Why reinvent the wheel? https://github.com/lablabs/ansible-role-rke2

facepalm

we probably just didn't find this lol

too late, wheel is already reinvented

😆 1

eww, Keepalived

😛

other than that we might have a look at it... we have an external haproxy cluster...

Then skip the keepalived part 🙂 The role seems to be fairly well written and maintained

Don't actually mind keepalived

I just am obligated to pretend to hate it because I'm a pacemaker fanboi

thus the 😛

Me either, it's a great tool, but wouldn't use it for this.

much rather use a real 3-node haproxy cluster with pacemaker in front

and front all the k8s apis with that

but I can probably do that with this role/playbook

idk, the role my friend wrote might be "simpler" though

and tarball installation method just feels wrong to me

Yes but it's flexible, presumably why they chose that.

nods

My reasoning for disliking it isn't based in any real grounding

it just... doesn't sit right with me lol

I get it.

anyways, we'll give it a try 😄

if it's more reliable than what we built we'll just call what we built an experiment and deprecate it probably
