D-109 ruling note: the Octavia controller cert gains IPv6 IP SANs
...
Operator ruling (GA-R5), exact utterance: "Yes, add the v6 IP sans."
Recorded as a D-109 RULING NOTE (2026-07-29); OPS under GA-R3 -- a
generator change extending an already-ruled principle to a surface D-109
governs -- so no new D-number and next-free stays 138.
The generator now emits IP.1 = this DC's provider v4 leg and IP.2 = its
provider v6 leg, both derived from the same per-DC overlay under R7's $DC
selector. Verified: dc0 -> 10.12.4.57 + 2602:f3e2:f02:11::57; dc1 ->
10.12.64.57 + 2602:f3e2:f03:11::57; and a v4-only control emits NO v6 SAN,
so the generator stays correct on a tree where the dual-stack ADD has not
landed. Admin and internal legs stay EXCLUDED exactly as before --
DOCFIX-067's design has always been provider-leg-only.
Two repo guards fired and both were right: repo-lint L5 rejected a heading
that LED with the D-number (it reads as a second definition -- the third
time this trap has bitten on this branch), and L10 rejected the change for
touching a design-decisions Status line without CURRENT-STATE in the same
commit.
Observation logged, not acted on: amphorae reach the controller on o-hm0's
charm-generated fc00::/64 ULA, not on any VIP leg, so neither SAN matches
that path. Measured upstream, the controller verifies the amphora by UUID;
the reverse direction was not established from source. Settle by inspection
at the Octavia step rather than assuming.
Gauntlet ALL GREEN (85) on vcloud; repo-lint 0 fail / 611 files.

Octavia: R8a BUILT (record was false), two stale surfaces, R7 generator de-frozen
...
Follows an upstream/vendor research pass answering "can Octavia run full
IPv6" -- yes; nothing inside Octavia requires IPv4. charm-octavia creates
the lb-mgmt subnet with ip_version: 6 and has no IPv4 code path at all; the
health manager is v6-capable both directions; the amphora agent binds '::'
and verifies certs by amphora UUID, not IP; and Nova metadata is not a
dependency (config_drive=True). Surviving v4 pressure is soft or external.
R8a BUILT. phase-05-octavia-verify.sh now compares o-hm0's MTU against
lb-mgmt-net's (resolved BY TAG, never by name), fails in either direction,
and REFUSES when a value cannot be read. This closes the LP#2018998
obligation, live on our exact pin after its 2025-12-31 recurrence.
THE DECISION RECORD HAD CLAIMED THIS SHIPPED. design-decisions.md carried a
present-tense "Delivery: the assertion ships in ..." written on the day of
the ruling, while the file held zero MTU references and its last commit
predated the ruling by a month. Corrected in place. Sharper than the usual
ruled-but-not-built class: the decision doc was the false witness.
TWO OWNED ERRORS:
- I concluded "no octavia harness exists" from a NAME grep. The script's
harness has always been tests/phase-05. Duplicate deleted, R8a cases
folded into the real one.
- My first MTU draft ABORTED the script: a $( ) under set -euo pipefail with
inherit_errexit exits the run rather than reaching the refusal branch. The
pre-existing harness I had just declared nonexistent caught it. Same class
as commit 1's IFS word-splitting trap; both now locked by cases.
Two live surfaces still contradicted R8 -- dc-dc-phase4 and the workflow doc
both called lb-mgmt IPv6 "a real, open risk" and recommended keeping it
v4-only, citing the two refuted bugs. A reader would have re-litigated a
closed ruling in the wrong direction. Both superseded in place.
R7 executed: phase-01 Step 1.0-GEN gains a $DC selector; the baked
/CN=VR0 DC0 CA subjects derive from it, and the VIP gate derives this DC's
provider prefix from the same overlay it read the VIP from -- R7's explicit
"read the MERGED input" caveat. dc1's 10.12.64.57 used to hard-ABORT, so no
dc1 artifact could be produced. Verified both DCs, negative control still
aborts.
Logged not built: the controller cert's CN/DNS SANs still carry dc0.vr0
(outside R7's ruled scope, inert while os-public-hostname is unset), and it
gains no IPv6 IP SAN though the VIP is dual-family -- a gap, not a break,
and adding v6 SANs needs its own ruling.
tests/phase-05 14 cases (was 9); gauntlet ALL GREEN (85) on vcloud;
repo-lint 0 fail / 611 files.

