  • ⚠️ Action Required: Ensure image is accessible from specified storage

Provider Configuration

  • ⚠️ Action Required: Verify proxmox-provider-config exists in Kubernetes
  • ⚠️ Action Required: Verify provider credentials are correct

Network Configuration

  • All VMs use vmbr0: Consistent network configuration
  • ⚠️ Action Required: Verify vmbr0 exists on all Proxmox nodes

Resource Availability

  • ⚠️ Action Required: Verify sufficient CPU, memory, and disk on Proxmox nodes
  • ⚠️ Action Required: Check resource quotas before deployment

8. Deployment Readiness

Pre-Deployment Requirements

  • All VM YAML files complete and valid
  • All Cloud-Init configurations enhanced
  • All critical code fixes applied
  • All documentation complete
  • Pending: Image availability verification
  • Pending: Provider configuration verification
  • Pending: Resource availability check

Deployment Process

  2. Cloud-Init: All configurations complete
  3. Code Fixes: All critical issues resolved
  4. Provider Config: Verify in Kubernetes
  5. Image Availability: Verify on Proxmox nodes
  6. Resource Check: Verify capacity

⚠️ Pre-Deployment Actions Required

1. Verify Image Availability

# On each Proxmox node, verify image exists:
find /var/lib/vz/template/iso -name "ubuntu-22.04-cloud.img"
# Or check storage:
pvesm list <storage-name> | grep ubuntu-22.04-cloud

2. Verify Provider Configuration

# In Kubernetes:
kubectl get providerconfig proxmox-provider-config -n crossplane-system
kubectl get secret -n crossplane-system | grep proxmox

3. Verify Resource Availability

# Check Proxmox node resources:
pvesh get /nodes/<node>/status
# Check available storage:
pvesm list <storage-name>

4. Test Deployment

# Deploy test VM first:
kubectl apply -f examples/production/basic-vm.yaml
# Monitor deployment:
kubectl get proxmoxvm basic-vm-001 -w
# Check logs:
kubectl logs -n crossplane-system -l app=crossplane-provider-proxmox

Phase 5: Phoenix VMs (8 VMs)

20-27. All Phoenix VMs

Phase 6: Template VMs (2 VMs - Optional)

  1. medium-vm.yaml
  2. large-vm.yaml

10. Verification Steps After Deployment

Immediate Verification (First 5 minutes)

  1. Check VM creation in Proxmox
  2. Verify VM boot status
  3. Check cloud-init logs
  4. Verify guest agent status

Post-Boot Verification (After 10 minutes)

  1. SSH access test
  2. Service status check
  3. NTP synchronization check
  4. Security updates status
  5. Network connectivity test

Component-Specific Verification

  1. Nginx: HTTP/HTTPS access
