GetTraceEventsAsync widens its channel filter to ScriptTrace ∪ ApiOutbound ∪
DbOutbound ∪ Notification ∪ (ApiInbound & InboundRequest) (plan D6); SecuredWrite,
Cluster and InboundAuthFailure rows in the same tree stay excluded. The site
SqliteAuditWriter.ReadByExecutionIdsAsync already had no channel predicate — pinned
by a test. Interface doc updated to match.

Flow Debugger (design 2026-09-05 §7.1): IAuditLogRepository.GetTraceEventsAsync walks any
entry id to its root and down the Edges/Chain CTE exactly as GetExecutionTreeAsync, then
returns the chain's ScriptTrace rows plus the ApiInbound.InboundRequest row via the canonical
row mapper, ordered (OccurredAtUtc, EventId). Test doubles implement the new member with a
NotSupported stub.

P5-3: add IX_Notifications_Created_NotificationId (CreatedAt DESC,
NotificationId DESC) — the Central UI Notification Outbox list page sorts on
exactly that pair, but no existing index leads unconditionally on CreatedAt,
so an unfiltered/lightly filtered page fell back to a full clustered-index
scan + sort on every COUNT + page request. Mirrors the Medium wave's
IX_SiteCalls_Created_TrackedOperationId migration + SQL twin pattern
faithfully, including the handwritten docs/plans/sql script.
P5-4: operator Retry/Discard was read-check-write keyed on NotificationId
only — a detached PipeTo task interleaving with the dispatcher's own write
(or a second concurrent operator action) could land between the read and
the write and get silently clobbered by the unconditional UpdateAsync,
stamping a Delivered row Discarded with stale fields. Adds
INotificationOutboxRepository.TryUpdateFromParkedAsync, a single-statement
compare-and-swap (WHERE Status == Parked) mirroring
SecuredWriteRepository.TryMarkApprovedAsync's CAS shape. NotificationOutboxActor's
RetryAsync/DiscardAsync now use the CAS write and, on a lost race, re-read
to report "notification already progressed to <Status>" instead of silently
overwriting whatever is there now.
Proof of failure: reverting only the actor's CAS usage while keeping the
repository addition reproduces the silent-overwrite bug — 7 tests fail,
including two new deterministic (non-sleep) race-proof tests that mock the
exact GetByIdAsync -> lost-CAS -> re-read sequence the finding describes.
P5-3 is perf-only; verified via migration/SQL-twin parity instead (no
runtime proof-of-failure is meaningful for an index).
Reject read the row as Pending, then landed a blind full-row UpdateAsync. A
concurrent approve could win its own Pending->Approved CAS in that gap and enter
the multi-second WriteTagAsync relay; the reject's update then stamped
Status/ExecutedAtUtc/ExecutionError to Rejected mid-relay, so the two-person-control
record said Rejected for a write that physically executed at the plant. Works
cross-node (both centrals share one MS SQL).
- ISecuredWriteRepository/SecuredWriteRepository: new TryMarkRejectedAsync,
mirroring TryMarkApprovedAsync exactly (conditional UPDATE ... WHERE
Status='Pending', writes only the columns the reject transition owns). No schema
change, no migration, no rowversion column.
- HandleRejectSecuredWrite: uses the CAS; on loss re-reads the row and returns the
status that actually won (same UX shape as approve's lost-race error), and emits
the SecuredWriteReject audit row ONLY on a won CAS.
- Audited the other lifecycle writes: approve/reject/expiry (inline + the
opportunistic list sweep) now ALL transition only out of Pending, so winning the
approve CAS gives that leg exclusive ownership of the row and its post-relay
Executed/Failed update stays safe as an unconditional write. Documented in place.
- Tests: repository-level approve-vs-reject races in both orders (exactly one wins,
loser false, row reflects the winner only) plus reject-vs-expiry; handler-level
lost-race reject (conflict error, no write, no audit row) and approve on an
already-rejected row (no CAS, no relay, no audit).
maxParallelThreads was unset everywhere and only 3 of ~20 test projects carried
an xunit.runner.json at all, so xunit ran Environment.ProcessorCount collections
at once (14 on the dev box) in every suite. That is the general load multiplier
behind the row-82/91/95 flake family.
Policy: per-suite caps, NOT a global one. Pure unit suites stay uncapped for
speed; a suite gets a config only when a test CLASS costs a real external or
OS-level resource, so ProcessorCount of them at once is a resource question
rather than a CPU question. Four suites qualify, all capped at
maxParallelThreads: 4.