Ruling 3 commit 2: dual-stack ADD -- R2 and R11 are now BUILT, L3-9 resolved
...
Both per-DC VIP overlays re-rendered dual-family: every app carries
prefer-ipv6: true and a six-address vip, and vault .61 + designate .62 are
built. Measured both DCs: 13 clustered VIPs (13 dual-family) + 12 hacluster
principals all carrying a VIP -> PASS. With dc-ha-scaleup stacked: 13
principals, PASS -- R6's ruled ordering (VIPs before the HA overlay) is now
satisfied and executable. Two ruled-but-never-built decisions became
artifacts in one pass.
L3-9 RESOLVED. dc-dc-ipv6-family-matrix.yaml is narrowed to ceph-mon only;
its ten duplicate vip + prefer-ipv6 pairs (every value an unrendered token)
are gone, removed TOGETHER -- removing the vips alone would have recreated
the defect deliberately. Both merge orders now PASS, i.e. order-independent,
which is the actual fix. ceph-mon's ULA-only networks survive because they
exist in no other file. The two Launchpad citations arguing octavia lb-mgmt
IPv6 was an open risk are removed: both were read in full and both failed,
and R8 closed that question on 2026-07-27.
Also corrected at source: CURRENT-STATE described L3-9 as "the dangerous
merge order is the one that PASSES". Measured -- that stopped being true
when invariant 9 shipped on 2026-07-28. The merge semantics it describes
remain accurate; only the green-over-loss conclusion is retired.
Gate repairs the agents caught BEFORE the edit:
- phase-01's deploy guard would have ABORTED THE DEPLOY AGAIN -- its HI regex
(5[0-9]|60) excludes .61/.62, so it would have read 13/11/0 against a
required 11/11/0. Widened, counts moved to 13, verified 13/13/0 -> DEPLOY.
Second near-miss on this one guard across two commits.
- pre-flight-checks CHECK 1 hardcoded if(n!=3) and would have failed all 13.
Now takes a triple OR a sextet and asserts a sextet's last three legs are
really v6. Proven able to fail on both new paths.
Harnesses re-pointed, never deleted. T16/T17 asserted R11's gaps were OPEN;
inverted to the surviving invariant and PAIRED with new T16b/T17b that remove
a VIP and demand the check still fires. T20/T21 had become no-ops that would
have gone GREEN testing nothing -- inverted. A v4-only twin fixture keeps the
pre-dual-stack cases testing their own invariants. The renderer harness now
proves reproduction on both shapes, including new T3b against the live
dual-family overlay.
provider-bundle-check 33/33; render-dc-overlays 18/18; render-baseline 10/10;
preflight 16/16; gauntlet ALL GREEN (85) on vcloud; repo-lint 0 fail / 611.
PREFLIGHT: BOTH STANDING REDS CLEARED, 3 fatal -> 2 fatal. The remaining two
are the deliberately-absent octavia-pki overlay and MAAS unreachable from
vcloud, which R10 measured clears on voffice1.
FLAGGED, not hidden: octavia's dual-family API VIP is an inference from R2
applied evenly, not a quoted ruling. Worth one operator confirmation.

