The node runs v1.33.13 (snap revision 9067). kubelite logs the #5057 message but has not panicked or restarted, and the dqlite snapshot tuning carried over.
Over the first 40 minutes after the restart: snapshots 24.7 minutes apart instead of ~3, none of 9,445 lease updates took over 4s, and neither the CNPG operator nor the snapshot-controller restarted.
1.34 brings the reworked k8s-dqlite write path, 1.36 a dqlite that can VACUUM the mostly empty datastore. Lists the per-hop checks, the one-way schema migration at 1.34, the components that still need to move for 1.35/1.36, and the staged dqlite tuning script on opti1.
The dqlite SQLite file is ~709 MB with 95% free pages, so every 1,024 commits dqlite writes a ~150 MB snapshot that stalls commits for seconds and makes controllers lose leader election. Plan: larger snapshot threshold in tuning.yaml now, microk8s 1.34+ for the real fix.
All certificates stayed Ready through the five hops, and a test Certificate for s2.rubenhensen.nl was issued by Let's Encrypt over HTTP-01. The 1.19 chart left a duplicate tokenrequest RoleBinding behind, removed by hand.
Envoy Gateway v1.9 needs Kubernetes 1.33, and microk8s 1.32 is out of
upstream support. docs/upgrade-k8s-1.33.md lists what has to move first
and in which order. Renovate is held below Longhorn 1.11.3, since that
and newer releases need Kubernetes 1.34.
