StartDeployment read the whole config DB twice with no transaction — DraftSnapshotFactory for
the validator, then ConfigComposer for the artifact, plus clusters/nodes and Script.SourceCode
again in between. An AdminUI save landing between the two shipped an artifact the DraftValidator
never saw.
- DraftSnapshot carries ServerClusters, ClusterNodes and ApiKeys; DraftSnapshotFactory reads
every table inside one SNAPSHOT transaction on a relational provider (no-op on InMemory or
under an ambient transaction).
- ConfigComposer.Compose(DraftSnapshot) is pure over the snapshot (ordinal-sorted keys);
SnapshotAndFlattenAsync(db) delegates to it, byte-identical.
- AdminOperationsActor validates topology, estimates compile cost and composes the artifact
from the one snapshot it holds.
- Migration EnableSnapshotIsolation: ALTER DATABASE CURRENT SET ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION ON
(suppressTransaction; no model change).
Tests: the SQL Server snapshot read ignores a row committed mid-read (positive control: a later
read sees it); an edit injected between the Equipment and Tags reads is absent from the shipped
artifact and rejected by the next deploy; Compose(snapshot) == SnapshotAndFlattenAsync(db).
