Personal lab / Documented architecture

The environment
behind the evidence.

A nonproduction space for Windows infrastructure, domain integration, virtualization, and hybrid-management work. This is a map of documented systems across captures; simultaneous placement and continuous operation are not asserted.

Identity and client relationships

DC01 · Domain services

Retained inventory summary: Windows Server 2022, AD DS, DNS, DHCP, and Group Policy Management. Address: 10.10.20.10.

Inspect DC01 inventory

WS01 · Windows client

Retained inventory summary: Windows 10 Pro, domain membership, successful secure channel, and DNS/DHCP using DC01.

Inspect WS01 relationship

Linux01 · AD authentication

Retained remediation record: SSSD configuration and responder conflict correction, followed by AD identity lookup and SSH validation.

Inspect Linux01 validation

The inventory and Linux summaries are sanitized derivatives that identify upstream commits and hashes. The underlying raw inventory/transcripts are not independently supplied in this package.

Virtualization and management layers

Proxmox restore drill

The summary records a Linux01 restore from source VM 400 to temporary VM 401, network isolation before boot, guest-agent response, and cleanup. It does not include a per-command transcript or a literal final TASK OK line.

VMM01 → HVHOST01 → VM workload

The SCVMM capture shows HVHOST01 managed with status OK and one virtual machine. It supports one nested Hyper-V host rather than a clustered fabric.

Windows Admin Center connections

The screenshot shows six lab connections. HVHOST01 and VMM01 display Connected under Azure Arc Status.

Inspect WAC connections →

Azure Arc hybrid inventory

The retained summary records two Arc-connected Windows Server machines and one SQL Server 2022 Developer instance. It distinguishes direct HVHOST01 checks from portal/WAC observations of VMM01.

Restore and availability boundaries

The broader source set retains PASS, narrow PASS, and INCONCLUSIVE outcomes. The specific linked restore summary supports one isolated drill; recurring restore assurance, RTO/RPO, high availability, production DR readiness, and continuous uptime are not established.