- ConfigurationDatabase.Tests, AuditLog.Tests, SiteCallAudit.Tests — verified as
the three that actually take MsSqlMigrationFixture (the latter two by project
reference). Every MSSQL-backed test class means a CREATE DATABASE plus the
~100-migration chain against the one shared dev SQL Server. 4 is chosen to
MATCH the default slot count of row 82's cross-process sp_getapplock migrate
semaphore, so the in-process and cross-process limits agree rather than
fighting.
- Host.Tests — classes boot real ASP.NET Core hosts and real ActorSystems;
Akka.Remote binds real sockets, Kestrel binds real ports, gRPC dials them.
Threads are capped, collections are NOT serialized. IntegrationTests
(parallelizeAssembly/parallelizeTestCollections false) and
CentralUI.PlaywrightTests (maxParallelThreads 1) already carry stricter
pre-existing settings and are left alone — the Playwright suite drives a browser
against a live rig, where shared UI state, not CPU, is the constraint.
Each capped csproj gains
<Content Include="xunit.runner.json" CopyToOutputDirectory="PreserveNewest" />;
the SDK does not copy it automatically and without it the file is silently
ignored. Verified by moving the copied file out of bin/ to take an uncapped
baseline: ConfigurationDatabase.Tests ran at 216 % CPU uncapped vs 145 % capped,
so the cap demonstrably takes effect.
Cost is close to nil — these suites are latency-bound on an external resource,
not CPU-bound (14-25 % utilisation for the two slowest). Standalone, uncapped ->
capped: AuditLog 383 tests 1m52s -> 1m51s; Host 520 tests 4m05s -> 4m08s;
ConfigurationDatabase 396 tests 10s -> 12s; SiteCallAudit 66 tests 8s -> 8s. All
green.
docs/test_infra/test_infra.md gains a Test Parallelism Policy section: the two
axes (in-process collection threads = this cap; cross-process solution-level
dotnet test = unbounded in general, bounded on the DB-migration path by the
sp_getapplock semaphore), the per-suite table with reasons, the rules (cap
threads rather than serialize; a cap is not a substitute for test isolation; the
Content copy is required), and the default for new projects (no config until the
project acquires a per-class external resource). test_infra_db.md cross-links it
from the semaphore bullet.
Deferred-work register rows 37, 86, 87, 88 — the structural duplication and the
three behavioral divergences it had accumulated, fixed together.
Row 37 (structural). `IDeploymentManagerRepository.QueryDeploymentSummariesAsync`
is DELETED. It and `QueryDeploymentListPageAsync` were two paged reads of the same
insert-only table with different contracts — raw offset vs page number, no total vs
total, no instance join vs joined, instance-id-list scoping vs site-id scoping. The
CLI/HTTP `QueryDeployments` handler now goes through `QueryDeploymentListPageAsync`
with a `DeploymentListFilter`, exactly like the Central UI page. The
`DeploymentRecordSummary` projection went with it (`DeploymentListRow` is the single
row shape); its `MaxPageSize` const moved to `DeploymentListPage`, which also gains
`DefaultPageSize`.
Row 86 (Medium, authorization — the headline). `SiteScopeService.ResolveAsync` was
claims-only, so an Administrator carrying `SiteId` claims saw the whole fleet through
the CLI (`ManagementActor.EnforceSiteScope` has always exempted Administrator) and
only their granted sites on the Deployments page. One user, one dataset, two answers.
Administrator = system-wide is the intended semantic on both sides; the UI was the
defect. The role claim is read explicitly with an OrdinalIgnoreCase comparison rather
than via `IsInRole`, which compares claim VALUES ordinally and only resolves when the
identity carries the matching roleType — the two sides must not disagree on a
differently-cased role name. An Administrator's site claims are not collected at all,
so the invariant "system-wide => empty permitted-id set" holds for every caller.
Designer is NOT exempt: the class doc claimed "any Admin/Design user" is system-wide,
which was true of neither side, so the doc was corrected rather than the bypass
widened.
Row 87 (Low). The scoped branch used to resolve the site grant into an instance-id
list by loading EVERY instance in the system, non-transactionally, on every scoped
query; the grant now rides as `SiteIdScope` and is resolved by the query's own join.
