+# Project Overview
+これは、日本発のクラウド基盤を作るためのプロジェクトです。
+OpenStackなどの既存の使いにくいクラウド基板の代替となり、ついでに基礎技術を各種ソフトウェアに転用できるようにする。
+
+# Principal
+Peer Aへ：**自分で戦略を**決めて良い！好きにやれ！
+
+# Current Priorities
+一通り実装を終わらせ、使いやすいプラットフォームと仕様が完成することを目標とする。
+実装すべきもの：
+1. クラスター管理用KVS（chainfire）
+  - これは、ライブラリとして作ることにする。単体でとりあえずKVSとして簡易的にも使えるという想定。
+  - Raft+Gossip。
+2. IAM基盤（aegisという名前にしたい。）
+  - 様々な認証方法に対応しておいてほしい。
+  - あと、サービス感の認証もうまくやる必要がある。mTLSでやることになるだろう。IAMとしてやるのが正解かどうかはわからないが。
+3. DBaaSのための高速KVS（FlareDB）
+  - そこそこクエリ効率の良いKVSを作り、その上にSQL互換レイヤーなどが乗れるようにする。
+  - 超高速である必要がある。
+  - 結果整合性モードと強整合性モードを両方載せられるようにしたい。
+  - Tsurugiのような高速なDBが参考になるかも知れない。
+  - DBaaSのためでもあるが、高速分散KVSということで、他のもののメタデータストアとして使えるべき。
+  - Chainfireとの棲み分けとしては、Chainfireは単体で使う時用と、大規模な場合はクラスター管理に集中させ、メタデータのストア（特に、サービ ス感の連携をするような場合は他のサービスのメタデータにアクセスしたくなるだろう。その時に、このKVSから読めれば良い。）はFlareDBにすると良 さそう。
+4. VM基盤（PlasmaVMC）
+  - ちゃんとした抽象化をすることで、様々なVMを扱えるようにしたい（KVM,FireCracker,mvisorなどなど）
+5. オブジェクトストレージ基盤（LightningSTOR）
+  - この基盤の標準的な感じの（ある程度共通化されており、使いやすい）APIと、S3互換なAPIがあると良いかも
+  - メタデータストアにFlareDBが使えるように当然なっているべき
+6. DNS（FlashDNS）
+  - PowerDNSを100%完全に代替可能なようにしてほしい。
+  - Route53のようなサービスが作れるようにしたい。
+  - BINDも使いたくない。
+    - 逆引きDNSをやるためにとんでもない行数のBINDのファイルを書くというのがあり、バカバカしすぎるのでサブネットマスクみたいなものに対応すると良い。
+  - DNS All-Rounderという感じにしたい。
+7. ロードバランサー（FiberLB）
+  - 超高速なロードバランサーとは名ばかりで、実体としてはBGPでやるので良いような気がしている。
+  - AWS ELBみたいなことをできるようにしたい。
+  - MaglevによるL4ロードバランシング
+  - BGP AnycastによるL2ロードバランシング
+  - L7ロードバランシング
+  - これらをいい感じにできると良い（既存のソフトウェアでできるかも？これは要確認。）
+8. Kubernetesクラスタをいい感じにホストできるもの？
+  - k0sとかk3sとかが参考になるかも知れない。
+9. これらをNixOS上で動くようにパッケージ化をしたりすると良い（Flake化？）。
+  - あと、Nixで設定できると良い。まあ設定ファイルを生成するだけなのでそれはできると思うが
+10. Nixによるベアメタルプロビジョニング
+11. オーバーレイネットワーク
+  - マルチテナントでもうまく動くためには、ユーザーの中でアクセスできるネットワークなど、考えなければいけないことが山ほどある。これを処理 するものも必要。
+  - とりあえずネットワーク部分自体の実装はOVNとかで良い。
+12. オブザーバビリティコンポーネント
+  - メトリクスストアが必要
+  - VictoriaMetricsはmTLSが有料なので、作る必要がある
+    - 完全オープンソースでやりたいからね
+  - 最低限、Prometheus互換（PromQL）とスケーラビリティ、Push型というのは必須になる
+    - メトリクスのデータをどこに置くかは良く良く考えないといけない。スケーラビリティを考えるとS3互換ストレージの上に載せたいが…？
+    - あと、圧縮するかどうかなど
+
+# 守るべき事柄
+1. Rustで書く。
+2. 全部のソフトウェアにおいて、コードベースの構造や依存ライブラリ、仕様や使い方を揃えて、統一感があるようにする。
+3. テスト可能なように作る。また、テストをちゃんと書く。スケーラブルかどうかや、実際に動くかどうかもテスト可能なように良く考えたうえで作る。
+4. スケーラビリティに気をつけて書く。ボトルネックになる箇所はないか？と常に確認する。
+5. 統一感ある仕様をちゃんと考える。（specificationsの中にmdで書いていってほしい。1ソフトウェアごとにフォルダを作り、その中に仕様を書く。 ）
+6. 設定ファイルについても統一感ある仕様が必要。
+7. マルチテナントに関して最初から考慮したうえで設計する（次の年にAWSやGCPでそのまま採用されてもおかしくないような性能や使いやすさが必要）。
+8. ホームラボ用途も満たすようにしたい。
+9. NixのFlakeで環境を作ったり固定したりすると良い。
+10. 前方互換性は気にする必要がない（すでにある実装に縛られる必要はなく、両方を変更して良い）。v2とかv3とかそういうふうにバージョンを増やしていくのはやめてほしい。そうではなく、完璧な一つの実装を作ることに専念してほしい。
+
+# 実戦テスト
+全ての作ったコンポーネントについて、実践的なテストを作ってバグや仕様の悪い点を洗い出し、修正する。
+NixやVM、コンテナなどあらゆるものを活用してよい。
+これにより、実用レベルまで持っていくことが期待される。
+実用的なアプリケーションを作ってみるとか、パフォーマンスを実際に高負荷な試験で確認するとか、そのレベルのものが求められている。
+また、各コンポーネントごとのテストも行うべきだが、様々なものを組み合わせるテストも行うべきである。これも含まれる。
+また、設定のやり方がちゃんと統一されているかなど、細かい点まで気を配ってやる必要がある。

+
+## Tenant Isolation Model
+
+PlasmaCloud enforces tenant isolation at three layers:
+
+### Layer 1: IAM Policy Enforcement
+
+Every API call is validated against the user's JWT token:
+- Token includes `org_id` and `project_id` claims
+- Resources are scoped as: `org/{org_id}/project/{project_id}/{resource_type}/{id}`
+- RBAC policies enforce: `resource.org_id == token.org_id`
+- Cross-tenant access results in 403 Forbidden
+
+### Layer 2: Network VPC Isolation
+
+Each VPC provides a logical network boundary:
+- VPC scoped to an `org_id`
+- OVN overlay ensures traffic isolation between VPCs
+- Different tenants can use the same CIDR without collision
+- Security groups provide intra-VPC firewall rules
+
+### Layer 3: VM Scoping
+
+Virtual machines are scoped to tenant organizations:
+- VM metadata includes `org_id` and `project_id`
+- VMs can only attach to ports in their tenant's VPC
+- VM operations filter by token scope
+- Hypervisor isolation ensures compute boundary
+
+**Validation**: All three layers tested in [cross-tenant denial tests](docs/por/T023-e2e-tenant-path/e2e_test.md#test-scenario-2-cross-tenant-denial).
+
+## Example Workflow
+
+### Create a Tenant with Network and VM
+
+```bash
+# 1. Authenticate and get token
+grpcurl -plaintext -d '{
+  "principal_id": "alice",
+  "org_id": "acme-corp",
+  "project_id": "project-alpha"
+}' localhost:50080 iam.v1.IamTokenService/IssueToken
+
+export TOKEN="<your-token>"
+
+# 2. Create VPC
+grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -d '{
+  "org_id": "acme-corp",
+  "project_id": "project-alpha",
+  "name": "main-vpc",
+  "cidr": "10.0.0.0/16"
+}' localhost:50081 novanet.v1.VpcService/CreateVpc
+
+export VPC_ID="<vpc-id>"
+
+# 3. Create Subnet
+grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -d '{

+  "dhcp_enabled": true
+}' localhost:50081 novanet.v1.SubnetService/CreateSubnet
+
+export SUBNET_ID="<subnet-id>"
+
+# 4. Create Port
+grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -d '{
+  "org_id": "acme-corp",
+  "project_id": "project-alpha",
+  "subnet_id": "'$SUBNET_ID'",
+  "name": "vm-port",
+  "ip_address": "10.0.1.10"
+}' localhost:50081 novanet.v1.PortService/CreatePort
+
+export PORT_ID="<port-id>"
+
+# 5. Create VM with Network
+grpcurl -plaintext -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -d '{
+  "name": "web-server-1",
+  "org_id": "acme-corp",
+  "project_id": "project-alpha",
+  "spec": {
+    "network": [{
+      "id": "eth0",
+      "port_id": "'$PORT_ID'"
+    }]
+  }
+}' localhost:50082 plasmavmc.v1.VmService/CreateVm

+# Architectural Gap Analysis: Compute & Core
+
+**Date:** 2025-12-08
+**Scope:** Core Infrastructure (Chainfire, IAM, FlareDB) & Application Services (FlashDNS, PlasmaVMC)
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+The platform's core infrastructure ("Data" and "Identity" pillars) is in excellent shape, with implementation matching specifications closely. However, the "Compute" pillar (PlasmaVMC) exhibits a significant architectural deviation from its specification, currently existing as a monolithic prototype rather than the specified distributed control plane/agent model.
+
+## Component Status Matrix
+
+| Component | Role | Specification Status | Implementation Status | Alignment |
+|-----------|------|----------------------|-----------------------|-----------|
+| **Chainfire** | Cluster KVS | High | High | ✅ Strong |
+| **Aegis (IAM)** | Identity | High | High | ✅ Strong |
+| **FlareDB** | DBaaS KVS | High | High | ✅ Strong |
+| **FlashDNS** | DNS Service | High | High | ✅ Strong |
+| **PlasmaVMC** | VM Platform | High | **Low / Prototype** | ❌ **Mismatch** |
+
+## Detailed Findings

+### 1. Core Infrastructure (Chainfire, Aegis, FlareDB)
+*   **Chainfire:** Fully implemented crate structure. Detailed feature gap analysis exists (`chainfire_t003_gap_analysis.md`).
+*   **Aegis:** Correctly structured with `iam-server`, `iam-authn`, `iam-authz`, etc. Integration with Chainfire/FlareDB backends is present in `main.rs`.
+*   **FlareDB:** Correctly structured with `flaredb-pd`, `flaredb-server` (Multi-Raft), and reserved namespaces for IAM/Metrics.
+
+### 2. Application Services (FlashDNS)
+*   **Status:** Excellent.
+*   **Evidence:** Crate structure matches spec. Integration with Chainfire (storage) and Aegis (auth) is visible in configuration and code.
+
+### 3. Compute Platform (PlasmaVMC) - The Gap
+*   **Specification:** Describes a distributed system with:
+    *   **Control Plane:** API, Scheduler, Image management.
+    *   **Agent:** Runs on compute nodes, manages local hypervisors.
+    *   **Communication:** gRPC between Control Plane and Agent.
+*   **Current Implementation:** Monolithic `plasmavmc-server`.
+    *   The `server` binary directly initializes `HypervisorRegistry` and registers `KvmBackend`/`FireCrackerBackend`.
+    *   **Missing Crates:**
+        *   `plasmavmc-agent` (Critical)
+        *   `plasmavmc-client`
+        *   `plasmavmc-core` (Scheduler logic)
+    *   **Implication:** The current code cannot support multi-node deployment or scheduling. It effectively runs the control plane *on* the hypervisor node.
+
+## Recommendations
+
+1.  **Prioritize PlasmaVMC Refactoring:** The immediate engineering focus should be to split `plasmavmc-server` into:
+    *   `plasmavmc-server` (Control Plane, Scheduler, API)
+    *   `plasmavmc-agent` (Node status, Hypervisor control)
+2.  **Implement Agent Protocol:** Define the gRPC interface between Server and Agent (`agent.proto` mentioned in spec but possibly missing or unused).
+3.  **Leverage Existing Foundation:** The `plasmavmc-hypervisor` trait is solid. The `agent` implementation should simply wrap this existing trait, making the refactor straightforward.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+The project foundation is solid. The "Data" and "Identity" layers are ready for higher-level integration. The "Compute" layer requires architectural realignment to meet the distributed design goals.

+# First-Boot Automation Architecture
+
+## Overview
+
+The first-boot automation system provides automated cluster joining and service initialization for bare-metal provisioned nodes. It handles two critical scenarios:
+
+1. **Bootstrap Mode**: First 3 nodes initialize a new Raft cluster
+2. **Join Mode**: Additional nodes join an existing cluster
+
+This document describes the architecture, design decisions, and implementation details.

+
+### Bootstrap Mode (bootstrap: true)
+
+**When to use:**
+- First 3 nodes in a new cluster
+- Nodes configured with matching `initial_peers`
+- No existing cluster to join
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Service starts with `--initial-cluster` parameter containing all bootstrap peers
+2. Raft consensus protocol automatically elects leader
+3. Cluster join service detects bootstrap mode and exits immediately
+4. No API calls to leader (cluster doesn't exist yet)
+
+**Configuration:**
+```json
+{
+  "bootstrap": true,
+  "initial_peers": ["node01:2380", "node02:2380", "node03:2380"]
+}
+```
+
+**Marker file:** `/var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-initialized`
+
+### Join Mode (bootstrap: false)
+
+**When to use:**
+- Nodes joining an existing cluster
+- Expansion or replacement nodes
+- Leader URL is known and reachable
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Service starts with no initial cluster configuration
+2. Cluster join service waits for local service health
+3. POST to leader's `/admin/member/add` with node info
+4. Leader adds member to Raft configuration
+5. Node joins cluster and synchronizes state
+
+**Configuration:**
+```json
+{
+  "bootstrap": false,
+  "leader_url": "https://node01.example.com:2379",
+  "raft_addr": "10.0.1.13:2380"
+}
+```
+
+**Marker file:** `/var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-joined`
+
+## Idempotency and State Management
+
+### Marker Files
+
+The system uses marker files to track initialization state:
+
+```
+/var/lib/first-boot-automation/
+├── .chainfire-initialized    # Bootstrap node initialized
+├── .chainfire-joined          # Node joined cluster
+├── .flaredb-initialized       # FlareDB bootstrap
+├── .flaredb-joined            # FlareDB joined
+└── .iam-initialized           # IAM setup complete
+```
+
+**Purpose:**
+- Prevent duplicate join attempts on reboot
+- Support idempotent operations
+- Enable troubleshooting (check timestamps)
+
+**Format:** ISO8601 timestamp of initialization
+```
+2025-12-10T10:30:45+00:00
+```

+
+## Retry Logic and Error Handling
+
+### Health Check Retry
+
+**Parameters:**
+- Timeout: 120 seconds (configurable)
+- Retry Interval: 5 seconds
+- Max Elapsed: 300 seconds
+
+**Logic:**
+```bash
+START_TIME=$(date +%s)
+while true; do
+    ELAPSED=$(($(date +%s) - START_TIME))
+    if [[ $ELAPSED -ge $TIMEOUT ]]; then
+        exit 1  # Timeout
+    fi
+
+    HTTP_CODE=$(curl -k -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" "$HEALTH_URL")
+    if [[ "$HTTP_CODE" == "200" ]]; then
+        exit 0  # Success
+    fi
+
+    sleep 5
+done
+```
+
+### Cluster Join Retry
+
+**Parameters:**
+- Max Attempts: 5 (configurable)
+- Retry Delay: 10 seconds
+- Exponential Backoff: Optional (not implemented)
+
+**Logic:**
+```bash
+for ATTEMPT in $(seq 1 $MAX_ATTEMPTS); do
+    HTTP_CODE=$(curl -X POST "$LEADER_URL/admin/member/add" -d "$PAYLOAD")
+
+    if [[ "$HTTP_CODE" == "200" || "$HTTP_CODE" == "201" ]]; then
+        exit 0  # Success
+    elif [[ "$HTTP_CODE" == "409" ]]; then
+        exit 2  # Already member
+    fi
+
+    sleep $RETRY_DELAY
+done
+
+exit 1  # Max attempts exhausted
+```
+
+### Error Codes
+
+**Health Check:**
+- `0`: Service healthy
+- `1`: Timeout or unhealthy
+
+**Cluster Join:**
+- `0`: Successfully joined
+- `1`: Failed after max attempts
+- `2`: Already joined (idempotent)
+- `3`: Invalid arguments
+
+**Bootstrap Detector:**
+- `0`: Should bootstrap
+- `1`: Should join existing
+- `2`: Configuration error
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### TLS Certificate Handling
+
+**Requirements:**
+- All inter-node communication uses TLS
+- Self-signed certificates supported via `-k` flag to curl
+- Certificate validation in production (remove `-k`)
+
+**Certificate Paths:**
+```json
+{
+  "tls": {
+    "enabled": true,
+    "ca_cert_path": "/etc/nixos/secrets/ca.crt",
+    "node_cert_path": "/etc/nixos/secrets/node01.crt",
+    "node_key_path": "/etc/nixos/secrets/node01.key"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Integration with T031:**
+- Certificates generated by T031 TLS automation
+- Copied to target during provisioning
+- Read by services at startup
+
+### Secrets Management
+
+**Cluster Configuration:**
+- Stored in `/etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json`
+- Permissions: `0600 root:root` (recommended)
+- Contains sensitive data: URLs, IPs, topology
+
+**API Credentials:**
+- IAM admin credentials (future implementation)
+- Stored in separate file: `/etc/nixos/secrets/iam-admin.json`
+- Never logged to journald
+
+### Attack Surface
+
+**Mitigations:**
+1. **Network-level**: Firewall rules restrict cluster API ports
+2. **Application-level**: mTLS for authenticated requests
+3. **Access control**: SystemD service isolation
+4. **Audit**: All operations logged to journald with structured JSON
+
+## Integration Points
+
+### T024 NixOS Modules
+
+The first-boot automation module imports and extends service modules:
+
+```nix
+# Example: netboot-control-plane.nix
+{
+  imports = [
+    ../modules/chainfire.nix
+    ../modules/flaredb.nix
+    ../modules/iam.nix
+    ../modules/first-boot-automation.nix
+  ];
+
+  services.first-boot-automation.enable = true;
+}
+```
+
+### T031 TLS Certificates
+
+**Dependencies:**
+- TLS certificates must exist before first boot
+- Provisioning script copies certificates to `/etc/nixos/secrets/`
+- Services read certificates at startup
+
+**Certificate Generation:**
+```bash
+# On provisioning server (T031)
+./tls/generate-node-cert.sh node01.example.com 10.0.1.10
+
+# Copied to target
+scp ca.crt node01.crt node01.key root@10.0.1.10:/etc/nixos/secrets/
+```
+
+### T032.S1-S3 PXE/Netboot
+
+**Boot Flow:**
+1. PXE boot loads iPXE firmware
+2. iPXE chainloads NixOS kernel/initrd
+3. NixOS installer runs (nixos-anywhere)
+4. System installed to disk with first-boot automation
+5. Reboot into installed system
+6. First-boot automation executes
+
+**Configuration Injection:**
+```bash
+# During nixos-anywhere provisioning
+mkdir -p /mnt/etc/nixos/secrets
+cp cluster-config.json /mnt/etc/nixos/secrets/
+chmod 600 /mnt/etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json
+```
+
+## Service Dependencies

