STATUS — what works, what's broken, what's next
Ready for Tester 2? Yes — tell the friend go (hand-over list: documentation/pilot/TESTER2-handover.md).
Updated 2026-10-26 (night). Saved and proven tonight, not released: kept data never offers a live app's folder; a reinstalled box backs up off-site at once; app-file import keeps links and owners and works again for MariaDB apps; Go 1.27.3. D55's window runs tonight.
What works
- The Plex attack (10-17 → 10-23) did not reach Felhom's secrets (R-1241).
- A box installs from nothing with the public installer, links to the hub, and moves to the floor by itself (map A1, A3, A4).
- 65 catalog apps install, update one tested step at a time, and a failed update undoes itself (map B1, B3, B4, B6).
- Backups: database dumps, a second-drive copy, an off-site copy and whole-box copies; restore tests run by themselves (map C1–C4, A17, A18).
- A restore brings an app back with its data and its database password; a failed or cut restore puts the app back as it was; a restore that does not start says so and keeps both copies (map C5, D6, D7, D16).
- After a power cut the box starts by itself, cleans up a half-written backup, and Immich repairs broken photos (map C10, F12).
- A second drive is offered as the backup target; media apps see every drive; a one-disk box gets its own data area (map D1, D13, D15).
- The three test boxes answer only over https; the hub's key opens nothing on a box; password guesses are counted (map E12, E13, E17).
- A hacked app that uploads or computes more than it explains alarms only you; each box tests its upload weekly; qBittorrent gets half (map F13).
- An urgent security fix reaches the boxes at night after one test on the test box; the box backs up first and undoes a failed update (map B23).
- The hub mails alarms and recoveries and keeps a weekly whole-box copy on ep0; CC uses its own limited token (map F1, F11, G15).
What is broken
- P1: any hacked app on DooPlex can read the hub's nightly backups, and maybe the signing keys (R-1241, homelab session); about 12 homelab logins still use a password that was public, and the public Gitea repo is not decided (R-925, yours).
- Tester 2 off since 10-04: old emergency password, no off-site check, no bootstrap (R-1139, R-1104, R-862). Scratch box: no agent features (R-1083).
- DooPlex: something sets the shared checkout to „bare" (R-935).
What we work on
- Built, not released (Tuesday's block, each on your yes): R-1291, R-1220, R-1232, R-1187, R-1219, R-1298, R-972, R-1285. R-1218 needs you: off-site off on Tester 1 for minutes (hub customer page), or it leaves the release.
- Dated checks, run by CC. 2026-10-27: the line test on a seeding box, DooPlex's qBittorrent as the peer (R-1250, your yes). 2026-10-30: D35, website and installer to Cloudflare, starts (R-1228, ruled yes).
Waiting on you — decide
Newest first. CC's pick is in the „Pick" column. Each row also has its full text in the register.
| # | Row | Question | Pick (why) | The other option costs | If you do nothing | Blocked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| D38 | R-1235 | Put the newest golden (637 MB) into the nightly release copy on ep0 too? | Yes (a new install after a DooPlex loss needs it; it fits under the 3 GB cap) | leave it out: after a loss, no new install until a golden is rebuilt and vouched | the same | — |
| D37 | R-1236 | Raise Gitea's memory limit from 1 GiB to 2 GiB? It was killed for memory 4 times in 17 days, once during today's release. | Yes (DooPlex has the RAM; a DooPlex change, so yours) | keep 1 GiB: a restart in release hours fails box updates and CI for a minute | the same | — |
| D9 | R-1062 | Split the N100's USB drive in two, for multi-drive tests? | No — keep one drive (the lived-in box keeps its nightly whole-box backup) | Split: the box loses its local whole-box backup, or you buy a second drive first | it stays one drive; multi-drive tests stay on Tester 1 | — |
| D7 | R-990, R-989 | Rule on the forum ideas and the selfh.st ideas now, or park them? | Park them (P4; nothing waits on them) | Rule now: about one hour of reading | nothing changes; the research gets old | — |
Waiting on you — do
Still needed? (yes/no) — CC could not check these. Answer yes or no per line.
- Look at
roms/roms/on the N100's drive in the file manager (R-1099). (since 10-16) - The N100 sheet, about 30 minutes: Plex, the admins in Prowlarr, Sonarr and Radarr, your download sources (
documentation/audits/n100-lived-in-2026-10-15/SHEET.md). (since 10-15) - Look at these demo-hp pages when you have time: Calibre-Web, the file manager, AdventureLog, Plex, the app page, the Plex and Sonarr guides. (since 10-16)
- Remove the test server „plex-k6" from your Plex account (plex.tv → Settings → Authorized Devices). (since 10-15)
- Ask Google to index
https://felhom.eu/sajat-felho-tarhelyin Search Console (R-1035). (since 10-14) - BIOS: on the N100, read „After Power Loss"; on the HP, set „Bypass F1 Prompt on Configuration Changes" to Enable. (since 10-14)
- Pin the first Facebook post (R-917), and look at the new cover in the Facebook phone app (R-919). (since 10-12)
2026-10-26. On the hub's Hosts page, delete Tester4-b5dbbd (CC's test VM of tonight, uninstalled and destroyed; you already deleted Tester4-b5ec39). If not: the hub alarms that the box went silent. After demo-hp's window has run (CC says when, Tuesday morning), revoke the token cc-d55-window (R-1294). New: a nightly security watch mails you (R-1303).
2026-10-23 do list.
- Print the break-glass sheet (
documentation/runbooks/break-glass-sheet.md, the part from „The sheet”, one A4), fill it by hand, keep it outside the home (D32; R-923, R-924). If not: after a DooPlex loss no off-site copy opens. - On the hub's Hosts page: Discard appliance 49. If not: a dead entry alarms.
- Give the homelab session R-1241, R-1242, the lists at the end of
documentation/audits/plex2shell-felhom-impact-2026-10-23/README.mdanddocumentation/audits/dooplex-alarms-2026-10-24/README.md, and an upload alarm on DooPlex'seno1(~100 Mbit/s line; the flood peaked at 905). If not: the next hacked app on DooPlex can read the hub's backups. The rest
- System poster needs a refresh: the new 01:40 „release copy” arrow from DooPlex to ep0 (D33); the hub-database label already says every 6 hours. If not: the drawing misses one copy.
- Rotate the reused homelab logins and decide the Gitea repo's visibility (R-925, P1). (since 10-09)
- Two DooPlex leftovers:
leftovers/2026-10-14/first-post/(keep or delete); thedeny-list edit in homelab-manifests'.claude/settings.json(commit or drop). (since 10-14) - Before the first paying customer: Tandoor's permission (R-789); a lawyer for the licence list and the terms (R-802, R-813); SparkyFitness by e-mail (R-784).
- Later (yours, not urgent): R-1250 (a seeding qBittorrent is never tested), R-1248 (a hard upload cap per app), R-1229 (ArgoCD's sync settings into git), R-862 (Tester 2's bootstrap, when it is back), R-504, R-1071, R-1073, R-1077, R-1042, R-132, R-908, R-779, R-904, R-232, R-433, R-933, R-213, R-832, R-388, R-882, R-883, R-814, R-1056, R-1164, R-930, R-920, R-902.
