Both defects were live on both demo boxes: the recipe said namespace "root" while
storage.cfg said demo-felhom/demo-hp, and it never named which of two content=backup
dir storages holds the local archives.
R-106: the namespace came from the listed snapshot, but PBS omits `ns` per item once
the list is namespace-scoped, so it was always empty and normalised to "root". It now
resolves from the pbs STORAGE (storage.cfg's `namespace`) — the same field vzdump makes
PVE read, so the recipe cannot disagree with the backup.
R-109: backup_target resolves from the primary tier of cfg.Backup.BackupTiers(), the
function the scheduler consults, and carries the mountpoint that separates /mnt/hdd_1
from /var/lib/vz. The resolver reports the tier IN EFFECT (daemon-start config), not
agent.json on disk — a target move rewrites the file and deliberately does not restart.
Unresolvable is recorded as unresolvable: resolved|unknown plus a distinct reason,
never a default, an empty string, or a placeholder.
Needs hub v0.83.0 — AssembleDRRecipe allow-lists top-level keys, so backup_target
would otherwise be stored intact and dropped before any operator saw it.
9 tests, 4 red-proofs (each mutation asserted to have landed). Suite rc=0, 29 ok.
The absent-drive alarm was generic while its recovery was specific -- a pair an
operator cannot match. Mechanism now measured, not reasoned (felhom.eu
audits/DIAG-r116-disks-payload-2026-07-30.md): with the device gone /disks returns
4 rows, not 3. The drive appears TWICE and the two facts the controller needs are
on different rows -- the Observe row has backup_target:true but mount_path:"" and
guest_path:"" (so driveTargetByPath registers NO key from it), while the registry
row owns /mnt/felhom-drives/<name>, the key the gate looks up, with BackupTarget
absent from its struct literal => false.
WHY v0.115.0 WAS INERT: its fallback computed StablePathForRaw(t.MountPath), and in
the absent state MountPath is ALSO "" -- emptied by the same exactMount failure
that empties BackingDevice. It assigned nothing. Its test passed because the fixture
supplied a MountPath production never supplies, and the harness left DriveTargets
nil so the union loop never ran. Both corrected here; red-proof 1 replays v0.115.0's
exact code against the real shape and it fails.
THE JOIN, which was the hard part: with the device gone the two records share no
runtime field -- no mount, no backing device, and the Observe row's DurableID has
degraded off the fs-UUID. They share CONFIGURATION: storage.cfg's path on one side,
the .mount unit's Where on the other, both yielding the same stable guest path. New
hub.StorageTarget.ConfigPath (json:"-" -- that struct is a cross-repo contract
pinned by the golden + contract_test key-set comparison, and nothing off-box needs
the value), set from s.Path in observe.go, consulted in disks.go only after MountPath
so the present-state path is byte-identical, plus a guest-path arm on the union dedup
so exactly one row carries the drive.
WHY NEITHER OBVIOUS OPTION WAS TAKEN -- both regress R-114, which shipped yesterday.
backup_target_offer.go:79 reads (BackupTarget && MountPath != "") as "a real
drive with its own mountpoint -- healthy" and returns before its TargetAbsent
branch. Back-filling MountPath onto the Observe row (the smallest change, and the
spec's lean) and teaching the registry row the flag (its MountPath is non-empty, read
from the stale unit file) BOTH manufacture that row while the drive is missing, which
would have told the customer the backup target is fine while its drive is gone.
R-114's correctness rests on the absent-state rows not combining the flag with a
mount path; that coupling was invisible until the payload existed. Pinned by
TestAbsentTargetKeepsR114DegradedSignal.
Role unchanged, BoundUnderParent conjunction not widened, no wire field changed.
Suppressing the registry row in the absent state also removes its false
state:"attached" and its root-filesystem-derived total_bytes -- R-118's symptom
goes incidentally; R-118 is NOT fixed and stays open.
Tests 845 -> 849, suite rc=0 read separately from this commit. Four red-proofs, each
mutation asserted to have landed first.
NOT live-validated at this commit: publish+vouch, C5, discrimination, over-correction.
Implements SPIKE-smart-coverage-2026-07-25 fixes B+A (additive; MinAgent unchanged).
Fix B: storage.SmartReader.SMARTForBacking wired into the /disks union path (localapi
Smart seam) so registry/USB drives get a real SMART read (watchdog Known stays
enrich-free). Fix A: smartDeviceFor resolves dm/LVM to the whole disk via
/sys/block/<dm>/slaves (recursive; skips >1-disk); the builtin local dir on the LVM
root gets a SMART-only device from its containing filesystem (never touches
backing/durable_id). SmartSummary.ModelName captured from smartctl. Fix C (-d sat)
stays rejected. Tests + red-proofs (dm multi-disk skip, enrich smartHint, union
routing); Known-path-never-SMARTs asserted.
Surfaced preparing the live USB validation on demo-felhom:
- observe.go: an unmounted removable dir-storage no longer falls through to the ROOT fs
for its backing device/UUID — durable_id was becoming uuid:<root-uuid> (a DR mis-id that
would re-attach the wrong disk). Now derived only from the target's own mountpoint;
unmounted → no device + stable store:<name> durable_id. Removed containingMountDevice.
- watchdog.go: remember the fs-UUID observed while attached and backfill it onto the
re-mount target, so re-mount works even if the known-set cache refreshed mid-drop
(doc 03 §7 "sourced from the existing definition").

Fill the slice-3 storage_targets stub and add the fast-poll storage watchdog.
Read-only this phase; the host-root surface (mounts/SMART/grow/destructive gate)
is Phase B. Hub-owned desired manifest is slice 10, so reconcile against it is
built-but-unfed.
- internal/storage: StorageTarget wire contract, durable_id derivation per type,
HostReader seam (procfs/sysfs, root-free), Observer (storage_targets from
ListStorage/NodeStorage + host reads, lvmthin thin-pool fill), and the watchdog
(third daemon goroutine; debounced out-of-band report on a known target's
attach/disconnect transition).
- proxmox.Storage: additive parse-only config fields (durable_id sources).
- collector StorageObserver seam; Loop.SetTrigger out-of-band report; daemon runs
the watchdog as a third goroutine; StorageConfig knobs.
- cross-repo golden kept byte-identical with felhom.eu/hub; bidirectional key-set test.
