nh3-pve and esh-pve are the same Minisforum MS-01 (BIOS AHWSA.1.17). With a
card in the x16 slot its root port takes bus 01 and every NIC moves down a
bus (measured on esh-pve), so predictable names change (enp2s0f0np0 ->
enp3s0f0np0 etc.) and vmbr0 would boot with no uplink. systemd .link files
now pin all NICs by MAC, baked into every initramfs and synced to the ESP;
udev confirms the files apply. The AMT-capable I226-LM (enp88s0) leaves
vmbr0's bridge-ports in the file (next boot), so cabling it for AMT cannot
loop the STP-less bridge.
Also: documented the NanoKVM (https://10.100.250.171) as nh3-pve's console
OOB and that AMT is not wired; nh3-dev's Beszel agent no longer binds NAS
shares (it died on the last NH3 cold start); post-boot checklist in
persistent-memory.
After the 2026-09-24 NH3 power outage every NFS line from nh3-nas failed at
boot: nh3-docker's /mnt/compose and /mnt/backup, and nh3-dev's /mnt/backup.
The NAS is the slowest box to serve NFS, and the plain fstab mounts stayed
down until remounted by hand. nh3-dev's /mnt/smithy already used
x-systemd.automount, and the same boot shows it self-healing on its next
access. playbooks/nh3-nfs-automount.yaml brings the other lines to that
shape (_netdev,nofail,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.mount-timeout=30).
Hard-mount semantics are unchanged; only WHEN the mount happens moves.
Applied and read back on nh3-docker and nh3-dev: every nh3-nas line carries
automount, each automount unit is active, and each share is NFS-mounted after
access. A second run on nh3-docker is a no-op. The fstab check judges only
errors the rewrite ADDS, because nh3-dev's installer cdrom line has a
pre-existing verify error. The first run caught that and aborted without
writing.
servers/nh3-pve/README.md now lists each guest's expected state after a
power loss: nh3-laser is on-demand and stays off (Prime), pbs-nh3 now has
onboot=1 (it had none and stayed down), and pfi-gx10 is bare metal that
does not auto-power-on.
pfi-pve (Anaheim), nh3-pve (NH), esh-pve + esh-pve-nas (ESH home lab) now
have servers/<host>/ entries with ssh-target files, README stubs, and
first snapshots. Register all four via add-host.sh + ssh-copy-id; SSH
auth is root@<name> with key-based access.
Fix a resolver bug in the three workspace scripts: previously, when a
hostname resolved via /etc/hosts, resolve_target returned the bare name
and ssh dropped the user prefix stored in ssh-target (connecting as the
wrong user). Now ssh-target wins whenever it's present, since it can
carry user@ or port info that /etc/hosts + ssh_config cannot. Falls back
to the dir name only when no ssh-target file exists.
CLAUDE.md and README.md split the fleet table into Docker hosts vs
hypervisors with an explicit placement rule: don't deploy Docker stacks
on PVE hosts; capture host-level detail with server_inspect.sh, use
Proxmox-native tooling (qm list, pvesh, zpool) for VM/storage audits.