+```
+
+## Logging and Observability
+
+### Structured Logging
+
+All scripts output JSON-formatted logs:
+
+```json
+{
+  "timestamp": "2025-12-10T10:30:45+00:00",
+  "level": "INFO",
+  "service": "chainfire",
+  "operation": "cluster-join",
+  "message": "Successfully joined cluster"
+}
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- Machine-readable for log aggregation (T025)
+- Easy filtering with `journalctl -o json`
+- Includes context (service, operation, timestamp)
+
+### Querying Logs
+
+**View all first-boot automation logs:**
+```bash
+journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service -u flaredb-cluster-join.service \
+           -u iam-initial-setup.service -u cluster-health-check.service
+```
+
+**Filter by log level:**
+```bash
+journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service | grep '"level":"ERROR"'
+```
+
+**Follow live:**
+```bash
+journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service -f
+```
+
+### Health Check Integration
+
+**T025 Observability:**
+- Health check service can POST to metrics endpoint
+- Prometheus scraping of `/health` endpoints
+- Alerts on cluster join failures
+
+**Future:**
+- Webhook to provisioning server on completion
+- Slack/email notifications on errors
+- Dashboard showing cluster join status
+
+## Performance Characteristics
+
+### Boot Time Analysis
+
+**Typical Timeline (3-node cluster):**
+```
+T+0s    : systemd starts
+T+5s    : network-online.target reached
+T+10s   : chainfire.service starts
+T+15s   : chainfire healthy
+T+15s   : chainfire-cluster-join runs (bootstrap, immediate exit)
+T+20s   : flaredb.service starts
+T+25s   : flaredb healthy
+T+25s   : flaredb-cluster-join runs (bootstrap, immediate exit)
+T+30s   : iam.service starts
+T+35s   : iam healthy
+T+35s   : iam-initial-setup runs
+T+40s   : cluster-health-check runs
+T+40s   : Node fully operational
+```
+
+**Join Mode (node joining existing cluster):**
+```
+T+0s    : systemd starts
+T+5s    : network-online.target reached
+T+10s   : chainfire.service starts
+T+15s   : chainfire healthy
+T+15s   : chainfire-cluster-join runs
+T+20s   : POST to leader, wait for response
+T+25s   : Successfully joined chainfire cluster
+T+25s   : flaredb.service starts
+T+30s   : flaredb healthy
+T+30s   : flaredb-cluster-join runs
+T+35s   : Successfully joined flaredb cluster
+T+40s   : iam-initial-setup (skips, already initialized)
+T+45s   : cluster-health-check runs
+T+45s   : Node fully operational
+```
+
+### Bottlenecks
+
+**Health Check Polling:**
+- 5-second intervals may be too aggressive
+- Recommendation: Exponential backoff
+
+**Network Latency:**
+- Join requests block on network RTT
+- Mitigation: Ensure low-latency cluster network
+
+**Raft Synchronization:**
+- New member must catch up on Raft log
+- Time depends on log size (seconds to minutes)
+
+## Failure Modes and Recovery
+
+### Common Failures
+
+**1. Leader Unreachable**
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"ERROR","message":"Join request failed: connection error"}
+```
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+- Check network connectivity: `ping node01.example.com`
+- Verify firewall rules: `iptables -L`
+- Check leader service status: `systemctl status chainfire.service`
+
+**Recovery:**
+```bash
+# Fix network/firewall, then restart join service
+systemctl restart chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+
+**2. Invalid Configuration**
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"ERROR","message":"Configuration file not found"}
+```
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+- Verify file exists: `ls -la /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json`
+- Check JSON syntax: `jq . /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json`
+
+**Recovery:**
+```bash
+# Fix configuration, then restart
+systemctl restart chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+
+**3. Service Not Healthy**
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"ERROR","message":"Health check timeout"}
+```
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+- Check service logs: `journalctl -u chainfire.service`
+- Verify service is running: `systemctl status chainfire.service`
+- Test health endpoint: `curl -k https://localhost:2379/health`
+
+**Recovery:**
+```bash
+# Restart the main service
+systemctl restart chainfire.service
+
+# Join service will auto-retry after RestartSec
+```
+
+**4. Already Member**
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"WARN","message":"Node already member of cluster (HTTP 409)"}
+```
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+- This is normal on reboots
+- Marker file created to prevent future attempts
+
+**Recovery:**
+- No action needed (idempotent behavior)
+
+### Manual Cluster Join
+
+If automation fails, manual join:
+
+**Chainfire:**
+```bash
+curl -k -X POST https://node01.example.com:2379/admin/member/add \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"id":"node04","raft_addr":"10.0.1.13:2380"}'
+
+# Create marker to prevent auto-retry
+mkdir -p /var/lib/first-boot-automation
+date -Iseconds > /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-joined
+```
+
+**FlareDB:**
+```bash
+curl -k -X POST https://node01.example.com:2479/admin/member/add \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"id":"node04","raft_addr":"10.0.1.13:2480"}'
+
+date -Iseconds > /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.flaredb-joined
+```
+
+### Rollback Procedure
+
+**Remove from cluster:**
+```bash
+# On leader
+curl -k -X DELETE https://node01.example.com:2379/admin/member/node04
+
+# On node being removed
+systemctl stop chainfire.service
+rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*
+rm /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-joined
+
+# Re-enable automation
+systemctl restart chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+

+
+## Overview
+
+The first-boot automation system handles automated cluster joining for distributed services (Chainfire, FlareDB, IAM) on first boot of bare-metal provisioned nodes. It supports two modes:
+
+- **Bootstrap Mode**: Initialize a new Raft cluster (first 3 nodes)
+- **Join Mode**: Join an existing cluster (additional nodes)
+
+### Features
+
+- Automated health checking with retries
+- Idempotent operations (safe to run multiple times)
+- Structured JSON logging to journald
+- Graceful failure handling with configurable retries
+- Integration with TLS certificates (T031)
+- Support for both bootstrap and runtime join scenarios
+
+### Architecture
+
+See [ARCHITECTURE.md](ARCHITECTURE.md) for detailed design documentation.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+1. Node provisioned via T032.S1-S3 (PXE boot and installation)
+2. Cluster configuration file at `/etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json`
+3. TLS certificates at `/etc/nixos/secrets/` (T031)
+4. Network connectivity to cluster leader (for join mode)
+
+### Enable First-Boot Automation
+
+In your NixOS configuration:
+
+```nix
+# /etc/nixos/configuration.nix
+{
+  imports = [
+    ./nix/modules/first-boot-automation.nix
+  ];
+
+  services.first-boot-automation = {
+    enable = true;
+    configFile = "/etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json";
+
+    # Optional: disable specific services
+    enableChainfire = true;
+    enableFlareDB = true;
+    enableIAM = true;
+    enableHealthCheck = true;
+  };
+}
+```
+
+### First Boot
+
+After provisioning and reboot:
+
+1. Node boots from disk
+2. systemd starts services
+3. First-boot automation runs automatically
+4. Cluster join completes within 30-60 seconds
+
+Check status:
+```bash
+systemctl status chainfire-cluster-join.service
+systemctl status flaredb-cluster-join.service
+systemctl status iam-initial-setup.service
+systemctl status cluster-health-check.service
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### cluster-config.json Format
+
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "node01",
+  "node_role": "control-plane",
+  "bootstrap": true,
+  "cluster_name": "prod-cluster",
+  "leader_url": "https://node01.prod.example.com:2379",
+  "raft_addr": "10.0.1.10:2380",
+  "initial_peers": [

+    "node01:2480",
+    "node02:2480",
+    "node03:2480"
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Required Fields
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `node_id` | string | Unique identifier for this node |
+| `node_role` | string | Node role: `control-plane`, `worker`, or `all-in-one` |
+| `bootstrap` | boolean | `true` for first 3 nodes, `false` for additional nodes |
+| `cluster_name` | string | Cluster identifier |
+| `leader_url` | string | HTTPS URL of cluster leader (used for join) |
+| `raft_addr` | string | This node's Raft address (IP:port) |
+| `initial_peers` | array | List of bootstrap peer addresses |
+| `flaredb_peers` | array | List of FlareDB peer addresses |
+
+### Optional Fields
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `node_ip` | string | Node's primary IP address |
+| `node_fqdn` | string | Fully qualified domain name |
+| `datacenter` | string | Datacenter identifier |
+| `rack` | string | Rack identifier |
+| `services` | object | Per-service configuration |
+| `tls` | object | TLS certificate paths |
+| `network` | object | Network CIDR ranges |
+
+### Example Configurations
+
+See [examples/](examples/) directory:
+
+- `cluster-config-bootstrap.json` - Bootstrap node (first 3)
+- `cluster-config-join.json` - Join node (additional)
+- `cluster-config-all-in-one.json` - Single-node deployment
+
+## Bootstrap vs Join
+
+### Bootstrap Mode (bootstrap: true)
+
+**When to use:**
+- First 3 nodes in a new cluster
+- Nodes configured with matching `initial_peers`
+- No existing cluster to join
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Services start with `--initial-cluster` configuration
+2. Raft consensus automatically elects leader
+3. Cluster join service detects bootstrap mode and exits immediately
+4. Marker file created: `/var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-initialized`
+
+**Example:**
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "node01",
+  "bootstrap": true,
+  "initial_peers": ["node01:2380", "node02:2380", "node03:2380"]
+}
+```
+
+### Join Mode (bootstrap: false)
+
+**When to use:**
+- Nodes joining an existing cluster
+- Expansion or replacement nodes
+- Leader is known and reachable
+
+**Behavior:**
+1. Service starts with no initial cluster config
+2. Waits for local service to be healthy (max 120s)
+3. POST to leader's `/admin/member/add` endpoint
+4. Retries up to 5 times with 10s delay
+5. Marker file created: `/var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-joined`
+
+**Example:**
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "node04",
+  "bootstrap": false,
+  "leader_url": "https://node01.prod.example.com:2379",
+  "raft_addr": "10.0.1.13:2380"
+}
+```
+
+### Decision Matrix
+
+| Scenario | bootstrap | initial_peers | leader_url |
+|----------|-----------|---------------|------------|
+| Node 1 (first) | `true` | all 3 nodes | self |
+| Node 2 (first) | `true` | all 3 nodes | self |
+| Node 3 (first) | `true` | all 3 nodes | self |
+| Node 4+ (join) | `false` | all 3 nodes | node 1 |

+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Check Service Status
+
+```bash
+# Overall status
+systemctl status chainfire-cluster-join.service
+systemctl status flaredb-cluster-join.service
+
+# Detailed logs with JSON output
+journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service -o json-pretty
+
+# Follow logs in real-time
+journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service -f
+```
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### 1. Health Check Timeout
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"ERROR","message":"Health check timeout after 120s"}
+```
+
+**Causes:**
+- Service not starting (check main service logs)
+- Port conflict
+- TLS certificate issues
+
+**Solutions:**
+```bash
+# Check main service
+systemctl status chainfire.service
+journalctl -u chainfire.service
+
+# Test health endpoint manually
+curl -k https://localhost:2379/health
+
+# Restart services
+systemctl restart chainfire.service
+systemctl restart chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+
+#### 2. Leader Unreachable
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"ERROR","message":"Join request failed: connection error"}
+```
+
+**Causes:**
+- Network connectivity issues
+- Firewall blocking ports
+- Leader not running
+- Wrong leader URL in config
+
+**Solutions:**
+```bash
+# Test network connectivity
+ping node01.prod.example.com
+curl -k https://node01.prod.example.com:2379/health
+
+# Check firewall
+iptables -L -n | grep 2379
+
+# Verify configuration
+jq '.leader_url' /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json
+
+# Try manual join (see below)
+```
+
+#### 3. Invalid Configuration
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"ERROR","message":"Configuration file not found"}
+```
+
+**Causes:**
+- Missing configuration file
+- Wrong file path
+- Invalid JSON syntax
+- Missing required fields
+
+**Solutions:**
+```bash
+# Check file exists
+ls -la /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json
+
+# Validate JSON syntax
+jq . /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json
+
+# Check required fields
+jq '.node_id, .bootstrap, .leader_url' /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json
+
+# Fix and restart
+systemctl restart chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+
+#### 4. Already Member (Reboot)
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"WARN","message":"Already member of cluster (HTTP 409)"}
+```
+
+**Explanation:**
+- This is **normal** on reboots
+- Marker file prevents duplicate joins
+- No action needed
+
+**Verify:**
+```bash
+# Check marker file
+cat /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-joined
+
+# Should show timestamp: 2025-12-10T10:30:45+00:00
+```
+
+#### 5. Join Retry Exhausted
+
+**Symptom:**
+```json
+{"level":"ERROR","message":"Failed to join cluster after 5 attempts"}
+```
+
+**Causes:**
+- Persistent network issues
+- Leader down or overloaded
+- Invalid node configuration
+- Cluster at capacity
+
+**Solutions:**
+```bash
+# Check cluster status on leader
+curl -k https://node01.prod.example.com:2379/admin/cluster/members | jq
+
+# Verify this node's configuration
+jq '.node_id, .raft_addr' /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json
+
+# Increase retry attempts (edit NixOS config)
+# Or perform manual join (see below)
+```
+
+### Verify Cluster Membership
+
+**On leader node:**
+```bash
+# Chainfire members
+curl -k https://localhost:2379/admin/cluster/members | jq
+
+# FlareDB members
+curl -k https://localhost:2479/admin/cluster/members | jq
+```
+
+**Expected output:**
+```json
+{
+  "members": [
+    {"id": "node01", "raft_addr": "10.0.1.10:2380", "status": "healthy"},
+    {"id": "node02", "raft_addr": "10.0.1.11:2380", "status": "healthy"},
+    {"id": "node03", "raft_addr": "10.0.1.12:2380", "status": "healthy"}
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Check Marker Files
+
+```bash
+# List all marker files
+ls -la /var/lib/first-boot-automation/
+
+# View timestamps
+cat /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-joined
+cat /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.flaredb-joined
+```
+
+### Reset and Re-join
+
+**Warning:** This will remove the node from the cluster and rejoin.
+
+```bash
+# Stop services
+systemctl stop chainfire.service flaredb.service
+
+# Remove data and markers
+rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*
+rm -rf /var/lib/flaredb/*
+rm /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-*
+rm /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.flaredb-*
+
+# Restart (will auto-join)
+systemctl start chainfire.service
+systemctl restart chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+
+## Manual Operations
+
+### Manual Cluster Join
+
+If automation fails, perform manual join:
+
+**Chainfire:**
+```bash
+# On joining node, ensure service is running and healthy
+curl -k https://localhost:2379/health
+
+# From any node, add member to cluster
+curl -k -X POST https://node01.prod.example.com:2379/admin/member/add \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "id": "node04",
+    "raft_addr": "10.0.1.13:2380"
+  }'
+
+# Create marker to prevent auto-retry
+mkdir -p /var/lib/first-boot-automation
+date -Iseconds > /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-joined
+```
+
+**FlareDB:**
+```bash
+curl -k -X POST https://node01.prod.example.com:2479/admin/member/add \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "id": "node04",
+    "raft_addr": "10.0.1.13:2480"
+  }'
+
+date -Iseconds > /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.flaredb-joined
+```
+
+### Remove Node from Cluster
+
+**On leader:**
+```bash
+# Chainfire
+curl -k -X DELETE https://node01.prod.example.com:2379/admin/member/node04
+
+# FlareDB
+curl -k -X DELETE https://node01.prod.example.com:2479/admin/member/node04
+```
+
+**On removed node:**
+```bash
+# Stop services
+systemctl stop chainfire.service flaredb.service
+
+# Clean up data
+rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*
+rm -rf /var/lib/flaredb/*
+rm /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-*
+rm /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.flaredb-*
+```
+
+### Disable First-Boot Automation
+
+If you need to disable automation:
+
+```nix
+# In NixOS configuration
+services.first-boot-automation.enable = false;
+```
+
+Or stop services temporarily:
+```bash
+systemctl stop chainfire-cluster-join.service
+systemctl disable chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+
+### Re-enable After Manual Operations
+
+After manual cluster operations:
+
+```bash
+# Create marker files to indicate join complete
+mkdir -p /var/lib/first-boot-automation
+date -Iseconds > /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.chainfire-joined
+date -Iseconds > /var/lib/first-boot-automation/.flaredb-joined
+
+# Or re-enable automation (will skip if markers exist)
+systemctl enable --now chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+
+## Security
+
+### TLS Certificates
+
+**Requirements:**
+- All cluster communication uses TLS
+- Certificates must exist before first boot
+- Generated by T031 TLS automation
+
+**Certificate Paths:**
+```
+/etc/nixos/secrets/
+├── ca.crt              # CA certificate
+├── node01.crt          # Node certificate
+└── node01.key          # Node private key (mode 0600)
+```
+
+**Permissions:**
+```bash
+chmod 600 /etc/nixos/secrets/node01.key
+chmod 644 /etc/nixos/secrets/node01.crt
+chmod 644 /etc/nixos/secrets/ca.crt
+```
+
+### Configuration File Security
+
+**Cluster configuration contains sensitive data:**
+- IP addresses and network topology
+- Service URLs
+- Node identifiers
+
+**Recommended permissions:**
+```bash
+chmod 600 /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json
+chown root:root /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json
+```
+
+### Network Security
+
+**Required firewall rules:**
+```bash
+# Chainfire
+iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 2379 -s 10.0.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT  # API
+iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 2380 -s 10.0.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT  # Raft
+iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 2381 -s 10.0.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT  # Gossip
+
+# FlareDB
+iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 2479 -s 10.0.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT  # API
+iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 2480 -s 10.0.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT  # Raft
+
+# IAM
+iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8080 -s 10.0.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT  # API
+```
+
+### Production Considerations
+
+**For production deployments:**
+
+1. **Remove `-k` flag from curl** (validate TLS certificates)
+2. **Implement mTLS** for client authentication
+3. **Rotate credentials** regularly
+4. **Audit logs** with structured logging
+5. **Monitor health endpoints** continuously
+6. **Backup cluster state** before changes
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: 3-Node Bootstrap Cluster
+
+**Node 1:**
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "node01",
+  "bootstrap": true,
+  "raft_addr": "10.0.1.10:2380",
+  "initial_peers": ["node01:2380", "node02:2380", "node03:2380"]
+}
+```
+
+**Node 2:**
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "node02",
+  "bootstrap": true,
+  "raft_addr": "10.0.1.11:2380",
+  "initial_peers": ["node01:2380", "node02:2380", "node03:2380"]
+}
+```
+
+**Node 3:**
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "node03",
+  "bootstrap": true,
+  "raft_addr": "10.0.1.12:2380",
+  "initial_peers": ["node01:2380", "node02:2380", "node03:2380"]
+}
+```
+
+**Provisioning:**
+```bash
+# Provision all 3 nodes simultaneously
+for i in {1..3}; do
+  nixos-anywhere --flake .#node0$i root@node0$i.example.com &
+done
+wait
+
+# Nodes will bootstrap automatically on first boot
+```
+
+### Example 2: Join Existing Cluster
+
+**Node 4 (joining):**
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "node04",
+  "bootstrap": false,
+  "leader_url": "https://node01.prod.example.com:2379",
+  "raft_addr": "10.0.1.13:2380"
+}
+```
+
+**Provisioning:**
+```bash
+nixos-anywhere --flake .#node04 root@node04.example.com
+
+# Node will automatically join on first boot
+```
+
+### Example 3: Single-Node All-in-One
+
+**For development/testing:**
+```json
+{
+  "node_id": "aio01",
+  "bootstrap": true,
+  "raft_addr": "10.0.2.10:2380",
+  "initial_peers": ["aio01:2380"],
+  "flaredb_peers": ["aio01:2480"]
+}
+```
+
+**Provisioning:**
+```bash
+nixos-anywhere --flake .#aio01 root@aio01.example.com
+```
+
+## Integration with Other Systems
+
+### T024 NixOS Modules
+
+First-boot automation integrates with service modules:
+
+```nix
+{
+  imports = [
+    ./nix/modules/chainfire.nix
+    ./nix/modules/flaredb.nix
+    ./nix/modules/first-boot-automation.nix
+  ];
+
+  services.chainfire.enable = true;
+  services.flaredb.enable = true;
+  services.first-boot-automation.enable = true;
+}
+```
+
+### T025 Observability
+
+Health checks integrate with Prometheus:
+
+```yaml
+# prometheus.yml
+scrape_configs:
+  - job_name: 'cluster-health'
+    static_configs:
+      - targets: ['node01:2379', 'node02:2379', 'node03:2379']
+    metrics_path: '/health'
+```
+
+### T031 TLS Certificates
+
+Certificates generated by T031 are used automatically:
+
+```bash
+# On provisioning server
+./tls/generate-node-cert.sh node01.example.com 10.0.1.10
+
+# Copied during nixos-anywhere
+# First-boot automation reads from /etc/nixos/secrets/
+```
+
+## Logs and Debugging
+
+### Structured Logging
+
+All logs are JSON-formatted:
+
+```json
+{
+  "timestamp": "2025-12-10T10:30:45+00:00",
+  "level": "INFO",
+  "service": "chainfire",
+  "operation": "cluster-join",
+  "message": "Successfully joined cluster"
+}
+```
+
+### Query Examples
+
+**All first-boot logs:**
+```bash
+journalctl -u "*cluster-join*" -u "*initial-setup*" -u "*health-check*"
+```
+
+**Errors only:**
+```bash
+journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service | grep '"level":"ERROR"'
+```
+
+**Last boot only:**
+```bash
+journalctl -b -u chainfire-cluster-join.service
+```
+
+**JSON output for parsing:**
+```bash
+journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service -o json | jq '.MESSAGE'
+```
+
+## Performance Tuning
+
+### Timeout Configuration
+
+Adjust timeouts in NixOS module:
+
+```nix
+services.first-boot-automation = {
+  enable = true;
+
+  # Override default ports if needed
+  chainfirePort = 2379;
+  flaredbPort = 2479;
+};
+```
+
+### Retry Configuration
+
+Modify retry logic in scripts:
+
+```bash
+# baremetal/first-boot/cluster-join.sh
+MAX_ATTEMPTS=10      # Increase from 5
+RETRY_DELAY=15       # Increase from 10s
+```
+
+### Health Check Interval
+
+Adjust polling interval:
+
+```bash
+# In service scripts
+sleep 10  # Increase from 5s for less aggressive polling
+```
+
+## Support and Contributing
+
+### Getting Help
+
+1. Check logs: `journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service`
+2. Review troubleshooting section above
+3. Consult [ARCHITECTURE.md](ARCHITECTURE.md) for design details
+4. Check cluster status on leader node
+
+### Reporting Issues
+
+Include in bug reports:
+
+```bash
+# Gather diagnostic information
+journalctl -u chainfire-cluster-join.service > cluster-join.log
+systemctl status chainfire-cluster-join.service > service-status.txt
+cat /etc/nixos/secrets/cluster-config.json > config.json  # Redact sensitive data!
+ls -la /var/lib/first-boot-automation/ > markers.txt
+```

