One ru-vps housekeeping sweep (2026-09-02/03):
- playbooks/ru-vps-base.yml (new): adopt the Caddy compose stack into Ansible
(pinned image by digest, homelab-caddy.service), and manage the corosync-qnetd
UFW rule - allow 5403/tcp from homelab_pve_egress_ip, drop the stale rule for
the retired ZeroTier 10.122.62.0/24. The qdevice had gone silent because its
only allowed path was the decommissioned ZeroTier network.
- group_vars/all/main.yml: homelab_pve_egress_ip (the NATed home egress the PVE
nodes reach corosync-qnetd from - a direct path that does not depend on the
OpenVPN tunnel). Marked dynamic: a change silently re-breaks the qdevice.
- playbooks/status.yml: CLUSTER QUORUM section (pvecm status per PVE node) so a
repeat failure is visible. Also drops the memoir-bot unit list and moves the
gitea offsite-restic unit to the gitea host (see the OpenTofu-migration commit).
- playbooks/ru-vps-zerotier-decommission.yml (new): stop the zerotier container,
disable ssh-zt22.service, remove the interface/9993/9001/10.122.62.0/24 UFW
rules. Node identity and data are kept; removal is a separate step.

One command to see the state of everything: reachability, uptime, disk
usage, service unit states, failed units, pct list on the Proxmox nodes,
OpenVPN transport health, and the last run of each backup job.
An unreachable host is reported as data, not as a run failure, so a
single host being down still produces a full summary. Every command is
changed_when: false with check_mode: false, so the playbook is read-only
and works under --check. Backup freshness is read from what systemd
already recorded rather than by invoking the audit scripts, which would
hit PBS and Yandex Disk and take locks.
Service units are derived from inventory groups where possible; only
app-specific units need the per-host map, and each was taken from the
playbook or role that installs it.
Verified against live infrastructure: 15 hosts, changed=0.
