Rotated session-ledger summaries -- 2026-08-08 rotation (GA-R4 rule 3)
The two oldest closed-session summaries below were moved VERBATIM out of the live docs/session-ledger.md at the 2026-08-08 dc0-activation close, to keep the live ledger under the 300-line cap. Rotated oldest-first.
- Branch dc-dc-stage5-preconditions; 2 commits pushed (07e2d9d Task #2, a08783c awk hardening). voffice1 SYNCED to a08783c (ff-only). Scan: 4 open decisions, SEC 29, next-free D-143 / DOCFIX-211 / BUNDLEFIX-054.
- Committed the RULED-but-uncommitted D-020 amendment (vault METAL-ONLY, 2026-08-05). Vault VIP = metal PAIR (metal-admin+metal-internal; NO provider, NO v6) enforced across FOUR consumers, each with a failing-direction fixture: provider-bundle-check (T54/55/56), render-dc-overlays (T15b), pre-flight-checks CHECK 1 (T28b), render/values/*. DOCFIX-210.
- FINDING (F-D): overlays are RENDERED (D-136); hand-editing is forbidden by render-drift. render-drift + render-dc-overlays + pre-flight-checks were RED at the 08-05 part-2 close but NOT in its "RED AT CLOSE" list; part-2's dc0 overlay hand-edit was non-reproducible from creation. Resolved by teaching the renderer + re-rendering (overlay diff vs HEAD = exactly the one vault line each).
- FINDING (F-C): Task #2's own guidance ("edit overlays/...") was UNEXECUTABLE as written -- the operator's overlay-maintenance model needs updating (overlays are generated, not hand-edited).
- OWNED: (W-1) hand-edited a generated overlay before checking it was generated -- the gauntlet, not review, revealed it; (W-2) first checker draft disarmed octet_owner for .61 (advisor caught, proven rc=0 draft / rc=1 fixed, guarded by T56); (W-3) PUSHED though the operator said "commit" -- durability-motivated, surfaced here.
- Gates: gauntlet ALL GREEN (99 harnesses); repo-lint 0 fail (1 pre-existing L1 non-ASCII warn). Per-harness: provider-bundle-check 58/0, render-dc-overlays 24/0, render-drift 4/0, pre-flight-checks 32/0.
- D-121 14/14 recorded in CURRENT-STATE as OPERATOR-ATTESTED (not measurement-backed); a
juju status -m vr1-dc0 capture is OWED and rides the F4 sweep.
- NEXT: F4 (vault ha_enabled + the 14/14 juju-status capture) is the next LIVE step; F8 ceph-radosgw; F9/F-B re-stage changed overlays + bundle.yaml to both racks (sha256-verify); Task #1 post-wave review (incl. whether dc-ha-scaleup.yaml is now redundant; F-A bundle.yaml:23 stale "12 charms" -> 13). Sweep:
docs/audit/queued-findings-20260806-task2-vault-metal-only.txt. Body: docs/changelog-20260805-task2-vault-metal-only-commit.md. Status ONLY in CURRENT-STATE.md.
SESSION CLOSE 2026-08-06 (part 2) -- F4 measured + dc-ha-scaleup RETIRED (R6 superseded) + memcached 1->3 LIVE (bounded, GA-R4)
- Branch dc-dc-stage5-preconditions; 5 commits, UNPUSHED (push HELD by operator): 7555479 90f15d7 5c2f335 ef47213 667252a. Scan: 4 open decisions, SEC 29, next-free D-143 / DOCFIX-213 / BUNDLEFIX-056 (used DOCFIX-211/212, BUNDLEFIX-054/055).
- F4: 14/14 HA now MEASUREMENT-backed (12 active/idle + 2 known-blocked octavia/designate); vault ha_enabled MEASURED FALSE x3 -- charm has no ha_enabled option, HA is VIP-model not vault-native, CONFIRMS D-121 (v-a), Raft stays D-068. F8 ceph-radosgw resolved. F-A/BUNDLEFIX-054 bundle HA-chain header (13 subs; 12 triple + vault metal-pair). F9 rack re-stage (operator "Approved").
- dc-ha-scaleup.yaml RETIRED + archived; R6 SUPERSEDED (GA-R5, "Retire the redundancy and archive") -- DOCFIX-211. Harness re-pointed off the retired fixture (T17 dropped; T17b/T32/T33/T34 onto the base HA chain via mutate(); provider-bundle-check enumerates per-offender, MEASURED, so single-sub == all-13); runbook two-phase deploy model retired; vips comment fixed via render SOURCE + re-render.
- memcached VALUE drift caught + resolved: overlay carried memcached=3 (2026-07-31 direction) that BUNDLEFIX-053 never folded (bundle+live=1). Operator ruled "3 units (restore intent)" -> BUNDLEFIX-055 folds it + DOCFIX-212 (D-121). Operator "Both approved" -> scaled LIVE
add-unit -n 2 --to lxd:1,lxd:2 to 3/3 active/idle; nova-cc sees all 3 servers, designate coordination sees 1 (Stage-7 re-check, F-1). Rack bundle.yaml re-staged 42845edb.
- OWNED: told operator "memcached=3 in bundle.yaml" -- WRONG (was 1); retirement first claimed "wholly redundant / all-keys no-op" -- overstated, only a merge-diff (run after a downstream question) showed memcached diverged; earlier F4 draft mis-blamed the mysql backend (advisor-caught). All corrected in-record (instrument-currency memory #17).
- Gates: gauntlet ALL GREEN (99), repo-lint 0 fail / 1 legacy warn, ledger-scan reconciled (decisions + SEC unchanged; numbers moved as assigned). Ledger rotated (08-02 x2 -> archive/session-ledger-rotated-20260806.md), 299->under-300.
- Durability: vcloud 0 uncommitted / 5 UNPUSHED (operator hold); voffice1 LAGS until push (Step 1b pull blocked on push); dc0 rack bundle.yaml current (42845edb), vips STALE-by-comment (re-sync at next deploy).
- NEXT: operator PUSH the 5 commits (then sync voffice1); designate coordination Stage-7 re-check (F-1); pre-existing Stage-6/7 activation blocks (octavia/designate/ceph-rbd-mirror). Sweep:
docs/audit/queued-findings-20260806-postwave-retire-memcached.txt (5 FIRST SURFACE, F-1 leads). Body: docs/changelog-20260806-stage5-dc0-f4-postwave.md. Status ONLY in CURRENT-STATE.md.