+
+## Component Breakdown
+
+### 1. Netboot Configurations
+
+Located in `nix/images/`, these NixOS configurations define the netboot environment:
+
+#### `netboot-base.nix`
+**Purpose**: Common base configuration for all profiles
+
+**Key Features**:
+- Extends `netboot-minimal.nix` from nixpkgs
+- SSH server with root login (key-based only)
+- Generic kernel with broad hardware support
+- Disk management tools (disko, parted, cryptsetup, lvm2)
+- Network configuration (DHCP, predictable interface names)
+- Serial console support (ttyS0, tty0)
+- Minimal system (no docs, no sound)
+
+**Package Inclusions**:
+```nix
+disko, parted, gptfdisk     # Disk management
+cryptsetup, lvm2            # Encryption and LVM
+e2fsprogs, xfsprogs         # Filesystem tools
+iproute2, curl, tcpdump     # Network tools
+vim, tmux, htop             # System tools
+```
+
+**Kernel Configuration**:
+```nix
+boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_latest;
+boot.kernelParams = [
+  "console=ttyS0,115200"
+  "console=tty0"
+  "loglevel=4"
+];
+```
+
+#### `netboot-control-plane.nix`
+**Purpose**: Full control plane deployment
+
+**Imports**:
+- `netboot-base.nix` (base configuration)
+- `../modules` (PlasmaCloud service modules)
+
+**Service Inclusions**:
+- Chainfire (ports 2379, 2380, 2381)
+- FlareDB (ports 2479, 2480)
+- IAM (port 8080)
+- PlasmaVMC (port 8081)
+- NovaNET (port 8082)
+- FlashDNS (port 53)
+- FiberLB (port 8083)
+- LightningStor (port 8084)
+- K8sHost (port 8085)
+
+**Service State**: All services **disabled** by default via `lib.mkDefault false`
+
+**Resource Limits** (for netboot environment):
+```nix
+MemoryMax = "512M"
+CPUQuota = "50%"
+```
+
+#### `netboot-worker.nix`
+**Purpose**: Compute-focused worker nodes
+
+**Imports**:
+- `netboot-base.nix`
+- `../modules`
+
+**Service Inclusions**:
+- PlasmaVMC (VM management)
+- NovaNET (SDN)
+
+**Additional Features**:
+- KVM virtualization support
+- Open vSwitch for SDN
+- QEMU and libvirt tools
+- Optimized sysctl for VM workloads
+
+**Performance Tuning**:
+```nix
+"fs.file-max" = 1000000;
+"net.ipv4.ip_forward" = 1;
+"net.core.netdev_max_backlog" = 5000;
+```
+
+#### `netboot-all-in-one.nix`
+**Purpose**: Single-node deployment with all services
+
+**Imports**:
+- `netboot-base.nix`
+- `../modules`
+
+**Combines**: All features from control-plane + worker
+
+**Use Cases**:
+- Development environments
+- Small deployments
+- Edge locations
+- POC installations
+
+### 2. Flake Integration
+
+The main `flake.nix` exposes netboot configurations:
+
+```nix
+nixosConfigurations = {
+  netboot-control-plane = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
+    system = "x86_64-linux";
+    modules = [ ./nix/images/netboot-control-plane.nix ];
+  };
+
+  netboot-worker = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
+    system = "x86_64-linux";
+    modules = [ ./nix/images/netboot-worker.nix ];
+  };
+
+  netboot-all-in-one = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
+    system = "x86_64-linux";
+    modules = [ ./nix/images/netboot-all-in-one.nix ];
+  };
+};
+```
+
+### 3. Build Script
+
+`build-images.sh` orchestrates the build process:
+
+**Workflow**:
+1. Parse command-line arguments (--profile, --output-dir)
+2. Create output directories
+3. For each profile:
+   - Build netboot ramdisk: `nix build ...netbootRamdisk`
+   - Build kernel: `nix build ...kernel`
+   - Copy artifacts (bzImage, initrd)
+   - Generate iPXE boot script
+   - Calculate and display sizes
+4. Verify outputs (file existence, size sanity checks)
+5. Copy to PXE server (if available)
+6. Print summary
+
+**Build Commands**:
+```bash
+nix build .#nixosConfigurations.netboot-$profile.config.system.build.netbootRamdisk
+nix build .#nixosConfigurations.netboot-$profile.config.system.build.kernel
+```
+
+**Output Structure**:
+```
+artifacts/
+├── control-plane/
+│   ├── bzImage          # ~10-30 MB
+│   ├── initrd           # ~100-300 MB
+│   ├── netboot.ipxe     # iPXE script
+│   ├── build.log        # Build log
+│   ├── initrd-link      # Nix result symlink
+│   └── kernel-link      # Nix result symlink
+├── worker/
+│   └── ... (same structure)
+└── all-in-one/
+    └── ... (same structure)
+```
+
+## Integration Points
+
+### T024 NixOS Modules
+
+The netboot configurations leverage T024 service modules:
+
+**Module Structure** (example: chainfire.nix):
+```nix
+{
+  options.services.chainfire = {
+    enable = lib.mkEnableOption "chainfire service";
+    port = lib.mkOption { ... };
+    raftPort = lib.mkOption { ... };
+    package = lib.mkOption { ... };
+  };
+
+  config = lib.mkIf cfg.enable {
+    users.users.chainfire = { ... };
+    systemd.services.chainfire = { ... };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+**Package Availability**:
+```nix
+# In netboot-control-plane.nix
+environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
+  chainfire-server  # From flake overlay
+  flaredb-server    # From flake overlay
+  # ...
+];
+```
+
+### T032.S2 PXE Infrastructure
+
+The build script integrates with the PXE server:
+
+**Copy Workflow**:
+```bash
+# Build script copies to:
+chainfire/baremetal/pxe-server/assets/nixos/
+├── control-plane/
+│   ├── bzImage
+│   └── initrd
+├── worker/
+│   ├── bzImage
+│   └── initrd
+└── all-in-one/
+    ├── bzImage
+    └── initrd
+```
+
+**iPXE Boot Script** (generated):
+```ipxe
+#!ipxe
+kernel ${boot-server}/control-plane/bzImage init=/nix/store/*/init console=ttyS0,115200
+initrd ${boot-server}/control-plane/initrd
+boot
+```
+
+## Build Process Deep Dive
+
+### NixOS Netboot Build Internals
+
+1. **netboot-minimal.nix** (from nixpkgs):
+   - Provides base netboot functionality
+   - Configures initrd with kexec support
+   - Sets up squashfs for Nix store
+
+2. **Our Extensions**:
+   - Add PlasmaCloud service packages
+   - Configure SSH for nixos-anywhere
+   - Include provisioning tools (disko, etc.)
+   - Customize kernel and modules
+
+3. **Build Outputs**:
+   - **bzImage**: Compressed Linux kernel
+   - **initrd**: Squashfs-compressed initial ramdisk containing:
+     - Minimal NixOS system
+     - Nix store with service packages
+     - Init scripts for booting
+
+### Size Optimization Strategies
+
+**Current Optimizations**:
+```nix
+documentation.enable = false;          # -50MB
+documentation.nixos.enable = false;    # -20MB
+i18n.supportedLocales = [ "en_US" ];   # -100MB
+```
+
+**Additional Strategies** (if needed):
+- Use `linuxPackages_hardened` (smaller kernel)
+- Remove unused kernel modules
+- Compress with xz instead of gzip
+- On-demand package fetching from HTTP substituter
+
+**Expected Sizes**:
+- **Control Plane**: ~250-350 MB (initrd)
+- **Worker**: ~150-250 MB (initrd)
+- **All-in-One**: ~300-400 MB (initrd)
+
+## Boot Flow
+
+### From PXE to Running System
+
+```
+1. PXE Boot
+   ├─ DHCP discovers boot server
+   ├─ TFTP loads iPXE binary
+   └─ iPXE executes boot script
+
+2. Netboot Download
+   ├─ HTTP downloads bzImage (~20MB)
+   ├─ HTTP downloads initrd (~200MB)
+   └─ kexec into NixOS installer
+
+3. NixOS Installer (in RAM)
+   ├─ Init system starts
+   ├─ Network configuration (DHCP)
+   ├─ SSH server starts
+   └─ Ready for nixos-anywhere
+
+4. Installation (nixos-anywhere)
+   ├─ SSH connection established
+   ├─ Disk partitioning (disko)
+   ├─ NixOS system installation
+   ├─ Secret injection
+   └─ Bootloader installation
+
+5. First Boot (from disk)
+   ├─ GRUB/systemd-boot loads
+   ├─ Services start (enabled)
+   ├─ Cluster join (if configured)
+   └─ Running PlasmaCloud node
+```
+
+## Customization Guide
+
+### Adding a New Service
+
+**Step 1**: Create NixOS module
+```nix
+# nix/modules/myservice.nix
+{ config, lib, pkgs, ... }:
+{
+  options.services.myservice = {
+    enable = lib.mkEnableOption "myservice";
+  };
+
+  config = lib.mkIf cfg.enable {
+    systemd.services.myservice = { ... };
+  };
+}
+```
+
+**Step 2**: Add to flake packages
+```nix
+# flake.nix
+packages.myservice-server = buildRustWorkspace { ... };
+```
+
+**Step 3**: Include in netboot profile
+```nix
+# nix/images/netboot-control-plane.nix
+environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
+  myservice-server
+];
+
+services.myservice = {
+  enable = lib.mkDefault false;
+};
+```
+
+### Creating a Custom Profile
+
+**Step 1**: Create new netboot configuration
+```nix
+# nix/images/netboot-custom.nix
+{ config, pkgs, lib, ... }:
+{
+  imports = [
+    ./netboot-base.nix
+    ../modules
+  ];
+
+  # Your customizations
+  environment.systemPackages = [ ... ];
+}
+```
+
+**Step 2**: Add to flake
+```nix
+# flake.nix
+nixosConfigurations.netboot-custom = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
+  system = "x86_64-linux";
+  modules = [ ./nix/images/netboot-custom.nix ];
+};
+```
+
+**Step 3**: Update build script
+```bash
+# build-images.sh
+profiles_to_build=("control-plane" "worker" "all-in-one" "custom")
+```
+
+## Security Model
+
+### Netboot Phase
+
+**Risk**: Netboot image has root SSH access enabled
+
+**Mitigations**:
+1. **Key-based authentication only** (no passwords)
+2. **Isolated provisioning VLAN**
+3. **MAC address whitelist in DHCP**
+4. **Firewall disabled only during install**
+
+### Post-Installation
+
+Services remain disabled until final configuration enables them:
+
+```nix
+# In installed system configuration
+services.chainfire.enable = true;  # Overrides lib.mkDefault false
+```
+
+### Secret Management
+
+Secrets are **NOT** embedded in netboot images:
+
+```nix
+# During nixos-anywhere installation:
+scp secrets/* root@target:/tmp/secrets/
+
+# Installed system references:
+services.chainfire.settings.tls = {
+  cert_path = "/etc/nixos/secrets/tls-cert.pem";
+};
+```
+
+## Performance Characteristics
+
+### Build Times
+
+- **First build**: 30-60 minutes (downloads all dependencies)
+- **Incremental builds**: 5-15 minutes (reuses cached artifacts)
+- **With local cache**: 2-5 minutes
+
+### Network Requirements
+
+- **Initial download**: ~2GB (nixpkgs + dependencies)
+- **Netboot download**: ~200-400MB per node
+- **Installation**: ~500MB-2GB (depending on services)
+
+### Hardware Requirements
+
+**Build Machine**:
+- CPU: 4+ cores recommended
+- RAM: 8GB minimum, 16GB recommended
+- Disk: 50GB free space
+- Network: Broadband connection
+
+**Target Machine**:
+- RAM: 4GB minimum for netboot (8GB+ for production)
+- Network: PXE boot support, DHCP
+- Disk: Depends on disko configuration
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+### Verification Steps
+
+1. **Syntax Validation**:
+   ```bash
+   nix flake check
+   ```
+
+2. **Build Test**:
+   ```bash
+   ./build-images.sh --profile control-plane
+   ```
+
+3. **Artifact Verification**:
+   ```bash
+   file artifacts/control-plane/bzImage  # Should be Linux kernel
+   file artifacts/control-plane/initrd   # Should be compressed data
+   ```
+
+4. **PXE Boot Test**:
+   - Boot VM from netboot image
+   - Verify SSH access
+   - Check available tools (disko, parted, etc.)
+
+5. **Installation Test**:
+   - Run nixos-anywhere on test target
+   - Verify successful installation
+   - Check service availability
+
+## Troubleshooting Matrix
+
+| Symptom | Possible Cause | Solution |
+|---------|---------------|----------|
+| Build fails | Missing flakes | Enable experimental-features |
+| Large initrd | Too many packages | Remove unused packages |
+| SSH fails | Wrong SSH key | Update authorized_keys |
+| Boot hangs | Wrong kernel params | Check console= settings |
+| No network | DHCP issues | Verify useDHCP = true |
+| Service missing | Package not built | Check flake overlay |
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+### Planned Improvements
+
+1. **Image Variants**:
+   - Minimal installer (no services)
+   - Debug variant (with extra tools)
+   - Rescue mode (for recovery)
+
+2. **Build Optimizations**:
+   - Parallel profile builds
+   - Incremental rebuild detection
+   - Binary cache integration
+
+3. **Security Enhancements**:
+   - Per-node SSH keys
+   - TPM-based secrets
+   - Measured boot support
+
+4. **Monitoring**:
+   - Build metrics collection
+   - Size trend tracking
+   - Performance benchmarking

+# PlasmaCloud NixOS Image Builder
+
+This directory contains tools and configurations for building bootable NixOS netboot images for bare-metal provisioning of PlasmaCloud infrastructure.
+
+## Overview
+
+The NixOS Image Builder generates netboot images (kernel + initrd) that can be served via PXE/iPXE to provision bare-metal servers with PlasmaCloud services. These images integrate with the T024 NixOS service modules and the T032.S2 PXE boot infrastructure.
+
+## Architecture
+
+The image builder produces three deployment profiles:
+
+### 1. Control Plane (`netboot-control-plane`)
+Full control plane deployment with all 8 PlasmaCloud services:
+- **Chainfire**: Distributed configuration and coordination
+- **FlareDB**: Time-series metrics and events database
+- **IAM**: Identity and access management
+- **PlasmaVMC**: Virtual machine control plane
+- **NovaNET**: Software-defined networking controller
+- **FlashDNS**: High-performance DNS server
+- **FiberLB**: Layer 4/7 load balancer
+- **LightningStor**: Distributed block storage
+- **K8sHost**: Kubernetes hosting component
+
+**Use Cases**:
+- Multi-node production clusters (3+ control plane nodes)
+- High-availability deployments
+- Separation of control and data planes
+
+### 2. Worker (`netboot-worker`)
+Compute-focused deployment for running tenant workloads:
+- **PlasmaVMC**: Virtual machine control plane
+- **NovaNET**: Software-defined networking
+
+**Use Cases**:
+- Worker nodes in multi-node clusters
+- Dedicated compute capacity
+- Scalable VM hosting
+
+### 3. All-in-One (`netboot-all-in-one`)
+Single-node deployment with all 8 services:
+- All services from Control Plane profile
+- Optimized for single-node operation
+
+**Use Cases**:
+- Development/testing environments
+- Small deployments (1-3 nodes)
+- Edge locations
+- Proof-of-concept installations
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+### Build Environment
+
+- **NixOS** or **Nix package manager** installed
+- **Flakes** enabled in Nix configuration
+- **Git** access to PlasmaCloud repository
+- **Sufficient disk space**: ~10GB for build artifacts
+
+### Enable Nix Flakes
+
+If not already enabled, add to `/etc/nix/nix.conf` or `~/.config/nix/nix.conf`:
+
+```
+experimental-features = nix-command flakes
+```
+
+### Build Dependencies
+
+The build process automatically handles all dependencies, but ensure you have:
+- Working internet connection (for Nix binary cache)
+- ~4GB RAM minimum
+- ~10GB free disk space
+
+## Build Instructions
+
+### Quick Start
+
+Build all profiles:
+
+```bash
+cd /home/centra/cloud/baremetal/image-builder
+./build-images.sh
+```
+
+Build a specific profile:
+
+```bash
+# Control plane only
+./build-images.sh --profile control-plane
+
+# Worker nodes only
+./build-images.sh --profile worker
+
+# All-in-one deployment
+./build-images.sh --profile all-in-one
+```
+
+Custom output directory:
+
+```bash
+./build-images.sh --output-dir /srv/pxe/images
+```
+
+### Build Output
+
+Each profile generates:
+- `bzImage` - Linux kernel (~10-30 MB)
+- `initrd` - Initial ramdisk (~100-300 MB)
+- `netboot.ipxe` - iPXE boot script
+- `build.log` - Build log for troubleshooting
+
+Artifacts are placed in:
+```
+./artifacts/
+├── control-plane/
+│   ├── bzImage
+│   ├── initrd

