# Quick Start Guide
Get your Azure Stack HCI infrastructure up and running quickly.
## Prerequisites
Before starting, ensure you have:
- Two Proxmox VE hosts with Proxmox VE 7.0+ installed
- Azure subscription with Contributor role
- Azure CLI installed and authenticated
- SSH access to all nodes
- Network connectivity between nodes
See [Prerequisites](prerequisites.md) for detailed requirements.
## Quick Start Steps
### 1. Clone and Configure
```bash
git clone <repository-url>
cd loc_az_hci
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your credentials
```
### 2. Test Connections
```bash
# Test Proxmox connections
./scripts/utils/test-proxmox-connection.sh
# Test Cloudflare (if configured)
./scripts/utils/test-cloudflare-connection.sh
```
### 3. Configure Proxmox Cluster
**On Node 1:**
```bash
export NODE_IP=192.168.1.10
export NODE_GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
export NODE_HOSTNAME=pve-node-1
./infrastructure/proxmox/network-config.sh
./infrastructure/proxmox/cluster-setup.sh
```
**On Node 2:**
```bash
export NODE_IP=192.168.1.11
export NODE_GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
export NODE_HOSTNAME=pve-node-2
export CLUSTER_NODE_IP=192.168.1.10
./infrastructure/proxmox/network-config.sh
export NODE_ROLE=join
./infrastructure/proxmox/cluster-setup.sh
```
### 4. Onboard to Azure Arc
**On each Proxmox node:**
```bash
export RESOURCE_GROUP=HC-Stack
export TENANT_ID=$(az account show --query tenantId -o tsv)
export SUBSCRIPTION_ID=$(az account show --query id -o tsv)
export LOCATION=eastus
./scripts/azure-arc/onboard-proxmox-hosts.sh
```
### 5. Deploy Kubernetes
**On K3s VM:**
```bash
./infrastructure/kubernetes/k3s-install.sh
export RESOURCE_GROUP=HC-Stack
export CLUSTER_NAME=proxmox-k3s-cluster
./infrastructure/kubernetes/arc-onboard-k8s.sh
```
### 6. Deploy Git Server
**Option A: Gitea (Recommended):**
```bash
./infrastructure/gitops/gitea-deploy.sh
```
**Option B: GitLab CE:**
```bash
./infrastructure/gitops/gitlab-deploy.sh
```
### 7. Configure GitOps
1. Create Git repository in your Git server
2. Copy `gitops/` directory to repository
3. Configure GitOps in Azure Portal or using Flux CLI
### 8. Deploy HC Stack Services
Deploy via GitOps (recommended) or manually:
```bash
# Manual deployment
helm install besu ./gitops/apps/besu -n blockchain
helm install firefly ./gitops/apps/firefly -n blockchain
helm install chainlink-ccip ./gitops/apps/chainlink-ccip -n blockchain
helm install blockscout ./gitops/apps/blockscout -n blockchain
helm install cacti ./gitops/apps/cacti -n monitoring
helm install nginx-proxy ./gitops/apps/nginx-proxy -n hc-stack
```

## Connection Information
### Proxmox
- **ML110**: https://192.168.1.206:8006
- **R630**: https://192.168.1.49:8006
- **Username**: root@pam
- **Password**: (from `.env` file: `PVE_ROOT_PASS`)
### Cloudflare
- **Dashboard**: https://dash.cloudflare.com
- **Zero Trust**: https://one.dash.cloudflare.com
- **Tunnel Token**: (from `.env` file: `CLOUDFLARE_TUNNEL_TOKEN`)
## Troubleshooting
### Proxmox Connection Issues
- Verify IP addresses in `.env` file
- Check network connectivity: `ping 192.168.1.206`
- Accept self-signed certificate in browser
### VM Creation Issues
- Ensure sufficient storage on Proxmox host
- Check VM ID availability
- Verify network bridge configuration
### Cloudflare Tunnel Issues
- Verify tunnel token in `.env`
- Check DNS records in Cloudflare Dashboard
- Review tunnel logs: `journalctl -u cloudflared -f`
## Next Steps
After completing the quick start:
1. Review [Deployment Guide](../deployment/deployment-guide.md) for detailed instructions
2. Set up monitoring and alerting
3. Configure backup and disaster recovery
4. Implement security policies
5. Plan for scaling and expansion
