Session body (GA-R2, one per session). Branch dc-dc-stage5-preconditions. Stage 5 OPEN. Status lives ONLY in docs/CURRENT-STATE.md. All live reads were read-only (D-138 rack path); the one owed mutation (F9 rack re-stage) is gated on operator approval, NOT executed unattended (operator-away background session).
juju status -m vr1-dc0 captured FROM the dc0 rack (D-138 path ssh vr1-dc0-rack -> juju). Capture: docs/audit/stage5-dc0-juju-status-14of14-20260806.txt.changelog-20260805-d121-ha-scaleup.md:24, NOT reverse-engineered). HONEST SPLIT (GA-R6 E3, not rounded): 12 active/idle; 2 blocked-at-scale=3 on KNOWN non-HA items -- octavia (configure-resources pending) + designate (nameservers must be set). Model-wide 152 active/idle, 7 blocked, 1 unknown (glance-simplestreams-sync, normal). Converted the CURRENT-STATE 14/14 line OPERATOR-ATTESTED -> MEASUREMENT-BACKED (C2).storage "mysql" with NO ha_enabled and exposes NO such config option (HA options are only vip + dns-ha-access-record). Vault's HA here is the charm/VIP model, NOT vault-native active/standby -- all 3 units show active: true; the hacluster VIP constrains live traffic to one. This CONFIRMS D-121 (v-a) as-built; vault-native HA (Raft) stays owned by D-068 (already the (v-b) alternative in D-121). No new decision.git revert 7555479 (record-only; no live-cloud change).~/repo-stage: bundle.yaml (staged 213b51ba) and overlays/vr1-dc0-vips.yaml (staged cf42b937) are STALE vs HEAD (bundle 20ca73a6 pre-F-A / vips 3f403408); dc1 rack has NO ~/repo-stage (dc1 HELD/undeployed). Re-stage matters only at the NEXT dc0 deploy (running cloud already converged). Prepared + gated -- rack write not executed unattended.bundle.yaml:23 HA-chain header said "ACTIVE for 12 charms ... 11 carry the dual-VIP pattern (designate ... no HAProxy VIP)". THREE stale claims after BUNDLEFIX-053 + D-020 amendment + R11, all corrected FROM the measured merged dc0 deploy input: (a) 12 -> 13 hacluster subordinates/:ha relations (vault-hacluster added by BUNDLEFIX-053;
provider-bundle-check reports "13 hacluster subordinate(s)").(b) VIP-carriers: ALL 13 carry a VIP -- **12 the full provider+metal-admin+metal-internal triple,
vault a METAL-ONLY pair** (.61, no provider -- D-020 amendment). Measured from `overlays/vr1-dc0-vips.yaml`.(c) The "designate has no HAProxy VIP" note is RETIRED -- designate gained a full triple VIP
(.62) under R11.Also clarified rabbitmq-server is the 14th HA app but native-clustered (no hacluster/VIP), so not in the 13. COMMENT-ONLY; no deploy semantics change. gauntlet + repo-lint re-run green.