+
+### Manual Build Commands
+
+You can also build images directly with Nix:
+
+```bash
+# Build initrd
+nix build .#nixosConfigurations.netboot-control-plane.config.system.build.netbootRamdisk
+
+# Build kernel
+nix build .#nixosConfigurations.netboot-control-plane.config.system.build.kernel
+
+# Access artifacts
+ls -lh result/
+```
+
+## Deployment
+
+### Integration with PXE Server (T032.S2)
+
+The build script automatically copies artifacts to the PXE server directory if it exists:
+
+```
+chainfire/baremetal/pxe-server/assets/nixos/
+├── control-plane/
+├── worker/
+├── all-in-one/
+├── bzImage-control-plane -> control-plane/bzImage
+├── initrd-control-plane -> control-plane/initrd
+├── bzImage-worker -> worker/bzImage
+└── initrd-worker -> worker/initrd
+```
+
+### Manual Deployment
+
+Copy artifacts to your PXE/HTTP server:
+
+```bash
+# Example: Deploy to nginx serving directory
+sudo cp -r ./artifacts/control-plane /srv/pxe/nixos/
+sudo cp -r ./artifacts/worker /srv/pxe/nixos/
+sudo cp -r ./artifacts/all-in-one /srv/pxe/nixos/
+```
+
+### iPXE Boot Configuration
+
+Reference the images in your iPXE boot script:
+
+```ipxe
+#!ipxe
+
+set boot-server 10.0.0.2:8080
+
+:control-plane
+kernel http://${boot-server}/nixos/control-plane/bzImage init=/nix/store/*/init console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 loglevel=4
+initrd http://${boot-server}/nixos/control-plane/initrd
+boot
+
+:worker
+kernel http://${boot-server}/nixos/worker/bzImage init=/nix/store/*/init console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 loglevel=4
+initrd http://${boot-server}/nixos/worker/initrd
+boot
+```
+
+## Customization
+
+### Adding Services
+
+To add a service to a profile, edit the corresponding configuration:
+
+```nix
+# nix/images/netboot-control-plane.nix
+environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
+  chainfire-server
+  flaredb-server
+  # ... existing services ...
+  my-custom-service  # Add your service
+];
+```
+
+### Custom Kernel Configuration
+
+Modify `nix/images/netboot-base.nix`:
+
+```nix
+boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_6_6;  # Specific kernel version
+boot.kernelModules = [ "my-driver" ];           # Additional modules
+boot.kernelParams = [ "my-param=value" ];       # Additional kernel parameters
+```
+
+### Additional Packages
+
+Add packages to the netboot environment:
+
+```nix
+# nix/images/netboot-base.nix
+environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
+  # ... existing packages ...
+
+  # Your additions
+  python3
+  nodejs
+  custom-tool
+];
+```
+
+### Hardware-Specific Configuration
+
+See `examples/hardware-specific.nix` for hardware-specific customizations.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Build Failures
+
+**Symptom**: Build fails with Nix errors
+
+**Solutions**:
+1. Check build log: `cat artifacts/PROFILE/build.log`
+2. Verify Nix flakes are enabled
+3. Update nixpkgs: `nix flake update`
+4. Clear Nix store cache: `nix-collect-garbage -d`
+
+### Missing Service Packages
+
+**Symptom**: Error: "package not found"
+
+**Solutions**:
+1. Verify service is built: `nix build .#chainfire-server`
+2. Check flake overlay: `nix flake show`
+3. Rebuild all packages: `nix build .#default`
+
+### Image Too Large
+
+**Symptom**: Initrd > 500 MB
+
+**Solutions**:
+1. Remove unnecessary packages from `environment.systemPackages`
+2. Disable documentation (already done in base config)
+3. Use minimal kernel: `boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_latest_hardened`
+
+### PXE Boot Fails
+
+**Symptom**: Server fails to boot netboot image
+
+**Solutions**:
+1. Verify artifacts are accessible via HTTP
+2. Check iPXE script syntax
+3. Verify kernel parameters in boot script
+4. Check serial console output (ttyS0)
+5. Ensure DHCP provides correct boot server IP
+
+### SSH Access Issues
+
+**Symptom**: Cannot SSH to netboot installer
+
+**Solutions**:
+1. Replace example SSH key in `nix/images/netboot-base.nix`
+2. Verify network connectivity (DHCP, firewall)
+3. Check SSH service is running: `systemctl status sshd`
+
+## Configuration Reference
+
+### Service Modules (T024 Integration)
+
+All netboot profiles import PlasmaCloud service modules from `nix/modules/`:
+
+- `chainfire.nix` - Chainfire configuration
+- `flaredb.nix` - FlareDB configuration
+- `iam.nix` - IAM configuration
+- `plasmavmc.nix` - PlasmaVMC configuration
+- `novanet.nix` - NovaNET configuration
+- `flashdns.nix` - FlashDNS configuration
+- `fiberlb.nix` - FiberLB configuration
+- `lightningstor.nix` - LightningStor configuration
+- `k8shost.nix` - K8sHost configuration
+
+Services are **disabled by default** in netboot images and enabled in final installed configurations.
+
+### Netboot Base Configuration
+
+Located at `nix/images/netboot-base.nix`, provides:
+
+- SSH server with root access (key-based)
+- Generic kernel with broad hardware support
+- Disk management tools (disko, parted, cryptsetup, lvm2)
+- Network tools (iproute2, curl, tcpdump)
+- Serial console support (ttyS0, tty0)
+- DHCP networking
+- Minimal system configuration
+
+### Profile Configurations
+
+- `nix/images/netboot-control-plane.nix` - All 8 services
+- `nix/images/netboot-worker.nix` - Compute services (PlasmaVMC, NovaNET)
+- `nix/images/netboot-all-in-one.nix` - All services for single-node
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### SSH Keys
+
+**IMPORTANT**: The default SSH key in `netboot-base.nix` is an example placeholder. You MUST replace it with your actual provisioning key:
+
+```nix
+users.users.root.openssh.authorizedKeys.keys = [
+  "ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3Nza... your-provisioning-key@host"
+];
+```
+
+Generate a new key:
+
+```bash
+ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "provisioning@plasmacloud"
+```
+
+### Network Security
+
+- Netboot images have **firewall disabled** for installation phase
+- Use isolated provisioning VLAN for PXE boot
+- Implement MAC address whitelist in DHCP
+- Enable firewall in final installed configurations
+
+### Secrets Management
+
+- Do NOT embed secrets in netboot images
+- Use nixos-anywhere to inject secrets during installation
+- Store secrets in `/etc/nixos/secrets/` on installed systems
+- Use proper file permissions (0400 for keys)
+
+## Next Steps
+
+After building images:
+
+1. **Deploy to PXE Server**: Copy artifacts to HTTP server
+2. **Configure DHCP/iPXE**: Set up boot infrastructure (see T032.S2)
+3. **Prepare Node Configurations**: Create per-node configs for nixos-anywhere
+4. **Test Boot Process**: Verify PXE boot on test hardware
+5. **Run nixos-anywhere**: Install NixOS on target machines

+# QEMU Socket Networking VM Cluster
+
+## Architecture
+
+**Topology:** 4 QEMU VMs connected via multicast socket networking (230.0.0.1:1234)
+
+**VMs:**
+1. **pxe-server** (192.168.100.1) - Provides DHCP/TFTP/HTTP services
+2. **node01** (192.168.100.11) - Cluster node
+3. **node02** (192.168.100.12) - Cluster node
+4. **node03** (192.168.100.13) - Cluster node
+
+**Network:** All VMs share L2 segment via QEMU multicast socket (no root privileges required)
+
+## Files
+
+- `node01.qcow2`, `node02.qcow2`, `node03.qcow2` - 100GB cluster node disks
+- `pxe-server.qcow2` - 20GB PXE server disk
+- `launch-pxe-server.sh` - PXE server startup script
+- `launch-node01.sh`, `launch-node02.sh`, `launch-node03.sh` - Node startup scripts
+- `pxe-server/` - PXE server configuration files
+
+## MACs
+
+- pxe-server: 52:54:00:00:00:01
+- node01: 52:54:00:00:01:01
+- node02: 52:54:00:00:01:02
+- node03: 52:54:00:00:01:03
+
+## Provisioning Flow
+
+1. Start PXE server VM (Alpine Linux with dnsmasq)
+2. Configure DHCP/TFTP/HTTP services
+3. Deploy NixOS netboot artifacts
+4. Start node VMs with PXE boot enabled
+5. Nodes PXE boot and provision via nixos-anywhere

+## Dependencies on Other Tasks
+
+### Prerequisites
+None - this is the first step in T032 (Bare-Metal Provisioning)
+
+### Next Steps
+- **T032.S3**: Image Builder - Generate NixOS netboot images for each profile
+- **T032.S4**: Provisioning Orchestrator - API-driven node lifecycle management
+
+### Integration Points
+- **FlareDB**: Node inventory and state storage
+- **IAM**: Authentication for provisioning API
+- **PlasmaVMC**: VM provisioning on bare-metal nodes
+- **K8sHost**: Kubernetes node integration
+
+## Testing Status
+
+### What Can Be Tested Now
+✅ Directory structure creation  
+✅ Configuration file syntax validation  
+✅ Service startup (DHCP, TFTP, HTTP)  
+✅ Firewall rules  
+✅ Boot script download  
+✅ iPXE bootloader download/build  
+
+### What Requires T032.S3
+⏳ Actual bare-metal provisioning (needs NixOS images)  
+⏳ End-to-end boot flow (needs kernel/initrd)  
+⏳ Profile-specific deployments (needs profile configs)  
+
+## Quick Start Commands
+
+```bash
+# Install and setup
+cd baremetal/pxe-server
+sudo ./setup.sh --install --download --validate
+
+# Configure NixOS (edit configuration.nix)
+imports = [ ./baremetal/pxe-server/nixos-module.nix ];
+services.centra-pxe-server.enable = true;
+# ... (see QUICKSTART.md for full config)
+
+# Deploy
+sudo nixos-rebuild switch
+
+# Test services
+sudo ./setup.sh --test
+
+# Boot a server
+# - Configure BIOS for PXE boot
+# - Connect to network
+# - Power on
+```
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+1. **No NixOS images yet**: T032.S3 will generate the actual boot images
+2. **Single interface**: Module supports one network interface (can be extended)
+3. **No HA built-in**: DHCP failover can be configured manually (example provided)
+4. **No authentication**: Provisioning API will add auth in T032.S4
+
+## Configuration Examples Provided
+
+1. Basic single-subnet PXE server
+2. PXE server with MAC-based auto-selection
+3. Custom DHCP configuration
+4. Multi-homed server (multiple interfaces)
+5. High-availability with failover
+6. HTTPS boot (secure boot)
+7. Development/testing configuration
+8. Production with monitoring
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- DHCP is unauthenticated (normal for PXE)
+- TFTP is unencrypted (normal for PXE)
+- HTTP can be upgraded to HTTPS (documented)
+- iPXE supports secure boot with embedded certificates (build from source)
+- Network should be isolated (provisioning VLAN recommended)
+- Firewall rules limit exposure (only necessary ports)
+
+## Troubleshooting Resources
+
+Comprehensive troubleshooting section in README.md covers:
+- DHCP discovery issues
+- TFTP timeout problems
+- HTTP download failures
+- Boot script errors
+- Serial console debugging
+- Common error messages
+- Service health checks
+- Network connectivity tests
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+- **Concurrent boots**: ~500 MB per node (kernel + initrd)
+- **Recommended**: 1 Gbps link for PXE server
+- **10 concurrent boots**: ~5 Gbps burst (stagger or use 10 Gbps)
+- **Disk space**: 5-10 GB recommended (multiple profiles + versions)
+

+# PXE Server Quick Start Guide
+
+This is a condensed guide for getting the PXE boot server running quickly.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- NixOS server
+- Root access
+- Network connectivity to bare-metal servers
+
+## 5-Minute Setup
+
+### 1. Run Setup Script
+
+```bash
+cd baremetal/pxe-server
+sudo ./setup.sh --install --download --validate
+```
+
+### 2. Configure NixOS
+
+Add to `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix`:
+
+```nix
+imports = [ /path/to/baremetal/pxe-server/nixos-module.nix ];
+
+services.centra-pxe-server = {
+  enable = true;
+  interface = "eth0";               # YOUR NETWORK INTERFACE
+  serverAddress = "10.0.100.10";   # YOUR PXE SERVER IP
+
+  dhcp = {
+    subnet = "10.0.100.0";         # YOUR SUBNET
+    netmask = "255.255.255.0";
+    broadcast = "10.0.100.255";
+    range = {
+      start = "10.0.100.100";      # DHCP RANGE START
+      end = "10.0.100.200";        # DHCP RANGE END
+    };
+    router = "10.0.100.1";         # YOUR GATEWAY
+  };
+};
+```
+
+### 3. Deploy
+
+```bash
+sudo nixos-rebuild switch
+```
+
+### 4. Verify
+
+```bash
+sudo ./setup.sh --test
+```
+
+You should see:
+- TFTP server running
+- HTTP server running
+- DHCP server running
+
+### 5. Boot a Server
+
+1. Configure server BIOS for PXE boot
+2. Connect to same network
+3. Power on
+4. Watch for boot menu
+
+## Adding Nodes
+
+### Quick Add (No Auto-Selection)
+
+Just boot the server and select profile from menu.
+
+### With Auto-Selection
+
+1. Get MAC address from server
+2. Edit `ipxe/boot.ipxe`, add line:
+   ```ipxe
+   iseq ${mac} AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF && set profile worker && set hostname worker-05 && goto boot ||
+   ```
+3. Optionally add to `dhcp/dhcpd.conf`:
+   ```conf
+   host worker-05 {
+       hardware ethernet AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF;
+       fixed-address 10.0.100.65;
+       option host-name "worker-05";
+   }
+   ```
+4. Restart DHCP: `sudo systemctl restart dhcpd4`
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Server doesn't get IP
+
+```bash
+sudo tcpdump -i eth0 port 67 or port 68
+sudo journalctl -u dhcpd4 -f
+```
+
+Check:
+- DHCP server running on correct interface
+- Network connectivity
+- Firewall allows UDP 67/68
+
+### Server gets IP but no bootloader
+
+```bash
+sudo tcpdump -i eth0 port 69
+sudo journalctl -u atftpd -f
+```
+
+Check:
+- TFTP server running
+- Bootloaders exist: `ls /var/lib/tftpboot/`
+- Firewall allows UDP 69
+
+### iPXE loads but can't get boot script
+
+```bash
+curl http://localhost/boot/ipxe/boot.ipxe
+sudo tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log
+```
+
+Check:
+- Nginx running
+- boot.ipxe exists: `ls /var/lib/pxe-boot/ipxe/`
+- Firewall allows TCP 80
+
+### Boot script loads but can't get kernel
+
+This is expected until T032.S3 (Image Builder) is complete.
+
+Check: `ls /var/lib/pxe-boot/nixos/`
+
+Should have:
+- bzImage
+- initrd
+
+These will be generated by the image builder.
+
+## Common Commands
+
+```bash
+# Check all services
+sudo systemctl status dhcpd4 atftpd nginx
+
+# View logs
+sudo journalctl -u dhcpd4 -u atftpd -u nginx -f
+
+# Test connectivity
+curl http://localhost/health
+tftp localhost -c get undionly.kpxe /tmp/test.kpxe
+
+# Restart services
+sudo systemctl restart dhcpd4 atftpd nginx
+
+# Check firewall
+sudo iptables -L -n | grep -E "67|68|69|80"
+```
+
+## Boot Profiles
+
+- **control-plane**: All services (FlareDB, IAM, PlasmaVMC, K8sHost, etc.)
+- **worker**: Compute services (K8sHost, PlasmaVMC, ChainFire)
+- **all-in-one**: Everything on one node (testing/homelab)
+
+## Next Steps
+
+- Add more nodes (see "Adding Nodes" above)
+- Wait for T032.S3 to generate NixOS boot images
+- Configure monitoring for boot activity
+- Set up DHCP relay for multi-segment networks

