An AVEVA Full raw read leads with a row stamped at the query start (the value in
effect, Quality=133, or a no-data NULL row); it was returned as a stored sample.
Raw reads now use the #681 classification (RawAggregateReader.RequestStartFor /
IsWindowSample — one authority, by timestamp, since a stored NULL looks the same
on the wire): request from 1 ms early with NumValuesPerNode + 16 rows, keep rows
at or after StartTime, drain the whole stream. A full page still holds exactly
the cap, so #669 paging/resume/tie-cluster reads are unchanged; a margin that
swallows the allowance fails the node rather than ending paging early.
ReturnBounds is not plumbed on any backend (documented).
AVEVA answers one extra row for the interval before the window; it was mapped as
a result stamped before StartTime (N+1 values). Rows whose interval lies outside
the requested span (either direction) are now dropped after the drained stream.
An Uncertain (opc 64-191) interval kept no value (opc >= 192 was the only data
test); it now carries its value as UncertainDataSubNormal | Calculated.
Docs: AVEVA's TWA excludes NULL-gap time while the SQL backends bridge it;
end-to-end per-interval values also need historiangw#27.
The window-bounded pick joins (4a3b1256) let the optimizer choose, under
understated statistics, a nested-loops RANGE seek over the window with the pick
time as a residual, once per bucket (O(buckets x window rows)); the cached plan
was then reused for wide reads: gate 9 1d@1min 20 s, here 47 s / 3.6M reads.
Each pick join now carries WITH (FORCESEEK (PK_Sample (TagId, SourceTimeUtc))):
an exact-key seek on both columns per bucket under any statistics, and no
hash/merge join over the tag's history can exist (forcing one is error 8622), so
the window bound is dropped from the join. Output identical (EXCEPT both ways,
fwd/rev, incl. a mixed Double/Int64/Boolean/String/DateTime/outage tag).
Measured (6M-row tag + 86k mixed-kinds tag; ms / logical reads), understated
stats: 1d@1min 47,223/3.6M -> 253/25.6k; mixed 1d@1min 20,164/1.66M -> 137/24k;
accurate stats: 1d@1min 121 -> 160 ms, 1d@1h 79 -> 117 ms. Rejected: OUTER
APPLY TOP(1) FORCESEEK (identical), OPTION (RECOMPILE) (still 20 s under the bad
stats, and a compile per read).
StartEndJoinBackTests rewritten: understated statistics + compile-small/reuse-wide
(18,645 reads; the merged query read 1,645,845 / 23 s and failed it), accurate
statistics with 300k history rows either side (22,616), forced HASH/MERGE
refused (8622 — also failed against the merged query).
Docs: perf table + explanation; SDK-parity N2 (*ActualTime Calculated bit) and
N3 (Good String => BadAggregateInvalidInputs, SDK skips it).
- SqlServer StartEnd join-back: every pick join also carries the window predicate
(forward >= @start AND < @end, reverse > @start AND <= @end). Keyed on the pick
time alone a hash/merge/adaptive join read the tag's whole history (review:
43,657 vs 361 logical reads), and parameter sniffing reused that plan for every
tag. Forced OPTION (HASH JOIN), 1d@1h on 6M rows: 152,524 -> 6,756 reads.
- Usable picks (x/y) re-check the exact u predicate in the join, so a concurrent
HistoryUpdate Replace that turned the picked sample Bad/Empty reads as absent
(BadNoData), never a Bad row's value under Delta.
- StartEndJoinBackTests (integration): 300k history rows either side of a 1 h
window, forced HASH and MERGE joins, results identical to the unhinted plan and
Start/End correct, session logical reads < 1,000 (183 bounded; 8,055 with the
bound removed — the test fails then).
- TagIndexTests: the refused-ADD-INDEX test asserts the Warning naming the ALTER.
- Historian.md: re-measured table incl. long-history windows (output identical by
EXCEPT both ways in all 7 cases) and the forced-join read counts.
Start/End/Delta: one GROUP BY computes the counts and each bucket's four pick
times (MIN/MAX SourceTimeUtc, any quality and usable); each pick's columns are
then fetched by a seek on the clustered key (TagId, SourceTimeUtc). Replaces the
windowed ROW_NUMBER form (live-gate 8 F1), whose four window sorts spilled.
