Root cause of a W5 wedge: default 5m Helm timeout on slow-HDD Longhorn upgrades caused
a rollback attempt after the data had already migrated to the new minor, which the old
manager fatally refuses. Give the upgrade room and never auto-rollback (fail forward).

Land the two pacing components on current k8s 1.31 before the 1.32 k3s hop.
Cilium 1.17 supports k8s 1.29-1.32; Longhorn 1.8 supports 1.25+; Gateway API CRDs
stay v1.2.1 (Cilium 1.17 targets v1.2.x). Also commits the full upgrade plan doc.

Prereq for the Flux v2.7+ upgrade (W4). Flux 2.4 already serves image.toolkit/v1,
so this is safe now. render.py source + platform/image-automation + L3 test + L1 goldens.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <[email protected]>
Migrate image.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v1beta2 -> /v1 for ImageRepository,
ImagePolicy, and ImageUpdateAutomation ahead of the Flux v2.7+ upgrade
(cluster-upgrade-plan §3.2). Flux v2.4 (current) already serves /v1, so
migrating the manifests now is a safe no-op at runtime.
- catalog/render.py: r_image_automation emits v1 for ImageRepository/ImagePolicy
- platform/image-automation/{image-update-automation,per-service/pihole.example}
- conformance L3 hands-off-update chainsaw applies v1 CRs
- conformance L1 goldens re-rendered to match (apiVersion-only diff)
No spec-field changes required: all spec fields used (image, interval,
imageRepositoryRef, filterTags.pattern/extract, policy.semver.range,
sourceRef, git.*, update.strategy/path) are unchanged in v1; the v1
messageTemplate already uses .Changed (not the removed .Updated).
apps/ golden unaffected (canonical render uses --no-image-automation).

Dedicated SSD (rpool/local-zfs) virtio2 disk per k3s VM, etcd migrated to
/var/lib/rancher/k3s/server/db on /dev/vdc, isolating etcd WAL fsync from the
HDD Longhorn churn. Applied live one node at a time (dev-2/dev-1/dev-3, leader
last) with rebuild-freeze; dev-3 also bumped 16->24GB. All 3 nodes verified:
etcd on SSD, 3/3 healthy, 18/18 volumes healthy, tofu plan clean.

Interim bridge to stop Longhorn replica-rebuild I/O storms on the shared HDD
Storage pool from starving etcd WAL fsync (crash-looping k3s / flapping the
kube-vip VIP). Adds a small dedicated SSD disk per node for etcd only; Longhorn
stays on HDD. See docs/plans/ssd-etcd-isolation.md.
tofu (infra/tofu):
- New vars etcd_ssd_datastore (default "local-zfs" = rpool/data, Micron 5100
SATA SSD mirror w/ PLP) and etcd_disk_gib (default 16).
- New virtio2 disk block on the SSD datastore per VM: discard=on, cache=none
(honor guest fsync straight to the ZFS ZIL — safe on PLP SSD), iothread=false.
Kept last (ascending interface) so bpg does not reorder virtio0/virtio1.
- Revert the debian_cloud_image resource to the long type name
proxmox_virtual_environment_download_file to match the R2 state: bpg >= 0.111
dropped the cross-type moved{} linkage to the short proxmox_download_file, so
the stale moved block failed EVERY plan with "Resource type mismatch" (broken
on main too). Aligning code to state yields a clean plan with no image
re-download. Short-name migration is deferred to a deliberate `tofu state mv`.
ansible (node_baseline):
- Format /dev/vdc (label k3s-etcd) and mount it at
/var/lib/rancher/k3s/server/db (defaults,noatime; no nofail so a missing etcd
disk fails loudly rather than silently landing etcd on the root HDD) before
k3s starts, so a rebuilt node comes up with etcd isolated on SSD. Data-safe:
filesystem module never reformats an existing fs.
Phase 1 only: non-disruptive. No tofu apply, no node/VM/etcd/Longhorn changes.
tofu plan verified: 0 to add, 3 to change, 0 to destroy — every VM an in-place
disk ADD (virtio2), dev-3 also an in-place memory 16384->24576; no VM replace.
Merge gate green (render==golden included).

