-plugin-for-aws v1.14.2 bundles an AWS SDK with flexible checksums on by default and sends x-amz-sdk-checksum-algorithm / x-amz-checksum-crc32 on every PUT; R2 rejects those with HTTP 400 InvalidArgument, failing every backup and every kopia blob upload. It must be PRESENT-but-empty (the plugin branches on the key existing), and the chart does emit an empty value — verified by rendering it. Harmless against MinIO, so it is unconditional rather than a fourth knob. WHAT THIS DOES NOT DO. Velero stays SUSPENDED on prod. `spec.suspend: true` is owned by field manager `flux` (verified: kustomize-controller's managedFields do not include f:suspend), so server-side apply will not strip it, and nothing here declares suspension — which would also trip R-ENV-03, since a prod overlay may patch only cluster-vars and a Flux Kustomization's `decryption`. Unsuspending is the operator's, after `standup.sh --s3-endpoint <r2> s3check` proves a round trip. NO DNS KNOB IS TOUCHED. BASE_DOMAIN stays prod.home.keithjackson.dev and every EXTERNALDNS_* value is untouched. The apex inversion on work/prod-standup-campaign was deliberately NOT carried: this branch ports that branch's R2 reasoning knob by knob, and merges nothing. VERIFIED: ci/l0.sh green (flux-postbuild-substitution 272 assertions, 0 hazards, 33 knobs defined / 28 referenced, every new token resolved in BOTH overlays); render-golden, lint, schema, spec-immutability green; touched requirement R-STATE-03 covered.

feat(env): tokenize hardcoded dev LAN addresses into cluster-vars (R-ENV-02)
R-ENV-02 promises dev and prod differ ONLY by scoped cluster-vars overrides. In fact
dev LAN addresses were hardcoded into base manifests, so clusters/prod would have come
up ANNOUNCING DEV ADDRESSES (192.168.1.x) on the prod LAN (192.168.2.x).
New cluster-vars knobs (base default = dev literal, per the file's existing convention):
K3S_API_HOST platform/cilium/helmrelease.yaml (+ the values.yaml mirror)
CILIUM_LB_POOL_START platform-config/cilium/l2-ip-pool.yaml
CILIUM_LB_POOL_STOP "
UNIFI_L4_VIP apps/vms/unifi/50-service-l4.yaml
CRAFTY_L4_VIP platform/crafty/service-l4.yaml
S3_BACKUP_ENDPOINT platform/keycloak/postgres-cluster.yaml, apps/wave-0/{nextcloud,
semaphore}-db.yaml, and platform/velero/helmrelease.yaml
Also fixes GATEWAY_VIP's base default, which was still the RETIRED libvirt address
10.73.0.240, and adds the GATEWAY_VIP patch that clusters/prod was missing entirely.
clusters/base/apps-vms.yaml gains postBuild.substituteFrom (it was the one consuming
Kustomization without it, so a ${TOKEN} there would have shipped as a literal string).
The envsubst contract is documented there: ${VAR} substitutes and escapes as $${VAR};
$VAR and $(cmd) are left alone; ${ARR[0]} hard-errors. The three UOS_URL expansions in
the unifi cloud-init are escaped accordingly.
PROD ADDRESS PLAN (operator, 2026-08-31):
nodes .10/.11/.12 · control-plane VIP .9 (Ansible-side) · GATEWAY_VIP .20
Cilium LB pool .20-.30
CONTAINMENT INVARIANT, now documented at the pool and in the prod overlay: GATEWAY_VIP
MUST equal CILIUM_LB_POOL_START. The shared Gateway pins no address, so Cilium LB-IPAM
gives it the first free address of a matching pool block. An initial prod proposal put
.20 outside a .21-.30 pool; the Gateway would have come up on .21 while split-horizon
coredns-custom kept answering *.home.keithjackson.dev with .20 — an address nothing
announces — blackholing in-cluster OIDC hairpin traffic while reporting healthy. The
pool was widened to .20-.30. The control-plane VIP (.9) stays outside the pool so
kube-vip and LB-IPAM can never contend.
Values prod still cannot know stay INVALID `TBD-PROD-*` placeholders on purpose: base
defaults are dev values, so an omitted patch means prod silently inherits a dev address
— far worse than a loud failed apply.
DEV IS BYTE-IDENTICAL. Verified by kustomize build over 13 paths before/after, then
flux envsubst with the dev cluster-vars values applied to both sides: zero drift. The
only deltas are the intended additive keys in the overlay ConfigMap itself. No
unresolved ${TOKEN} survives. render-golden green (10 goldens); yamllint clean.
Serves: R-ENV-02. Task: T-7.1 (prerequisite). Gate: MERGE GATE: PASS.

feat(backup): wire Velero + CNPG Barman to the live MinIO S3 target
Author the GitOps side of off-cluster backups against the on-Proxmox MinIO (http://192.168.1.9:9000, path-style; buckets velero + cnpg). Velero (R-STATE-03): - HelmRelease (chart 8.x / Velero 1.15) + velero-plugin-for-aws init container + node-agent kopia File System Backup (deployNodeAgent, uploaderType=kopia, snapshotsEnabled=false). BSL default -> bucket velero, s3ForcePathStyle. - Two daily Schedules: `daily` backs up the whole cluster's resources+PVC data (defaultVolumesToFsBackup opt-out) EXCEPT monitoring+unifi; `daily-resources-only` captures monitoring+unifi RESOURCES only (Prometheus TSDB, Loki 72h logs, and the ~7.4GiB UniFi VM disk are reconstructable — excluded from volume backup). - velero-cloud-credentials SOPS Secret (cloud INI key, ns velero). - Own non-gating Flux tier clusters/base/backup.yaml (dependsOn platform-config, wait:false) + clusters/dev SOPS decryption patch — mirrors headlamp. CNPG native Barman PITR (R-IDP-05 / R-STATE-03): - keycloak-db, nextcloud-db, semaphore-db gain spec.backup.barmanObjectStore (s3://cnpg/<cluster>, endpointURL MinIO, gzip WAL+data, 30d retention) + a daily ScheduledBackup (6-field cron, immediate) each. - Per-namespace scoped-key SOPS Secrets (<db>-backup-credentials), same-ns only. - render.py: emit-waves now recognizes <svc>-db-backup-credentials.sops.yaml as a DB-wave sidecar (+ self-test); wave-0 kustomization regenerated. Creds mirror platform/backup/minio-credentials.sops.yaml (scoped key k3s-backup), SOPS round-trip verified with the cluster age key. gate: green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <[email protected]> |