Output identical (EXCEPT both ways empty, 6M rows, forward + reverse incl. a
sub-microsecond reverse start). 6M rows / 30 days, avg of 3 x 2 rounds:
30d@1h 18.6-31.7 s -> 3.4 s (reverse 18.1-29.9 s -> 3.4-5.2 s)
7d@1d 5.2-6.1 s -> 0.8 s
1d@1min 0.31-0.40 s -> 0.16 s (1d@7min reverse 0.46 -> 0.12 s)
The seeks are separate reads within one statement: under READ COMMITTED a
HistoryUpdate delete between the aggregate and the seek nulls that pick; the
null-tolerant reader (2ceed561) makes that bucket's Start/End/Delta BadNoData,
transiently. Unit test pins it; documented in the query remarks + Historian.md.
QuestDB single-scan StartEnd unchanged.
- Bootstrapper: an ALTER ... ADD INDEX refused up front (e.g. no DDL rights)
logs a Warning and lets the bootstrap succeed (the index is optional); a
WAL-apply failure remains unobserved, like the TTL ALTER — documented.
Integration test (VARCHAR tag => refused ALTER) fails with the catch removed.
- Historian.md: a dominant tag can read ~20% slower on long windows (single-
threaded index scan vs parallel JIT filter); O3 writes rewrite index files;
sample_modified.tag / event.source deliberately not indexed, and why.
- CLAUDE.md: the concurrent-HistoryUpdate-delete caveat on the range-first order.
QuestDB: {p}sample.tag is now SYMBOL INDEX. The processed-read data-range
lookups (EarliestSample / LatestSample) were partition scans of the unindexed
symbol; on 53.6M rows / 120 tags / 61 daily partitions the indexed seeks are
1-1.5 ms warm / 2-4 ms cold whatever the tag's history (unindexed: up to 11 ms
warm, 14 ms cold; cost grew with the table). The bootstrapper adds the index to a
pre-#683 table (ALTER ... ADD INDEX, a WAL txn, idempotent, ~3 s for 68M rows);
AutoCreateSchema=false only logs the statement. Disk +~12%; write apply time
within noise; main per-sample/raw/time-weighted queries unchanged or faster.
Rejected by measurement/analysis: bounded existence probes (still full scans
when a side is absent), LATEST ON (slowest unindexed), per-tag first/last side
table (cannot track TTL drops or deletes INSERT-only).
Both backends now read the data range before the bucket statement: an append
racing the read reaches the buckets but not the range, so it can no longer
produce a Good Count of 0 for an interval that has samples.
Tests: TagIndexTests (new-table index, bound-param seek uses the index,
tombstones excluded / outage marker counted, pre-#683 migration with identical
processed results across 10 aggregates x 4 windows x both directions).
- #682: ServedAggregates (ten raw-evaluated per-sample + TimeAverage/Total) replaces the placeholder
AggregateModeMapper.Served; NativeAggregates is derived from the mapper's switch. The Gateway
expectations in AggregateModeMapperTests, HistorianBackendRegistryTests and
AdvertisedAggregateFunctionsWireTests move to the 12-member set (the wire tests' 'not served by
Gateway' example is now TimeAverage2).
- #684: RawBucketAccumulator applies the SQL backends' Good-only value columns (Avg/Min/Max/Sum and
the ActualTime extreme over Good numeric samples), UncertainMin/UncertainMax over Uncertain numeric
samples, and GoodNonNumeric. The parity oracle carries the #684 InMemoryRows and the DenseUncertain /
UncertainBeyond / UncertainText datasets.
Average, Count, Minimum, Maximum, Range, Start, End, Delta and Minimum/MaximumActualTime are evaluated
on the Gateway backend from forward ReadRaw reads with BucketPlan + AggregateEvaluator, so Gateway
matches SqlServer/QuestDB exactly (values, status bits, interval-start stamps, #677 reverse).
- Window read [start - 1 ms, end] so AVEVA's initial-value row never lands in a bucket; a pre-window
row proves earlier data only with a non-Bad OPC quality (histsdk puts a value on every NULL row).
- Earlier data otherwise from a 2-row [1970, start) probe; later data from a 2-row [end, now+1d]
look-ahead; both ignore rows stamped at their query start/end.