+### 5. NixOS Service Module
+
+- **File**: `nixos-module.nix`
+- **Purpose**: Declarative NixOS configuration for all services
+- **Features**:
+  - Single configuration file for entire stack
+  - Firewall rules auto-configured
+  - Systemd service dependencies managed
+  - Directory structure auto-created
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- NixOS server with network connectivity
+- Network interface on the same subnet as bare-metal servers
+- Sufficient disk space (5-10 GB for boot images)
+
+### Installation Steps
+
+1. **Clone this repository** (or copy `baremetal/pxe-server/` to your NixOS system)
+
+2. **Run the setup script**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo ./setup.sh --install --download --validate
+   ```
+
+   This will:
+   - Create directory structure at `/var/lib/pxe-boot`
+   - Download iPXE bootloaders from boot.ipxe.org
+   - Install boot scripts
+   - Validate configurations
+
+3. **Configure network settings**:
+
+   Edit `nixos-module.nix` or create a NixOS configuration:
+
+   ```nix
+   # /etc/nixos/configuration.nix
+
+   imports = [
+     /path/to/baremetal/pxe-server/nixos-module.nix
+   ];
+
+   services.centra-pxe-server = {
+     enable = true;
+     interface = "eth0";  # Your network interface
+     serverAddress = "10.0.100.10";  # PXE server IP
+
+     dhcp = {
+       subnet = "10.0.100.0";
+       netmask = "255.255.255.0";
+       broadcast = "10.0.100.255";
+       range = {
+         start = "10.0.100.100";
+         end = "10.0.100.200";
+       };
+       router = "10.0.100.1";
+     };
+
+     # Optional: Define known nodes with MAC addresses
+     nodes = {
+       "52:54:00:12:34:56" = {
+         profile = "control-plane";
+         hostname = "control-plane-01";
+         ipAddress = "10.0.100.50";
+       };
+     };
+   };
+   ```
+
+4. **Deploy NixOS configuration**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo nixos-rebuild switch
+   ```
+
+5. **Verify services are running**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo ./setup.sh --test
+   ```
+
+6. **Add NixOS boot images** (will be provided by T032.S3):
+   ```bash
+   # Placeholder - actual images will be built by image builder
+   # For testing, you can use any NixOS netboot image
+   sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/pxe-boot/nixos
+   # Copy bzImage and initrd to /var/lib/pxe-boot/nixos/
+   ```
+
+7. **Boot a bare-metal server**:
+   - Configure server BIOS to boot from network (PXE)
+   - Connect to same network segment
+   - Power on server
+   - Watch for DHCP discovery and iPXE boot menu
+
+## Detailed Setup
+
+### Option 1: NixOS Module (Recommended)
+
+The NixOS module provides a declarative way to configure the entire PXE server stack.
+
+**Advantages**:
+- Single configuration file
+- Automatic service dependencies
+- Rollback capability
+- Integration with NixOS firewall
+
+**Configuration Example**:
+
+See the NixOS configuration example in [Quick Start](#quick-start).
+
+### Option 2: Manual Installation
+
+For non-NixOS systems or manual setup:
+
+1. **Install required packages**:
+   ```bash
+   # Debian/Ubuntu
+   apt-get install isc-dhcp-server atftpd nginx curl
+
+   # RHEL/CentOS
+   yum install dhcp tftp-server nginx curl
+   ```
+
+2. **Run setup script**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo ./setup.sh --install --download
+   ```
+
+3. **Copy configuration files**:
+   ```bash
+   # DHCP configuration
+   sudo cp dhcp/dhcpd.conf /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
+
+   # Edit to match your network
+   sudo vim /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
+
+   # Nginx configuration
+   sudo cp http/nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/pxe-boot
+   sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/pxe-boot /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
+   ```
+
+4. **Start services**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl enable --now isc-dhcp-server
+   sudo systemctl enable --now atftpd
+   sudo systemctl enable --now nginx
+   ```
+
+5. **Configure firewall**:
+   ```bash
+   # UFW (Ubuntu)
+   sudo ufw allow 67/udp    # DHCP
+   sudo ufw allow 68/udp    # DHCP
+   sudo ufw allow 69/udp    # TFTP
+   sudo ufw allow 80/tcp    # HTTP
+
+   # firewalld (RHEL)
+   sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=dhcp
+   sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=tftp
+   sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=http
+   sudo firewall-cmd --reload
+   ```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### DHCP Configuration
+
+The DHCP server configuration is in `dhcp/dhcpd.conf`. Key sections:
+
+**Network Settings**:
+```conf
+subnet 10.0.100.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
+    range 10.0.100.100 10.0.100.200;
+    option routers 10.0.100.1;
+    option domain-name-servers 10.0.100.1, 8.8.8.8;
+    next-server 10.0.100.10;  # PXE server IP
+    # ...
+}
+```
+
+**Boot File Selection** (automatic BIOS/UEFI detection):
+```conf
+if exists user-class and option user-class = "iPXE" {
+    filename "http://10.0.100.10/boot/ipxe/boot.ipxe";
+} elsif option architecture-type = 00:00 {
+    filename "undionly.kpxe";  # BIOS
+} elsif option architecture-type = 00:07 {
+    filename "ipxe.efi";  # UEFI x86-64
+}
+```
+
+**Host-Specific Configuration**:
+```conf
+host control-plane-01 {
+    hardware ethernet 52:54:00:12:34:56;
+    fixed-address 10.0.100.50;
+    option host-name "control-plane-01";
+}
+```
+
+### iPXE Boot Script
+
+The main boot script is `ipxe/boot.ipxe`. It provides:
+
+1. **MAC-based automatic selection**:
+   ```ipxe
+   iseq ${mac} 52:54:00:12:34:56 && set profile control-plane && goto boot ||
+   ```
+
+2. **Interactive menu** (if no MAC match):
+   ```ipxe
+   :menu
+   menu Centra Cloud - Bare-Metal Provisioning
+   item control-plane    1. Control Plane Node (All Services)
+   item worker           2. Worker Node (Compute Services)
+   item all-in-one       3. All-in-One Node (Testing/Homelab)
+   ```
+
+3. **Kernel parameters**:
+   ```ipxe
+   set kernel-params centra.profile=${profile}
+   set kernel-params ${kernel-params} centra.hostname=${hostname}
+   set kernel-params ${kernel-params} console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8
+   ```
+
+### Adding New Nodes
+
+To add a new node to the infrastructure:
+
+1. **Get the MAC address** from the server (check BIOS or network card label)
+
+2. **Add to MAC mappings** (`ipxe/mac-mappings.txt`):
+   ```
+   52:54:00:12:34:5d    worker    worker-04
+   ```
+
+3. **Update boot script** (`ipxe/boot.ipxe`):
+   ```ipxe
+   iseq ${mac} 52:54:00:12:34:5d && set profile worker && set hostname worker-04 && goto boot ||
+   ```
+
+4. **Add DHCP host entry** (`dhcp/dhcpd.conf`):
+   ```conf
+   host worker-04 {
+       hardware ethernet 52:54:00:12:34:5d;
+       fixed-address 10.0.100.64;
+       option host-name "worker-04";
+   }
+   ```
+
+5. **Restart DHCP service**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl restart dhcpd4
+   ```
+

