⚠️ Current Status

Containers: Not Deployed Yet

The Besu containers (VMIDs 1000-1004, 1500-1503, 2500-2502) do not exist yet. The deployment script deploy-besu-nodes.sh appears to hang during container creation (took 1 hour).

🚀 Next Steps (After Container Deployment)

Once containers are deployed, run these commands in order:

Step 1: Copy Configuration and Keys

cd /opt/smom-dbis-138-proxmox
./scripts/copy-besu-config.sh ../smom-dbis-138

Step 2: Copy static-nodes.json

# Copy to all containers
for vmid in 1000 1001 1002 1003 1004 1500 1501 1502 1503 2500 2501 2502; do
    pct push $vmid ../smom-dbis-138/config/static-nodes.json /etc/besu/static-nodes.json
done

Step 3: Start Besu Services

# Validators
for vmid in 1000 1001 1002 1003 1004; do
    pct exec $vmid -- systemctl enable besu-validator.service
    pct exec $vmid -- systemctl start besu-validator.service
done

# Sentries
for vmid in 1500 1501 1502 1503; do
    pct exec $vmid -- systemctl enable besu-sentry.service
    pct exec $vmid -- systemctl start besu-sentry.service
done

# RPC
for vmid in 2500 2501 2502; do
    pct exec $vmid -- systemctl enable besu-rpc.service
    pct exec $vmid -- systemctl start besu-rpc.service
done

Step 4: Verify Deployment

cd /opt/smom-dbis-138-proxmox
./scripts/validation/validate-deployment-comprehensive.sh

🔧 Troubleshooting Container Deployment

If deploy-besu-nodes.sh hangs, try:

1. Check prerequisites:

   # Verify OS template exists
   pveam list | grep ubuntu-22.04
   
   # Check storage
   pvesm status
   

2. Deploy containers manually (one at a time):

   # Example: Create validator 1
   pct create 1000 local:vztmpl/ubuntu-22.04-standard_22.04-1_amd64.tar.zst \
     --storage local-lvm \
     --hostname validator-1 \
     --memory 4096 \
     --cores 2 \
     --rootfs local-lvm:100 \
     --net0 bridge=vmbr0,name=eth0,ip=192.168.11.100/24,gw=192.168.11.1 \
     --unprivileged 1 \
     --start
   

3. Check for errors:

   # View deployment logs
   journalctl -u pve-container -f
   

4. Deploy in smaller batches:

   • Deploy validators first (1000-1004)
   • Then sentries (1500-1503)
   • Finally RPC nodes (2500-2502)

📝 Summary

Ready:

• ✅ All keys generated and verified
• ✅ Configuration files prepared
• ✅ Files synced to ml110
• ✅ Scripts ready for use

Pending:

• ⚠️ Container deployment (script hangs - may need manual deployment)
• ⚠️ Configuration copy (waiting for containers)
• ⚠️ Service startup (waiting for containers)

Recommendation: Deploy containers manually or in smaller batches to avoid hanging. Once containers are running, all configuration steps are automated and ready to execute.
