Query logs stopped syncing on 2026-03-16 due to password mismatch after
MySQL cluster rebuild and Technitium app config reset.
- Add Vault static role mysql-technitium (7-day rotation)
- Add ExternalSecret for technitium-db-creds in technitium namespace
- Add password-sync CronJob (6h) to push rotated password to Technitium API
- Update Grafana datasource to use ESO-managed password
- Remove stale technitium_db_password variable (replaced by ESO)
- Update databases.md and restore-mysql.md runbook
All infrastructure changes must go through Terraform/Terragrunt.
kubectl is read-only except for temporary migration steps.
If a resource isn't in Terraform, evaluate adding it before
making manual changes.
Default to proxmox-lvm for all new services. NFS only for RWX,
backup destinations, or shared media libraries. Updated iSCSI
backup section to reflect proxmox-lvm migration.
Expanded cloud sync excludes to reduce sync time and Synology disk usage.
All excluded data is either regenerable or low-value.
TrueNAS Task 1 and incremental script already updated live.
- Terragrunt-regenerated providers.tf across stacks (vault_root_token
variable removed from root generate block)
- Upstream monitoring/openclaw/CLAUDE.md changes from rebase
Vault is now the sole source of truth for secrets. SOPS pipeline
removed entirely — auth via `vault login -method=oidc`.
Part A: SOPS removal
- vault/main.tf: delete 990 lines (93 vars + 43 KV write resources),
add self-read data source for OIDC creds from secret/vault
- terragrunt.hcl: remove SOPS var loading, vault_root_token, check_secrets hook
- scripts/tg: remove SOPS decryption, keep -auto-approve logic
- .woodpecker/default.yml: replace SOPS with Vault K8s auth via curl
- Delete secrets.sops.json, .sops.yaml
Part B: External Secrets Operator
- New stack stacks/external-secrets/ with Helm chart + 2 ClusterSecretStores
(vault-kv for KV v2, vault-database for DB engine)
Part C: Database secrets engine (in vault/main.tf)
- MySQL + PostgreSQL connections with static role rotation (24h)
- 6 MySQL roles (speedtest, wrongmove, codimd, nextcloud, shlink, grafana)
- 6 PostgreSQL roles (trading, health, linkwarden, affine, woodpecker, claude_memory)
Part D: Kubernetes secrets engine (in vault/main.tf)
- RBAC for Vault SA to manage K8s tokens
- Roles: dashboard-admin, ci-deployer, openclaw, local-admin
- New scripts/vault-kubeconfig helper for dynamic kubeconfig
K8s auth method with scoped policies for CI, ESO, OpenClaw, Woodpecker sync.
OpenClaw agents read the project-level CLAUDE.md from the workspace.
Adding explicit memory-tool CLI instructions here ensures the agent
uses exec to call memory-tool instead of looking for non-existent
MCP tools (memory_store, memory_recall).
Pull-through cache at 10.0.20.10 was serving corrupted/truncated images
for low-traffic registries, breaking VPA certgen (ImagePullBackOff) and
previously causing Kyverno image pull failures.
Kept: docker.io (port 5000) and ghcr.io (port 5010) — high traffic,
Docker Hub rate limits make caching essential.
Removed from cloud-init template and all 5 live nodes:
- registry.k8s.io (port 5030) — 14 system images, very low churn
- quay.io (port 5020) — 11 images
- reg.kyverno.io (port 5040) — 5 images
The registry containers on the 10.0.20.10 VM still run but nodes no
longer route to them. They can be stopped/removed from the VM later.
- Kyverno policy: VPA mode set to 'off' for all namespaces (was 'initial'
for non-core). Terraform is now sole authority for container resources.
Goldilocks provides recommendations only.
- Ollama: add explicit CPU/memory resources (500m/4Gi req, 4/12Gi limit)
alongside GPU allocation. Fixes OOMKill from VPA scaling down resources.
- MySQL InnoDB Cluster: bump memory limit from 2Gi to 3Gi.
- Remove redundant per-namespace VPA opt-out labels from onlyoffice,
openclaw, trading-bot (now handled globally by Kyverno policy).
