2.2 KiB

Scratchpad - Ubuntu 24.04 k3s VM Appliance

Metadata

  • Date started: 2026-02-23
  • Plan folder: ee/docs/plans/2026-02-23-ubuntu-k3s-vm-appliance/
  • Related chart: helm/ with base values at helm/values.yaml

Decisions Locked So Far

  1. Base OS: Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS.
  2. Kubernetes runtime: k3s for v1.
  3. Upgrade control plane: GitOps pull model with Flux.
  4. VM artifact targets: vSphere OVA and QCOW2.
  5. Automation code location: ee/ subtree under ee/appliance/.
  6. Product posture: locked appliance, no customer host tweaking.
  7. Topology path: start single-node, support migration to 3-node HA with embedded etcd.
  8. Artifact distribution: hybrid model (vendor-hosted default plus signed offline bundle import).
  9. Support policy: support N, N-1, and N-2.
  10. Upgrade jump policy: sequential only (N -> N+1).

Proposed Repository Layout

  1. ee/appliance/packer/
  2. ee/appliance/cloud-init/
  3. ee/appliance/k3s/
  4. ee/appliance/gitops/
  5. ee/appliance/scripts/
  6. historical local release metadata (removed)

Open Decisions To Finalize

  1. Concrete endpoint names and ownership for vendor-hosted artifact storage.
  2. Concrete endpoint names and operator flow for signed offline bundle distribution/import.
  3. Exact release promotion cadence and approval gates for candidate -> stable.

Risks / Gotchas

  1. If stale image rebuild policy is not enforced, "always-current" requirement fails in practice.
  2. If values overlays diverge from helm/ baseline too much, maintenance cost rises.
  3. Single-node defaults can block clean HA migration if datastore and scheduling assumptions are not made now.
  4. Air-gapped or restricted-network customer sites require explicit mirror/import path from day one.

Command Notes

  1. Plan folder created:
  • mkdir -p ee/docs/plans/2026-02-23-ubuntu-k3s-vm-appliance

Next Implementation Sequence (High-Level)

  1. Scaffold ee/appliance filesystem and script entrypoints.
  2. Add Packer templates and autoinstall seed.
  3. Add first-boot k3s + GitOps bootstrap flow.
  4. Add release manifest schema + publication logic.
  5. Add upgrade and rollback scripts.
  6. Validate single-node install and HA migration path in test environment.
