Networking & DNS
- Primary DNS:
172.16.4.8 (Technitium, romulus) — authoritative for holdenitdown.net, rholden.dev, rholden.me
- Secondary DNS:
172.16.3.8 (Technitium, pantheon) — replicates from primary
- ExternalDNS: RFC2136 TSIG to primary at
172.16.4.8 (TSIG key: external-dns)
- TLS: cert-manager + Let's Encrypt, DNS-01 via Cloudflare; wildcards for
*.holdenitdown.net, *.romulus.holdenitdown.net, *.pantheon.holdenitdown.net, *.rholden.dev, *.rholden.me
- Ingress: Traefik (class
internal) + kgateway/Envoy (GatewayClass kgateway) with Gateway API
- Both clusters have a
default-gateway in namespace ingress
- Use
HTTPRoute (Gateway API) for new services, not Ingress
- Cloudflare Tunnel (romulus): exposes
overseerr.rholden.dev and home.rholden.dev to the public internet
Storage
- Ceph RGW S3 (romulus):
s3.romulus.holdenitdown.net and *.s3.romulus.holdenitdown.net
- Ceph RGW S3 (pantheon):
s3.pantheon.holdenitdown.net and *.s3.pantheon.holdenitdown.net
- Pulumi state bucket:
pulumi-state on both Ceph RGWs
- Velero backup bucket:
cluster-backup on Ceph RGW + NFS at 172.16.4.10:/export/backup/cluster
- Walter session storage: S3 buckets on
s3.pantheon.holdenitdown.net
Pulumi Stacks
Managed as TypeScript micro-stacks in the homelab repo. Stack names are <program>.<cluster>, e.g. grafana.pantheon.
Key programs: ingress, dns, storage, forgejo, authentik, bitwarden, monitoring, tekton, buildkit, nats, walter, ai-inference, agent-gateway, firecrawl, immich, nvr, opencode, cuthulu, lobechat, vpn.
Run stacks via p5 (workspace manager) or pulumi up from within the program directory.
HTTPRoute Pattern (Gateway API)
apiVersion: gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: HTTPRoute
metadata:
name: my-service
namespace: my-namespace
spec:
parentRefs:
- name: default-gateway
namespace: ingress
hostnames:
- my-service.holdenitdown.net
rules:
- backendRefs:
- name: my-service
port: 8080
For gRPC (h2c): set appProtocol: kubernetes.io/h2c on the Service port and add timeouts: { request: "0s" } on the HTTPRoute rule for streaming connections.
Agent Gateway Models (self-hosted + external)
Agent Gateway at agent-gateway.holdenitdown.net routes to:
chutes/kimi-k2, chutes/qwen3-235b, chutes/glm-5Qwen/Qwen3-Embedding-4B — self-hosted NVIDIA CUDA (mars node)- Cloud: Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT via API keys
