Manual, documented bare-metal Proxmox install + cloud-init template build (deliberately not automated — a fragile one-time step). Terraform/OpenTofu config creates rn-platform-01/rn-lab-host-01 from that template via the bpg/proxmox provider, with configurable (not hardcoded) VM sizing. Validated: tofu fmt, tofu init -backend=false (real provider download), tofu validate -> Success. No paid state backend required (local state).

Proxmox — manual, one-time steps
Deliberately NOT automated (Phase 4 §21: "do not over-automate bare-metal Proxmox installation if it becomes fragile" — a broken automated install of the one host that IS the only way in is a much worse failure mode than a documented manual step reviewed by a human once).
1. Install Proxmox VE
Standard ISO install on the Hetzner dedicated server, once purchased. Follow Proxmox's own
install guide. Full checklist: docs/PRODUCTION_DEPLOYMENT.md §1-2.
2. Build the cloud-init VM template
One-time, either via virt-customize/manual, or Packer if already a comfortable tool here:
# On the Proxmox host, after downloading an Ubuntu 22.04 cloud image:
qm create 9000 --name ubuntu-22.04-cloudinit --memory 2048 --cores 2 --net0 virtio,bridge=vmbr0
qm importdisk 9000 jammy-server-cloudimg-amd64.img local-zfs
qm set 9000 --scsihw virtio-scsi-pci --scsi0 local-zfs:vm-9000-disk-0
qm set 9000 --ide2 local-zfs:cloudinit
qm set 9000 --boot c --bootdisk scsi0
qm set 9000 --serial0 socket --vga serial0
qm set 9000 --agent enabled=1
qm template 9000
Then apply infra/proxmox/cloud-init/user-data.yaml as the template's default cloud-init
user-data (Proxmox's own cloud-init snippet mechanism — Datacenter -> Storage -> snippets).
3. Hand off to Terraform + Ansible
Once the template exists and tagged template (matching infra/terraform/main.tf's data
source filter), infra/terraform/ can clone rn-platform-01/rn-lab-host-01 from it, and
infra/ansible/site.yml configures them. Neither of those needs further Proxmox-console work
after this point — see docs/RUNBOOK_FIRST_DEPLOYMENT.md.
4. Proxmox host firewall
Apply infra/firewall/proxmox-host.rules manually (rendered with real values) — see that
file's own header comment for why this one ruleset stays a manual apply, unlike the two VMs'.