Ruling 3 commit 1: bundle.yaml is VIP-free; dc0's VIPs are now a RENDERED overlay
...
The 11 inline vip: lines are gone from bundle.yaml and live in
overlays/vr1-dc0-vips.yaml, GENERATED by scripts/render-dc-overlays.py from
render/values/vr1-dc0-vips.yaml -- the renderer's first real output.
placement's then-empty options: block was dropped rather than left parsing
as null. Ruling 3's dual-stack ADD is commit 2 and is NOT in here.
PROVEN NEUTRAL by the ruling's own named check: provider-bundle-check on the
pre-extraction bundle and on the merged pair produce line-for-line identical
output, same known designate failure included. A structural diff separately
confirmed only vip moved -- applications 56 -> 56, relations 108 -> 108,
every other key byte-identical.
The 11 inline comments were carried, not dropped: extracted verbatim by
parser rather than retyped, via new optional per-app comment support in the
renderer. An app with no comment emits none, so dc1 still reproduces
byte-for-byte at 1634 bytes. The B1/B5 tokens stay DEFINED in bundle.yaml's
header and the overlay header names that, so the references do not dangle.
The blast-radius repair is the bulk of this, and every item was found BEFORE
the edit by the read-only agent sweep:
- preflight.sh P2 validated the bare base (11 phantom failures post-move) ->
merged input.
- pre-flight-checks.sh CHECK 1 read the base as raw text and would have seen
ZERO VIPs. This is BLOCKER-1, fixed the ruled way and not by bumping the
count. Measured trap: the file sets IFS=$'\n\t', so a space-joined string
reached grep as ONE filename, grep exited 2, pipefail propagated and the
gate died silently mid-check. Fixed with a bash array.
- phase-01's RUN block gates juju deploy on 11/11/0 and would have read
0/0/0 and ABORTED THE DEPLOY. Both guards now span base + overlay, and a
second latent bug was fixed in the same edit: grep -c over two files prints
one count PER FILE, so the bare $( ) captured a two-line string and every
numeric test would have failed anyway. Now awk-summed; verified 11/11/0.
- phase-01's Octavia SAN derivation raised KeyError, swallowed by || true
into an empty VIP. Now reads the overlay, deriving 10.12.4.57.
- phase-00 teardown, dc-dc-phase4's "NO VIP edits" guidance, appendix-A L3,
and render-baseline's now-unverifiable bundle hash all repaired.
Harness 30 -> 31. The fixture base is now bundle + dc0 overlay, since that
pair is the deploy input; T16 renamed to match. NEW T31 asserts the bare base
fails for every clustered principal, so "deployed without its overlay" is a
tested state rather than an assumption.
Gauntlet ALL GREEN (85) on vcloud; repo-lint 0 fail / 610 files scanned.
Still red and expected: CHECK 1 at OK=11 want 13, and designate -- R11's
.61/.62 remain ruled-but-not-built, which is commit 2's job.

DOCFIX-169: fix stale bundle.yaml expectations in phase-01-bundle-deploy.md
...
DOCFIX-167 (Designate + D-108 DR mechanism reactivation) edited the same
shared bundle.yaml this existing, live-cloud-relevant VR0 runbook deploys,
but didn't update this runbook's own documented expectations. Found during
a full-project sweep: "expected plan: 50 apps, 97 relations" was stale
(real count 56/108); "NO designate (D-019)" GATE text was flatly wrong.
Fixed both live-gate references; left the historical 2026-06-03 as-built
record unchanged (append-only audit trail). Flagged, rather than decided,
a real architectural tension: this bundle now serves both a plain VR0
redeploy and DC1's buildout, so any future phase-01 run gets the new
charms regardless of intent.

DOCFIX-139..141: repo-rename sweep (ipv4->dc-dc) + repo-lint L9 self-reference guard
...
New repo openstack-caracal-dc-dc still had stale operational references to the
source repo it was seeded from (openstack-caracal-ipv4), plus, after the
mechanical fix, hardcoded references to its own new name -- both break on any
future fork/rename. Fixes:
- DOCFIX-139/140: repaired 8 stale clone-path/URL references across the skill
and 4 runbook RUN blocks; fixed a repo_lint.py Windows path-separator bug
that silently turned a documented WARN into a FAIL (rel comparison used
str() instead of as_posix()).
- DOCFIX-141: new repo-lint check L9 fails any script/RUN-block/skill file
that hardcodes the current repo's own directory name. Narrowed the
.claude exclusion in repo_lint.py to .claude/worktrees/ only (it was
blanket-hiding checked-in .claude/skills and .claude/hooks from all
lint checks). Established a $REPO session-variable convention
(runbooks/README.md Conventions) and converted the 8 hardcoded paths to
require it explicitly, fail loud if unset.
repo-lint: 0 fail / 1 documented legacy WARN. tests/repo-lint harness 34/34.
Full details + per-item revert instructions in the two changelogs.