Headlamp OIDC login failed with `unsupported protocol scheme ""`. The
kubernetes-sigs/headlamp chart `envFrom`s the headlamp-oidc Secret verbatim
and renders args like `-oidc-idp-issuer-url=$(OIDC_ISSUER_URL)`, so the Secret
keys must be the exact env var names. The keys were camelCase
(clientID/issuerURL/scopes/callbackURL/clientSecret), following the mistaken
`.example`, so `OIDC_ISSUER_URL` was never defined. Kubernetes left the literal
`$(OIDC_ISSUER_URL)` in the arg and Headlamp's OIDC discovery hit
`Get "$(OIDC_ISSUER_URL)/.well-known/openid-configuration": unsupported
protocol scheme ""`.
Rename the SOPS Secret keys to OIDC_CLIENT_ID / OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET /
OIDC_ISSUER_URL / OIDC_SCOPES / OIDC_CALLBACK_URL (values unchanged, still
SOPS/age-encrypted). Fix the `.example` and README so the correct, load-bearing
key names are documented and the camelCase footgun can't recur.

The k3s VM disks are HDD-backed, so a full Longhorn replica rebuild's
sequential I/O can saturate the spindle and starve etcd's WAL fsync,
crash-looping etcd and flapping the kube-vip VIP (observed during a
rolling node resize). Cap rebuilds to one replica per node at a time so a
node bounce or replica replenishment can never storm the disks.
Set via HelmRelease defaultSettings.concurrentReplicaRebuildPerNodeLimit
(GitOps-managed, permanent). replica-replenishment-wait-interval stays at
the Longhorn default of 600s. Reference values.yaml kept in sync.

Raise per-node RAM from 16 GiB to 24 GiB for proper failover headroom.
Matches the live rolling resize of the three k3s-dev VMs on Proxmox
(qm set --memory 24576 per node, one at a time, KSM enabled first).
Single memory_mib var applies to all three nodes via for_each, so a
future `tofu apply` would resize all three at once and break etcd
quorum — the resize MUST be done live/rolling, not via apply.

Supersedes the previous kubectl-image repoint. The velero chart's pre-install
`velero-upgrade-crds` HOOK job runs docker.io/bitnami/kubectl, whose public
Docker Hub catalog Bitnami removed (Aug 2025); `bitnami/kubectl:1.31` 404s,
leaving the hook in Init:ImagePullBackOff so Velero never installs.
Repointing the hook to the exact-version rancher/kubectl:v1.31.5 (prior commit)
does not work: that image is distroless, and the hook's init runs
`/bin/sh -c "cp $(which sh)/... $(which kubectl) /tmp"` — with no /bin/sh it
crashes StartError (verified on-cluster).
The hook exists ONLY to UPDATE CRDs on chart upgrades — it is NOT how CRDs are
first installed. The chart ships all 13 Velero CRDs in its native `crds/`
directory, which Helm applies unconditionally on install (before hooks),
independent of this flag; the CRDs are already present on-cluster from Helm's
crds/ handling. Setting `upgradeCRDs: false` drops the fragile external
kubectl-image dependency entirely while CRDs still install. Trade-off: Helm
won't manage crds/ after install, so CRD schema upgrades become a
manual/Renovate step; acceptable given Velero's CRDs are stable.
All other Velero values (BSL -> versitygw s3://velero, kopia FSB node-agent, the
two Schedules, the velero-cloud-credentials secret) are unchanged.

