infra/PROD-PROVISIONING.md §2 recorded the etcd/Longhorn shared-partition risk as "accepted to be MEASURED, not assumed", with an exit condition. The measurement arrived on 2026-09-07 in production, 2 d 7 h after bring-up, as an outage. §2 now carries "THE MEASUREMENT CAME BACK": the journal evidence, the three-node IO PSI table (11.36 / 0.75 / 1.29), and the honest verdict that the section's own premise — "every prod node is SSD or NVMe, where rebuild I/O costs latency rather than collapsing it" — was right about node 2 and wrong about node 1. A 2011 C400 with 61,440 reallocated sectors and no power-loss protection is not the "SSD" that reasoning assumed, and §0 had already named the three-way drive asymmetry as the fault line. The exit condition is OPEN and the second bullet (dedicated device) applies; that remains the operator's. Also records what the three software mitigations in this branch do and do not buy, including the point that no cgroup or scheduler control arbitrates the ext4 journal both tenants share — and the gap that etcd's own fsync histograms, which the exit condition literally asks for, are not collected because kubeEtcd is disabled for k3s. PSI is the signal that exists. DECISIONS-LOG gains the full entry: the four I/O mechanisms found INERT on these nodes (IOSchedulingClass, IOSchedulingPriority, io.latency, bare IOWeight), the finding that concurrentReplicaRebuildPerNodeLimit was already set and already held during the outage, the third instance of config that looked applied and was not (orphanAutoDeletion), and the three things still requiring the operator. infra/ansible/README.md: CORRECTED a stale claim that k3s-prod-2/-3 "stay commented out" of the inventory. They have been live in [k3s_prod_secondary] since 2026-09-03. That sentence is exactly the kind used to reason about blast radius — `-e k3s_hosts=k3s_prod` targets THREE hosts, not one — so it is replaced with the --list-hosts command that settles it. The new etcd-io-priority play is added to the run order, the layer table and the prod command list.

infra/ — node provisioning and the toolchain
OpenTofu (Proxmox VE) + cloud-init + Ansible bring up the 3-node k3s/Cilium dev cluster.
Spec: ../home-network-k3s/docs/02-environments-and-provisioning.md.
| Path | What |
|---|---|
tofu/ |
The "Create" stage: 3 cloud-init'd VMs on the Proxmox box (bpg/proxmox provider) |
cloud-init/ |
First-boot baseline shipped as a Proxmox user-data snippet |
ansible/ |
The "Baseline"/"Configure" stages: k3s HA, Cilium, kube-vip, the VPN egress gateway |
devcontainer/ |
The pinned toolchain (tofu, ansible, sops, age, flux, kubectl, helm and the whole CI gate toolchain) |
cluster.sh |
RETIRED — drove the old libvirt VMs; does not work against Proxmox |
PHASE1-STATUS.md |
Current state of the cluster and how to reconnect to it |
PHASE1-SCOPE.md |
Historical Phase-1 scoping doc (libvirt era — superseded) |
Where the cluster actually lives
The dev cluster is not on this workstation. It runs on a Proxmox VE host; the nodes sit on the Proxmox LAN and are reached across a pfSense NAT:
| Nodes | k3s-dev-1/2/3 at 192.168.1.50/.51/.52 — 6 vCPU, 24 GiB, Debian 13, k3s v1.36.4 |
| kube-API | kube-vip VIP 192.168.1.49:6443, reached from the workstation via NAT 192.168.2.50:6443 |
| Node SSH | pfSense NAT 192.168.2.102:2250/2251/2252 → node :22 (Ansible only) |
| Ingress VIP | 192.168.1.53 (Cilium L2, shared Gateway); .53–.60 reserved for LB VIPs |
The earlier libvirt/KVM cluster on 10.73.0.0/24 is retired. Any doc or command referencing
virsh, qemu:///system, or 10.73.0.x for the cluster is historical.
