# A patch applied on top of the controlplane.yaml that `talosctl gen config` # produces (see talos/README.md and docs/02-talos-bootstrap.md for the full # command). Applied identically to all three control-plane nodes. # # --- control-plane-only scheduling --- # These Raspberry Pis run the Kubernetes API, scheduler, and etcd, but not # ordinary application Pods. Keeping workloads on the two dedicated workers # prevents a busy or broken app from competing with the cluster's own control # plane. `false` is Talos's normal default, repeated explicitly because this # five-node layout depends on that separation. # # --- install image --- # All three control planes are Raspberry Pi 4 systems currently installed on # their microSD (`mmcblk0`). The Image Factory schematic contains the # `rpi_generic` ARM64 overlay needed to boot this hardware and the NetBird # system extension used for private overlay connectivity. Keep this custom # installer reference during upgrades or the board-specific boot support and # NetBird binary may be lost. # # --- vip --- # With three control-plane nodes, "the cluster's API server" isn't one # fixed machine anymore — it's whichever of the three happen to be up. # Talos's VIP (Virtual IP) feature solves this: the three nodes # continuously elect one of themselves to answer on this one shared # address, and re-elect within seconds if that node goes down. Point # everything that talks to the cluster (talosctl, kubectl, this repo's # Application manifests) at the VIP, never at one node's own address — # that's what makes losing any single node a non-event instead of an # outage. # # Replace both the interface name and the IP below with your real values # before generating config — see docs/02-talos-bootstrap.md. # # >> Ask Claude to help you pick the VIP address — like the MetalLB pool in # docs/05-metallb.md, it has to be a real, unused address on your LAN, # outside your DHCP range. cluster: allowSchedulingOnControlPlanes: false machine: install: disk: /dev/mmcblk0 image: "factory.talos.dev/metal-installer/\ d093bb68c464b87cc637765535dde5f68fbb040da44280617dd11a42d6c03988:v1.13.8" network: interfaces: # Raspberry Pi 4's built-in Ethernet interface is named `end0` by # Talos.
