Management
eu-fsn-hv3 runs Alpine Linux with a minimal package set (base, tailscale, docker).
Administrative access is typically handled through Tailscale SSH, and deployment management is handled through Portainer Agent. In case out-of-band access is required, SSH can be accessed after changes to the Hetzner firewall rules, and Hetzner provides free KVM access on request.
Basic administrative maintenance tasks are handled via a Makefile.