An unparseable permitted-site id is DROPPED, never ignored — dropping can only narrow
a grant, discarding it would widen it to fleet-wide. And `PageSize <= 0` no longer
means UNLIMITED down at the repository (`--page-size 0` materialized the whole
retention window): it means "unspecified" and takes the CLI's own default of 50,
capped at 1000. Bounding without telling would be silent truncation, so the handler
now returns a `DeploymentQueryResult` envelope carrying `totalCount` plus the page
coordinates actually applied — with a CLI table projection (mirroring row 57's
`AuditConfigTableProjection`) that unwraps it and appends a "showing N of M" note.
Row 88 (Low, UX). An unrecognised `--status` fell back to "no filter", so a typo like
`--status Sucess` returned every status — a complete-looking answer to a question the
caller never asked. It is now a `ManagementError` naming the valid values. Parsing
stays case-insensitive; a numeric string is rejected too, since `Enum.TryParse`
accepts "7" and yields an undefined value (guarded with `Enum.IsDefined`). Loud
failure over silent full results, per row 46.
Tests: 7 new `SiteScopeServiceTests` pinning Administrator = system-wide (verified
failing 6/7 against the pre-fix service, the Designer pin passing both ways); the
ManagementActor deployment suite migrated onto the consolidated query with new pins
for the status error, case-insensitive parse, numeric rejection, page-size default/
cap/floor, empty-scope-on-garbage-grant, and "reads no instances at all"; a repository
test for site-scope+status composing over a bounded page; and 6 CLI tests for the new
table projection.
AuditLog.Tests flaked under parallel full-solution runs. Three distinct
mechanisms, all load-sensitive and all green in isolation.
1. MsSqlMigrationFixture create+migrate saturation (the register's headline).
Database NAMING was already isolated (a guid per fixture), but nothing
bounded how many fixtures ran CREATE DATABASE + the ~100-migration chain at
once. xunit parallelises processor-count collections PER PROCESS, and a
solution-level `dotnet test` starts several MSSQL-backed processes together,
so the dev container saw dozens of simultaneous fresh-database migrations.
That is resource saturation, not object-level locking, and it pushed
individual DDL statements past EF's default 30s command timeout — every
failure had the identical fingerprint the register recorded:
MsSqlMigrationFixture..ctor -> Migrator.MigrateAsync -> SqlException
"Execution Timeout Expired" (error 258), which xunit surfaces as
"Class fixture type ... threw in its constructor" against every test in the
class.
Fix: a machine-wide counting semaphore over the create+migrate window, built
from sp_getapplock on master (ScadaBridgeTestMigrate/0..N-1, default 4 slots,
SCADABRIDGE_MSSQL_TEST_MIGRATE_SLOTS to override). An xunit collection cannot
do this — the contention is cross-PROCESS, so the arbiter has to live on the
shared server. The gate connection is unpooled (a pooled connection defers the
implicit release of a session-scoped app lock until reuse) and releases
explicitly; a crashed process drops its connection and SQL releases the lock,
so the gate cannot wedge the suite, and a deadline miss proceeds ungated
rather than failing. Migration commands also get a 300s timeout and
CREATE/DROP DATABASE 120s: under a bounded queue the server is busy but
progressing, so waiting is the correct response. Plus a once-per-process
best-effort sweep of ScadaBridgeAuditMigTest_* databases older than 2h so a
killed run does not leave strays, and the connectivity probe now retries
(3 attempts) — a busy server misread as an absent one would silently turn
every MSSQL test into a Skip, which reads green and is worse than a red.
2. PartitionPurgeTests leaked AuditLogPurgeActors. Each ticks every 100ms and
switches out the Jan-2026 partition; they were only stopped implicitly by
TestKit Dispose -> Shutdown, which is timeout-bounded and does not fail when
it expires. Under load a previous test's actor was still ticking against the
shared per-class fixture DB, so PerChannelOverride_... found its seeded
Jan-15-2026 row already gone (Expected: 1, Actual: 0).
3. NotifyDispatcherAuditTrailTests leaked NotificationOutboxActors, same shape.
The dispatcher claims EVERY due row, not just the test's siteId, so a leaked
actor delivered the next test's notification through its own exhausted
QueuedOutcomeAdapter — a transient outcome, leaving the row in Retrying
(Expected: Delivered, Actual: Retrying) and audit counts short.
Both fixed by stopping the actor inside the test that created it
(Watch/Stop/ExpectTerminated), removing the dependency on shutdown timing.
