Media/ now holds only media-level scripts (cleaner, permissions, play_state_sync).
All arr management scripts (cleanup, discovery, sync, webhooks, release fixer) live in Arrs_Stack/.
All state/data file paths in scripts and PHP now resolve via STATE_DIR / DATA_DIR /
PERSISTENT_CONF_CACHE instead of hardcoded /boot/config/ or /tmp/ paths, so the
ecosystem works in both internal and appdata storage modes.
PHP layer (watchdog.php, partnership.php, fallback.php, monitor.php, snapshot.php,
config.php): all state reads switched to STATE_DIR constant; remote state reads use
the new vv_remote_state_cmd() helper which resolves the remote's SCRIPTS_DIR via
their varaverk.cfg before building the path.
conf_sync.sh: fixed SCRIPTS_ROOT → SCRIPTS_DIR bug on MY_CONF path; added
_remote_scripts_dir() to resolve partner's SCRIPTS_DIR before SCP pull.
fallback.php page: added controls card (PARTNERSHIP_ENABLED, FALLBACK_ENABLED,
FALLBACK_RSYNC_ENABLED toggles), status grid, and settings card.
README and Manual updated for System_Essentials, Watchdogs, Fallback, Rsync,
Media, Monitors, Orchestrators, Partnership: added new scripts (conf_sync,
conf_cache_save/restore, conf_cache_watchdog, play_state_sync, start_webhook_listener,
upgrade_webhook_handler), corrected all stale /boot/config/ state file paths to
$STATE_DIR/$DATA_DIR, noted webgui/php_fpm/mover/user_scripts scripts moved to
Plugin/unraid/System_Essentials, fixed start_webhook_listener.sh header (Node.js,
not PHP -S).
Fix discrepancies found by auditing docs against headers:
- stability_watchdog.sh: wrong variable name (STRIKES → STRIKE_LIMIT) and wrong default (2hr → 12hr) in header
- Watchdogs manual: REBOOT_WINDOW_HRS example value was 2, should be 12
- Transcodes README: transcode_cleanup/manager table said "Every 3 min", should be "Every 7 minutes"
- Tools manual: fallback_state_reset.sh still marked "not yet built" — rewrite section to reflect current script
- Tools manual: claude_startup --setup flag doesn't exist; modes were inverted — fix and add --launch
- Tools README + manual: add docker_prune_images.sh (existed but undocumented)
- Tools manual: add play_state_sync.sh --full to flag reference
- Orchestrators README: arrs_failed_stalled_recovery runs via intermediate_sync (every 4hr), not standalone every 6hr
- Plugin README: add build.sh to scripts table
- Partnership README + manual: add partnership_transfer.sh and onboard_cancel.sh to script tables and flag reference
appdata-Failover → appdata-Fallback:
All .md files updated — scripts and confs already used appdata-Fallback.
Share was renamed; docs were the only stale references.
critical_sync_maintenance.sh: */15 → */30, 96/day → 48/day:
critical_sync_maintenance.sh header, master.conf, host1/2.conf comments,
Orchestrators README, User Script Plug-in README, Partnership README/manual/script,
Docker_Essentials README/downloaders_reset.sh, Fallback README,
weekly_sync_maintenance.sh, user_script_plug-in.sh all updated.
rsync_emby_failover User Script superseded:
Emby dirty sync was already in HOST1_CRITICAL_SYNC_SHARES — it now runs inside
critical_sync_maintenance.sh every 30min alongside auth sync and partnership check.
Section in User Script Plug-in README marked for deletion from plugin.
transcode_management.sh: */3 → */7:
transcode_management.sh, transcode_manager.sh, transcode_cleanup.sh headers,
Transcodes README/manual, Orchestrators README, User Script Plug-in README,
user_script_plug-in.sh all updated.
array_start.sh → array_started.sh (bulk rename — actual file has always been
array_started.sh; docs consistently used the wrong name across 9 files)
failover.sh → fallback.sh (bulk rename — script is Fallback/fallback.sh;
docs used the old name throughout)
FAILOVER_HOST2_RUNS_FOR_HOST1_TIER1 → FALLBACK_HOST2_COVERS_HOST1_TIER1
(README.md — wrong variable name, actual vars use FALLBACK_ prefix and
COVERS_ not RUNS_FOR_)
docker_watchdog.sh attribution: "started by array_started.sh" → "called every
minute by watchdog_orchestrator.sh" (docker_watchdog is not in ARRAY_START_SCRIPTS)
server_reboot.sh shutdown sequence: step 7 "rc.docker stop" → calls
array_stopping.sh (user_scripts, fallback, rsync, mover, docker_container_stop)
Rsync manual ARRAY_START_SCRIPTS list: removed stability_watchdog and
docker_watchdog (now in watchdog_orchestrator); failover → fallback
Failover/ was renamed to Fallback/ — all script paths and README links
updated across README.md, Orchestrators README, and User Script Plug-in README.
array_start.sh → array_started.sh in Orchestrators scripts table (wrong name).
fallback_state_reset.sh: script is referenced in User Script Plug-in README
but does not exist in Fallback/. Entry updated to document it as not yet built
and provides the manual workaround (direct state file write).
Note: /mnt/user/appdata-Failover/ share path references left unchanged —
that is the actual unRAID share name on the server, not the script folder.
arr_sync.sh bidirectional union replaced the old split-ownership model.
Old: HOST1 owns Movies/TV/Music, HOST2 owns Anime — each arr manages
different shares to avoid conflicts.
New: arr_sync.sh keeps all arr databases in union. Either server can
download to any share at any time. The union is the source of truth.
Auth stack references left intact — HOST1 still owns auth config
(one-way sync to HOST2). Only media library ownership language updated.
Files changed:
README.md — server block + share annotations
Fallback/README-Fallback.md — role line + Split Source of Truth section
Orchestrators/README-Orchestrators — daily sync share comments
Rsync/Manual-Rsync.md — DEFAULT_RSYNC_OPTS comment block
Media/README-Media.md — HOST AWARENESS section
Watchdog renames and moves:
system_watchdog.sh → stability_watchdog.sh (last line of defense — reboots)
storage_watchdog.sh → Watchdogs/System/storage_watchdog.sh
webgui_restart.sh → Watchdogs/System/webgui_watchdog.sh (renamed to match folder convention)
New thin orchestrator:
Watchdogs/system_watchdog.sh — runs SYSTEM_WATCHDOG_SCRIPTS from master.conf
Sits between docker_watchdog and stability_watchdog in the orchestrator tier chain
System/ subfolder is the growth seam for future system component watchdogs
master.conf:
WATCHDOG_ORCHESTRATOR_SCRIPTS updated — storage removed, system_watchdog added as tier
SYSTEM_WATCHDOG_SCRIPTS array added — storage + webgui
server_reboot.sh:
Calls array_stopping.sh before VM shutdown for guaranteed safe array stop
Removed raw rc.docker stop and exit trap — orchestrator owns container shutdown
