Besu Temporary VM Deployment - In Progress

Started: $(date)
Method: Option 1 - Complete Automated Deployment
Target: ml110 (192.168.11.10)
VMID: 9000
VM IP: 192.168.11.90

Deployment Steps

The deployment is running the following steps:

1. ✅ Files Synced - All deployment scripts synced to ml110
2. 🔄 Creating VM - Creating temporary VM (VMID 9000)
3. ⏳ Setting up Docker - Installing Docker in VM
4. ⏳ Copying Configs - Copying configuration files and keys
5. ⏳ Starting Containers - Starting all 12 Besu containers
6. ⏳ Validation - Validating deployment

Monitor Progress

Check Deployment Log

tail -f /tmp/besu-temp-vm-deployment.log

Check VM Status (on ml110)

ssh root@192.168.11.10 "qm status 9000"

Check Containers (once VM is ready)

ssh root@192.168.11.90 "docker ps"

Check Deployment Script Output

ssh root@192.168.11.10 "tail -f /opt/smom-dbis-138-proxmox/logs/*.log"

Expected Timeline

• VM Creation: 2-5 minutes
• Docker Setup: 3-5 minutes
• Config Copy: 1-2 minutes
• Container Startup: 5-10 minutes
• Validation: 2-3 minutes
• Total: 15-30 minutes

What Will Be Deployed

• VM: VMID 9000, 32GB RAM, 8 cores, 500GB disk
• 5 Validator Containers: besu-validator-1 through besu-validator-5
• 4 Sentry Containers: besu-sentry-1 through besu-sentry-4
• 3 RPC Containers: besu-rpc-1 through besu-rpc-3

RPC Endpoints (After Deployment)

• RPC-1: http://192.168.11.90:8545
• RPC-2: http://192.168.11.90:8547
• RPC-3: http://192.168.11.90:8549

Next Steps (After Deployment Completes)

1. Validate Deployment:

   ssh root@192.168.11.10 "cd /opt/smom-dbis-138-proxmox && ./scripts/validation/validate-besu-temp-vm.sh"
   

2. Monitor Containers:

   ssh root@192.168.11.90 "docker compose logs -f"
   

3. Test RPC Endpoint:

   curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[],"id":1}' \
     http://192.168.11.90:8545
   

4. When Ready, Migrate to LXC:

   ssh root@192.168.11.10 "cd /opt/smom-dbis-138-proxmox && \
     sudo ./scripts/deployment/deploy-besu-nodes.sh && \
     sudo ./scripts/migration/migrate-vm-to-lxc.sh /opt/smom-dbis-138"
   

Troubleshooting

If deployment fails:

1. Check the log file: /tmp/besu-temp-vm-deployment.log
2. SSH to ml110 and check VM status: qm status 9000
3. Check if VM exists: qm list | grep 9000
4. Review deployment script output on ml110
