- [ ] Set up Kubernetes cluster (kind, minikube, or existing)
- [ ] Install Crossplane in Kubernetes
- [ ] Build Crossplane provider
- [ ] Deploy provider to Kubernetes
- [ ] Create ProviderConfig secret
- [ ] Verify provider connectivity

### Proxmox Images (Required for TASK-015)
- [ ] Verify `ubuntu-22.04-cloud` image exists on ML110-01
- [ ] Verify `ubuntu-22.04-cloud` image exists on R630-01
- [ ] Download images if missing (via SSH or Web UI)

### SSH Access (Required for TASK-012, TASK-013, TASK-030)
- [ ] Configure SSH access to ML110-01
- [ ] Configure SSH access to R630-01
- [ ] Deploy Prometheus exporters
- [ ] Configure Cloudflare tunnels
- [ ] Generate tunnel credentials

### Monitoring (Required for TASK-014)
- [ ] Deploy Prometheus (if not already deployed)
- [ ] Deploy Grafana (if not already deployed)
- [ ] Import Proxmox dashboards
- [ ] Configure data sources
- [ ] Set up alerts

## Pre-Deployment Verification

### Before Starting Kubernetes Deployment

1. **Verify Cluster Status**:
   ```bash
   # Via Web UI or SSH
   # Check cluster name: sankofa-sfv-01
   # Verify both nodes visible
   ```

2. **Verify Images**:
   ```bash
   ssh root@192.168.11.10 'pveam list local | grep ubuntu'
   ssh root@192.168.11.11 'pveam list local | grep ubuntu'
   ```

3. **Verify Storage**:
   - Check `local-lvm` storage exists on both nodes
   - Verify sufficient space for VMs

4. **Verify Network**:
   - Check `vmbr0` bridge exists on both nodes
   - Verify network connectivity

## Deployment Sequence

### Phase 1: Kubernetes Setup
1. Set up Kubernetes cluster
2. Install Crossplane
3. Build provider image
4. Deploy provider

### Phase 2: Provider Configuration
1. Create Kubernetes secret with Proxmox credentials
2. Apply ProviderConfig
3. Verify provider connectivity

### Phase 3: Image Preparation
1. Download/verify Ubuntu images on both nodes
2. Verify image accessibility

### Phase 4: Test Deployment
1. Deploy test VM on ML110-01
2. Deploy test VM on R630-01
3. Verify VM lifecycle operations

### Phase 5: Monitoring Setup
1. Deploy Prometheus exporters
2. Configure Grafana dashboards
3. Set up alerts

### Phase 6: Cloudflare Tunnels
1. Generate tunnel credentials
2. Deploy tunnels to nodes
3. Verify tunnel connectivity

## Quick Start Commands

### Once Kubernetes is Available

```bash
# 1. Create secret
kubectl create secret generic proxmox-credentials \
  --from-literal=credentials.json='{"username":"root@pam","token":"..."}' \
  -n crossplane-system

# 2. Apply ProviderConfig
kubectl apply -f crossplane-provider-proxmox/examples/provider-config.yaml

# 3. Deploy test VM
kubectl apply -f crossplane-provider-proxmox/examples/test-vm-instance-1.yaml
```

### Verify Images (SSH)

```bash
# On ML110-01
ssh root@192.168.11.10
pveam list local | grep ubuntu

# On R630-01
ssh root@192.168.11.11
pveam list local | grep ubuntu
```

## Blockers and Solutions

### Blocker 1: No Kubernetes Cluster
**Solution**: Set up local cluster using kind or minikube
```bash
# Using kind
kind create cluster --name sankofa

# Using minikube
minikube start
```

### Blocker 2: Images Not Available
**Solution**: Download via SSH or Web UI
```bash
ssh root@192.168.11.10
pveam download local ubuntu-22.04-standard_22.04-1_amd64.tar.gz
```

### Blocker 3: No SSH Access
**Solution**: Configure SSH keys or use Web UI for manual steps

## Progress Summary

- **Total Tasks**: 40
- **Completed**: 34 (85%)
- **Pending**: 6 (15%)
- **Ready for Deployment**: ✅ Yes (pending external access)

## Next Actions

1. **Immediate**: Set up Kubernetes cluster
2. **Immediate**: Verify/download Ubuntu images
3. **Next**: Deploy Crossplane provider
4. **Next**: Deploy test VMs
5. **Next**: Set up monitoring