- No gateway stream is ever abandoned (a client-side cancel makes the gateway evict its shared
historian session); past ServerHistorian:MaxTimeWeightedRawRows the bounded stream is drained, then
BadTooManyOperations. The gateway's max_values-ceiling InvalidArgument maps to the same limit; a
caller cancellation is not a backend fault.
- TimeAverage/Total stay AVEVA-native (no prior-sample read for exact Part 13 bounds), now stamped with
the interval start (PENDING the live leg: histsdk's tail+43 start_time field is unverified) and
carrying the Calculated bits.
- Served set: GatewayHistorianDataSource.ServedAggregates (12). Live AVEVA leg open (VPN).
- Average/Minimum/Maximum/Range/*ActualTime refuse (BadAggregateInvalidInputs) only a GOOD
String/DateTime sample (new GoodNonNumericCount / good_non_numeric_count column); an Uncertain
one is skipped and makes the min/max family Uncertain, matching the SDK (Average skips it,
ComputeMinMax flags the uncastable value). Delta keeps its usable-sample refusal.
- ProcessedConformance: an Uncertain value above the Good maximum (pins UncMax/unc_max through
the real SQL) and an Uncertain String through the real SQL.
- The_uncertain_dataset_is_not_vacuous also proves the min/max STATUS discrimination.

Part 13 defines Average/Minimum/Maximum/Range/*ActualTime over Good raw values
(independent of TreatUncertainAsBad) and the SDK's calculators skip Uncertain values
under the server's TreatUncertainAsBad=false. SqlServer/QuestDB value columns now use
the good flag (g) instead of usable (u); new UncMin/UncMax columns feed the Part 13
Minimum/Maximum/Range status rule (Uncertain on a Bad sample or an Uncertain value
beyond the Good extreme -- the SDK applies only the Bad half). An Uncertain-only
interval is BadNoData. Uncertain-bearing parity datasets (in-memory + real SQL) match
the SDK unmasked; the beyond-extreme divergence is pinned explicitly.

ServerCapabilities/AggregateFunctions (i=2997) is Part 5's list of every
aggregate the server supports, and live AggregateFilter subscriptions still
compute all 37 SDK aggregates, so it keeps the SDK's full set; only i=11201
follows the backend. A null SupportedAggregates is treated as the interface
default (all) by both the advertisement and HistoryRead-Processed (it used to
NRE inside the batch). Docs: i=2997/i=11201 split and the boot window.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
IHistorianDataSource.SupportedAggregates (default: every HistoryAggregateType)
is the one authority for both ServerCapabilities/AggregateFunctions (i=2997) and
HistoryServerCapabilities/AggregateFunctions (i=11201) and for the up-front
BadAggregateNotSupported in HistoryRead-Processed. Gateway declares
AggregateModeMapper.Served (4), SqlServer/QuestDB AggregateFamilies.Served (17),
Null none. Only the folder references are trimmed; the SDK's calculator
factories stay so live AggregateFilter subscriptions keep working.

QuestDB Start/End/Delta reads of a tag being written intermittently failed
BadHistoryOperationUnsupported (InvalidCastException: Column 'ts_3' is null):
the StartEnd query referenced its CTE four times and QuestDB opens a table
reader per reference, so a row committed between two of them was counted but
not picked. MinimumActualTime/MaximumActualTime had the same race and returned
a value-less Good.
(a) SQL
- QuestDB StartEnd: one scan, one GROUP BY — first()/last() for the
any-quality picks, arg_min/arg_max keyed on the usable rows' time for the
usable picks (no str_value: arg_min has no VARCHAR form; only Delta reads
them). Byte-identical output to the old query on a 1M-row tag, ~15% faster.
- SqlServer StartEnd: one windowed pass + conditional MAX (was five CTE
references); identical output, 1.4-3x faster.
- ActualTime kept on both backends: every single-scan form measured 1.2-2.4x
slower; its inconsistency is absorbed by (b).
(b) Defence in depth on both backends
- ReadBucket takes DbDataReader and reads absent picks as null
(ReadStoredOrNull) instead of throwing.
- AggregateEvaluator: Delta with a missing first/last usable pick and
ActualTime with a missing extreme are BadNoData (were BadAggregateInvalidInputs
/ a value-less Good); Start/End with no pick already were.
- Unit tests (Sql.Common evaluator, QuestDb + SqlServer mappers over a
DataTableReader) fail with the guards removed.