+
+## Network Requirements
+
+### Network Topology
+
+The PXE server must be on the same network segment as the bare-metal servers, or you must configure DHCP relay.
+
+**Same Segment** (recommended for initial setup):
+```
+┌──────────────┐         ┌──────────────────┐
+│  PXE Server  │         │  Bare-Metal Srv  │
+│ 10.0.100.10  │◄────────┤  (DHCP client)   │
+└──────────────┘  L2 SW  └──────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Different Segments** (requires DHCP relay):
+```
+┌──────────────┐         ┌──────────┐         ┌──────────────────┐
+│  PXE Server  │         │  Router  │         │  Bare-Metal Srv  │
+│ 10.0.100.10  │◄────────┤  (relay) │◄────────┤  (DHCP client)   │
+└──────────────┘         └──────────┘         └──────────────────┘
+   Segment A              ip helper           Segment B
+```
+
+### DHCP Relay Configuration
+
+If your PXE server is on a different network segment:
+
+**Cisco IOS**:
+```
+interface vlan 100
+  ip helper-address 10.0.100.10
+```
+
+**Linux (dhcp-helper)**:
+```bash
+apt-get install dhcp-helper
+# Edit /etc/default/dhcp-helper
+DHCPHELPER_OPTS="-s 10.0.100.10"
+systemctl restart dhcp-helper
+```
+
+**Linux (dhcrelay)**:
+```bash
+apt-get install isc-dhcp-relay
+dhcrelay -i eth0 -i eth1 10.0.100.10
+```
+
+### Firewall Rules
+
+The following ports must be open on the PXE server:
+
+| Port | Protocol | Service | Direction | Description |
+|------|----------|---------|-----------|-------------|
+| 67   | UDP      | DHCP    | Inbound   | DHCP server |
+| 68   | UDP      | DHCP    | Outbound  | DHCP client responses |
+| 69   | UDP      | TFTP    | Inbound   | TFTP bootloader downloads |
+| 80   | TCP      | HTTP    | Inbound   | iPXE scripts and boot images |
+| 443  | TCP      | HTTPS   | Inbound   | Optional: secure boot images |
+
+### Network Bandwidth
+
+Estimated bandwidth requirements:
+
+- Per-node boot: ~500 MB download (kernel + initrd)
+- Concurrent boots: Multiply by number of simultaneous boots
+- Recommended: 1 Gbps link for PXE server
+
+Example: Booting 10 nodes simultaneously requires ~5 Gbps throughput burst, so stagger boots or use 10 Gbps link.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### DHCP Issues
+
+**Problem**: Server doesn't get IP address
+
+**Diagnosis**:
+```bash
+# On PXE server, monitor DHCP requests
+sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -n port 67 or port 68
+
+# Check DHCP server logs
+sudo journalctl -u dhcpd4 -f
+
+# Verify DHCP server is running
+sudo systemctl status dhcpd4
+```
+
+**Common causes**:
+- DHCP server not running on correct interface
+- Firewall blocking UDP 67/68
+- Network cable/switch issue
+- DHCP range exhausted
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# Check interface configuration
+ip addr show
+
+# Verify DHCP config syntax
+sudo dhcpd -t -cf /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
+
+# Check firewall
+sudo iptables -L -n | grep -E "67|68"
+
+# Restart DHCP server
+sudo systemctl restart dhcpd4
+```
+
+### TFTP Issues
+
+**Problem**: PXE client gets IP but fails to download bootloader
+
+**Diagnosis**:
+```bash
+# Monitor TFTP requests
+sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -n port 69
+
+# Check TFTP server logs
+sudo journalctl -u atftpd -f
+
+# Test TFTP locally
+tftp localhost -c get undionly.kpxe /tmp/test.kpxe
+```
+
+**Common causes**:
+- TFTP server not running
+- Bootloader files missing
+- Permissions incorrect
+- Firewall blocking UDP 69
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# Check files exist
+ls -la /var/lib/tftpboot/
+
+# Fix permissions
+sudo chmod 644 /var/lib/tftpboot/*.{kpxe,efi}
+
+# Restart TFTP server
+sudo systemctl restart atftpd
+
+# Check firewall
+sudo iptables -L -n | grep 69
+```
+
+### HTTP Issues
+
+**Problem**: iPXE loads but can't download boot script or kernel
+
+**Diagnosis**:
+```bash
+# Monitor HTTP requests
+sudo tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log
+
+# Test HTTP locally
+curl -v http://localhost/boot/ipxe/boot.ipxe
+curl -v http://localhost/health
+
+# Check nginx status
+sudo systemctl status nginx
+```
+
+**Common causes**:
+- Nginx not running
+- Boot files missing
+- Permissions incorrect
+- Firewall blocking TCP 80
+- Wrong server IP in boot.ipxe
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# Check nginx config
+sudo nginx -t
+
+# Verify files exist
+ls -la /var/lib/pxe-boot/ipxe/
+ls -la /var/lib/pxe-boot/nixos/
+
+# Fix permissions
+sudo chown -R nginx:nginx /var/lib/pxe-boot
+sudo chmod -R 755 /var/lib/pxe-boot
+
+# Restart nginx
+sudo systemctl restart nginx
+```
+
+### Boot Script Issues
+
+**Problem**: Boot menu appears but fails to load kernel
+
+**Diagnosis**:
+- Check iPXE error messages on console
+- Verify URLs in boot.ipxe match actual paths
+- Test kernel download manually:
+  ```bash
+  curl -I http://10.0.100.10/boot/nixos/bzImage
+  ```
+
+**Common causes**:
+- NixOS boot images not deployed yet (normal for T032.S2)
+- Wrong paths in boot.ipxe
+- Files too large (check disk space)
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# Wait for T032.S3 (Image Builder) to generate boot images
+# OR manually place NixOS netboot images:
+sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/pxe-boot/nixos
+# Copy bzImage and initrd from NixOS netboot
+```
+
+### Serial Console Debugging
+
+For remote debugging without physical access:
+
+1. **Enable serial console in BIOS**:
+   - Configure COM1/ttyS0 at 115200 baud
+   - Enable console redirection
+
+2. **Connect via IPMI SOL** (if available):
+   ```bash
+   ipmitool -I lanplus -H <bmc-ip> -U admin sol activate
+   ```
+
+3. **Watch boot process**:
+   - DHCP discovery messages
+   - TFTP download progress
+   - iPXE boot menu
+   - Kernel boot messages
+
+4. **Kernel parameters include serial console**:
+   ```
+   console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8
+   ```
+
+### Common Error Messages
+
+| Error | Cause | Solution |
+|-------|-------|----------|
+| `PXE-E51: No DHCP or proxyDHCP offers were received` | DHCP server not responding | Check DHCP server running, network connectivity |
+| `PXE-E53: No boot filename received` | DHCP not providing filename | Check dhcpd.conf has `filename` option |
+| `PXE-E32: TFTP open timeout` | TFTP server not responding | Check TFTP server running, firewall rules |
+| `Not found: /boot/ipxe/boot.ipxe` | HTTP 404 error | Check file exists, nginx config, permissions |
+| `Could not boot: Exec format error` | Corrupted boot file | Re-download/rebuild bootloader |
+
+## Advanced Topics
+
+### Building iPXE from Source
+
+For production deployments, building iPXE from source provides:
+- Custom branding
+- Embedded certificates for HTTPS
+- Optimized size
+- Security hardening
+
+**Build instructions**:
+```bash
+sudo ./setup.sh --build-ipxe
+```
+
+Or manually:
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/ipxe/ipxe.git
+cd ipxe/src
+
+# BIOS bootloader
+make bin/undionly.kpxe
+
+# UEFI bootloader
+make bin-x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi
+
+# Copy to PXE server
+sudo cp bin/undionly.kpxe /var/lib/pxe-boot/ipxe/
+sudo cp bin-x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi /var/lib/pxe-boot/ipxe/
+```
+
+### HTTPS Boot (Secure Boot)
+
+For enhanced security, serve boot images over HTTPS:
+
+1. **Generate SSL certificate**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 \
+     -keyout /etc/ssl/private/pxe-server.key \
+     -out /etc/ssl/certs/pxe-server.crt
+   ```
+
+2. **Configure nginx for HTTPS** (uncomment HTTPS block in `http/nginx.conf`)
+
+3. **Update boot.ipxe** to use `https://` URLs
+
+4. **Rebuild iPXE with embedded certificate** (for secure boot without prompts)
+
+### Multiple NixOS Versions
+
+To support multiple NixOS versions for testing/rollback:
+
+```
+/var/lib/pxe-boot/nixos/
+├── 24.05/
+│   ├── bzImage
+│   └── initrd
+├── 24.11/
+│   ├── bzImage
+│   └── initrd
+└── latest -> 24.11/  # Symlink to current version
+```
+
+Update `boot.ipxe` to use `/boot/nixos/latest/bzImage` or add menu items for version selection.
+
+### Integration with BMC/IPMI
+
+For fully automated provisioning:
+
+1. **Discover new hardware** via IPMI/Redfish API
+2. **Configure PXE boot** via IPMI:
+   ```bash
+   ipmitool -I lanplus -H <bmc-ip> -U admin chassis bootdev pxe options=persistent
+   ```
+3. **Power on server**:
+   ```bash
+   ipmitool -I lanplus -H <bmc-ip> -U admin power on
+   ```
+4. **Monitor via SOL** (serial-over-LAN)
+
+### Monitoring and Metrics
+
+Track PXE boot activity:
+
+1. **DHCP leases**:
+   ```bash
+   cat /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases
+   ```
+
+2. **HTTP access logs**:
+   ```bash
+   sudo tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E "boot.ipxe|bzImage|initrd"
+   ```
+
+3. **Prometheus metrics** (if nginx-module-vts installed):
+   - Boot file download counts
+   - Bandwidth usage
+   - Response times
+
+4. **Custom metrics endpoint**:
+   - Parse nginx access logs
+   - Count boots per profile
+   - Alert on failed boots

+# If your DHCP server is on a different network segment than the PXE clients,

+#
+# For Cisco IOS:
+#   interface vlan 100
+#     ip helper-address 10.0.100.10
+#
+# For Linux (using dhcp-helper or dhcrelay):
+#   dhcrelay -i eth0 -i eth1 10.0.100.10
+#
+# Ensure UDP ports 67/68 are allowed through firewalls between segments.

+#
+# 2. For MAC-based auto-selection, add nodes to the `nodes` attribute
+#
+# 3. DHCP failover requires configuration on both primary and secondary servers
+#
+# 4. HTTPS boot requires custom-built iPXE with embedded certificates
+#
+# 5. Test configurations in a development environment before production deployment
+#
+# 6. Keep DHCP lease database backed up for disaster recovery
+#
+# 7. Monitor DHCP pool utilization to avoid exhaustion
+#
+# 8. Use fixed IP addresses (via MAC mapping) for critical infrastructure nodes

+# Backup Recommendations
+# - Boot scripts (ipxe/*.ipxe): Version control (git)
+# - Bootloaders (ipxe/*.kpxe, *.efi): Can re-download, but keep backups
+# - NixOS images: Can rebuild from S3 builder, but keep at least 2 versions

+# - Worker: Compute-focused services (k8shost, plasmavmc, basic services)
+# - All-in-One: Testing/homelab deployment with all services on a single node
+#
+# Network Boot Flow:
+# 1. DHCP assigns IP and points to TFTP server

+# 3. iPXE requests this script via HTTP
+# 4. User selects profile or automatic selection via MAC mapping
+# 5. iPXE loads NixOS kernel and initrd via HTTP

+# NixOS Module for PXE Boot Server
+#
+# This module provides a complete PXE boot infrastructure for bare-metal
+# provisioning of Centra Cloud nodes.
+#
+# Services provided:
+# - DHCP server (ISC DHCP)
+# - TFTP server (for iPXE bootloaders)
+# - HTTP server (nginx, for iPXE scripts and NixOS images)
+#
+# Usage:
+#   1. Import this module in your NixOS configuration
+#   2. Enable and configure the PXE server
+#   3. Deploy to your provisioning server
+#
+# Example:
+#   imports = [ ./baremetal/pxe-server/nixos-module.nix ];
+#
+#   services.centra-pxe-server = {
+#     enable = true;
+#     interface = "eth0";

+# Chainfire T003 Feature Gap Analysis
+
+**Audit Date:** 2025-12-08
+**Spec Version:** 1.0
+**Implementation Path:** `/home/centra/cloud/chainfire/crates/`
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+**Total Features Analyzed:** 32
+**Implemented:** 20 (62.5%)
+**Partially Implemented:** 5 (15.6%)
+**Missing:** 7 (21.9%)
+
+The core KV operations, Raft consensus, Watch functionality, and basic cluster management are implemented and functional. Critical gaps exist in TTL/Lease management, read consistency controls, and transaction completeness. Production readiness is blocked by missing lease service and lack of authentication.
+
+---

+
+---
+
+## Critical Gaps (P0)
+
+### 1. Lease Service & TTL Expiration
+**Impact:** Blocks production use cases requiring automatic key expiration (sessions, locks, ephemeral data)
+
+**Evidence:**
+- `/home/centra/cloud/chainfire/proto/chainfire.proto` has no `Lease` service definition
+- `KvEntry` has `lease_id: Option<i64>` field (types/kv.rs:23) but no expiration logic
+- No background worker to delete expired keys
+- etcd compatibility broken without Lease service
+
+**Fix Required:**
+1. Add Lease service to proto: `LeaseGrant`, `LeaseRevoke`, `LeaseKeepAlive`, `LeaseTimeToLive`
+2. Implement lease storage and expiration worker in chainfire-storage
+3. Wire lease_id checks to KV operations
+4. Add lease_id index for efficient expiration queries
+
+---
+
+### 2. Read Consistency Levels
+**Impact:** Cannot guarantee linearizable reads; stale reads possible on followers
+
+**Evidence:**
+- Spec defines `ReadConsistency` enum (spec lines 208-215)
+- No implementation in chainfire-storage or chainfire-api
+- RangeRequest in kv_service.rs always reads from local storage without consistency checks
+
+**Fix Required:**
+1. Add consistency parameter to RangeRequest
+2. Implement leader verification for Linearizable reads
+3. Add committed index check for Serializable reads
+4. Default to Linearizable for safety
+
+---
+
+### 3. Range Operations in Transactions
+**Impact:** Cannot atomically read-then-write in transactions; limits CAS use cases
+
+**Evidence:**
+```rust
+// /home/centra/cloud/chainfire/crates/chainfire-api/src/kv_service.rs:224-229
+crate::proto::request_op::Request::RequestRange(_) => {
+    // Range operations in transactions are not supported yet
+    TxnOp::Delete { key: vec![] }  // Returns dummy operation!
+}
+```
+
+**Fix Required:**
+1. Extend `chainfire_types::command::TxnOp` to include `Range` variant
+2. Update state_machine.rs to handle read operations in transactions
+3. Return range results in TxnResponse.responses
+
+---
+
+## Important Gaps (P1)
+
+### 4. Transaction Response Completeness
+**Evidence:**
+```rust
+// /home/centra/cloud/chainfire/crates/chainfire-api/src/kv_service.rs:194
+Ok(Response::new(TxnResponse {
+    header: Some(self.make_header(response.revision)),
+    succeeded: response.succeeded,
+    responses: vec![], // TODO: fill in responses
+}))
+```
+
+**Fix:** Collect operation results during txn execution and populate responses vector
+
+---
+
+### 5. Point-in-Time Reads (MVCC Historical Queries)
+**Evidence:**
+- RangeRequest has `revision` field (proto/chainfire.proto:78)
+- KvStore.range() doesn't use revision parameter
+- No revision-indexed storage in RocksDB
+
+**Fix:** Implement versioned key storage or revision-based snapshots
+
+---
+
+### 6. StorageBackend Trait Abstraction
+**Evidence:**
+- Spec defines trait (lines 166-174) for pluggable backends
+- chainfire-storage is RocksDB-only
+- No trait in chainfire-core/src/
+
+**Fix:** Extract trait and implement for RocksDB; enables memory backend testing
+
+---
+
+### 7. Observability
+**Gaps:**
+- No Prometheus metrics (spec mentions endpoint at 7.2)
+- No gRPC health check service
+- Limited structured logging
+
+**Fix:** Add metrics crate, implement health checks, expose /metrics endpoint
+
+---
+
+## Nice-to-Have Gaps (P2)
+
+- **Authentication/Authorization:** Spec marks as "Planned" - mTLS and RBAC
+- **Namespace Quotas:** Resource limits per tenant
+- **SWIM Gossip Integration:** chainfire-gossip crate exists but usage unclear
+- **Watch Historical Replay:** start_revision in proto but storage unclear
+- **Advanced etcd Compat:** Package name differences, field naming variations
+
+---
+
+## Key Findings
+
+### Strengths
+1. **Solid Core Implementation:** KV operations, Raft consensus, and basic transactions work well
+2. **Watch System:** Fully functional with bidirectional streaming and event dispatch
+3. **Client Library:** Well-designed with CAS and convenience methods
+4. **Architecture:** Clean separation of concerns across crates
+5. **Testing:** State machine has unit tests for core operations
+
+### Weaknesses
+1. **Incomplete Transactions:** Missing range ops and response population breaks advanced use cases
+2. **No TTL Support:** Critical for production; requires full Lease service implementation
+3. **Undefined Read Consistency:** Dangerous for distributed systems; needs immediate attention
+4. **Limited Observability:** No metrics or health checks hinders production deployment
+
+### Blockers for Production
+1. Lease service implementation (P0)
+2. Read consistency guarantees (P0)
+3. Transaction completeness (P1)
+4. Basic metrics/health checks (P1)
+
+---
+
+## Recommendations
+
+### Phase 1: Production Readiness (2-3 weeks)
+1. Implement Lease service and TTL expiration worker
+2. Add read consistency levels (default to Linearizable)
+3. Complete transaction responses
+4. Add basic Prometheus metrics and health checks
+
+### Phase 2: Feature Completeness (1-2 weeks)
+1. Support range operations in transactions
+2. Implement point-in-time reads
+3. Extract StorageBackend trait
+4. Document and test SWIM gossip integration
+
+### Phase 3: Hardening (2-3 weeks)
+1. Add authentication (mTLS for peers)
+2. Implement basic authorization
+3. Add namespace quotas
+4. Comprehensive integration tests
+
+---
+
+## Appendix: Implementation Evidence
+
+### Transaction Compare Logic
+**Location:** `/home/centra/cloud/chainfire/crates/chainfire-storage/src/state_machine.rs:148-228`
+- ✅ Supports Version, CreateRevision, ModRevision, Value comparisons
+- ✅ Handles Equal, NotEqual, Greater, Less operators
+- ✅ Atomic execution of success/failure ops
+
+### Watch Implementation
+**Location:** `/home/centra/cloud/chainfire/crates/chainfire-watch/`
+- ✅ WatchRegistry with event dispatch
+- ✅ WatchStream for bidirectional gRPC
+- ✅ KeyMatcher for prefix/range watches
+- ✅ Integration with state machine (state_machine.rs:82-88)
+
+### Client CAS Example
+**Location:** `/home/centra/cloud/chainfire/chainfire-client/src/client.rs:228-299`
+- ✅ Uses transactions for compare-and-swap
+- ✅ Returns CasOutcome with current/new versions
+- ⚠️ Fallback read on failure uses range op (demonstrates txn range gap)

+# Storage Layer Performance Baseline
+
+**Task:** T029.S4 High-Load Performance Test
+**Date:** 2025-12-10
+**Test Type:** Direct Storage Layer Benchmarks (Option A)
+**Environment:** Local dev machine (Nix development shell)
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+Both Chainfire and FlareDB storage layers **significantly exceed** the baseline performance targets:
+
+- **Target:** ≥10,000 write ops/sec, ≥50,000 read ops/sec, ≤5ms p99 latency
+- **Result:** ✅ **ALL TARGETS EXCEEDED** by 10-80x for throughput
+- **Bet 1 Validation:** Strong evidence that Rust + RocksDB can match/exceed TiKV/etcd performance at the storage layer
+
+## Test Configuration
+
+### Chainfire-storage
+- **Component:** `chainfire-storage` crate (KvStore abstraction over RocksDB)
+- **Benchmark:** Direct KvStore operations (`put`, `get`)
+- **Data:** 1KB values, sequential keys
+- **Sample Size:** 10 samples for throughput, 1000 samples for latency
+
+### FlareDB-server
+- **Component:** Direct RocksDB operations (no abstraction layer)
+- **Benchmark:** Raw RocksDB put/get/iterator operations
+- **Data:** 1KB values, sequential keys
+- **Sample Size:** 10 samples for throughput, 1000 samples for latency
+

+```
+
+## Analysis
+
+### Performance Characteristics
+
+1. **FlareDB is 2x faster than Chainfire across all metrics**
+   - FlareDB uses RocksDB directly, Chainfire adds KvStore abstraction
+   - KvStore overhead: ~2x latency, ~50% throughput reduction
+   - This overhead is acceptable for the etcd-compatible API Chainfire provides
+
+2. **Sub-microsecond read latency achieved (FlareDB: 1.05µs)**
+   - Demonstrates RocksDB's effectiveness for hot-path reads
+   - Cache hit rates likely high for sequential access patterns
+   - Real-world mixed workloads may see higher latency
+
+3. **Scan performance exceptional (3.4M ops/sec)**
+   - RocksDB iterator optimizations working well
+   - Sequential access patterns benefit from block cache
+   - Critical for FlareDB's time-series range queries
+
+4. **Write performance exceeds targets by 10-22x**
+   - Likely benefiting from:
+     - Write-ahead log (WAL) batching
+     - MemTable writes (not yet flushed to SSTables)
+     - Benchmark's sequential write pattern
+   - Sustained write performance may be lower under:
+     - Compaction pressure
+     - Large dataset sizes
+     - Random write patterns
+
+### Comparison to Industry Standards
+
+| System | Write ops/sec | Read ops/sec | Read Latency |
+|--------|--------------|--------------|--------------|
+| **Chainfire** | **104,290** | **420,850** | **2.54 µs** |
+| **FlareDB** | **220,270** | **791,370** | **1.05 µs** |
+| TiKV (published) | ~100,000 | ~400,000 | ~5-10 µs |
+| etcd (published) | ~10,000 | ~50,000 | ~1ms (networked) |
+
+**Assessment:** Storage layer performance is **competitive with TiKV** and **exceeds etcd** by significant margins.
+
+## Caveats and Limitations
+
+### Test Environment
+- ✅ Local dev machine, not production hardware
+- ✅ Single-threaded benchmark (no concurrency)
+- ✅ Small dataset (10K keys), no compaction pressure
+- ✅ Sequential access patterns (best case for RocksDB)
+- ✅ No network overhead (storage layer only)
+
+### Real-World Expectations
+1. **E2E performance will be lower** due to:
+   - Raft consensus overhead (network + replication)
+   - gRPC serialization/deserialization
+   - Multi-threaded contention
+   - Realistic workload patterns (random access, mixed read/write)
+
+2. **Estimated E2E throughput:** 10-20% of storage layer
+   - Chainfire E2E estimate: ~10,000-20,000 writes/sec, ~40,000-80,000 reads/sec
+   - FlareDB E2E estimate: ~20,000-40,000 writes/sec, ~80,000-150,000 reads/sec
+   - Still well within or exceeding original targets
+
+3. **p99 latency will increase** with:
+   - Concurrent requests (queueing theory)
+   - Compaction events (write stalls)
+   - Network jitter (for distributed operations)
+
+## Bet 1 Validation
+
+**Hypothesis:** "Rust + Tokio async can match TiKV/etcd performance"
+
+**Evidence from storage layer:**
+- ✅ Write throughput matches TiKV (~100-220K ops/sec)
+- ✅ Read throughput matches TiKV (~400-800K ops/sec)
+- ✅ Read latency competitive with TiKV (1-2.5µs vs 5-10µs)
+- ✅ Scan performance exceeds expectations (3.4M ops/sec)
+
+**Conclusion:** Strong evidence that the **storage foundation is sound**. If storage can achieve these numbers, E2E performance should comfortably meet targets even with Raft/gRPC overhead.
+
+## Next Steps
+
+### Immediate (T029.S4 Complete)
+1. ✅ Storage benchmarks complete
+2. ✅ Baseline documented
+3. 📤 Report results to PeerA
+
+### Future Work (Post-T029)
+1. **E2E benchmarks** (blocked by T027 config issues)
+   - Fix chainfire-server/flaredb-server compilation
+   - Run full client→server→storage→Raft benchmarks
+   - Compare E2E vs storage-only performance
+
+2. **Realistic workload testing**
+   - Mixed read/write ratios (70/30, 90/10)
+   - Random access patterns (Zipfian distribution)
+   - Large datasets (1M+ keys) with compaction
+   - Concurrent clients (measure queueing effects)
+
+3. **Production environment validation**
+   - Run on actual deployment hardware
+   - Multi-node cluster benchmarks
+   - Network latency impact analysis
+   - Sustained load testing (hours/days)
+
+4. **p99/p999 latency deep dive**
+   - Tail latency analysis under load
+   - Identify compaction impact
+   - GC pause analysis
+   - Request tracing for outliers

+# Backup & Restore Runbook
+
+## Overview
+
+This runbook covers backup and restore procedures for Chainfire (distributed KV) and FlareDB (time-series DB) persistent data stored in RocksDB.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+### Backup Requirements
+- ✅ Sufficient disk space for snapshot (check data dir size + 20% margin)
+- ✅ Write access to backup destination directory
+- ✅ Node is healthy and reachable
+
+### Restore Requirements
+- ✅ Backup snapshot file available
+- ✅ Target node stopped (for full restore)
+- ✅ Data directory permissions correct (`chown` as service user)
+
+## Chainfire Backup
+
+### Method 1: Hot Backup (RocksDB Checkpoint - Recommended)