The velero chart's pre-install `velero-upgrade-crds` hook defaults its kubectl
image to docker.io/bitnami/kubectl, whose public Docker Hub catalog Bitnami
removed (Aug 2025). `docker.io/bitnami/kubectl:1.31` now 404s, leaving the hook
job in Init:ImagePullBackOff so Velero never installs (no Deployment,
node-agent, or BackupStorageLocation).
Set kubectl.image to the Rancher-maintained mirror docker.io/rancher/kubectl,
pinned to the cluster's exact k8s minor v1.31.5 (multi-arch amd64/arm64,
verified pullable via the Docker Hub registry API). All other Velero values
(BSL → versitygw s3://velero, kopia FSB node-agent, the two Schedules, the
velero-cloud-credentials secret) are unchanged.

MinIO's open-source edition is de-prioritised (console removed, commercial
pivot), so swap the off-cluster S3 backup target on the Proxmox host to
versitygw v1.7.0 (github.com/versity/versitygw) — a maintained Go S3 gateway
serving a POSIX filesystem as S3.
Rename role minio_backup_target -> s3_backup_target and playbook backup-minio
-> backup-s3. The role now:
- decommissions any pre-existing MinIO (service/binary/env/mc-client/user/
object-layout), KEEPING the ZFS dataset Storage/k3s-backups and its mount
- installs the pinned, checksummed versitygw binary (fetched+extracted on the
controller, host has no internet), a dedicated versitygw system user, and a
Type=simple hardened systemd unit running the posix backend rooted at
/mnt/Storage/k3s-backups/data, bound to 192.168.1.9:9000 (same endpoint),
plain HTTP / path-style
- ensures the dataset has xattr=sa (versitygw stores object metadata in xattrs)
- pre-creates the velero + cnpg buckets (bucket == top-level subdir)
Credentials are REUSED: versitygw's ROOT key is set to the same scoped
access_key/secret the cluster already uses, so endpoint + key + secret + bucket
names are byte-identical to the old MinIO target. The GitOps SOPS secret
(platform/backup/minio-credentials.sops.yaml) and all cluster-side Velero/CNPG
config need ZERO change. The vaulted group_vars now expose
s3_backup_target_access_key/_secret_key (same values, MinIO root creds retired).
Verified live on the Proxmox host: versitygw active+enabled on 192.168.1.9:9000,
MinIO fully removed, dataset intact; SigV4 ListBuckets with the reused key
returns velero+cnpg; a throwaway in-cluster pod reaches http://192.168.1.9:9000
(versitygw S3 response). Re-run is idempotent (no host changes).

Stand up a single-node/single-drive MinIO S3 endpoint on the Proxmox host as the
off-cluster backup target for Velero (R-STATE-03) and CloudNativePG (R-IDP-05).
Ansible (author + executed):
- roles/minio_backup_target + playbooks/backup-minio.yml — idempotent, additive only:
ZFS dataset Storage/k3s-backups (zstd, quota=100G, /mnt/Storage/k3s-backups, no
sharenfs); minio system user; pinned+checksummed MinIO/mc binaries (fetched on the
controller since the host has no WAN, copied to host); hardened systemd unit bound to
the host's cluster-reachable LAN IP (auto-discovered) on :9000; velero + cnpg buckets;
a non-root access key scoped by IAM policy to only those two buckets.
- inventory: new [proxmox_hosts] group ([email protected].2.102); overrides the cluster-wide
ansible_user. Does not disturb existing k3s node entries.
- group_vars/proxmox_hosts/vault.yml (ansible-vault): root + scoped MinIO creds.
GitOps hand-off:
- platform/backup/minio-credentials.sops.yaml (+ .example) — SOPS/age-encrypted endpoint +
scoped key/secret for the Velero/CNPG wiring (WS-STORAGE/WS-SEC). Not yet wired into a
kustomization (left for the consuming agents).
Verified live: dataset props correct; minio active+enabled bound to 192.168.1.9:9000;
S3 endpoint http://192.168.1.9:9000/minio/health/ready returns 200 from an in-cluster pod;
buckets velero+cnpg present; scoped key created+policy attached; re-run is idempotent.