LiveWriteReadRaceStressTests (QuestDB integration, opt-in via
HISTORIAN_QUESTDB_STRESS_SECONDS, Category=SlowUnit): single-row writer vs
4 tight-loop readers. Old code: 6 faults in ~105k reads; new: 0 in 106k.
Docs: Historian.md QuestDB processed-read note; F2 (Min/Max on the interval
start: SDK raw, ours Calculated) and F3 (integer tags: SDK casts interpolated
values to the integer type, ours Double) added to the SDK-parity deviations.
Count: Good samples only, value-based status (all Bad => generic Bad), 0/Good on an
empty interval inside the tag's data range [first, last] (both directions).
Start/End: the raw first/last sample of any quality (own value, status, timestamp).
Delta: Uncertain only when the interval's first or last sample is not usable.
Forward end-of-data Partial (SDK m_endOfData, earlier edge inclusive) for every
per-sample aggregate but Average (PercentGood/Bad left to lane A).
Backends push down first/last-any-quality columns and fetch the tag's data range
(earliest <= window end, latest >= window start) only when NeedsDataRange.
SDK parity masks for Start/End/Delta/Count removed; new parity datasets.
TimeAverage2/Total2: the interval the data ends inside with no non-Bad time
before its last sample (comms-loss recovery, a single sample) answers that
sample's value (Total2 0), Uncertain + Partial, instead of Bad/BadNoData —
as the SDK. Parity datasets RecoveryEnds, OutageLast, BoolSwitch with
documented masks; ProcessedConformance's reverse TA/Total mask narrowed to
the later-edge-sample interval. Docs: report-by-exception consequence,
outage-last and Boolean differences; CLAUDE.md historian bullet.
TimeAverage/Total: Uncertain when a Bad value is skipped, an Uncertain value
is used, the value is extrapolated or the interval is not covered; an
interval wholly inside an outage bridges (Uncertain); Total integrates only
the covered part. TimeAverage2/Total2 stop at the end of the data (Partial,
then BadNoData). PercentGood/PercentBad become duration-based and move to
the time-weighted family (now subject to MaxTimeWeightedRawRows). Reverse
reads set Partial on the interval holding the latest sample when nothing
follows (SDK m_startOfData). Parity tests gain end-of-data and outage
datasets; pre-existing #680 masks removed.
F1: the SDK applies its m_startOfData Partial rule to forward reads only; ours
now does too (AggregateEvaluator.EvaluateAll + TimeWeightedAggregator). New
reverse late-start parity tests through the SDK oracle (unit) and real SQL
(conformance, both backends).
F2: AggregateEvaluator.NeedsEarliestSample — the earliest-sample query runs
only for forward reads of aggregates other than Average, and is bounded by
the window end (SqlServer < @end, QuestDB ts < $2).
F3: per-sample SDK parity extended to Range, Start, End, Delta, Min/Max
ActualTime and PercentGood/Bad (oracle maps StatusAggregateCalculator);
pre-existing definitional differences masked and marked #680.

- HistoryUpdate Primary gate now reads IHistoryUpdateRoleView (PrimaryGatePolicy.ShouldServeHistoryUpdate):
the data-plane verdict but CLOSED until this node's first redundancy snapshot, so both pair nodes cannot
accept in the pre-join boot window. Single nodes open on their own singleton's first snapshot; admin-only
nodes register no view => no gate. DriverHostActor publishes it at every Primary-verdict publish point.
- SqlServer v1: the updater throws NotSupportedException on every arm; the node manager maps it to a
node-level BadHistoryOperationUnsupported (was per-item under a Good node for UpdateData/DeleteAtTime).
HistoryWrite bit still advertised on v1 (not knowable at materialise time) — documented.
- The update plan is evaluated before the Primary gate: an unservable request (Remove, IsDeleteModified,
not historized, no updater) is BadHistoryOperationUnsupported off-Primary, not BadInvalidState.
- Local-kind SourceTimestamp converted to UTC before the future-skew compare and sent as UTC.
- Hosted-service wiring extracted to BuildHistoryUpdatePosture and tested (gate source, skew, clock).
- Docs: Historian.md (boot window, ordering, node-level v1, HistoryWrite bit), CLAUDE.md.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
- IHistorianDataSource.SupportsReverseEvents (default false; SqlServer/QuestDB true; Gateway/Null declare false).
