- Remove circular variable reference in site.yml
- Add kube_api_endpoint default to k3s-server role
- Variable is set via inventory group_vars and passed to role
- Primary CP now correctly adds LB IP to TLS SANs
Note: Existing cluster needs destroy/rebuild to regenerate certificates.
Changes:
- Use LB private IP (10.0.1.5) instead of public IP for cluster joins
- Add LB private IP to k3s TLS SANs on primary control plane
- This allows secondary CPs and workers to verify certificates when joining via LB
Fixes x509 certificate validation error when joining via LB public IP.
Major changes:
- Terraform: Scale to 3 control planes (cx23) + 3 workers (cx33)
- Terraform: Add Hetzner Load Balancer (lb11) for Kubernetes API
- Terraform: Add kube_api_lb_ip output
- Ansible: Add community.network collection to requirements
- Ansible: Update inventory to include LB endpoint
- Ansible: Configure secondary CPs and workers to join via LB
- Ansible: Add k3s_join_endpoint variable for HA joins
- Workflow: Add imports for cp-2, cp-3, and worker-3
- Docs: Update STABLE_BASELINE.md with HA topology and phase gates
Topology:
- 3 control planes (cx23 - 2 vCPU, 8GB RAM each)
- 3 workers (cx33 - 4 vCPU, 16GB RAM each)
- 1 Load Balancer (lb11) routing to all 3 control planes on port 6443
- Workers and secondary CPs join via LB endpoint for HA
Cost impact: +~€26/month (2 extra CPs + 1 extra worker + LB)
This fixes the chicken-and-egg problem where workers with
--kubelet-arg=cloud-provider=external couldn't join because CCM wasn't
running yet to remove the node.cloudprovider.kubernetes.io/uninitialized taint.
Changes:
- Create ansible/roles/ccm-deploy/ to deploy CCM via Helm during Ansible phase
- Reorder site.yml: CCM deploys after secrets but before workers join
- CCM runs on control_plane[0] with proper tolerations for control plane nodes
- Add 10s pause after CCM ready to ensure it can process new nodes
- Workers can now successfully join with external cloud provider enabled
Flux still manages CCM for updates, but initial install happens in Ansible.
