F1: deploy/wonder-app-vd03/appsettings.Site.json (outside git, WP1.2's
StartupValidator gate applies live on next install/upgrade) was missing the
now-required AuditLog:SiteWriter:DatabasePath, added pointing at
E:\ApiInstall\ScadaBridge\site\data\auditlog.db alongside the file's
existing SiteEventLog/LocalDb paths; scanned deploy/ for other Site-role
appsettings with the same gap (none) and confirmed wonder does not pin
LocalDb:Replication:MaxBatchSize (F2 doesn't apply there).
F2: re-pin an explicit LocalDb:Replication:MaxBatchSize=64 on docker/site-a
node-a and node-b. MaxBatchBytes (2 MB default) only bounds the wire
message via the per-message split in SyncSession.PumpLoopAsync;
MaxBatchSize separately bounds the DB read page in
OplogStore.ReadBatchAboveAsync/SnapshotStreamer, which materializes the
whole page into memory before that split runs. Left at the 500 default, a
reconnect drain of worst-case config_json rows could transiently allocate
~35 MB per read even though every wire message stayed within budget.
Updated the CLAUDE.md LocalDb bullet to stop implying the row cap is fully
redundant with the byte budget (topology-guide.md has no matching claim).
F3: StoreAndForwardService's observer-queue onDropped callback logged a
Warning per dropped item, flooding logs at sweep rate for a stuck observer
with a large queue. LogObserverQueueDrop now logs once immediately on the
first drop of an episode, then throttles to at most one rollup Warning per
minute while drops continue, reporting the count dropped since the last
log; the cumulative ObserverQueueDroppedCount counter is unaffected.
Extended StoreAndForwardServiceTests with
ObserverQueue_ManyDropsInOneEpisode_LogsExactlyOneWarning, which floods the
bounded queue and pins exactly one drop-related Warning log for the
episode via a small CapturingLogger test double.
dotnet build ZB.MOM.WW.ScadaBridge.slnx: 0 warnings, 0 errors.
dotnet test StoreAndForward.Tests: 134/134 passed.
dotnet test Host.Tests: 490/490 passed.
WP2.6 (arch-review remediation, cross-cutting misc):
- SiteExternalSystemRepository: name/ID-indexed ExternalSystemDefinitionCache replaces
the fetch-all + reverse-map scan on every by-ID/method lookup; loaded once per
redeploy, invalidated by DeploymentManagerActor after HandleDeployArtifacts applies
external-system changes. Static JsonSerializerOptions for method-list parsing.
- Inbound API: short-TTL ApiMethodCache fronts the per-request ApiMethod repository
fetch; invalidated by name via the existing ScriptArtifactChangeSubscriber/
IScriptArtifactChangeBus pipeline, self-healing via TTL for changes the bus
doesn't cover (e.g. Management API edits).
- StoreAndForward: the cached-call audit-observer queue — the one unbounded channel
left in the system — is now bounded (ObserverQueueCapacity, default 10,000) with
DropOldest overflow and a dropped-notification counter.
- SiteStreamManager: alarm state changes now travel a dedicated publish
source/broadcast hub, isolated from the (far higher-volume) attribute path, so an
attribute storm can no longer evict a pending alarm transition; the alarm hand-off
queue is bounded with a drop counter surfaced on the site health report
(SiteStreamAlarmDropCount via the new SiteStreamAlarmDropReporter), and publishing
is skipped entirely at zero subscribers on either path.
- CLI ManagementHttpClient: explicit 30s HttpClient.Timeout on the shared
construction (was the 100s framework default), overridable via
SCADABRIDGE_HTTP_TIMEOUT_SECONDS.
Deviation: the failback-probe heartbeat item is NOT included — its only viable
surface (CentralChannelProvider.cs / heartbeat consumers) lives entirely in the
Communication project, explicitly off-limits to this work package this phase.
Tests: SiteRuntime.Tests (550), InboundAPI.Tests (278), StoreAndForward.Tests (133),
CLI.Tests (390), HealthMonitoring.Tests (97) — all green after full solution build.
Tasks 5 and 6 of the Phase 2 plan, committed together because their test
fallout is entangled — several fixtures construct both stores.
StoreAndForwardStorage and SiteStorageService now take ILocalDb. Connections
come from ILocalDb.CreateConnection(), which hands out an already-open,
pragma-configured connection carrying the zb_hlc_next() UDF the capture triggers
call; a raw connection would lack the UDF and every write to a replicated table
would fail closed. Deleted with the connection strings: S&F's
EnsureDatabaseDirectoryExists and its per-open busy_timeout pragma, and the site
service's BusyTimeoutFloorSeconds normalization — LocalDb owns all of it now.
DI: AddSiteRuntime's string overload is gone (nothing left to supply), so the
Host calls the no-arg form. ScadaBridge:Database:SiteDbPath and
StoreAndForwardOptions.SqliteDbPath survive only as the migrator's source
locations in Tasks 8/9.
Two things the plan did not anticipate, both worth reading:
1. FOUND A REAL LATENT DEFECT, from Phase 1, now fixed. The plan assumed
directory creation simply moved to LocalDb along with file ownership. It did
not: the LocalDb library never creates the parent directory, and
SqliteLocalDb opens the file eagerly in its constructor — so a missing
directory is a hard boot failure ("SQLite Error 14: unable to open database
file"), not a degraded start. The default site config points at the RELATIVE
path ./data/site-localdb.db, so any site node without a pre-existing data/
directory fails to boot. The docker rig escapes only because its volume mount
happens to create /app/data — a coincidence that would have hidden this until
a bare-metal or fresh deployment. This has been latent since Phase 1 made
LocalDb:Path required; deleting S&F's EnsureDatabaseDirectoryExists here
would have widened it. Re-established the guarantee at the layer that now
owns the path (SiteLocalDbDirectory.Ensure, called before AddZbLocalDb) and
pinned it with SiteLocalDbDirectoryTests. Non-vacuity is not assumed: two
tests written against the wrong assumption failed with exactly this
SQLite Error 14 before the fix existed.
2. Test fallout was ~7x the plan's estimate. The plan named "fixtures" in one
project; the constructor change actually reaches 40 files across 7 test
projects, and most used Mode=Memory;Cache=Shared — which LocalDb has no
equivalent for, so every one had to move to a real temp file. Rather than
copy the Phase 1 TestLocalDb fixture into 7 projects, added a shared
tests/ZB.MOM.WW.ScadaBridge.TestSupport library (not a test project) so the
WAL-sidecar cleanup and the "real, not stubbed" rationale live in one place.
Retargeted rather than deleted, in both directions: the S&F WAL test now asserts
against the LocalDb-backed store (WAL genuinely is LocalDb's job), while the
directory-creation test moved to Host.Tests (that guarantee is NOT LocalDb's).
SiteStorageServiceTests.Initialize_EnablesWalJournalMode got the same treatment.
DeploymentManagerMediumFindingsTests induced a persistence failure via an
unopenable path, which no longer reaches the assertion since the fixture now
throws first; it induces the same failure shape via an uninitialized store.
Verified: full solution build 0 warnings; SiteRuntime 532, Host 318,
AuditLog 355, ExternalSystemGateway 142, HealthMonitoring 97,
StoreAndForward 153 — 1597 passed, 0 failed.
