Prod is being stood up now, without waiting for node 2's RAM upgrade. Three coupled
changes, all applied and verified on all three nodes.
=== 1. KERNEL >= 6.13 — now a PREREQUISITE, not a nice-to-have ===
A k3s SERVER that intermittently boots with 2.6 GiB is not a degraded node; it fails under
etcd plus its workload share, unpredictably, on any reboot. Fixed before k3s goes on.
roles/node_baseline gains a `kernel`-tagged block: asserts the suite matches the node's
Debian release, writes a deb822 trixie-backports source, installs, reads back the exact
version, writes a provenance/rollback note to the node. Scoped by
node_baseline_backports_kernel (default FALSE, true only in group_vars/k3s_prod) — chosen
over a hostname test so a fourth prod node inherits it from group membership. Verified:
--check against dev skips all 8 tasks on all 3 hosts. Two deliberate calls: `state: latest`
not `present` (linux-image-amd64 was already installed from main, so `present` would have
silently fixed nothing), and NO preferences.d pin (backports' NotAutomatic +
ButAutomaticUpgrades already gives 100/500; an explicit Pin-Priority: 100 would switch OFF
automatic security upgrades for the very kernel being installed).
Installed 7.1.8+deb13-amd64 on all three; 6.12.107 kept bootable.
THE DECISIVE PROOF: node 2 booted at MEMATTR=0xbeeb0018 — the EXACT address that gave it
2.6 GiB twice — and now reserves 634,904K instead of 13,958,980K. MemTotal 15.4 GiB. Same
address, handled correctly; not a lucky draw.
§0b's claim that a fixed kernel prints 'FW_BUG Corrupted...' is CONDITIONAL and was
corrected: >=6.13 has three rejection gates and only the third prints that line; all three
nodes hit gate 1 (version > 2). Proof instead is boot-independent — decompressing
/boot/vmlinuz on all three yields the FW_BUG and descriptor-size strings verbatim; neither
exists in 6.12.
TWO MORE BUGS IN MY OWN HEALTH CHECK, found because the fix couldn't otherwise be shown:
- MEMATTR_VERSION_RE matched (\d+) but the kernel prints that field with %d — SIGNED. Node
2's real value was -1569980416, which did not match, so state fell through to `clean` and
the node reported PASS "the kernel accepted it without complaint". A FALSE PASS on the
exact bug the check exists to find. Now (-?\d+).
- bad_version was WARN unconditionally, so a FIXED node would have stayed WARN forever.
Now keys on memattr_kernel_fixed: same line, WARN below 6.13, PASS at/above.
=== 2. DISK LAYOUT — Longhorn claimed, per-node paths DISCOVERED not hardcoded ===
Operator decision: reuse the ~424 GB partition; accept the shared-device I/O risk (dev's
etcd/Longhorn contention was on a spinning HDD, prod is SSD/NVMe).
Device paths differ per node (sda5 / nvme0n1p5 / sda5), so the role DISCOVERS the partition
via `findmnt --mountpoint` on a declared claim mountpoint rather than trusting inventory.
Per-host host_vars would have frozen today's hardware into inventory, where it goes stale on
the first re-image and the stale value's failure mode is mkfs on the WRONG partition.
Eleven fail-closed asserts before any write: real block device, not backing / /boot /usr
/var /home /tmp or active swap (built from the node's OWN gathered facts, never a hardcoded
list), already ext4, no foreign label, >= 100 GiB, and empty. Relabel, never reformat.
/srv verified empty first on every node (ls -A -> lost+found only; du 20K; the "5.1% used"
was ext4's default 5% root reserve).
=== 3. k3s DATA-DIR MOVED — /var was 11.8 GiB and would have killed etcd ===
Measured on the fully-deployed dev cluster: containerd 21-25 GB/node, /var total 58-70 GB.
Prod's /var is 11.8 GiB and held BOTH etcd and the image store, so prod would have filled
/var during its first image pulls — and a full /var means etcd cannot write its WAL. Cluster
death, not degradation, arriving during bring-up. Invisible when the disk decision was made,
because "etcd on root" sounded like the 30 GiB / rather than a separate 12 GiB /var.
Now: p5 -> /data (LABEL=k3s-data), with /data/longhorn and /data/k3s. Neutral names chosen
deliberately — the partition now has two tenants, and reusing /srv would make "claimed" and
"unclaimed" indistinguishable to the idempotency pivot, while a bare `data` label would make
a stranger's `data` volume look already-claimed and weaken an assert.
The transition off the existing LABEL=longhorn mount is DECLARED, not inferred
(node_baseline_data_retired_fs_label/_retired_mount, defaults ""), because changing the label
makes a claimed node answer "no" to the pivot and walk into the greenfield path. Self-retiring
once blkid -L k3s-data succeeds. THREE independent gates keep live dev out: retired vars
default ""; gated on longhorn_source == claim-mountpoint (dev is `device`); and the emptiness
assert fails closed on dev's 18 volumes even if both were defeated.
k3s_data_dir is one variable read by two roles (k3s_server --data-dir; node_baseline derives
the etcd mount). Role default is k3s's own default, so dev is unchanged and keeps its
dedicated etcd device. node_baseline_etcd_source becomes `shared-data-partition` and is
LOAD-BEARING: the role asserts per run that the filesystem backing the etcd dir really IS the
data partition — had the mount silently failed, etcd plus 21-25 GB of images would land back
on the OS filesystem invisibly until the disk filled.
LONGHORN_DATA_PATH is a new cluster-vars knob (R-ENV-02): base and DEV /var/lib/longhorn,
prod /data/longhorn.
DEV PROVEN UNCHANGED, which is the property that mattered — the live cluster has 18 Longhorn
volumes on that path. All 12 substituting Flux paths rendered through
`kubectl kustomize | flux envsubst --strict` for both trees: 12/12 per-file SHA-256 identical
and an identical aggregate SHA over every rendered dev byte. With a POSITIVE CONTROL showing
the same harness detects prod changing on exactly one line — an all-identical result is
worthless if the harness cannot see change. Live check after: dev's default-data-path setting
still /var/lib/longhorn, 18 volumes attached, 0 Kustomizations unready.
Idempotent: run 2 is changed=0 on all three nodes. Also fixed a real tag bug — include_tasks
does NOT propagate its own tags to included tasks (unlike import_tasks), so `--tags disks`
selected the include and ran nothing inside it while reporting success.
OPEN DEFECTS, tracked not forgotten: node 2's warm-reboot hang (one clean reboot since, NOT a
fix); and node 3 runs dhcpcd for its wifi interface, which rewrites /etc/resolv.conf on lease
renewal — the role's `contended` detection checks resolvconf and NetworkManager only, so node
3's decided resolvers will silently revert.
Gate: MERGE GATE: PASS. L0 substitution check 106 assertions.
Serves: R-ENV-01, R-ENV-02, R-ENV-03, R-STATE-01, R-STATE-02, R-PLAT-01. Task: T-7.1.