The node manager checks it BEFORE calling the source: an end-only capped events read becomes reverse only on
a supporting backend (Gateway, the default, keeps the pre-#675 forward [MinValue, EndTime) paging), and an
explicit reverse read on a non-supporting backend is BadHistoryOperationUnsupported without a call.
- Removed the broad catch (NotSupportedException) in the events path: a NotSupportedException from inside a
backend is now logged as a backend fault (Error), not an 'unsupported' Warning.
- Null declares the reverse overload itself; guard test: every production IHistorianDataSource declares both
the reverse overload and the capability (positive-control scan of all four backends).
- Conformance: capability reported + oversized reverse tie cluster (forward over-fetch reversed == reverse
read order; capped reverse read stopping inside the cluster flags truncation) on SqlServer + QuestDB.
- docs/Historian.md: end-only capped events read is backward on SqlServer/QuestDB, forward on Gateway.
- BucketPlan: reverse processed reads anchored at the later time for every
aggregate: window (end, start], partial interval earliest, results stamped
with the later edge, latest first (SDK CreateSlice/GetTimestamp/backward
GetValues). SqlServer adds @bucketAdjustTicks + flips the window predicate;
QuestDB binds BucketBaseUnixTicks. IndexOf is the C# statement of the math.
- Partial bit on the interval the tag's data starts inside (SDK m_startOfData),
every aggregate but Average; per-sample reads fetch the earliest sample.
- Node manager: non-default client AggregateConfiguration =>
BadAggregateConfigurationRejected per node (ServerAggregateConfiguration,
pinned to the SDK AggregateManager defaults).
- GatewayTagProvisioner sends IntegralDivisor = 1.
- SDK parity oracle (Opc.Ua.Server calculators) in unit + both backends'
conformance suites, forward and reverse; remaining divergences documented.
- docs/Historian.md + CLAUDE.md release note (client-visible).
- IHistorianDataSource.ReadEventsAsync(..., bool reverse, ...) overload: reverse = Part 11 window (lo, hi]
newest-first by (time, id) DESC. Default forwards forward reads and throws NotSupportedException for
reverse (Null); Gateway refuses explicitly (ascending-only stream). Server answers
BadHistoryOperationUnsupported instead of silently returning the earliest N ascending.
- SqlServer / QuestDB serve reverse natively (ORDER BY time DESC, id DESC + TOP/LIMIT).
- Node manager: reverse event reads page with continuation points; direction stored in the cursor
(HistoryContinuationState.Reverse) so a resume continues in the cursor's direction; reverse tie clusters
over-fetched forward and sliced from the newest end (SliceTieCluster(reverse:)); end-only reads with a
cap page backward from EndTime (mirrors raw).
- Resumed event pages over-fetch by the boundary skip, so every non-final page is a full cap page.
- Tests: node-manager reverse paging (ties, clusters, coarse resolution, overfetch bound, resume
direction both ways, end-only, unsupported backend); shared EventReadConformance on SqlServer +
QuestDB; over-the-wire reverse paging; offline Gateway pin of the UTC DateTime.MaxValue bound through
the published client's proto conversion (in-process gRPC capture) and FILETIME.
- docs/Historian.md event paging section.
- HistoryUpdate items with SourceTimestamp > now + ServerHistorian:HistoryUpdateMaxFutureSkew
(default 1 day, <=0 disables) => BadOutOfRange in the node manager (every backend, never sent);
clock injected via OtOpcUaNodeManager.Clock (host TimeProvider).
- HistoryUpdate is Primary-only: off-Primary => BadInvalidState per node, after authorization,
same IDriverPrimaryRoleSource verdict as the native-ack gate; HistoryRead ungated.
- SqlServer: base schema requirement back to v1; SupportsModifiedTrail (v>=2). On v1 with
AutoCreateSchema=false: writes/reads/events/retention work, modified reads + HistoryUpdate =>
BadHistoryOperationUnsupported with nothing sent, retention skips SampleModified, one Warning per boot.
- QuestDB integration test pinning wall-clock TTL (far-future row evicts only partitions older
than the TTL by the wall clock), with a positive control.