+
+**Advantages:** No downtime, consistent snapshot
+
+```bash
+# Create checkpoint backup while Chainfire is running
+BACKUP_DIR="/var/backups/chainfire/$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
+sudo mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"
+
+# Trigger checkpoint via admin API (if exposed)
+curl -X POST http://CHAINFIRE_IP:2379/admin/checkpoint \
+  -d "{\"path\": \"$BACKUP_DIR\"}"
+
+# OR use RocksDB checkpoint CLI
+rocksdb_checkpoint --db=/var/lib/chainfire \
+  --checkpoint_dir="$BACKUP_DIR"
+
+# Verify checkpoint
+ls -lh "$BACKUP_DIR"
+# Should contain: CURRENT, MANIFEST-*, *.sst, *.log files
+```
+
+### Method 2: Cold Backup (File Copy)
+
+**Advantages:** Simple, no special tools
+**Disadvantages:** Requires service stop
+
+```bash
+# Stop Chainfire service
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+
+# Create backup
+BACKUP_DIR="/var/backups/chainfire/$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
+sudo mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"
+sudo rsync -av /var/lib/chainfire/ "$BACKUP_DIR/"
+
+# Restart service
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+
+# Verify backup
+du -sh "$BACKUP_DIR"
+```
+
+### Automated Backup Script
+
+Create `/usr/local/bin/backup-chainfire.sh`:
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+set -euo pipefail
+
+DATA_DIR="/var/lib/chainfire"
+BACKUP_ROOT="/var/backups/chainfire"
+RETENTION_DAYS=7
+
+# Create backup
+BACKUP_DIR="$BACKUP_ROOT/$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
+mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"
+
+# Use checkpoint (hot backup)
+rocksdb_checkpoint --db="$DATA_DIR" --checkpoint_dir="$BACKUP_DIR"
+
+# Compress backup
+tar -czf "$BACKUP_DIR.tar.gz" -C "$BACKUP_ROOT" "$(basename $BACKUP_DIR)"
+rm -rf "$BACKUP_DIR"
+
+# Clean old backups
+find "$BACKUP_ROOT" -name "*.tar.gz" -mtime +$RETENTION_DAYS -delete
+
+echo "Backup complete: $BACKUP_DIR.tar.gz"
+```
+
+**Schedule with cron:**
+```bash
+# Add to crontab
+0 2 * * * /usr/local/bin/backup-chainfire.sh >> /var/log/chainfire-backup.log 2>&1
+```
+
+## Chainfire Restore
+
+### Full Restore from Backup
+
+```bash
+# Stop Chainfire service
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+
+# Backup current data (safety)
+sudo mv /var/lib/chainfire /var/lib/chainfire.bak.$(date +%s)
+
+# Extract backup
+RESTORE_FROM="/var/backups/chainfire/20251210-020000.tar.gz"
+sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/chainfire
+sudo tar -xzf "$RESTORE_FROM" -C /var/lib/chainfire --strip-components=1
+
+# Fix permissions
+sudo chown -R chainfire:chainfire /var/lib/chainfire
+sudo chmod -R 750 /var/lib/chainfire
+
+# Start service
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+
+# Verify restore
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 status
+# Check raft_index matches expected value from backup time
+```
+
+### Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR)
+
+**Note:** RocksDB does not natively support PITR. Use Raft log replay or backup-at-interval strategy.
+
+```bash
+# List available backups
+ls -lht /var/backups/chainfire/
+
+# Choose backup closest to desired recovery point
+RESTORE_FROM="/var/backups/chainfire/20251210-140000.tar.gz"
+
+# Follow Full Restore steps above
+```
+
+## FlareDB Backup
+
+### Hot Backup (RocksDB Checkpoint)
+
+```bash
+# Create checkpoint backup
+BACKUP_DIR="/var/backups/flaredb/$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
+sudo mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"
+
+# Trigger checkpoint
+rocksdb_checkpoint --db=/var/lib/flaredb \
+  --checkpoint_dir="$BACKUP_DIR"
+
+# Compress
+tar -czf "$BACKUP_DIR.tar.gz" -C /var/backups/flaredb "$(basename $BACKUP_DIR)"
+rm -rf "$BACKUP_DIR"
+
+echo "FlareDB backup: $BACKUP_DIR.tar.gz"
+```
+
+### Namespace-Specific Backup
+
+FlareDB stores data in RocksDB column families per namespace:
+
+```bash
+# Backup specific namespace (requires RocksDB CLI tools)
+rocksdb_backup --db=/var/lib/flaredb \
+  --backup_dir=/var/backups/flaredb/namespace-metrics-$(date +%Y%m%d) \
+  --column_family=metrics
+
+# List column families
+rocksdb_ldb --db=/var/lib/flaredb list_column_families
+```
+
+## FlareDB Restore
+
+### Full Restore
+
+```bash
+# Stop FlareDB service
+sudo systemctl stop flaredb
+
+# Backup current data
+sudo mv /var/lib/flaredb /var/lib/flaredb.bak.$(date +%s)
+
+# Extract backup
+RESTORE_FROM="/var/backups/flaredb/20251210-020000.tar.gz"
+sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/flaredb
+sudo tar -xzf "$RESTORE_FROM" -C /var/lib/flaredb --strip-components=1
+
+# Fix permissions
+sudo chown -R flaredb:flaredb /var/lib/flaredb
+
+# Start service
+sudo systemctl start flaredb
+
+# Verify
+flaredb-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 cluster-status
+```
+
+## Multi-Node Cluster Considerations
+
+### Backup Strategy for Raft Clusters
+
+**Important:** For Chainfire/FlareDB Raft clusters, backup from the **leader node** for most consistent snapshot.
+
+```bash
+# Identify leader
+LEADER=$(chainfire-client --endpoint http://NODE1_IP:2379 status | grep leader | awk '{print $2}')
+
+# Backup from leader node
+ssh "node-$LEADER" "/usr/local/bin/backup-chainfire.sh"
+```
+
+### Restore to Multi-Node Cluster
+
+**Option A: Restore Single Node (Raft will replicate)**
+
+1. Restore backup to one node (e.g., leader)
+2. Other nodes will catch up via Raft replication
+3. Monitor replication lag: `raft_index` should converge
+
+**Option B: Restore All Nodes (Disaster Recovery)**
+
+```bash
+# Stop all nodes
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl stop chainfire"
+done
+
+# Restore same backup to all nodes
+BACKUP="/var/backups/chainfire/20251210-020000.tar.gz"
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  scp "$BACKUP" "$node:/tmp/restore.tar.gz"
+  ssh $node "sudo tar -xzf /tmp/restore.tar.gz -C /var/lib/chainfire --strip-components=1"
+  ssh $node "sudo chown -R chainfire:chainfire /var/lib/chainfire"
+done
+
+# Start leader first
+ssh node1 "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+sleep 10
+
+# Start followers
+for node in node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+done
+
+# Verify cluster
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 member-list
+```
+
+## Verification Steps
+
+### Post-Backup Verification
+
+```bash
+# Check backup file integrity
+tar -tzf /var/backups/chainfire/BACKUP.tar.gz | head -20
+
+# Verify backup size (should match data dir size approximately)
+du -sh /var/lib/chainfire
+du -sh /var/backups/chainfire/BACKUP.tar.gz
+
+# Test restore in isolated environment (optional)
+# Use separate VM/container to restore and verify data integrity
+```
+
+### Post-Restore Verification
+
+```bash
+# Check service health
+sudo systemctl status chainfire
+sudo systemctl status flaredb
+
+# Verify data integrity
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 status
+# Check: raft_index, raft_term, leader
+
+# Test read operations
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 get test-key
+
+# Check logs for errors
+journalctl -u chainfire -n 100 --no-pager
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: Backup fails with "No space left on device"
+
+**Resolution:**
+```bash
+# Check available space
+df -h /var/backups
+
+# Clean old backups
+find /var/backups/chainfire -name "*.tar.gz" -mtime +7 -delete
+
+# Or move backups to external storage
+rsync -av --remove-source-files /var/backups/chainfire/ backup-server:/backups/chainfire/
+```
+
+### Issue: Restore fails with permission denied
+
+**Resolution:**
+```bash
+# Fix ownership
+sudo chown -R chainfire:chainfire /var/lib/chainfire
+
+# Fix SELinux context (if applicable)
+sudo restorecon -R /var/lib/chainfire
+```
+
+### Issue: After restore, cluster has split-brain
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Multiple nodes claim to be leader
+- `member-list` shows inconsistent state
+
+**Resolution:**
+```bash
+# Stop all nodes
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do ssh $node "sudo systemctl stop chainfire"; done
+
+# Wipe data on followers (keep leader data)
+for node in node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*"
+done
+
+# Restart leader (bootstraps cluster)
+ssh node1 "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+sleep 10
+
+# Re-add followers via member-add
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 member-add --node-id 2 --peer-url node2:2380
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 member-add --node-id 3 --peer-url node3:2380
+
+# Start followers
+for node in node2 node3; do ssh $node "sudo systemctl start chainfire"; done
+```

+
+# Copy to new node
+scp -r /etc/centra-cloud/certs/chainfire-node-N.{crt,key} new-node:/etc/centra-cloud/certs/
+scp /etc/centra-cloud/certs/ca.crt new-node:/etc/centra-cloud/certs/
+```
+
+### Configuration
+- ✅ Node ID assigned (must be unique cluster-wide)
+- ✅ Config file prepared (`/etc/centra-cloud/chainfire.toml` or `/etc/centra-cloud/flaredb.toml`)
+
+## Chainfire Scale-Out
+
+### Step 1: Prepare New Node Configuration
+
+Create `/etc/centra-cloud/chainfire.toml` on the new node:
+
+```toml
+[node]
+id = 4  # NEW NODE ID (must be unique)
+name = "chainfire-node-4"
+role = "control_plane"
+
+[cluster]
+id = 1
+bootstrap = false  # IMPORTANT: Do not bootstrap
+initial_members = []  # Leave empty for join flow
+
+[network]
+api_addr = "0.0.0.0:2379"
+raft_addr = "0.0.0.0:2380"
+gossip_addr = "0.0.0.0:2381"
+
+[network.tls]  # Optional, if TLS enabled
+cert_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/chainfire-node-4.crt"
+key_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/chainfire-node-4.key"
+ca_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/ca.crt"
+require_client_cert = true
+
+[storage]
+data_dir = "/var/lib/chainfire"
+
+[raft]
+role = "voter"  # or "learner" for non-voting replica
+```
+
+### Step 2: Start New Node Server
+
+```bash
+# On new node
+cd /path/to/chainfire
+nix develop -c cargo run --release --bin chainfire-server -- \
+  --config /etc/centra-cloud/chainfire.toml
+
+# Verify server is listening
+netstat -tlnp | grep -E '2379|2380'
+```
+
+### Step 3: Add Node to Cluster via Leader
+
+```bash
+# On existing cluster node or via chainfire-client
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 \
+  member-add \
+  --node-id 4 \
+  --peer-url NEW_NODE_IP:2380 \
+  --voter  # or --learner
+
+# Expected output:
+# Node added: id=4, peer_urls=["NEW_NODE_IP:2380"]
+```
+
+### Step 4: Verification
+
+```bash
+# Check cluster membership
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 member-list
+
+# Expected output should include new node:
+# ID=4, Name=chainfire-node-4, PeerURLs=[NEW_NODE_IP:2380], IsLearner=false
+
+# Check new node status
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://NEW_NODE_IP:2379 status
+
+# Verify:
+# - leader: (should show leader node ID, e.g., 1)
+# - raft_term: (should match leader)
+# - raft_index: (should be catching up to leader's index)
+```
+
+### Step 5: Promote Learner to Voter (if added as learner)
+
+```bash
+# If node was added as learner, promote after data sync
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 \
+  member-promote \
+  --node-id 4
+
+# Verify voting status
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 member-list
+# IsLearner should now be false
+```
+
+## FlareDB Scale-Out
+
+### Step 1: Prepare New Node Configuration
+
+Create `/etc/centra-cloud/flaredb.toml` on the new node:
+
+```toml
+store_id = 4  # NEW STORE ID (must be unique)
+addr = "0.0.0.0:2379"
+data_dir = "/var/lib/flaredb"
+pd_addr = "PD_SERVER_IP:2379"  # Placement Driver address
+log_level = "info"
+
+[tls]  # Optional, if TLS enabled
+cert_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/flaredb-node-4.crt"
+key_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/flaredb-node-4.key"
+ca_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/ca.crt"
+require_client_cert = true
+
+[peers]
+# Empty for new node - will be populated by PD
+
+[namespace_modes]
+default = "eventual"  # or "strong"
+```
+
+### Step 2: Start New FlareDB Node
+
+```bash
+# On new node
+cd /path/to/flaredb
+nix develop -c cargo run --release --bin flaredb-server -- \
+  --config /etc/centra-cloud/flaredb.toml
+
+# Verify server is listening
+netstat -tlnp | grep 2379
+```
+
+### Step 3: Register with Placement Driver
+
+```bash
+# PD should auto-discover the new store
+# Check PD logs for registration:
+journalctl -u placement-driver -f | grep "store_id=4"
+
+# Verify store registration
+curl http://PD_SERVER_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stores
+
+# Expected: store_id=4 should appear in list
+```
+
+### Step 4: Verification
+
+```bash
+# Check cluster status
+flaredb-client --endpoint http://PD_SERVER_IP:2379 cluster-status
+
+# Verify new store is online:
+# store_id=4, state=Up, capacity=..., available=...
+
+# Test write/read
+flaredb-client --endpoint http://NEW_NODE_IP:2379 \
+  put test-key test-value
+flaredb-client --endpoint http://NEW_NODE_IP:2379 \
+  get test-key
+# Should return: test-value
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: Node fails to join cluster
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- `member-add` command hangs or times out
+- New node logs show "connection refused" errors
+
+**Resolution:**
+1. Verify network connectivity:
+   ```bash
+   # From leader node
+   nc -zv NEW_NODE_IP 2380
+   ```
+
+2. Check firewall rules:
+   ```bash
+   # On new node
+   sudo iptables -L -n | grep 2380
+   ```
+
+3. Verify Raft server is listening:
+   ```bash
+   # On new node
+   ss -tlnp | grep 2380
+   ```
+
+4. Check TLS configuration mismatch:
+   ```bash
+   # Ensure TLS settings match between nodes
+   # If leader has TLS enabled, new node must too
+   ```
+
+### Issue: New node stuck as learner
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- `member-list` shows `IsLearner=true` after expected promotion time
+- Raft index not catching up
+
+**Resolution:**
+1. Check replication lag:
+   ```bash
+   # Compare leader vs new node
+   chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 status | grep raft_index
+   chainfire-client --endpoint http://NEW_NODE_IP:2379 status | grep raft_index
+   ```
+
+2. If lag is large, wait for catchup before promoting
+
+3. If stuck, check new node logs for errors:
+   ```bash
+   journalctl -u chainfire -n 100
+   ```
+
+### Issue: Cluster performance degradation after adding node
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Increased write latency after new node joins
+- Leader election instability
+
+**Resolution:**
+1. Check node resources (CPU, memory, disk I/O):
+   ```bash
+   # On new node
+   top
+   iostat -x 1
+   ```
+
+2. Verify network latency between nodes:
+   ```bash
+   # From leader to new node
+   ping -c 100 NEW_NODE_IP
+   # Latency should be < 10ms for same datacenter
+   ```
+
+3. Consider adding as learner first, then promoting after stable
+
+## Rollback Procedure
+
+If scale-out causes issues, remove the new node:
+
+```bash
+# Remove node from cluster
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 \
+  member-remove \
+  --node-id 4
+
+# Stop server on new node
+systemctl stop chainfire
+
+# Clean up data (if needed)
+rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*
+```

+
+## Chainfire Issues
+
+### Issue: Node Cannot Join Cluster
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- `member-add` command hangs or times out
+- New node logs show "connection refused" or "timeout" errors
+- `member-list` does not show the new node
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+```bash
+# 1. Check network connectivity
+nc -zv NEW_NODE_IP 2380
+
+# 2. Verify Raft server is listening on new node
+ssh NEW_NODE_IP "ss -tlnp | grep 2380"
+
+# 3. Check firewall rules
+ssh NEW_NODE_IP "sudo iptables -L -n | grep 2380"
+
+# 4. Verify TLS configuration matches
+ssh NEW_NODE_IP "grep -A5 '\[network.tls\]' /etc/centra-cloud/chainfire.toml"
+
+# 5. Check leader logs
+ssh LEADER_NODE "journalctl -u chainfire -n 50 | grep -i 'add.*node'"
+```
+
+**Resolution:**
+
+**If network issue:**
+```bash
+# Open firewall ports on new node
+sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=2379/tcp
+sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=2380/tcp
+sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=2381/tcp
+sudo firewall-cmd --reload
+```
+
+**If TLS mismatch:**
+```bash
+# Ensure new node has correct certificates
+sudo ls -l /etc/centra-cloud/certs/
+# Should have: ca.crt, chainfire-node-N.crt, chainfire-node-N.key
+
+# Verify certificate is valid
+openssl x509 -in /etc/centra-cloud/certs/chainfire-node-N.crt -noout -text
+```
+
+**If bootstrap flag set incorrectly:**
+```bash
+# Edit config on new node
+sudo vi /etc/centra-cloud/chainfire.toml
+
+# Ensure:
+# [cluster]
+# bootstrap = false  # MUST be false for joining nodes
+
+sudo systemctl restart chainfire
+```
+
+### Issue: No Leader / Leader Election Fails
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Writes fail with "no leader elected" error
+- `chainfire-client status` shows `leader: none`
+- Logs show repeated "election timeout" messages
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+```bash
+# 1. Check cluster membership
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://NODE1_IP:2379 member-list
+
+# 2. Check Raft state on all nodes
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  echo "=== $node ==="
+  ssh $node "journalctl -u chainfire -n 20 | grep -i 'raft\|leader\|election'"
+done
+
+# 3. Check network partition
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  for peer in node1 node2 node3; do
+    echo "$node -> $peer:"
+    ssh $node "ping -c 3 $peer"
+  done
+done
+
+# 4. Check quorum
+# For 3-node cluster, need 2 nodes (majority)
+RUNNING_NODES=$(for node in node1 node2 node3; do ssh $node "systemctl is-active chainfire" 2>/dev/null; done | grep -c active)
+echo "Running nodes: $RUNNING_NODES (need >= 2 for quorum)"
+```
+
+**Resolution:**
+
+**If <50% nodes are up (no quorum):**
+```bash
+# Start majority of nodes
+ssh node1 "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+ssh node2 "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+
+# Wait for leader election
+sleep 10
+
+# Verify leader elected
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 status | grep leader
+```
+
+**If network partition:**
+```bash
+# Check and fix network connectivity
+# Ensure bidirectional connectivity between all nodes
+
+# Restart affected nodes
+ssh ISOLATED_NODE "sudo systemctl restart chainfire"
+```
+
+**If split-brain (multiple leaders):**
+```bash
+# DANGER: This wipes follower data
+# Stop all nodes
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl stop chainfire"
+done
+
+# Keep only the node with highest raft_index
+# Wipe others
+ssh node2 "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*"
+ssh node3 "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*"
+
+# Restart leader (node1 in this example)
+ssh node1 "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+sleep 10
+
+# Re-add followers via member-add
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 member-add --node-id 2 --peer-url node2:2380
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 member-add --node-id 3 --peer-url node3:2380
+
+# Start followers
+ssh node2 "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+ssh node3 "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+```
+
+### Issue: High Write Latency
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- `chainfire-client put` commands take >100ms
+- Application reports slow writes
+- Metrics show p99 latency >500ms
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+```bash
+# 1. Check disk I/O
+iostat -x 1 10
+# Watch for %util > 80% or await > 20ms
+
+# 2. Check Raft replication lag
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 status
+# Compare raft_index across nodes
+
+# 3. Check network latency between nodes
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  echo "=== $node ==="
+  ping -c 10 $node
+done
+
+# 4. Check CPU usage
+top -bn1 | grep chainfire
+
+# 5. Check RocksDB stats
+# Look for stalls in logs
+journalctl -u chainfire -n 500 | grep -i stall
+```
+
+**Resolution:**
+
+**If disk I/O bottleneck:**
+```bash
+# 1. Check data directory is on SSD (not HDD)
+df -h /var/lib/chainfire
+mount | grep /var/lib/chainfire
+
+# 2. Tune RocksDB settings (in config)
+[storage]
+# Increase write buffer size
+write_buffer_size = 134217728  # 128MB (default: 64MB)
+# Increase block cache
+block_cache_size = 536870912   # 512MB (default: 256MB)
+
+# 3. Enable direct I/O if on dedicated disk
+# Add to config:
+use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction = true
+
+# 4. Restart service
+sudo systemctl restart chainfire
+```
+
+**If network latency:**
+```bash
+# Verify nodes are in same datacenter
+# For cross-datacenter, expect higher latency
+# Consider adding learner nodes instead of voters
+
+# Check MTU settings
+ip link show | grep mtu
+# Ensure MTU is consistent across nodes (typically 1500 or 9000 for jumbo frames)
+```
+
+**If CPU bottleneck:**
+```bash
+# Scale vertically (add CPU cores)
+# Or scale horizontally (add read replicas as learner nodes)
+
+# Tune Raft tick interval (in config)
+[raft]
+tick_interval_ms = 200  # Increase from default 100ms
+```
+
+### Issue: Data Inconsistency After Crash
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- After node crash/restart, reads return stale data
+- `raft_index` does not advance
+- Logs show "corrupted log entry" errors
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+```bash
+# 1. Check RocksDB integrity
+# Stop service first
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+
+# Run RocksDB repair
+rocksdb_ldb --db=/var/lib/chainfire repair
+
+# Check for corruption
+rocksdb_ldb --db=/var/lib/chainfire checkconsistency
+```
+
+**Resolution:**
+
+**If minor corruption (repair successful):**
+```bash
+# Restart service
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+
+# Let Raft catch up from leader
+# Monitor raft_index
+watch -n 1 "chainfire-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 status | grep raft_index"
+```
+
+**If major corruption (repair failed):**
+```bash
+# Restore from backup
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+sudo mv /var/lib/chainfire /var/lib/chainfire.corrupted
+sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/chainfire
+
+# Extract latest backup
+LATEST_BACKUP=$(ls -t /var/backups/chainfire/*.tar.gz | head -1)
+sudo tar -xzf "$LATEST_BACKUP" -C /var/lib/chainfire --strip-components=1
+
+# Fix permissions
+sudo chown -R chainfire:chainfire /var/lib/chainfire
+
+# Restart
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+```
+
+**If cannot restore (no backup):**
+```bash
+# Remove node from cluster and re-add fresh
+# From leader node:
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 member-remove --node-id FAILED_NODE_ID
+
+# On failed node, wipe and rejoin
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+sudo rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+
+# Re-add from leader
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 member-add \
+  --node-id FAILED_NODE_ID \
+  --peer-url FAILED_NODE_IP:2380 \
+  --learner
+
+# Promote after catchup
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 member-promote --node-id FAILED_NODE_ID
+```
+
+## FlareDB Issues
+
+### Issue: Store Not Registering with PD
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- New FlareDB store starts but doesn't appear in `cluster-status`
+- Store logs show "failed to register with PD" errors
+- PD logs show no registration attempts
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+```bash
+# 1. Check PD connectivity
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "nc -zv PD_IP 2379"
+
+# 2. Verify PD address in config
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "grep pd_addr /etc/centra-cloud/flaredb.toml"
+
+# 3. Check store logs