Evidence. Reproducer: 10 concurrent ConfigurationDatabase.Tests processes
against the one dev SQL Server — before, 10/10 processes failed (17-77 failures
each, 100% the ctor->MigrateAsync timeout); after, 3 consecutive runs 10/10
green, 395/395 each. Realistic shape (3x AuditLog.Tests + 1x
ConfigurationDatabase.Tests concurrent): first post-fix run still showed the
NotifyDispatcher leak, then 3 consecutive clean runs. Standalone: AuditLog.Tests
383/383, ConfigurationDatabase.Tests 395/395 (12s, unchanged from baseline),
SiteCallAudit.Tests 66/66. No orphan databases or stuck app locks left behind.
docs/test_infra/test_infra_db.md documents the ephemeral per-test-class
databases, the throttle and its env override, the timeouts, and the stray sweep.
Row 65 — trigger FIRED, fixed. BundleUnlockAttempt rows were pruned only by
nodes actively serving unlocks, so a cluster that stopped importing entirely
left its last rows in place forever. The row's own trigger was "Transport gains
a central scheduler a prune tick could ride" — it has one now:
BundleSessionEvictionService, the central-only 1-minute session sweep added by
the transport-session fixes. It now also ticks the new
IBundleUnlockAttemptWindow.PruneAsync. Both drivers share the ONE 15-minute CAS
cadence claim, so ticking on a 1-minute sweep costs at most one bounded DELETE
per quarter hour and the two can never prune concurrently. PruneAsync is
contractually non-throwing (unlike TryRegisterAttemptAsync, which throws and
lets the limiter own the fail-open decision) — a background sweep has no caller
to report to and must survive a database blip. Both Transport docs updated;
three tests in FleetWideUnlockThrottleTests, incl. the retention sweep running
with no unlock traffic anywhere in the test, which is the whole point.
Row 58 — closed with a pin, and the OLD pin was found blind. The existing
Deployments_Dispose_UnsubscribesFromNotifier is behavioural: it is satisfied by
the _disposed guard alone, so deleting the `-=` from Dispose leaves it green
while the singleton notifier keeps a delegate pinning the circuit-scoped
component. Verified by mutation — with the `-=` removed the old test still
passed and only the two new pins failed. Added:
* a structural retention pin asserting the notifier's invocation list actually
shrinks to 0 on Dispose;
* a source scan pinning the row's stated TRIGGER ("a second page subscribes,
or any subscriber lands without a matching Dispose unsubscribe") — every
CentralUI file that subscribes must also unsubscribe and be IDisposable,
with a non-empty guard so the scan cannot pass vacuously.
Row 60 — closed with a pin, and the register's premise corrected.
GlobalArtifactSnapshot does NOT hold EF-materialised entities: it is projected
into pure Commons DTOs before the fan-out. The EF state that genuinely crosses
into the parallel send is the tracked Site entities the lambda closes over, and
that is safe only while lazy loading is off. Pinned in ConfigurationDatabase
.Tests two ways — no proxies extension on the built DbContextOptions, and no
EntityFrameworkCore.Proxies package reference anywhere in the repo (the
structurally stronger half: UseLazyLoadingProxies() is not a compilable call
without it). The real invariant is now spelled out at the fan-out itself.
Row 59 — no product change; added the missing tripwire remark stating the
constraint the safety argument rests on (serial by design, one scoped DbContext,
do not Task.WhenAll; if it gets slow the fix is a scope PER SITE, not a shared
scope under fan-out). Line numbers in the register have drifted to :528-545.
Rows 36, 37, 64: verification only, no change — see the sweep report.
The per-IP unlock throttle's counters were a process-local ConcurrentDictionary
on each central node, so the effective fleet cap was N x
MaxUnlockAttemptsPerIpPerHour per client (failing over to the other node handed
the client a fresh budget) and a node restart cleared the window outright.
The window now lives in the central MS SQL BundleUnlockAttempt table — the HA
store both central nodes already share, so no new infrastructure, no new port,
no consensus protocol:
- Commons: BundleUnlockAttempt entity + IBundleUnlockAttemptRepository.
- ConfigurationDatabase: entity config (one index,
IX_BundleUnlockAttempt_Client_Attempted, serving both the windowed count and
the prune), repository (AsNoTracking count, ExecuteDeleteAsync prune),
DbSet, DI registration, migration AddBundleUnlockAttemptTable + the
hand-written idempotent production script under docs/plans/sql/.