- Docs: Historian.md, Configuration.md, security.md, CLAUDE.md (incl. QuestDB retry duplicates,
#674.4 anonymous-readable trail with ACL off, #674.5 not implemented).
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
- HistoryModifiedValue gains explicit SourceTimeUtc (SqlServer + QuestDB populate it); the node manager's resume cursor uses it instead of the prior value's nullable source timestamp (MinValue for inserts).
- ACL test now uses a trail-returning data source and asserts Good + data on the allow leg.
- Node-manager tests: end-only backward open-ended paging, reverse resume cursor, null-prior cursor.
- QuestDB updater logs a Warning (tag + time range) when a sample write fails after its trail rows landed.
- docs/Historian.md: rolling-upgrade window, IDENTITY-vs-commit ordering, QuestDB cross-node ModifiedId clock ordering.
Every HistoryUpdate a SQL backend applies now leaves a modification trail
(prior value, principal, Part 11 update type, modification time), and
HistoryReadRaw with IsReadModified=true serves it as HistoryModifiedData.
- Core: HistoryUpdateContext threaded into all three IHistorianDataUpdater
methods; IHistorianDataSource.ReadModifiedAsync (default NotSupported =>
BadHistoryOperationUnsupported on Gateway/Null); HistoryModified* contracts.
- SqlServer: schema v2 (002_sample_modified.sql, RequiredVersion=2, docs copy);
trail written by OUTPUT ... INTO on the same MERGE/DELETE statement, so a
failed update leaves no audit row; retention purges SampleModified per tag on
the source-time cutoff; ReadModifiedAsync keyed on (SourceTimeUtc, ModifiedId).
- QuestDB: append-only {prefix}sample_modified (TTL like samples), trail row
written BEFORE the change (orphan-on-crash, never an untracked change);
existence reads now carry the prior value; ReadModifiedAsync.
- Node manager: modified reads dispatch + page via the #669 continuation store
(HistoryContinuationState gains HistoryCursorKind + LastModifiedId), gated by
the existing HistoryRead decision; session principal / key id passed to the
updater. IsDeleteModified stays unsupported.
- Client.CLI: historyread --modified.
- Tests: node-manager dispatch/paging/cursor binding/principal threading,
over-the-wire HistoryModifiedData, shared ModifiedValueConformance on both
backends, SqlServer atomicity (forced trail failure => no change) + v1->v2
upgrade + retention trail purge.
- Docs: Historian.md (Modified-value history section, schema v2 upgrade note),
security.md, Client.CLI.md, CLAUDE.md.
M1: the time-weighted family (incl. Total, formerly a pushed-down SUM) streams
raw window rows into the C# evaluator. New shared knob
ServerHistorian:MaxTimeWeightedRawRows (default 1,000,000; <=0 unbounded with a
Validate warning) flows through HistorianBackendRegistry into both providers.
The window query is capped at cap+1 (SQL Server TOP (@maxRows), QuestDB LIMIT $4);
one row past the cap throws the new Core.Abstractions
HistoryReadLimitExceededException, which the node manager maps to
BadTooManyOperations for that node. Not counted as a backend health failure;
bound rows are not counted; per-sample aggregates are not capped.
M2: reverse Interpolative is anchored at the later time (Part 13): points at
End - i*interval, emitted latest first. 10:00->09:00 @1h yields 10:00.
L1: Partial bit (0x4, = Opc.Ua.AggregateBits.Partial) on non-Bad results of a
truncated last interval (time-weighted family; per-sample family is a follow-up).
L2/L3: aligned with the SDK AggregateCalculator.GetTimeBasedStatusCode
(decompiled from Opc.Ua.Server 1.5.378.106): TreatUncertainAsBad=false counts
Uncertain time (Uncertain samples, held-into-outage, extrapolation) as Good
time; data but no non-Bad time => generic Bad (0x80000000); BadNoData only
when there is no data at all. Consequence: a live tag's latest interval reads
Good (documented).
L5: release note no longer claims Total matches the Gateway Integral exactly
(AVEVA's divisor is unverified); it notes Total is now evaluated in C# and
subject to the cap.
Tests: unit (reverse Interpolative x3, Partial, Bad vs BadNoData incl. an
open-ended outage, cap helpers, SDK bit oracles); conformance (reverse
Interpolative, raw-row cap at/over/0, bounds not counted, health unaffected);
node manager BadTooManyOperations; options default + warning. Each new
behaviour falsified by mutation (aggregator x9, data-source cap checks on
both backends against the real DBs, node-manager catch).
