 102` said `stopped` the whole time. **Only a host reboot clears it.** It is the
 same class of fault as the August freeze: VFIO plus this T400.
 
-**Reboot planned for the evening of 2026-09-24 with Prime on site.** Checklist:
-1. Cluster: rebooting makes esh-pve-nas's `/etc/pve` read-only until this node is
-   back (guests keep running). Accept that, or run `pvecm expected 1` there first.
-2. After boot, `lvremove pve/vm-102-disk-1 pve/vm-102-disk-2`, then confirm
-   ~16 GB RAM is freed and nothing holds `01:00.0`. The T400 stays bound to
-   vfio-pci, unassigned.
-3. esh-docker-vm: watch the known NFS boot race and the traefik restart and
-   crowdsec fail-closed recovery (auto-memory incident notes). DNS for
-   esh-userland comes back with this host.
-4. If Prime cables an onboard RJ45 (the **I226-LM** at `59:00.0` is the AMT port),
-   provision AMT in MEBx during the same window. See the vPro section.
+**Done 2026-09-24 2119–2137 (Prime on site).** Guests were shut down cleanly and
+the host was powered off. The T400 was **removed** and replaced by an **NVIDIA RTX
+2000 / 2000E Ada** (`01:00.0`, `10de:28b0`, subsystem `10de:1871`). The host was
+back at 2136:49. The reboot cleared the hung `kvm -id 102`, and the two leftover
+LVs were then removed; host RAM in use fell to ~4 GB before esh-vm-docker was
+fully up. esh-vm-docker, esh-vm-db and esh-scale all started by themselves.
+esh-vm-docker's NFS (`/mnt/books`, `/mnt/backup`) mounted, traefik served with no
+403s, and AdGuard resolved.
+
+The new card has **no driver bound**. `/etc/modprobe.d` still lists the T400's IDs
+for vfio-pci (`10de:1ff2,10de:10fa`), which no longer match anything; harmless, but
+clean it up when the card's use is decided. The intended use is a local
+embedding endpoint.