- Transport: IBundleUnlockAttemptWindow seam + SqlBundleUnlockAttemptWindow
(singleton; resolves the scoped repository from its own scope per call, like
the central purge singletons). BundleUnlockRateLimiter keeps the policy and
gains TryRegisterAttemptAsync; BundleImporter.LoadAsync calls it.
Behaviour preserved from row 44: locked bundles spend no hourly budget (the
lockout check still runs first), throttle denials burn no per-bundle strike and
are NOT recorded so they cannot roll the window forward, unattributable clients
share the stricter <unattributed> bucket, and the budget counts attempts rather
than failures. Config keys and their semantics are unchanged, so the rig's 500
override stays valid.
Three deliberate trades, documented in both Transport docs:
- FAILS OPEN. A store error logs a Warning naming the client and cap, and
permits the attempt. This is a best-effort rate cap over an already
authenticated, Administrator-gated surface — the availability of legitimate
imports outranks the cap, and a DB blip must not make the import wizard
unusable. Falling back to the process-local window was considered and
rejected: it would still block a legitimate operator's 11th import.
- Approximate. Count-then-insert is not atomic across nodes, so simultaneous
attempts can overshoot by the number in flight — bounded, self-correcting
within the window, and not worth provider-specific raw SQL.
- Pruned opportunistically on the unlock path (CAS-claimed at most every 15
min per process, bounded to 1000 rows, retaining 2x the window, best-effort
try/catch) rather than by a new background service — Transport owns no
central scheduler. Same shape as DeploymentService's terminal-record sweep.
Tests: Transport.IntegrationTests 116 passed (+10 — two limiter instances over
one store enforcing a single combined window, restart durability, denials
burning no budget, sliding release, bucket isolation, store-failure fail-open,
caller-cancellation not swallowed, no-shared-window fallback, prune and its
negative control); ConfigurationDatabase 395 passed (+5).
The Deployment Status page client-materialized the whole deployment list. It read
EVERY DeploymentRecord — an insert-only table, one row per deploy attempt for the
retention window — plus EVERY Instance, then site-scoped, sorted, counted the four
status tiles and sliced a 25-row page in the Blazor circuit's memory. That ran on
first render AND on every IDeploymentStatusNotifier push, so the cost scaled with
the age of the system rather than the size of the page.
All four jobs move into SQL:
- `IDeploymentManagerRepository.QueryDeploymentListPageAsync(filter, page, size)`
returns one page of `DeploymentListRow` — DeploymentRecord INNER JOINed to
Instance, so the instance display name and site travel with the rows that need
them — plus the total count of the filtered set. The join is exact: the FK is
Restrict and DeleteInstanceAsync removes the records first, so no orphan exists.
- `GetDeploymentStatusCountsAsync(filter)` returns the tile counts from ONE grouped
aggregation, deliberately ignoring the filter's Status: the tiles are the status
BREAKDOWN of the filtered set, so honouring it would zero three of four tiles the
moment an operator clicked one.
- Site scoping runs in the query as `SiteIdScope` resolved through the record's
instance (DeploymentRecord has no SiteId of its own). An EMPTY grant stays a real
filter matching nothing, never "unconstrained".
- The now-callerless whole-table `GetAllDeploymentRecordsAsync` is deleted.
OFFSET paging, not the Audit Log's keyset cursor, and deliberately so: this page's
pager is numbered and jump-to-any-page, so it needs a page count, which only a total
can give it — a keyset cursor can express neither, and the total is required for the
tiles regardless. The deep-offset cost that pushes high-volume tables to keyset is
bounded here by the terminal-record retention purge, unlike the 365-day AuditLog.
This mirrors the Notification Outbox, offset-paged for the same reason. Ordering is
DeployedAt DESC, Id DESC — the Id tie-break is load-bearing, because DeployedAt ties
on rapid redeploys and an unstable sort key makes offset paging repeat or drop rows.
UI: the four status tiles become the status filter (click to apply, click again to
clear, aria-pressed, phrasing-only content so a <button> stays valid), plus a
free-text search matched DB-side against instance name, deployment id, revision hash
and initiating user. Search is TRAILING-edge debounced at 500ms — the same Timer +
lock + _disposed idiom as the existing leading-edge push coalescer, minus the leading
edge, because a search box must not query on the first keystroke. A filter change
resets to page 1; a page past the end falls back to the last real page. Bootstrap
only, existing PagerWindow pager retained.
The WP2.4 push coalescing is unchanged and still earns its keep: server paging shrank
what a reload costs, not how many arrive — it now bounds database round-trips rather
than table scans.
