Auto-prohibited ranges (#148) were previously visible only through an internal AutoProhibitedRangeCount accessor used by tests. Production operators had no way to see what the planner had learned without pulling logs or inspecting driver state. Changes: - New public record `ModbusAutoProhibition(UnitId, Region, StartAddress, EndAddress, LastProbedUtc, BisectionPending)` — operator-facing snapshot shape. Lives in the addressing assembly's logical namespace alongside the other public types. - `ModbusDriver.GetAutoProhibitedRanges()` returns `IReadOnlyList<ModbusAutoProhibition>` — a copy of the live prohibition map. Lock-protected snapshot so consumers don't race with the re-probe loop. - RecordAutoProhibition tracks first-fire vs re-fire via the dictionary insert path, leaving a hook to add structured logging once an ILogger is plumbed through (currently elided to keep the constructor minimal for testability — a future change can wire ILogger and emit a single warning per first-fire). Tests (1 new, additive to the 6 in ModbusCoalescingAutoRecoveryTests): - GetAutoProhibitedRanges_Surfaces_Operator_Visible_Snapshot — confirms the snapshot shape: empty before any failure, populated with correct UnitId/Region/Start/End/BisectionPending after a failed coalesced read, LastProbedUtc within the recent past. Docs: - docs/v2/modbus-addressing.md — new "Coalescing auto-recovery" subsection consolidates the #148/#150/#151/#152 surface in one place. Documents the diagnostic accessor + flags the in-process consumption pattern (Server health endpoints today; Admin UI when an RPC channel exists). 239 + 1 = 240 unit tests green. Caveat: the Admin UI surfacing (table render, "clear all prohibitions" button) is intentionally NOT shipped here. Admin can't reach a live ModbusDriver instance without a driver-diagnostics RPC channel that doesn't exist yet — that's a larger architectural piece. For now the data is queryable in-process by the Server's health endpoints; once an RPC channel lands, Admin can wire the existing GetAutoProhibitedRanges into a Blazor table without further driver changes.
OtOpcUa documentation
Two tiers of documentation live here:
- Current reference at the top level (
docs/*.md) — describes what's shipped today. Start here for operator + integrator reference. - Implementation history + design notes at
docs/v2/*.md— the authoritative plan + decision log the current reference is built from. Start here when you need the why behind an architectural choice, or when a top-level doc says "see plan.md § X".
The project was originally called LmxOpcUa (a single-driver Galaxy/MXAccess OPC UA server) and has since become OtOpcUa, a multi-driver OPC UA server platform. Any lingering LmxOpcUa-string in a path you see in docs is a deliberate residual (executable name lmxopcua-cli, client PKI folder {LocalAppData}/LmxOpcUaClient/) — fixing those requires migration shims + is tracked as follow-ups.
Platform overview
- Core owns the OPC UA stack, address space, session/security/subscription machinery.
- Drivers plug in via capability interfaces in
ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.Abstractions:IDriver,IReadable,IWritable,ITagDiscovery,ISubscribable,IHostConnectivityProbe,IAlarmSource,IHistoryProvider,IPerCallHostResolver. Each driver opts into whichever it supports. - Server is the OPC UA endpoint process (net10, x64). Hosts every driver except Galaxy in-process; talks to Galaxy via a named pipe because MXAccess COM is 32-bit-only.
- Admin is the Blazor Server operator UI (net10, x64). Owns the Config DB draft/publish flow, ACL + role-grant authoring, fleet status +
/metricsscrape endpoint. - Galaxy.Host is a .NET Framework 4.8 x86 Windows service that wraps MXAccess COM on an STA thread for the Galaxy driver.