# clusters/prod — DESIGN-ONLY overlay. NOT a build target until roadmap Phase 7 opens prod

# (spec roadmap/phases.md, AGENTS.md §6: "Never build directly on production").
|
|
#
|
|
# When Phase 7 is opened, `flux bootstrap ... --path=clusters/prod` points the prod cluster's Flux
|

# here. Like dev, this overlay adds NO resources — it ONLY patches cluster-vars with prod-scoped

# *** PHASE-7 BLOCKER — READ BEFORE BOOTSTRAPPING PROD ***

# `clusters/base/platform.yaml` now carries `dependsOn: [flux-system]` (the 2026-09-01 substitution-

# race fix). That names the ROOT Kustomization, which clusters/dev supplies as `dev/sync.yaml`
|
|
# (path ./clusters/dev). THIS overlay has no sync.yaml yet, so as written a prod bootstrap would
|
|
# leave `platform` stuck on "dependency 'flux-system/flux-system' is not ready" FOREVER and nothing
|
|
# downstream would reconcile. Phase 7 MUST add `clusters/prod/sync.yaml` — a copy of dev/sync.yaml
|
|
# with `path: ./clusters/prod` — as part of opening this overlay. (Adding it now is deliberately NOT
|
|
# done here: prod is design-only and its root object is the prod bring-up owner's call.)

# --- GitOps source (operator decision 2026-09-01: prod tracks the SAME BRANCH as dev) ---
|
|
#
|
|
# *** BOOTSTRAP BLOCKER — this URL CANNOT work on a cold prod cluster. READ BEFORE BRING-UP. ***
|
|
#
|
|
# Two independent reasons, both consequences of the split-horizon design:
|
|
# 1. SELF-HOSTING CIRCULARITY. Gitea runs ON THE DEV CLUSTER. Prod syncing from it means prod's
|
|
# GitOps source lives inside the very cluster slated for decommission. Gitea must move to
|
|
# prod (or off-cluster) BEFORE dev is retired, or prod loses its source of truth.
|
|
# 2. SPLIT-HORIZON DNS SENDS IT TO THE WRONG PLACE. platform/coredns/coredns-custom.yaml
|
|
# answers the ENTIRE home.keithjackson.dev zone with ${GATEWAY_VIP}. On prod that is
|
|
# 192.168.2.20 — PROD's own gateway, where no Gitea is listening. Prod's Flux would resolve
|
|
# gitea.home.keithjackson.dev to itself and never reach a repository.
|
|
#
|
|
# Bring-up therefore needs a TEMPORARY source (the bootstrap host-Gitea, or an off-cluster
|
|
# mirror), with a cutover to the in-cluster URL once Gitea actually runs on prod — exactly the
|
|
# sequence docs/05 describes for dev's own Phase-6 cutover. Tracked in PROD-PROVISIONING.md §7.
|
|
#
|
|
# The BRANCH below is settled and correct: prod tracks `main`, the same branch as dev.
|
|
# CONSEQUENCE, recorded deliberately: once prod is live, EVERY MERGE TO main RECONCILES BOTH
|
|
# CLUSTERS. There is no promotion step and no soak window — dev and prod move together.