Tests: 19 new SQLite repository tests (paging slice + total, tie-break stability
across pages, page/size clamping, past-the-end, the joined projection, every filter
dimension incl. the empty-scope security case, and the grouped counts' status-blind
contract); 15 new bUnit page tests (page-1 request, server total drives the pager,
Next re-queries, tiles show server counts not page counts, tile filter + toggle,
system-wide vs site-scoped scope push, debounce collapses a keystroke burst to one
query, clear-filters, dispose with an armed timer). The two existing Deployments
suites re-point their reload assertions at the new query.
Doc: Component-CentralUI.md Deployment section — the "no server-side paging" known
residual is replaced by the shipped design.
Six adversarial-review findings, each verified against the code first.
F1 (HIGH) CLI HttpClient capped every call at min(30s, caller timeout),
silently truncating deploy site's 5-minute BulkDeployTimeout and the
5-minute bundle export/preview/import calls — which printed a fake
"504 Request timed out" while the server kept working. HttpClient.Timeout
is now Timeout.InfiniteTimeSpan (the per-call CTS is the single overall
deadline, connect included) with the connect phase bounded separately on
SocketsHttpHandler.ConnectTimeout. The env override is renamed to
SCADABRIDGE_HTTP_CONNECT_TIMEOUT_SECONDS to match its new meaning.
F2 (HIGH) StaleInstanceProbe's process-static memo served stale hashes
because nothing bumped the watermark on three paths:
(a) BundleImporter commits through the raw DbContext, so no import ever
moved the watermark — a second import overwriting the same template
could be OMITTED from ImportResult.StaleInstanceIds. It now bumps
once per apply ATTEMPT: after the commit, and after the rollback too
(the probe runs pre-commit, so a rolled-back attempt leaves memos for
state that never landed; bumping on both paths is the simplest
correct shape, versus threading transaction awareness through a
process-static cache).
(b) CollectWatermarkBumps' default: arm silently no-op'd, contradicting
its own doc. It now sets unattributed=true — an over-broad bump costs
extra work, a missed one produces stale work.
(c) DataConnection edits route through SiteRepository.SaveChangesAsync,
which had no watermark at all, yet Protocol/Primary+Backup config/
FailoverRetryCount are revision-hash inputs. It now bumps (BumpAll —
a connection has no owning template) after a commit that touched one.
F3 (MED) CLI TemplateTableProjection read child ARRAYS, but ListTemplates
now returns database-projected TemplateSummary rows, so template list
printed all zeros. It now prefers the *Count scalars and falls back to
array length (template get still returns full entities). --detail help
text and README corrected: a listing cannot yield definitions, so --detail
renders the raw summary payload and template get --id is the full dump.
F4 (MED) DeploySiteAsync staged every PendingDeployment in phase 1 against
a 5-min TTL while phase 2 reached them one batch at a time, so tail
instances' fetch tokens could expire before their command was sent.
Staging moved into phase 2, immediately before each send; prepare keeps
its flatten/validate/record work. The staging write is the phase's only
repository touch and is serialised behind a 1-permit semaphore, so the
non-thread-safe DbContext constraint holds and the sends stay concurrent.
F5 (MED, latent) DeploySiteAsync leaked every held operation lock if
cancelled — a wedged per-instance semaphore is permanent for the process.
Phase 2 no longer throws (cancellation is recorded as a per-instance
outcome so phase 3 still runs), and an escape from phase 1 or 3 now
unwinds every unfinalised entry: Failed status + lock release.
F6 (LOW) ScriptCompileVerdictCache's promotion wrote hot directly,
bypassing SegmentCapacity (true ceiling 3x against a documented 2x).
Promotion now goes through Store, keeping generational semantics; _hot
and _cold are volatile.
Tests: CLI 396, DeploymentManager 133, ManagementService 494,
TemplateEngine 478, ScriptAnalysis 60, Transport 157, Transport
integration 106, ConfigurationDatabase 366 — all green, 0 build warnings.
The F2/F4/F5 regression tests were each confirmed to FAIL with their fix
reverted.
Six adversarial-review findings in the central SQL/ingest layer.
F1 (AuditLogRepository.InsertChunkAsync) — the set-based ingest declared each
string parameter at its COLUMN width (Actor/Target 256, Action 64, Outcome 16,
Category 32, SourceNode 64), so SqlClient truncated an over-long value at bind
time and committed the mutilated row — silent, in an append-only store, with no
PayloadTruncated flag — while the per-row and reconciliation paths sent the same
value in full and let the server reject it with 2628. Bind at the value's own
length instead; explicit SqlDbType is kept (it fixes the VALUES constructor's
derived column types and datetime2 precision). Design: reject everywhere,
truncate nowhere — matching today's per-row behaviour.
