ArgoCD IO load distribution: Updated k8s/argocd/install.yaml to use hostPath volumes for application-controller (/prole/d001), redis (/prole/d002), and repo-server (/prole/d003). Updated Ansible configure task to create hostPath directories on myrddin.prole.org.
K3s configuration and testing: Added test playbooks for kubeconfig rewriting and argument validation. Updated K3s install, configure, and image import tasks. Configured required mounts and host-specific variables for myrddin.prole.org.
Miscellaneous: Updated conf/prole.cfg with K3S_TOKEN. Bumped prole-db version and updated recovery manifest templates. Minor UI adjustments in cluster screen.

- Fixed YAML syntax and Python version parsing in CNPG operator tasks.
- Added automated detection of active network interface (eth0 vs wlan0) for Retropie and Pi nodes to ensure correct K3s configuration.
- Implemented persistent node taints for retropie.prole.org to exclude CloudNative-PG workloads.
- Added a rollout restart mechanism for cnpg-controller-manager to recover from scheduling on tainted or unstable nodes.
- Removed redundant kubectl-cnpg dependency from the Python installer as it is now managed by Ansible.
- Improved prole.sh to force color output for Ansible playbooks.
- Updated prole.cfg with active K3s token and CNPG version information.
- Implement proactive CA hash verification and automated repair for mismatches
- Ensure agents prioritize discovered server tokens over stale vault values
- Fix K3s service hangs with explicit stop and killall before reinstall
- Add Retropie/Pi networking fixes (WiFi power save, wlan0 priority)
- Pin pre-staged images to stable, architecture-aware versions (arm64)
- Remove obsolete init-port-forwards and prole.cfg sync tasks
- Update k8s manifests and installer core logic with new tests
Repairs and improvements:
- iSCSI: Added cleanup tasks to remove stale mounts and fstab entries. Improved robustness of iSCSI target management and added 'iscsi_absent_mounts' support.
- K3s:
- Updated service start logic to accept 'activating' state, preventing premature failure during slow startups.
- Improved service stop logic to safely handle missing or not-found services.
- Ensured 'prole-installer' ServiceAccount and ClusterRoleBinding exist for K8s administration.
- Added leader election and etcd tuning arguments (forgiving leases) to config.yaml.j2.
- Removed deprecated 'prole-port-forwards' systemd service.
- Installer & Scripts:
- Updated legacy_tk.py to support K3s mode, secret resolution for passwords, and better environment management (including ~/.prole/env.sh for service mode).
- Updated init_ansible.sh to support PROLE_VAULT_PASS_FILE and ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE.
- Improved directory and kubeconfig path resolution in prole_cfg.sh to support fallback to ~/.prole.
- Enhanced Grafana password resolution in init_monitoring.sh.
- Added automatic application of iSCSI StorageClass and PersistentVolumes in init_openbao.sh.
- General: Switched conf/prole.cfg to k3s deployment mode and updated vault_k3s.yml token.
New Ansible Tasks and Playbooks:
- infrastructure/playbooks/iscsi_cleanup.yml: Automates logout and removal of stale iSCSI node records.
- infrastructure/playbooks/prole_logs_migrate.yml: Orchestrates /prole/logs migration to iSCSI storage.
- infrastructure/playbooks/tmp_bao_dir.yml: Ensures host-level storage directories for OpenBao.
- infrastructure/playbooks/tmp_mount.yml: Utility to verify and enforce host-level mounts.
- infrastructure/playbooks/k3s_sync.yml: Added tasks to start K3s after sync and update local kubeconfig on the controller.
- Added 'Unmount stale iSCSI mounts' and 'Remove stale iSCSI fstab entries' to the iscsi role.
- Added 'Ensure prole-installer service account exists' to the k3s role.
- install.py: Major update including configuration variable expansion, improved k3s/k3d handling, and enhanced installation logic.
- etc/ scripts: Significant refactoring of initialization scripts (Kerberos, Port Forwards, Garage Store, etc.).