Add Crafty Controller 4 (registry.gitlab.com/crafty-controller/crafty-4:4.10.8)
as a platform component: a web panel that runs Java + Bedrock Minecraft servers as
subprocesses in one pod + a 20Gi Longhorn PVC (mounted 5x by subPath).
Auth = Option B (per-app oauth2-proxy reverse-proxy sidecar), since Cilium 1.16.5
cannot do ext_authz on the shared Gateway:
- oauth2-proxy v7.8.1 sidecar (:4180) reverse-proxies to Crafty's self-signed HTTPS
UI (127.0.0.1:8443), gated to Keycloak homelab realm group platform-admins.
- Confidential `crafty` client provisioned live via kcadm + captured in the realm
import; client secret + cookie secret via SOPS/age (mirrored in realm-clients).
- Web UI: HTTPRoute crafty.home.keithjackson.dev -> Service :80 -> sidecar :4180.
- Game ports: Cilium L2 LoadBalancer on VIP 192.168.1.55 (next free after .53/.54),
starter set TCP 25565-25567 (Java) + UDP 19132-19134 (Bedrock), NOT auth-gated.
- fsGroup:0 / runAsGroup:0 / runAsUser:1000 for the image's crafty:root identity on
the root:root Longhorn PVC (the seerr fsGroup lesson).
- Own non-gating Flux tier clusters/base/crafty.yaml (dependsOn platform-config,
wait:false) + sops-decryption patch in clusters/dev — a leaf UI must never gate
the platform.
- Explicit default-deny NetworkPolicy + CiliumNetworkPolicies (platform namespace,

Build the deferred forward-auth ENFORCEMENT for non-OIDC UIs (pihole/*arr/
qbittorrent/homepage; Crafty next), gated by Keycloak via oauth2-proxy.
- helmrelease: add `--allowed-groups=platform-admins` (R-IDP-06 floor:
authenticated AND in group) + `--skip-provider-button` (302 straight to
Keycloak; verified the interstitial 403 sign-in page otherwise).
- forward-auth-cec.yaml: interim self-authored CiliumClusterwideEnvoyConfig
ext_authz listener -> oauth2-proxy /oauth2/auth, failure_mode_allow:false,
per-route opt-in via virtualHost. TEMPLATE — not Flux-wired (PM deploys with
an L2 VIP + DNS repoint). The ext_authz stanza is verified in-cluster.
- README: document the mechanism, why per-route ext_authz on the shared Gateway
is NOT clean on Cilium 1.16.5 (machine-owned cilium-gateway-shared CEC; native
ExternalAuth/GEP-1494 in no released Cilium), the three options + recommendation,
the opt-in steps, the in-cluster proof, and the human browser test.
Keycloak `oauth2-proxy` client already carries the callback redirect URI + a
bare `groups` claim (full.path=false) — no realm change needed.
Proof (cilium-envoy v1.30.8): a standalone envoy running this exact ext_authz
stanza against the live oauth2-proxy denied unauthenticated requests (403,
oauth2-proxy sign-in body; upstream never served), while a no-filter control
route on the same backend returned 200. R-IDP-02 property holds.

