Next Actions

Monitor VM Creation

1. Watch Provider Logs:

   kubectl logs -n crossplane-system -l app=crossplane-provider-proxmox -f
   

2. Check VM Status:

   kubectl get proxmoxvm -A -w
   

3. Verify on Proxmox:

   ./scripts/ssh-ml110-01.sh 'qm list'
   ./scripts/ssh-r630-01.sh 'qm list'
   

Expected Behavior

• No More 401 Errors: Token authentication should work
• VM Creation: VMs should start being created on Proxmox
• VMIDs: VMs will show VMID as they're created
• Timeline: 30-60 minutes for all 25 VMs

---

Troubleshooting

If Authentication Still Fails

1. Check Logs:

   kubectl logs -n crossplane-system -l app=crossplane-provider-proxmox -f | grep -i auth
   

2. Verify Image:

   kubectl describe pod -n crossplane-system -l app=crossplane-provider-proxmox | grep Image
   

3. Check Credentials:

   kubectl get secret proxmox-credentials -n crossplane-system -o yaml
   

If Build Fails

1. Check Go Version: Ensure Docker has Go 1.21+
2. Check Dependencies: Run go mod download in container
3. Check Syntax: Verify all Go files compile

---

Summary

✅ All Next Steps Completed

• Build errors fixed
• Provider built successfully
• Image loaded into kind cluster
• Provider pod restarted
• Token authentication fix deployed

Status: ✅ READY FOR VM CREATION

The provider is now running with the token authentication fix. Monitor the logs and VM status to verify VMs are being created successfully.
