Ran every #116 gate on the local docker rig (main 2d2e9f35), with an auto-down baseline
on the same build:
- active kill: takeover 29s central / 26s site-a; standby kill: downed 29s / 26s, 0 blips;
- boot logs: no deprecation warning, [leader-auto-down] started/unreachable/DOWNING lines;
- partition past the window: accepted dual-active, restart of one side recovers;
- cold start of both pairs together: one cluster each; site-a S&F drains on the survivor.
Extra: docker pause of the active node leaves a permanent second active after unpause on
BOTH strategies (Akka.Cluster ignores ThisActorSystemQuarantinedEvent) — filed as #132.
- docker/docker-compose.leader-auto-down.yml: opt-in overlay (env override) for the central
and site-a pairs; shipped default stays auto-down.
- docker/failover-drill.sh: DRILL_PAIR (central|site-a|site-b|site-c), DRILL_ACTION
(kill|pause), sidecar probes for unpublished site health, strict rejoin + dual-active check.
- docs/plans/2026-11-12-leader-auto-down-rig-drill.md (+ raw logs), docker/README.md.
