---

## Executive Summary

### Mode: **PRODUCTION** ✅
- System is in **PRODUCTION MODE** (not dry-run)
- VMs deployed in `examples/production/` directory
- All VMs marked with `environment: "production"`

### Critical Status: **BLOCKED** 🔴
- **0 VMs created** on Proxmox (all 30 VMs pending)

- **Resource over-allocation** detected

---

## 🔴 CRITICAL ISSUES

### 1. Authentication Errors (BLOCKING)
**Severity**: 🔴 **CRITICAL**  
**Status**: **ACTIVE**  
**Impact**: **BLOCKS ALL VM CREATION**

**Details**:
- Recent logs show "invalid PVE ticket" errors
- Node health checks failing for both ML110-01 and R630-01
- Error: `401 permission denied - invalid PVE ticket`
- Token authentication being used but still failing

**Evidence**:
```
2025-12-13T17:57:01Z ERROR node health check failed
GET /nodes/r630-01/status failed: 401 permission denied - invalid PVE ticket
```

**Root Cause**:
- Cookie header fix may not be working correctly
- Token may be invalid or expired
- Provider may not be using latest code

**Action Required**: **URGENT**
1. Verify token is valid and not expired
2. Test token authentication manually
3. Verify provider is using latest code
4. Check token permissions on Proxmox

---

### 2. No VMs Created (BLOCKED)
**Severity**: 🔴 **CRITICAL**  
**Status**: **BLOCKED**  
**Impact**: **ZERO PROGRESS**

**Details**:
- Total VMs: 30
- VMs with VMID: 0
- All VMs stuck in pending state
- Blocked by authentication errors

**Action Required**: **URGENT**
- Fix authentication issue (Issue #1)
- Once fixed, VMs should start creating

---

### 3. Resource Over-Allocation
**Severity**: 🟡 **HIGH**  
**Status**: **DETECTED**  
**Impact**: **POTENTIAL DEPLOYMENT FAILURES**

**Details**:

#### ML110-01
- **Allocated**: 24 CPU cores
- **Available**: 6 CPU cores
- **Over-allocation**: **4x** (400% over capacity)
- **Memory Allocated**: 48 GiB
- **Memory Available**: 256 GiB
- **Memory Status**: ✅ Within limits

#### R630-01
- **Allocated**: 62 CPU cores
- **Available**: 52 CPU cores
- **Over-allocation**: **1.2x** (20% over capacity)
- **Memory Allocated**: 220 GiB
- **Memory Available**: 768 GiB
- **Memory Status**: ✅ Within limits

**Action Required**: **HIGH PRIORITY**
1. Review VM CPU allocations
2. Reduce CPU allocations to fit within node capacity
3. Consider moving more VMs to R630-01
4. Verify deployment plan matches actual allocations

---

### 4. VM Without Node Assignment
**Severity**: 🟡 **MEDIUM**  
**Status**: **DETECTED**  
**Impact**: **VM CANNOT BE CREATED**

**Details**:
- 1 VM found without node assignment
- VM cannot be created without node specification

**Action Required**: **MEDIUM PRIORITY**
1. Identify the VM without node
2. Assign appropriate node
3. Verify all VMs have node assignments

---

## 🟡 MEDIUM PRIORITY ISSUES

### 5. ProviderConfig Name Mismatch
**Severity**: 🟡 **MEDIUM**  
**Status**: **DETECTED**  
**Impact**: **CONFIGURATION CONFUSION**

**Details**:
- ProviderConfig name: `proxmox-provider-config`
- Scripts may reference `default`
- No functional impact but causes confusion

**Action Required**: **LOW PRIORITY**
- Update documentation to use correct name
- Verify all references use correct name

---

### 6. Network Connectivity Test Failed
**Severity**: 🟡 **MEDIUM**  
**Status**: **INCONCLUSIVE**  
**Impact**: **UNCERTAIN**

**Details**:
- Connectivity test command had parsing issues
- Actual connectivity status unknown
- Provider logs show connection attempts

**Action Required**: **MEDIUM PRIORITY**
- Test connectivity manually
- Verify endpoints are reachable
- Check network configuration

---

## ✅ POSITIVE FINDINGS