F2 (SiteCallAuditRepository.UpsertAsync) — the single-statement upsert ran the
monotonic UPDATE first and INSERTed only if nothing matched. Two writers racing
the first packet of one TrackedOperationId (the cached dual-write and the
reconciliation pull carry DIFFERENT lifecycle states) both matched nothing, and
the loser then skipped its INSERT or swallowed a 2627 — dropping its
Status/RetryCount/HttpStatus/TerminalAtUtc. Legs swapped to
`IF NOT EXISTS … INSERT; UPDATE <monotonic>` — still one round trip, and the
loser's UPDATE now lands on the winner's row. The duplicate-key catch re-runs
the monotonic UPDATE for the same reason. Moved to raw SQL with explicitly-typed
parameters so the intricate rank predicate exists in exactly one place (an
untyped DateTime would bind as `datetime` and round the freshness tiebreaker).
F3 (docs/plans/sql/*.sql) — filtered-index DDL failed with error 1934 under the
documented `docker exec … sqlcmd` path, which defaults QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF;
once IX_Notifications_Delivered exists, QI-OFF DML on Notifications fails too.
All four scripts now open with `SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON; SET ANSI_NULLS ON; GO`
(own batch, so it is in force when the next batch parses), and the migration
convention in Component-ConfigurationDatabase.md documents `sqlcmd -I`. Verified
live: the pre-fix script fails 1934 without -I, the fixed one applies.
F4 (SiteCallAuditActor) — the off-mailbox reconciliation/purge passes reuse the
injected repository, so tests drove one DbContext from the pass and a mailbox
handler concurrently. Serialized at the CALL via a private SerializedRepository
wrapper applied only by the test constructors, rather than running the pass
on-mailbox: production keeps its PipeTo shape untouched, and the existing
"a blocked drain does not stall ingest/query/KPI" regression tests stay
meaningful (they would have been invalidated by suspending the mailbox).
F5 (AuditLogIngestActor) — when the batch failed because the 20 s IngestBudget
expired, the per-row fallback reused the same expired token: N instant failures,
N counter bumps, zero accepted. The fallback now gets a fresh 5 s budget (inside
the 30 s outer Ask), and a blown budget bumps the failure counter ONCE for the
batch instead of once per row.
F6 (NotificationOutboxRepository.UpdateAsync) — ExecuteUpdate's row count was
discarded, so an operator Retry/Discard of a notification the retention purge had
already deleted reported success (the pre-ExecuteUpdate code threw
DbUpdateConcurrencyException). UpdateAsync now returns whether a row matched; the
operator one-shots answer "notification not found" and emit no audit row for the
action that did not happen, while the dispatcher logs a warning (its delivery
already happened; nothing to retry). GetByIdAsync switched to AsNoTracking since
the write is out-of-band.
Tests: 5 new SQL-backed regressions (over-long Target rejected on both paths +
boundary round-trip; concurrent first-write and already-created-by-another-writer
upserts; vanished-row UpdateAsync), a token-identity pin on the ingest fallback,
a repository-concurrency detector for the SiteCallAudit passes, and vanished-row
operator-path tests. The F1/F2/F4 regressions were each confirmed failing against
the pre-fix code. Suites: ConfigurationDatabase 369, AuditLog 378, SiteCallAudit
66, NotificationOutbox 152 — all green, solution builds with 0 warnings.
The NuGetAuditSuppress in Directory.Packages.props was masking a LIVE high-severity
vulnerability, not documenting an accepted one. Only the Host project resolved a
patched SQLitePCLRaw.lib.e_sqlite3 2.1.12 (transitively, via ZB.MOM.WW.Auth.ApiKeys).
Every other SQLite consumer - AuditLog, SiteRuntime, StoreAndForward, SiteEventLogging
and 11 test projects - still resolved the vulnerable 2.1.11.
The suppression's rationale was factually wrong: it claimed 'the only patched native
lib is the SQLitePCLRaw 3.x line'. 2.1.12 patches this advisory within the 2.1.x line,
so the feared risky force-override of the whole family to 3.x is unnecessary.