The 7 falsely-firing platform alerts (KeycloakDown, KeycloakDatabaseDown,
KubeAPIDown, KubeletDown, VPNTunnelDown, KubeVirtControlPlaneDown,
CDINoDefaultStorageClass) share ONE root cause, not per-rule label mismatches:
the Prometheus PVC is 100% full ("no space left on device" on every WAL commit).
Evidence from the live dev cluster:
- /prometheus is 4.8G/5Gi, 0 bytes free; every scrape logs "Scrape commit
failed ... write to WAL: no space left on device". Scrapes still return 200
(targets show healthy, lastScrape=now) but samples are never stored, so the
TSDB head froze at 2026-08-28 13:45 UTC while the pod clock reads ~19:33 UTC.
- Instant queries at "now" therefore return an EMPTY vector, so every
absent()/==0 platform rule trips. Evaluated at the last-good-sample time each
expr is correctly FALSE (keycloak-0/keycloak-db-1 ready=1, apiserver+kubelet
up=1 x3, tun0 series present, kubevirt control-plane expr empty, CDI default
present) — the rules are correct; the monitor was simply blind.
`retention` alone prunes only by AGE: this cluster is 3d2h old with 3d dev
retention, so time-pruning has NEVER run and 3d of block churn (~1.2Gi/day) plus
a WAL that ballooned past 1Gi overran the 5Gi disk. Fix adds a size-based
retention cap (new MONITORING_PROMETHEUS_RETENTION_SIZE knob) kept below each
env's PVC so Prometheus drops oldest blocks before the disk fills, and bumps the
dev PVC 5Gi->8Gi for real WAL/head/compaction headroom.
- platform/monitoring/kube-prometheus-stack.yaml: retentionSize: ${knob}
- clusters/base/cluster-vars.yaml: knob default 8GiB (base 10Gi PVC)
- clusters/dev/kustomization.yaml: PVC 5Gi->8Gi, retentionSize 5GiB
- clusters/prod/kustomization.yaml: retentionSize 45GiB (50Gi PVC)
- platform/monitoring/README.md: knob table + rationale
Deploy note (PM): the PVC is already 100% full, so Prometheus cannot self-prune
until it can write. The 5Gi->8Gi bump must land as a Longhorn online expansion
(operator PVC expansion / manual patch); once free space returns, retentionSize
keeps it healthy. Watchdog left untouched.

Plex Deployment had no Plex env vars. Add via the ServiceDefinition env list
(rendered verbatim by catalog/render.py):
- PLEX_UID/PLEX_GID=1000 (image chowns /config to this and drops; matches the
Longhorn ownership convention seerr/semaphore use)
- TZ=Etc/UTC (no other service sets TZ repo-wide)
- ALLOWED_NETWORKS=10.0.0.0/8,192.168.0.0/16 so in-cluster clients (Seerr ->
plex:32400) are trusted as LAN (pod CIDR 10.0.0.0/16 + svc 10.43.0.0/16 + LAN)
PLEX_CLAIM intentionally not set (4-min TTL is unusable via git; one-time live
claim persists on /config). ADVERTISE_IP deferred: the only candidate host
resolves via split-horizon DNS to the internal Gateway VIP and its remote
reachability is unverified — a wrong value breaks remote access, so omitted
per prefer-safety, documented as a follow-up in catalog/plex.yaml.
Homepage still labeled seerr as "Overseerr"; renamed the tile to "Seerr"
(icon mdi-play-box-multiple keeps — not overseerr-specific).

Add the offline_access optional client scope to the `kubernetes`
kubelogin client so the operator's kubectl can request long-lived
OFFLINE refresh tokens (--oidc-extra-scope=offline_access) instead of
being forced to re-auth on the realm's ONLINE session timeouts
(ssoSessionIdleTimeout 30m / ssoSessionMaxLifespan 10h). Offline tokens
honour offlineSessionIdleTimeout 30d with no hard max lifespan.
- keycloak-realm-import.yaml: add optionalClientScopes: [offline_access]
to the kubernetes client so a fresh realm import reproduces it.
- k8s-oidc-rbac.yaml: document the kubeconfig exec-arg
(--oidc-extra-scope=offline_access) + clear-cache/re-login steps.
Realm session timeouts unchanged; scope is optional (opt-in) and
client-only. Applied live via kcadm (reversible).