bundle.yaml (via BUNDLEFIX-053) carries the HA content of overlays/dc-ha-scaleup.yaml -- num_units:3 + to:[lxd:0,1,2] on the 14 HA apps, cluster_count:3 on the 12 hacluster subs, vault-hacluster declared (line 1036), rabbitmq min-cluster-size:3 (170), and the [vault:ha, vault-hacluster:ha] relation (1058). CORRECTION 2026-08-06: NOT wholly redundant as first stated. A full merge-diff (Item 7) found ONE divergence -- memcached (overlay num_units:3, base 1), which BUNDLEFIX-053 did NOT fold. That is resolved by BUNDLEFIX-055 (Item 7); with it, the overlay is genuinely redundant.juju add-unit, never via this overlay.docs/design-decisions.md), which retains the original 2026-07-27 record below it as history. The overlay was redundant EXCEPT for one field: BUNDLEFIX-053 folded the 14 HA apps + vault-hacluster + rabbitmq + the vault:ha relation (an all-keys no-op there); a full merge-diff (Item 7) later found it ALSO carried memcached num_units:3 which BUNDLEFIX-053 missed (base stayed 1). BUNDLEFIX-055 (Item 7) folds memcached, making the archived overlay fully redundant. The retirement stands; the fold completes it.git mv overlays/dc-ha-scaleup.yaml docs/archive/dc-ha-scaleup-RETIRED-20260806.yaml
vr0-dc0-testcloud.yaml, went to a one-time remove/ dir); docs/archive/ chosen explicitly as the repo's archive location.good.yaml (the base HA chain) -- T33/T34 now use the deterministic mutate() helper instead of sed-on-overlay (a wrong key path KeyErrors loudly; no silent no-op fixture). Each re-pointed FAIL case (run 1) proven to fire against the real checker message (captured standalone before editing). Count 58 -> 57 (T17 dropped). provider-bundle-check 57/0.:503 + the :4563 "overlay encodes v-a" ref, now bundle.yaml/BUNDLEFIX-053); runbook dc-dc-phase4 Step-4 note + Step-12.3(a) gate (the two-phase "base at cluster_count:1, then apply overlay to reach 3" model RETIRED -- base now deploys 3-unit HA directly, so cluster_count:3 is the expected post-Step-4 value); dc-dc-deployment-workflow.md item 22; scripts/provider-bundle-check.py + scripts/cloud-assert.sh comments.render/values/vr1-dc{0,1}-vips.yaml, D-136). Edited the SOURCE and RE-RENDERED (never hand-edited the overlay -- the W-1 trap); overlay diff vs HEAD is exactly the two comment lines; render-drift 4/0. Hand-maintained vr1-dc{0,1}-machines.yaml deploy-command comments edited direct.dc-ha-scaleup mentions are dated historical narrative (2026-07-27 captures, NEW-7 findings) and are retained as history (not present status; GA-R1).~/repo-stage/overlays/vr1-dc0-vips.yaml re-staged in Item 3 is now stale-by-ONE-COMMENT vs the re-render (functionally identical -- no VIP/data change). Not re-staged (a comment does not warrant another gated rack write); it re-syncs + sha-verifies at the next real deploy per D-138. OWED-at-next-deploy, logged.git mv the overlay back to overlays/ (strip the banner); restore the 5 harness cases and the doc/comment blocks (git revert this commit); re-render the vips overlays from reverted values.bundle.yaml (measured 2026-08-06) showed the ONLY divergence was memcached: overlay num_units:3 + to:[lxd:0,1,2] vs base num_units:1 + to:[lxd:0]. BUNDLEFIX-053 folded the HA chain but NOT memcached; the overlay's memcached:3 (operator-directed 2026-07-31) was never folded and never deployed (git: bundle.yaml memcached==1 at ae06c72 and HEAD; F4 capture: live memcached==1).1); and the retirement changelog/commit overstated BUNDLEFIX-053 as folding memcached / the overlay as a full no-op. Both corrected above (Items 5, 6).bundle.yaml (num_units:1->3, to:[lxd:0]->[lxd:0,1,2]) -- completing the fold BUNDLEFIX-053 missed and making the archived overlay genuinely, fully redundant. NO hacluster/VIP (3 independent caches; clients hash across the full server list). The overlay's rationale comment (previously "the only place the exclusion set is written down") is now carried in bundle.yaml.design-decisions.md D-121 "Left single (NOT scaled)" list corrected -- memcached removed from it and recorded as =3.bundle.yaml brings it up at 3; alternatively a gated live juju add-unit memcached -n 2 --to lxd:1,lxd:2. Not done live this turn (hard rule 1; no operator instruction to mutate live).bundle.yaml (754f1d9e) is now genuinely stale -- re-stage + sha-verify (gated) OR the redeploy re-stages. Logged.bundle.yaml memcached back to num_units:1 + to:[lxd:0]; revert the D-121 DOCFIX-212 line.