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "journalctl -u flaredb -n 100 | grep -i 'pd\|register'"
+
+# 4. Check PD logs
+ssh PD_NODE "journalctl -u placement-driver -n 100 | grep -i register"
+
+# 5. Verify store_id is unique
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stores | jq '.stores[] | .id'
+```
+
+**Resolution:**
+
+**If network issue:**
+```bash
+# Open firewall on PD node
+ssh PD_NODE "sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=2379/tcp"
+ssh PD_NODE "sudo firewall-cmd --reload"
+
+# Restart store
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "sudo systemctl restart flaredb"
+```
+
+**If duplicate store_id:**
+```bash
+# Assign new unique store_id
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "sudo vi /etc/centra-cloud/flaredb.toml"
+# Change: store_id = <NEW_UNIQUE_ID>
+
+# Wipe old data (contains old store_id)
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/flaredb/*"
+
+# Restart
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "sudo systemctl restart flaredb"
+```
+
+**If TLS mismatch:**
+```bash
+# Ensure PD and store have matching TLS config
+# Either both use TLS or both don't
+
+# If PD uses TLS:
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "sudo vi /etc/centra-cloud/flaredb.toml"
+# Add/verify:
+# [tls]
+# cert_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/flaredb-node-N.crt"
+# key_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/flaredb-node-N.key"
+# ca_file = "/etc/centra-cloud/certs/ca.crt"
+
+# Restart
+ssh FLAREDB_NODE "sudo systemctl restart flaredb"
+```
+
+### Issue: Region Rebalancing Stuck
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- `pd/api/v1/stats/region` shows high `pending_peers` count
+- Regions not moving to new stores
+- PD logs show "failed to schedule operator" errors
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+```bash
+# 1. Check region stats
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stats/region | jq
+
+# 2. Check store capacity
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stores | jq '.stores[] | {id, state, available, capacity}'
+
+# 3. Check pending operators
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/operators | jq
+
+# 4. Check PD scheduler config
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/config/schedule | jq
+```
+
+**Resolution:**
+
+**If store is down:**
+```bash
+# Identify down store
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stores | jq '.stores[] | select(.state!="Up")'
+
+# Fix or remove down store
+ssh DOWN_STORE_NODE "sudo systemctl restart flaredb"
+
+# If cannot recover, remove store:
+curl -X DELETE http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/store/DOWN_STORE_ID
+```
+
+**If disk full:**
+```bash
+# Identify full stores
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stores | jq '.stores[] | select((.available / .capacity) < 0.1)'
+
+# Add more storage or scale out with new stores
+# See scale-out.md for adding stores
+```
+
+**If scheduler disabled:**
+```bash
+# Check scheduler status
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/config/schedule | jq '.schedulers'
+
+# Enable schedulers if disabled
+curl -X POST http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/config/schedule \
+  -d '{"max-snapshot-count": 3, "max-pending-peer-count": 16}'
+```
+
+### Issue: Read/Write Timeout
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Client operations timeout after 30s
+- Logs show "context deadline exceeded"
+- No leader election issues visible
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+```bash
+# 1. Check client timeout config
+# Default timeout is 30s
+
+# 2. Check store responsiveness
+time flaredb-client --endpoint http://STORE_IP:2379 get test-key
+
+# 3. Check CPU usage on stores
+ssh STORE_NODE "top -bn1 | grep flaredb"
+
+# 4. Check slow queries
+ssh STORE_NODE "journalctl -u flaredb -n 500 | grep -i 'slow\|timeout'"
+
+# 5. Check disk latency
+ssh STORE_NODE "iostat -x 1 10"
+```
+
+**Resolution:**
+
+**If disk I/O bottleneck:**
+```bash
+# Same as Chainfire high latency issue
+# 1. Verify SSD usage
+# 2. Tune RocksDB settings
+# 3. Add more stores for read distribution
+```
+
+**If CPU bottleneck:**
+```bash
+# Check compaction storms
+ssh STORE_NODE "journalctl -u flaredb | grep -i compaction | tail -50"
+
+# Throttle compaction if needed
+# Add to flaredb config:
+[storage]
+max_background_compactions = 2  # Reduce from default 4
+max_background_flushes = 1      # Reduce from default 2
+
+sudo systemctl restart flaredb
+```
+
+**If network partition:**
+```bash
+# Check connectivity between store and PD
+ssh STORE_NODE "ping -c 10 PD_IP"
+
+# Check for packet loss
+# If >1% loss, investigate network infrastructure
+```
+
+## TLS/mTLS Issues
+
+### Issue: TLS Handshake Failures
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Logs show "tls: bad certificate" or "certificate verify failed"
+- Connections fail immediately
+- curl commands fail with SSL errors
+
+**Diagnosis:**
+```bash
+# 1. Verify certificate files exist
+ls -l /etc/centra-cloud/certs/
+
+# 2. Check certificate validity
+openssl x509 -in /etc/centra-cloud/certs/chainfire-node-1.crt -noout -dates
+
+# 3. Verify CA matches
+openssl x509 -in /etc/centra-cloud/certs/ca.crt -noout -subject
+openssl x509 -in /etc/centra-cloud/certs/chainfire-node-1.crt -noout -issuer
+
+# 4. Test TLS connection
+openssl s_client -connect NODE_IP:2379 \
+  -CAfile /etc/centra-cloud/certs/ca.crt \
+  -cert /etc/centra-cloud/certs/chainfire-node-1.crt \
+  -key /etc/centra-cloud/certs/chainfire-node-1.key
+```
+
+**Resolution:**
+
+**If certificate expired:**
+```bash
+# Regenerate certificates
+cd /path/to/centra-cloud
+./scripts/generate-dev-certs.sh /etc/centra-cloud/certs
+
+# Distribute to all nodes
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  scp /etc/centra-cloud/certs/* $node:/etc/centra-cloud/certs/
+done
+
+# Restart services
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl restart chainfire"
+done
+```
+
+**If CA mismatch:**
+```bash
+# Ensure all nodes use same CA
+# Regenerate all certs from same CA
+
+# On CA-generating node:
+./scripts/generate-dev-certs.sh /tmp/new-certs
+
+# Distribute to all nodes
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  scp /tmp/new-certs/* $node:/etc/centra-cloud/certs/
+  ssh $node "sudo chown -R chainfire:chainfire /etc/centra-cloud/certs"
+  ssh $node "sudo chmod 600 /etc/centra-cloud/certs/*.key"
+done
+
+# Restart all services
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl restart chainfire"
+done
+```
+
+**If permissions issue:**
+```bash
+# Fix certificate file permissions
+sudo chown chainfire:chainfire /etc/centra-cloud/certs/*
+sudo chmod 644 /etc/centra-cloud/certs/*.crt
+sudo chmod 600 /etc/centra-cloud/certs/*.key
+
+# Restart service
+sudo systemctl restart chainfire
+```
+
+## Performance Tuning
+
+### Chainfire Performance Optimization
+
+**For write-heavy workloads:**
+```toml
+# /etc/centra-cloud/chainfire.toml
+
+[storage]
+# Increase write buffer
+write_buffer_size = 134217728  # 128MB
+
+# More write buffers
+max_write_buffer_number = 4
+
+# Larger block cache for hot data
+block_cache_size = 1073741824  # 1GB
+
+# Reduce compaction frequency
+level0_file_num_compaction_trigger = 8  # Default: 4
+```
+
+**For read-heavy workloads:**
+```toml
+[storage]
+# Larger block cache
+block_cache_size = 2147483648  # 2GB
+
+# Enable bloom filters
+bloom_filter_bits_per_key = 10
+
+# More table cache
+max_open_files = 10000  # Default: 1000
+```
+
+**For low-latency requirements:**
+```toml
+[raft]
+# Reduce tick interval
+tick_interval_ms = 50  # Default: 100
+
+[storage]
+# Enable direct I/O
+use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction = true
+```
+
+### FlareDB Performance Optimization
+
+**For high ingestion rate:**
+```toml
+# /etc/centra-cloud/flaredb.toml
+
+[storage]
+# Larger write buffers
+write_buffer_size = 268435456  # 256MB
+max_write_buffer_number = 6
+
+# More background jobs
+max_background_compactions = 4
+max_background_flushes = 2
+```
+
+**For large query workloads:**
+```toml
+[storage]
+# Larger block cache
+block_cache_size = 4294967296  # 4GB
+
+# Keep more files open
+max_open_files = 20000
+```
+
+## Monitoring & Alerts
+
+### Key Metrics to Monitor
+
+**Chainfire:**
+- `raft_index` - should advance steadily
+- `raft_term` - should be stable (not increasing frequently)
+- Write latency p50, p95, p99
+- Disk I/O utilization
+- Network bandwidth between nodes
+
+**FlareDB:**
+- Store state (Up/Down)
+- Region count and distribution
+- Pending peers count (should be near 0)
+- Read/write QPS per store
+- Disk space available
+
+### Prometheus Queries
+
+```promql
+# Chainfire write latency
+histogram_quantile(0.99, rate(chainfire_write_duration_seconds_bucket[5m]))
+
+# Raft log replication lag
+chainfire_raft_index{role="leader"} - chainfire_raft_index{role="follower"}
+
+# FlareDB store health
+flaredb_store_state == 1  # 1 = Up, 0 = Down
+
+# Region rebalancing activity
+rate(flaredb_pending_peers_total[5m])
+```
+
+### Alerting Rules
+
+```yaml
+# Prometheus alerting rules
+
+groups:
+  - name: chainfire
+    rules:
+      - alert: ChainfireNoLeader
+        expr: chainfire_has_leader == 0
+        for: 1m
+        labels:
+          severity: critical
+        annotations:

+        for: 10m
+        labels:
+          severity: warning
+        annotations:
+          summary: "FlareDB has {{ $value }} pending peers (rebalancing stuck?)"
+```
+
+## Log Analysis
+
+### Common Log Patterns
+
+**Chainfire healthy operation:**
+```
+INFO chainfire_raft: Leader elected, term=3
+INFO chainfire_storage: Committed entry, index=12345
+INFO chainfire_api: Handled put request, latency=15ms
+```
+
+**Chainfire warning signs:**
+```
+WARN chainfire_raft: Election timeout, no heartbeat from leader
+WARN chainfire_storage: RocksDB stall detected, duration=2000ms
+ERROR chainfire_network: Failed to connect to peer, addr=node2:2380
+```
+
+**FlareDB healthy operation:**
+```
+INFO flaredb_pd_client: Registered with PD, store_id=1
+INFO flaredb_raft: Applied snapshot, index=5000
+INFO flaredb_service: Handled query, rows=1000, latency=50ms
+```
+
+**FlareDB warning signs:**
+```
+WARN flaredb_pd_client: Heartbeat to PD failed, retrying...
+WARN flaredb_storage: Compaction is slow, duration=30s
+ERROR flaredb_raft: Failed to replicate log, peer=store2
+```
+
+### Log Aggregation Queries
+
+**Using journalctl:**
+```bash
+# Find all errors in last hour
+journalctl -u chainfire --since "1 hour ago" | grep ERROR
+
+# Count error types
+journalctl -u chainfire --since "1 day ago" | grep ERROR | awk '{print $NF}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
+
+# Track leader changes
+journalctl -u chainfire | grep "Leader elected" | tail -20
+```
+
+**Using grep for pattern matching:**
+```bash
+# Find slow operations
+journalctl -u chainfire -n 10000 | grep -E 'latency=[0-9]{3,}ms'
+
+# Find connection errors
+journalctl -u chainfire -n 5000 | grep -i 'connection refused\|timeout\|unreachable'
+
+# Find replication lag
+journalctl -u chainfire | grep -i 'lag\|behind\|catch.*up'
+```

+## Chainfire Rolling Upgrade
+
+### Pre-Upgrade Checks
+
+```bash
+# Check cluster health
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 status
+
+# Verify all nodes are healthy
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 member-list
+
+# Check current version
+chainfire-server --version
+
+# Verify no ongoing operations
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 status | grep raft_index
+# Wait for index to stabilize (no rapid changes)
+
+# Create backup
+/usr/local/bin/backup-chainfire.sh
+```
+
+### Upgrade Sequence
+
+**Important:** Upgrade followers first, then the leader last to minimize leadership changes.
+
+#### Step 1: Identify Leader
+
+```bash
+# Get cluster status
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://NODE1_IP:2379 status
+
+# Note the leader node ID
+LEADER_ID=$(chainfire-client --endpoint http://NODE1_IP:2379 status | grep 'leader:' | awk '{print $2}')
+echo "Leader is node $LEADER_ID"
+```
+
+#### Step 2: Upgrade Follower Nodes
+
+**For each follower node (non-leader):**
+
+```bash
+# SSH to follower node
+ssh follower-node-2
+
+# Download new binary
+sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.new \
+  https://releases.centra.cloud/chainfire-server-v0.2.0
+
+# Verify checksum
+echo "EXPECTED_SHA256 /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.new" | sha256sum -c
+
+# Make executable
+sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.new
+
+# Stop service
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+
+# Backup old binary
+sudo cp /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.bak
+
+# Replace binary
+sudo mv /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.new /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server
+
+# Start service
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+
+# Verify upgrade
+chainfire-server --version
+# Should show new version
+
+# Check node rejoined cluster
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 status
+# Verify: raft_index is catching up
+
+# Wait for catchup
+while true; do
+  LEADER_INDEX=$(chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 status | grep raft_index | awk '{print $2}')
+  FOLLOWER_INDEX=$(chainfire-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 status | grep raft_index | awk '{print $2}')
+  DIFF=$((LEADER_INDEX - FOLLOWER_INDEX))
+
+  if [ $DIFF -lt 10 ]; then
+    echo "Follower caught up (diff: $DIFF)"
+    break
+  fi
+
+  echo "Waiting for catchup... (diff: $DIFF)"
+  sleep 5
+done
+```
+
+**Wait 5 minutes between follower upgrades** to ensure stability.
+
+#### Step 3: Upgrade Leader Node
+
+```bash
+# SSH to leader node
+ssh leader-node-1
+
+# Download new binary
+sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.new \
+  https://releases.centra.cloud/chainfire-server-v0.2.0
+
+# Verify checksum
+echo "EXPECTED_SHA256 /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.new" | sha256sum -c
+
+# Make executable
+sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.new
+
+# Stop service (triggers leader election)
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+
+# Backup old binary
+sudo cp /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.bak
+
+# Replace binary
+sudo mv /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.new /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server
+
+# Start service
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+
+# Verify new leader elected
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://FOLLOWER_IP:2379 status | grep leader
+# Leader should be one of the upgraded followers
+
+# Verify this node rejoined
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 status
+```
+
+### Post-Upgrade Verification
+
+```bash
+# Check all nodes are on new version
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  echo "=== $node ==="
+  ssh $node "chainfire-server --version"
+done
+
+# Verify cluster health
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://ANY_NODE_IP:2379 member-list
+# All nodes should show IsLearner=false, Status=healthy
+
+# Test write operation
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://ANY_NODE_IP:2379 \
+  put upgrade-test "upgraded-at-$(date +%s)"
+
+# Test read operation
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://ANY_NODE_IP:2379 \
+  get upgrade-test
+
+# Check logs for errors
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  echo "=== $node logs ==="
+  ssh $node "journalctl -u chainfire -n 50 --no-pager | grep -i error"
+done
+```
+
+## FlareDB Rolling Upgrade
+
+### Pre-Upgrade Checks
+
+```bash
+# Check cluster status
+flaredb-client --endpoint http://PD_IP:2379 cluster-status
+
+# Verify all stores are online
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stores | jq '.stores[] | {id, state}'
+
+# Check current version
+flaredb-server --version
+
+# Create backup
+BACKUP_DIR="/var/backups/flaredb/$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
+rocksdb_checkpoint --db=/var/lib/flaredb --checkpoint_dir="$BACKUP_DIR"
+```
+
+### Upgrade Sequence
+
+**FlareDB supports hot upgrades** due to PD-managed placement. Upgrade stores one at a time.
+
+#### For Each FlareDB Store:
+
+```bash
+# SSH to store node
+ssh flaredb-node-1
+
+# Download new binary
+sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/flaredb-server.new \
+  https://releases.centra.cloud/flaredb-server-v0.2.0
+
+# Verify checksum
+echo "EXPECTED_SHA256 /usr/local/bin/flaredb-server.new" | sha256sum -c
+
+# Make executable
+sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/flaredb-server.new
+
+# Stop service
+sudo systemctl stop flaredb
+
+# Backup old binary
+sudo cp /usr/local/bin/flaredb-server /usr/local/bin/flaredb-server.bak
+
+# Replace binary
+sudo mv /usr/local/bin/flaredb-server.new /usr/local/bin/flaredb-server
+
+# Start service
+sudo systemctl start flaredb
+
+# Verify store comes back online
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stores | jq '.stores[] | select(.id==STORE_ID) | .state'
+# Should show: "Up"
+
+# Check version
+flaredb-server --version
+```
+
+**Wait for rebalancing to complete** before upgrading next store:
+
+```bash
+# Check region health
+curl http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stats/region | jq '.count'
+
+# Wait until no pending peers
+while true; do
+  PENDING=$(curl -s http://PD_IP:2379/pd/api/v1/stats/region | jq '.pending_peers')
+  if [ "$PENDING" -eq 0 ]; then
+    echo "No pending peers, safe to continue"
+    break
+  fi
+  echo "Waiting for rebalancing... (pending: $PENDING)"
+  sleep 10
+done
+```
+
+### Post-Upgrade Verification
+
+```bash
+# Check all stores are on new version
+for node in flaredb-node-{1..3}; do
+  echo "=== $node ==="
+  ssh $node "flaredb-server --version"
+done
+
+# Verify cluster health
+flaredb-client --endpoint http://PD_IP:2379 cluster-status
+
+# Test write operation
+flaredb-client --endpoint http://ANY_STORE_IP:2379 \
+  put upgrade-test "upgraded-at-$(date +%s)"
+
+# Test read operation
+flaredb-client --endpoint http://ANY_STORE_IP:2379 \
+  get upgrade-test
+
+# Check logs for errors
+for node in flaredb-node-{1..3}; do
+  echo "=== $node logs ==="
+  ssh $node "journalctl -u flaredb -n 50 --no-pager | grep -i error"
+done
+```
+
+## Automated Upgrade Script

+
+echo "=== Upgrade complete ==="
+echo "Verifying cluster health..."
+
+sleep 10
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://${NODES[0]}:2379 member-list
+
+echo "All nodes upgraded successfully!"
+```
+
+**Usage:**
+```bash
+chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rolling-upgrade-chainfire.sh
+/usr/local/bin/rolling-upgrade-chainfire.sh v0.2.0 <sha256-checksum>
+```
+
+## Rollback Procedure
+
+If upgrade fails or causes issues, rollback to previous version:
+
+### Rollback Single Node
+
+```bash
+# SSH to problematic node
+ssh failing-node
+
+# Stop service
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+
+# Restore old binary
+sudo cp /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.bak /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server
+
+# Start service
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+
+# Verify
+chainfire-server --version
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://localhost:2379 status
+```
+
+### Rollback Entire Cluster
+
+```bash
+# Rollback all nodes (reverse order: leader first, then followers)
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  echo "=== Rolling back $node ==="
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl stop chainfire"
+  ssh $node "sudo cp /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.bak /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server"
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+  sleep 10
+done
+
+# Verify cluster health
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 member-list
+```
+
+### Restore from Backup (Disaster Recovery)
+
+If rollback fails, restore from backup (see `backup-restore.md`):
+
+```bash
+# Stop all nodes
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl stop chainfire"
+done
+
+# Restore backup to all nodes
+BACKUP="/var/backups/chainfire/20251210-020000.tar.gz"
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  scp "$BACKUP" "$node:/tmp/restore.tar.gz"
+  ssh $node "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/chainfire/*"
+  ssh $node "sudo tar -xzf /tmp/restore.tar.gz -C /var/lib/chainfire --strip-components=1"
+  ssh $node "sudo chown -R chainfire:chainfire /var/lib/chainfire"
+done
+
+# Restore old binaries
+for node in node1 node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo cp /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.bak /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server"
+done
+
+# Start leader first
+ssh node1 "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+sleep 10
+
+# Start followers
+for node in node2 node3; do
+  ssh $node "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+done
+
+# Verify
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 member-list
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: Node fails to start after upgrade
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- `systemctl status chainfire` shows failed state
+- Logs show "incompatible data format" errors
+
+**Resolution:**
+```bash
+# Check logs
+journalctl -u chainfire -n 100 --no-pager
+
+# If data format incompatible, restore from backup
+sudo systemctl stop chainfire
+sudo mv /var/lib/chainfire /var/lib/chainfire.failed
+sudo tar -xzf /var/backups/chainfire/LATEST.tar.gz -C /var/lib/chainfire --strip-components=1
+sudo chown -R chainfire:chainfire /var/lib/chainfire
+sudo systemctl start chainfire
+```
+
+### Issue: Cluster loses quorum during upgrade
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Writes fail with "no leader" errors
+- Multiple nodes show different leaders
+
+**Resolution:**
+```bash
+# Immediately rollback in-progress upgrade
+ssh UPGRADED_NODE "sudo systemctl stop chainfire"
+ssh UPGRADED_NODE "sudo cp /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server.bak /usr/local/bin/chainfire-server"
+ssh UPGRADED_NODE "sudo systemctl start chainfire"
+
+# Wait for cluster to stabilize
+sleep 30
+
+# Verify quorum restored
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://node1:2379 status
+```
+
+### Issue: Performance degradation after upgrade
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Increased write latency
+- Higher CPU/memory usage
+
+**Resolution:**

+
+## Maintenance Windows
+
+### Zero-Downtime Upgrade (Recommended)
+
+For clusters with 3+ nodes and applications using client-side retry:
+- No maintenance window required
+- Upgrade during normal business hours
+- Monitor closely
+
+### Scheduled Maintenance Window
+
+For critical production systems or <3 node clusters:
+```bash
+# 1. Notify users 24 hours in advance
+# 2. Schedule 2-hour maintenance window
+# 3. Set service to read-only mode (if supported):
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 set-read-only true
+
+# 4. Perform upgrade (faster without writes)
+
+# 5. Disable read-only mode:
+chainfire-client --endpoint http://LEADER_IP:2379 set-read-only false
+```

+  **Bet 1 Probe Methodology:**
+  - criterion.rs provides statistical rigor (variance analysis, outlier detection)
+  - Compare against published etcd benchmarks: https://etcd.io/docs/v3.5/op-guide/performance/
+  - Compare against TiKV benchmarks: https://docs.pingcap.com/tidb/stable/benchmark-tidb-using-sysbench
+  - Target: 50% of reference (etcd/TiKV) for MVP, parity for 1.0
+  - Key insight: Raft consensus overhead similar, storage layer is differentiator
+
+  **Test Infrastructure:**
+  - NixOS VMs for isolated multi-node cluster testing
+  - `cargo bench` with criterion for reproducible results
+  - CI integration: run nightly, track regression over time
+
+  **S4 is P0** because Bet 1 is a core project hypothesis that must be validated.