Homepage v2.1.2 treats proxmox.yaml as a required config file (present in
the image skeleton dir /app/src/skeleton alongside services/settings/
bookmarks/widgets/docker/kubernetes/custom.*). On startup it copies a
default skeleton into /app/config for any required file that is missing.
The ConfigMap provided every skeleton file except proxmox.yaml, so the pod
tried to copyfile the proxmox skeleton into the read-only subPath-mounted
/app/config and crashed with EACCES -> CrashLoopBackOff -> Gateway "no
healthy upstream".
Provide an empty proxmox.yaml in the ConfigMap and mount it via subPath
like the other config files, so Homepage finds all required files and
never writes at runtime. Verified the full required set against the running
image's skeleton dir (9 files); proxmox.yaml was the only missing one.
Bumped checksum/config annotation to re-roll the pod.

Headlamp's HelmRelease sat in the wait:true `platform` Flux tier. Its pod
crashlooped (`flag provided but not defined: -session-ttl` — chart 0.40.1
renders a container arg the appVersion v0.40.1 backend lacks; upstream
kubernetes-sigs/headlamp#4883), and because it gated `platform`, the whole
chain stalled: platform Ready=Unknown -> platform-config, oauth2-proxy,
apps-wave-0/1/2 and apps-vms all Ready=False "dependency not ready".
Part A (unblock + durable lesson): a leaf UI must never gate the chain. Move
all Headlamp resources into a new non-gating Flux Kustomization
clusters/base/headlamp.yaml (dependsOn platform-config, wait:false, SOPS
decryption patched per-env in clusters/dev) — mirroring oauth2-proxy exactly.
The new Kustomization owns the whole platform/headlamp component; its HTTPRoute
moves from platform-config into platform/headlamp/kustomization.yaml. Removed
headlamp from platform/kustomization.yaml and its httproute from
platform-config/kustomization.yaml. Now a crashlooping Headlamp can never stall
platform/platform-config/apps.
Part B (make it start): pin the chart to 0.41.0 (`>=0.41.0 <0.42.0`). The
backend added `f.Int("session-ttl", …)` in v0.41.0 and chart 0.41.0 pins that
same image (appVersion == chart version), so chart+image realign; every arg the
chart renders for our values is supported. OIDC config + per-user RBAC
(clusterRoleBinding.create:false) unchanged.
Gate: `make -C ci gate` PASS.

Add Headlamp (kubernetes-sigs/headlamp Helm chart) at
headlamp.home.keithjackson.dev with native Keycloak OIDC login and PER-USER
RBAC: Headlamp forwards each user's id_token to the k3s apiserver, so the
existing oidc:* group bindings (platform-admins->cluster-admin, viewers->view)
apply per user. The ServiceAccount is deliberately NOT bound to cluster-admin
(clusterRoleBinding.create=false), since user requests ride the forwarded token.
Key integration nuance: the apiserver is configured oidc-client-id=kubernetes,
so it only accepts tokens whose aud contains `kubernetes`. The new `headlamp`
Keycloak client carries an oidc-audience-mapper (included.client.audience=
kubernetes) so tokens carry aud=[headlamp, kubernetes] -- accepted by both
Headlamp's own verifier and the apiserver, leaving the apiserver config
untouched. A groups mapper emits the `groups` claim the apiserver maps to RBAC.
- platform/headlamp: namespace, HelmRepository/HelmRelease, SOPS OIDC secret
(externalSecret envFrom), default-deny NetworkPolicy + Cilium ingress
(gateway)/egress (apiserver+Keycloak) policies, README. Wired into
platform/kustomization.yaml (platform tier).
- platform/headlamp/httproute.yaml wired into platform-config (Gateway API CR,
dependsOn platform), modeled on grafana-httproute.
- keycloak-realm-import: add `headlamp` confidential client + groups/audience
mappers + HEADLAMP_CLIENT_SECRET placeholder. Client also created LIVE via
kcadm (realm import no-ops on the existing realm).
- keycloak-realm-clients.sops: add headlamp-client-secret (mirrored into
headlamp-oidc-credentials clientSecret). Both encrypted to the repo age key.
