From 46237336950ee50ff9927d1af9f57209356bdba2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Erich Blume Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 11:05:40 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 01/20] C2(migrate-immich-to-ringtail): plan introduce mikado chain Goal: move immich (server, ML, valkey, postgres) off minikube-indri onto k3s-ringtail. Immich is the largest single tenant on minikube (~1.5 GiB resident) and minikube is memory-saturated. Prerequisite cards: - cnpg-on-ringtail - immich-pg-on-ringtail (requires cnpg-on-ringtail) - immich-pg-data-migration (requires immich-pg-on-ringtail) - sifaka-nfs-from-ringtail - immich-app-on-ringtail (requires immich-pg-on-ringtail, sifaka-nfs-from-ringtail) - immich-cutover-and-decommission (requires immich-pg-data-migration, immich-app-on-ringtail) Data loss is a critical failure; downtime is acceptable. The cutover plan favors a CNPG externalCluster basebackup (Option A) with pg_dump as the documented fallback (Option B).

From db37e7cc3eacd598903d3af344d586e509891c51 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Erich Blume Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 12:21:57 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 02/20] C2(migrate-immich-to-ringtail): plan capture two discovered concerns 1. Registering new ArgoCD apps from a feature branch: the app-of-apps "apps" Application is self-managing (re-reads apps.yaml on every sync, which pins targetRevision: main). So setting its revision to a branch doesn't stick across syncs, and new app definitions on a branch are invisible to the cluster via the normal flow. The goal card now documents the kubectl-apply + per-new-app `argocd app set --revision ` workaround. 2. Tailscale device-name collision on cutover. The minikube immich ingress claims tailnet hostname "photos" (tls.hosts: [photos]). The ringtail ingress can't claim the same name while minikube's is alive (Tailscale enforces uniqueness). Staging uses tls.hosts: [photos-ringtail], with the rename to "photos" baked into immich-cutover-and-decommission step 2 + step 5. Card dependency graph unchanged; no new cards.

Sequence: 1. Stopped immich-server + immich-machine-learning on minikube (scaled to 0). valkey + source pg kept running. 2. Copied minikube's immich-pg-ca + immich-pg-replication secrets to ringtail as source-immich-pg-{ca,replication}. 3. Recreated the ringtail immich-pg Cluster with bootstrap.pg_basebackup, replica.enabled=true, externalClusters pointing at immich-pg.tail8d86e.ts.net via the streaming_replica TLS cert. 4. Basebackup completed in ~50s. Replica caught up streaming. 5. Verified row counts identical between source and replica: asset=12681, user=1, album=28, smart_search=9624, activity=0, asset_face=3917. 6. Promoted via replica.enabled=false. pg_is_in_recovery → false. Write test passed. All 7 expected extensions present in immich db (vector, vchord, cube, earthdistance, pg_trgm, unaccent, uuid-ossp). 7. Pruned bootstrap + externalClusters blocks; deleted out-of-band replication secrets. Source minikube immich-pg is intact and untouched — recovery path remains available until immich-cutover-and-decommission completes.

Quiesced source: immich-server + immich-machine-learning on minikube scaled to 0 (done in immich-pg-data-migration). 2. Deleted minikube immich-tailscale Ingress; waited for "photos" Tailscale device to deregister. 3. (Promote of ringtail pg was done in immich-pg-data-migration.) 4. Renamed ringtail ingress tls.hosts photos-ringtail -> photos. 5. Caddy was already pointing photos.ops.eblu.me -> photos.tail8d86e.ts.net so no Ansible change needed. 6. Smoke test: photos.ops.eblu.me/api/server/ping -> 200, /api/server/version -> {"major":2,"minor":6,"patch":3}. 7. Borgmatic continuity: added a ringtail immich-pg-tailscale Service (same FQDN as before, immich-pg.tail8d86e.ts.net). Verified borgmatic role can SELECT count(*) FROM asset over the tailnet (returned 12681, matches source). Decommission: - Deleted argocd Application "immich" with --cascade (clears Deployments, Services, etc. on minikube). - Pruned blumeops-pg Application against the branch which removed the Cluster immich-pg, its ExternalSecret, and the old immich-pg-tailscale Service from minikube. - Deleted leftover Released PVs on minikube. - Deleted the empty immich namespace on minikube. Did not verify minikube host memory drop directly (tailscale-ssh re-auth was prompting at the time). Caller should confirm via "docker stats minikube" once SSH is re-authenticated.
