# Deployment Next Steps **Date**: 2025-12-09 **Status**: ⚠️ **LOCK ISSUE - MANUAL RESOLUTION REQUIRED** --- ## Current Situation ### ✅ Completed 1. **Provider Configuration**: ✅ Verified and working 2. **VM Resource Created**: ✅ basic-vm-001 (VMID 100) 3. **Deployment Initiated**: ✅ VM created in Proxmox ### ⚠️ Blocking Issue **VM Lock Timeout**: Configuration update blocked by Proxmox lock file **Error**: `can't lock file '/var/lock/qemu-server/lock-100.conf' - got timeout` --- ## Immediate Action Required ### Step 1: Resolve Lock on Proxmox Node **Access the Proxmox node and clear the lock:** ```bash # Connect to Proxmox node (replace with actual IP/hostname) ssh root@ # Check VM status qm status 100 # Unlock the VM qm unlock 100 # If unlock doesn't work, remove lock file rm -f /var/lock/qemu-server/lock-100.conf # Verify lock is cleared ls -la /var/lock/qemu-server/lock-100.conf ``` **Note**: If you don't have direct SSH access, you may need to: - Use Proxmox web UI - Access via console - Use another method to access the node ### Step 2: Verify Image Availability **While on the Proxmox node, verify the image exists:** ```bash # Check for image find /var/lib/vz/template/iso -name "ubuntu-22.04-cloud.img" pvesm list local-lvm | grep ubuntu-22.04-cloud # If missing, download it cd /var/lib/vz/template/iso wget https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/jammy/current/jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img mv jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img ubuntu-22.04-cloud.img ``` ### Step 3: Monitor Automatic Retry **After clearing the lock, the provider will automatically retry:** ```bash # Watch VM status kubectl get proxmoxvm basic-vm-001 -w # Watch provider logs kubectl logs -n crossplane-system -l app=crossplane-provider-proxmox --tail=50 -f ``` **Expected Timeline**: 1-5 minutes after lock is cleared --- ## After Lock Resolution ### Expected Sequence 1. **Provider retries** configuration update (automatic) 2. **VM configuration** completes successfully 3. **Image import** (if needed) completes 4. **Boot order** set correctly 5. **Cloud-init** configured 6. **VM boots** successfully 7. **VM reaches "running" state** 8. **IP address assigned** 9. **Ready condition becomes "True"** ### Verification Steps Once VM is running: ```bash # Get VM IP IP=$(kubectl get proxmoxvm basic-vm-001 -o jsonpath='{.status.networkInterfaces[0].ipAddress}') # Check cloud-init logs ssh admin@$IP "cat /var/log/cloud-init-output.log | tail -50" # Verify services ssh admin@$IP "systemctl status qemu-guest-agent chrony unattended-upgrades" # Test SSH access ssh admin@$IP "hostname && uptime" ``` --- ## If Lock Resolution Fails ### Alternative: Delete and Redeploy If the lock cannot be cleared: ```bash # 1. Delete Kubernetes resource kubectl delete proxmoxvm basic-vm-001 # 2. On Proxmox node, force delete VM ssh root@ "qm destroy 100 --purge --skiplock" # 3. Clean up locks ssh root@ "rm -f /var/lock/qemu-server/lock-100.conf" # 4. Wait for cleanup sleep 10 # 5. Redeploy kubectl apply -f examples/production/basic-vm.yaml ``` --- ## Long-term Solutions ### 1. Code Enhancement **Add lock handling to provider code:** - Detect lock errors in `UpdateVM` - Automatically call `qm unlock` before retry - Increase timeout for lock operations - Add exponential backoff for lock retries **File**: `crossplane-provider-proxmox/pkg/proxmox/client.go` ### 2. Pre-deployment Checks **Add validation before VM creation:** - Check for existing locks on target node - Verify no conflicting operations - Ensure Proxmox node is healthy ### 3. Deployment Strategy **For full deployment:** - Deploy VMs sequentially (not in parallel) - Add delays between deployments (30-60 seconds) - Monitor each deployment before proceeding - Implement retry logic with lock handling --- ## Full Deployment Plan (After Test Success) ### Phase 1: Infrastructure (2 VMs) 1. nginx-proxy-vm.yaml 2. cloudflare-tunnel-vm.yaml ### Phase 2: SMOM-DBIS-138 Core (8 VMs) 3-6. validator-01 through validator-04 7-10. sentry-01 through sentry-04 ### Phase 3: SMOM-DBIS-138 Services (8 VMs) 11-14. rpc-node-01 through rpc-node-04 15. services.yaml 16. blockscout.yaml 17. monitoring.yaml 18. management.yaml ### Phase 4: Phoenix VMs (8 VMs) 19-26. All Phoenix VMs ### Phase 5: Template VMs (2 VMs - Optional) 27. medium-vm.yaml 28. large-vm.yaml **Total**: 28 additional VMs after test VM --- ## Summary ### Current Status - ✅ Provider: Working - ✅ VM Created: Yes (VMID 100) - ⚠️ Configuration: Blocked by lock - ⚠️ State: Stopped ### Required Action **Manual lock resolution on Proxmox node** ### After Resolution - Provider will automatically retry - VM should complete configuration - VM should boot successfully - Full deployment can proceed --- **Last Updated**: 2025-12-09 **Status**: ⚠️ **WAITING FOR MANUAL LOCK RESOLUTION**