Fix: explicit PackageReference to the patched 2.1.12 in each SQLite-consuming project,
plus the central PackageVersion row. Suppression removed, so the advisory is audited
again rather than silenced.
Rejected alternative: CentralPackageTransitivePinningEnabled. It clears the advisory in
one line but makes every central version a ceiling for transitive resolution, demanding
bumps to Google.Protobuf, Grpc.Net.Client, Microsoft.Data.SqlClient and Newtonsoft.Json.
That is a gRPC/data-access change to a production SCADA platform and deserves its own
reviewed commit.
Verified: forced full-solution restore reports no NU1903 (only the pre-existing,
unrelated AngleSharp NU1902 in CentralUI.Tests); all four previously-vulnerable src
projects now resolve 2.1.12; 55 projects build 0 warnings / 0 errors; 1108 tests pass
across the SQLite layer (AuditLog 354, ConfigurationDatabase 357, Security 181,
StoreAndForward 152, SiteEventLogging 64).
Add FoldHourlyRollupsAsync (in-memory grouped, per-metric gauge-last/rate-sum,
idempotent upsert on the series+hour key with null-ScopeKey equality, exclusive
upper hour bound so the in-progress hour is never folded), GetHourlySeriesAsync
(same KpiSeriesPoint contract as GetRawSeriesAsync), and PurgeRollupsOlderThanAsync
(one-hour-sliced batched DELETE mirroring PurgeOlderThanAsync). Adds 7 repo tests.

Installs SqlServerRetryingExecutionStrategy (5 retries, 30s cap) so transient SQL
faults retry transparently on every read-side path. Manual transactions aren't
auto-retried, so AuditLogIngestActor's idempotent dual-write is wrapped in an
explicit CreateExecutionStrategy().ExecuteAsync to become retriable. Verified
empirically that existing manual transactions (BundleImporter) are unaffected —
EF skips the strategy while a transaction is already active.
Within an equal NON-terminal rank the newest UpdatedAtUtc wins, unfreezing the
Attempted-phase RetryCount/LastError/HttpStatus. Terminal ranks (>=3) are
excluded from the tiebreaker so terminal immutability is preserved (Delivered
never overwrites Parked); equal stamps stay idempotent, lower rank stays a no-op.
Notify-and-fetch follow-ups:
- PendingDeploymentPurgeActor: a central cluster singleton (not
readiness-gated, best-effort) that sweeps expired PendingDeployment
staging rows on CommunicationOptions.PendingDeploymentPurgeInterval
(default 1h). Modeled on the kpi-history-recorder pattern: self-scheduling
timer, per-tick DI scope -> IDeploymentManagerRepository, continue-on-error.
Wired in AkkaHostedService.RegisterCentralActors (manager + proxy + drain);
resolves the deferred TODO in DeploymentService. Correctness never depends
on it (supersession bounds rows to <=1/instance; the fetch endpoint enforces
the TTL), so it is deliberately absent from RequiredSingletonsHealthCheck.
- SQL Server integration test for StagePendingIfAbsentAsync re-staging an
instance's OWN DeploymentId over an expired row against the real UNIQUE
index on DeploymentId — confirms EF orders DELETE before INSERT in one
SaveChanges (SQLite's constraint timing differs from SQL Server's). Plus
a same-instance supersession variant on real SQL Server.
Tests: 2 TestKit actor tests + 2 SQL Server integration tests (both ran
green against the infra MSSQL container); 235 Communication + 15
PendingDeployment tests pass; Host builds 0 warnings.
Remediation from the full per-module code review at 4307c381 (findings recorded
separately in code-reviews/).
Highs fixed:
- DeploymentManager-025/SiteRuntime-031: stop broadcasting notification lists + SMTP
configs (incl. credentials) to sites; site purges already-persisted rows on apply
(enforces the central-only delivery design; clears plaintext SMTP creds at rest).
- DataConnectionLayer-023: guard the native-alarm subscribe path against the
mid-flight-unsubscribe adapter-feed leak (mirrors the DCL-021 tag-path fix).
- SiteEventLogging-024: normalize From/To query bounds to UTC (the -016 fix the
audit trail claimed but never committed).
- KpiHistory-001: add an in-flight guard to the recorder sample tick.
- ScriptAnalysis-001: harden the trust analyzer's TPA-absent fallback (resolve
forbidden anchors in the minimal reference set; warn on degraded mode) — anchors
added to validation references only, never the compile gate.
(InboundAPI-026 left to the feat/ipsen-movein effort per owner decision.)