New AggregateFamily.TimeWeighted serving TimeAverage, TimeAverage2, Total,
Total2 and Interpolative, evaluated by the shared Sql.Common
TimeWeightedAggregator for both SQL backends (identical results by
construction). HistoryAggregateType gains TimeAverage2 + Total2 (appended);
OtOpcUaNodeManager.MapAggregate maps their NodeIds. Gateway's mapper already
refuses unknown defined members => BadAggregateNotSupported per node.
Semantics (server defaults, client AggregateConfiguration ignored):
TreatUncertainAsBad=false, PercentDataBad=PercentDataGood=100,
UseSlopedExtrapolation=false. Sloped for Double/Int64, stepped for Boolean;
a usable sample followed by a Bad one is held up to the outage (AtTime rule);
stepped Uncertain extrapolation past the last sample. TimeAverage/Total use
interpolated bounding (bridge outages); TimeAverage2/Total2 exclude Bad time.
Bounding values: latest usable + latest any before start, first any + first
usable at/after end (four TOP 1 / LIMIT 1 seeks).
CLIENT-VISIBLE: Total on SqlServer/QuestDb was SUM of samples; it is now the
time-weighted integral (TimeAverage x interval seconds), matching Gateway's
Integral. Release note in docs/Historian.md.
Trade-off (deviation from the preferred hybrid pushdown, allowed by the
design): the time-weighted family is NOT pushed down. Each read streams the
window's rows plus the four bounds (SQL Server: one five-result-set batch;
QuestDB: bounds UNION ALL + window select) into the C# evaluator. Network is
O(samples in window), memory O(buckets). Writing the per-segment
interpolation/edge splitting twice in two SQL dialects and keeping them
bit-identical was judged the bigger risk; this also makes the QuestDB
lag/lead spike moot.
Tests: 35 hand-computed TimeWeightedAggregator unit cases (each of 10
implementation mutations goes red); served-aggregate pin 13 -> 17;
conformance sparse fixture (intervals wider and narrower than sample gaps)
+ an outage straddling both window edges (each of the four SQL seeks
disabled in turn goes red); node-manager NodeId mapping test.
A SIGKILLed Primary stays an unreachable-but-not-downed member until
auto-down, and the redundancy singleton usually dies with it, so the
standby's cached snapshot kept naming it Primary and nobody captured for
~30 s. DriverHostActor now holds its own ReachabilityEvent (+MemberUp)
subscription, caches the last snapshot, and excludes unreachable peers
from the historization peer-is-Primary predicate only, republishing just
the capture verdict on a reachability change. Alarm drain and the Primary
data-plane verdict are unchanged. Gated by
ContinuousHistorization:CaptureWhilePrimaryUnreachable (default true).
Tests: message-driven cases with real ReachabilityEvents (incl. a
falsification control on the drain/data-plane verdicts) plus a real
two-node cluster crash test with downing disabled.
A capped events read now pages: the source's truncation flag triggers a
session-bound cursor (time inclusive + tie skip), oversized tie clusters
are paged within via a bounded half-open over-fetch, and release/unknown/
cross-kind points behave as for Raw.
- I-1: QuestDbConnection caps Npgsql Maximum Pool Size at 24 (DefaultMaxPoolSize)
when the connection string does not set it; an explicit value is kept. The
effective value is logged once at Information.
- M-1: QuestDbTagCatalog.EnsureAsync waits for the tag table's sequenced commits
and re-checks before inserting, so it no longer overwrites a provisioner row
(unit/description) that is committed but not yet applied. Integration test
reproduces the clobber against real QuestDB (falsified).
- M-3: the pre-1970 drop Warning is rate-limited per tag (once per 10 min);
DroppedPre1970 still counts every sample.
- M-5: QuestDbHistorianProvider is IAsyncDisposable/IDisposable and disposes the
shared Npgsql pool; Program.cs registers the provider through a factory and
every seam resolves it from the container, so DI disposes it at shutdown.
- M-8, M-9: docs fixes (HistoryUpdate transaction wording; folded duplicate
HistoryUpdate paragraph). Pool-size docs updated for the new default cap.
